Ao ey DUST AND NUGGETS SENT QVER THE TRAIL Two Hundred Thousand Dollars the‘ Value of One Shipment From Dawson. SKAGUAY, June 14 (via Victoria, B. C., June 18).—A shipment of gold t and nuggets estimated at 3200000 came out yesterday from Dawson over the Dyea trall. It was placed on the steamer Tartar and consigned to Victoria. It is understood that the gold belongs to the Canadian Government. Latest advices from Lake Bennett are that most of the river fleet has gotten away. Up to June 1 over 2500 bodts had been registered by the mounted police, the boats carrying an average of four persons each. Of the first 175 boats to make the start forty-one were lost, but no one was drowned. One of the Bartlett Bros.' large scows was wrecked at Tagish and the cargo was a total At White Horse the police have two_ pilots, Dickinson and and all boats shooting the required to take a pilot.

The Spanish officers who were cap- tured on Wednesday at Guantanamo Bay are reported to be on board the Marblehead. The news of the work on Wednesday | night by the Vesuvius and New Or- leans in Santiago Bay is confirmed. The Vesuvius threw shells into the water to explode the mines, while the New | Orleans engaged the fortifications | along- the shore. The Marblehead has captured a Spanish sloop in Guantanamo harbor and made eight soldiers, who were on board, prisoners. The Americans are now practically in full possession of Guantanamo Bay and the white tents of the land force present a rather imposing spectacle. There is occasional firing from the Spanish land Zorces, but it is always inefficient and of -~ importance. Day before yesterday our soldiers at Guantanamo captured a Cuban with dis- patches which he was carrying to the Spanish general. He to the Cuban commander and shot.

HE'S THE KIND. The spirit which has animated the naval militla, who have volunteered to a man for any kind of work to which they may be assigned, was well illus- trated last week by the remark of a comparatively new recruit whose family live up on the Sound. This boy, for he is just 21, joined the naval re- serves about six months ago, and his drill was the nearest approach to hard | work of anything that he had ever done. When the war came, despite the protestations of his parents, he en- | listed, and last week he was working | on the Yankee. He obtained forty-eight hours’ shore leave and went home. ‘When his mother saw him she was shocked. He was begrimed with coal | dust to such an extent that nothing but a hot bath would make him pre- | sentable. = | “Why, you are a perfect sight,” said his mother. “Can’t you get hot baths on board the boat?"” “No, of course not,” sald the boy, and he lost no time in getting one at home. Then he slept for six hours, and when he turned up for dinner he looked like himself. “I trust that you get as nice straw- | berries as these,” said the mother at | dinner. “Strawberries!” ejaculated the ama- teu tar in deep disgust. ‘“Not a straw- | berry. We get regular navy grub, and | we are glad enough to get it when we knock off work. Say, do you know what I've been doing?” & | “What have you been doing?” asked | his_mother. | “Why, I've helped to stow "n.wny eighty tohs of coal, that's what. “Merciful heavens, child! Can it be possible? To think of my son carrying coal. 1 will ask your father to have you released at once.” “No, indeed, you won't,” said the tar. “I won't take a release. We have all gone in for it, and I'm going to stick it out until the end.” ‘When his shore leave expired the Naval Reserve man left his bathtub be- hind and reported for duty again to carry coal or swab decks, as the case might be.—New York Sun. e e A HANDKERCHIEF FAD.
