Two floats, one representing the snow-covered moun- tains that mark the course of the ice- covered Yukon River, and the other the new City Hall, with the Goddes: of Justice and some prominent citizens, followed. During the evening's enter- tainment the members of the Verein entertained the large gathering. Table Jadders and chair pyramids were build- ed by the acrobats and many boys and girls participated in a fancy march and drill.

Once Ex- | A poorly clad young man, whose| name could not be ascertained, met | with a horrible accident last night at the Mechanics’ Pavilion. Not having | the necessary money to buy a ticket, the unfortunate fellow, together with a | number of other young men, forced | his way Into the basement. At the southerly end of the building is a | freight elevator, and the intruders started to climb the ropes attached to it, in order to reach the main floor. The unknown victim of the accident | stood close to the elevator and as it shot upward in response to a tug on the main rope by one of his companions, he started to board it. The next instant the elevator dropped, catching the stranger in the descent. His cries at- | tracted the attention of his companions who, becoming alarmed, at once noti- fied Sergeant Nash. The latter imme- | diately ran to the scene, and found the young man buried beneath the ele- vator. He was unconscious, and apparently fatally hurt. After considerable trou- | | ble the elevator was raised, and the in- | | jured boy removed to the Receiving | Hospital. | A few minutes after being placed on | ime operating table he breathed his | last. His body was subsequently sent | ‘tu the Morgue. 1 One of his. companions was James | Wilson, and lives at Fourteenth and Mission streets. “We made our way into the base- ment,” he remarked, when giving his | version of the accident, ““and being un- | | able to reach the main floor we de- | cided to try the elevator. The vietim | of the accident remained a short dis- tance behind, thinking we would meet with police interference. After one of the boys had raised the elevator | | the stranger tried to climb on to it. | Just then the elevator suddenly dropped, burying his companion be- neath it. I was told that he was from | the Potrero, but I do not know his | name.” MBI B BN G RN mIBBINNRRR Dr. Cachot has removed from 207 Taylor 10 Turk street.

Every one held his breath as the bug wandered hither and thither and as he would approach the printed name of either man of muscle his admir- ers would fairly tremble with excite- ment to see if he would crawl upon it and rest there, as it was considered a cinch that the one favored by the little insect would be the winner in the even- ing’s battle. The bug finally settled upon the name of Choynski. and a great shout went up from that gentleman’s support- ers at the happy omen. Then littie rings were drawn on the paper, numbered from one to twenty, and all hands stood round to watch and see into which one the bug would crawl, as that was to give the bettors a sure thing on the number of rounds the fight would last. The bug took its time but finally settled on the one numbered eleven, and the crowd | started off to Harry Corbett’s to get their money in on the occult tip they had re- | ceived.

One of the most striking scenes of life and seafaring interest ever beheld in the city was that presented at the Washington street wharf yesterday when the Humboldt arrived, having made one of the quick- est trips on record to Skaguay and return. X The wharf has for several days presented the strange picture of three hundred tons of freight piled almost sky high, awaiting the ar- rival of the steamer from the land of gold. and fifteen passengers awaiting the opportunity of embarkation, and all arrangements have been made for the northbound steamer to sail again to-morrow, with the prospect of arriving at Skaguay in about It was a unique sight to behold the strange combination of va- lises, sleds, trunks, boxes and packages of canvas that constituted the three hundred tons of freight on the wharf. for hours watching for the arrival of the belated steamer, and when she arrived there were cheers of joy from many throats. Old men and young men, as well as women and children of all ages, had stood for many hours, watching for the arrival of the steamer. It is estimated that about 5 per cent of the passengers who will g0 to-morrow are women in search of their fortunes in the far north. They go with all kinds of ideas of prospects, but most of them feel In some strange way that the reports are only a partial statement of the truth pertaining to the untold wealth that is still hid in the hills of the Alaska wilds awaiting the cunning researches of practical min- ers and about to add to the mineral wealth of the world.
