Baedeckers' and all the other gossip
of European travelers in the one
intense rush to get accommodations
aboard something aJloat, with des
tination New York.
On this crowd of Americans, In
cluding many important society folk
well-known professional men . and
women and just plain business peo
ple. the news of the decision of the
United States Attorney General de
< luring American boats uncondition
ally "dry" and imposing upon for
eign boats the need of disposing of
alcoholic liquors before approaching
the three-mile limit, was scheduled
to drop like a thunderbolt.
If it dropped like a thunderbolt
no one of them heard It. They were
too loudly d.scussirg whether Molly
or Pauline Anee had butter sleep
in the upper berth.
"Karly this summer, when the re
port first reached us that booze
might be taken off American ship3.
we heard a great deal of grumbling,
especially on the pail of American
clients," was the way the shipping
expert of the Pails office of a large
tourist agency pot It to Interna
tional News Service, "but now that
the thing really seems definite and
liquor drinking, at least on Ameri
can lines, has to cease at the mo
ment of em—rather than the mo
ment of de-barking nobody seems
to care."
An American, pausing in the act
of selecting one of the two reiiMin
ing cabins on a large boat, tried to
explain why it was.
'Hack home ' he said, "it seemed
like heaven to be going to e coun
try where one could order any
thing liquid under the sun fiom
cocktails to chloro'urm arid have it
dance in at once on the arm of a
smiling waiter. We licked our li^s
as we came up the gangplank. We
licked 'em again while we were
being shown 'o our stateroom, and
yet again as the Old scow sieamed
out toward the three-mile line Every
fool seemed like a degree of longi
tude.
"A few hours liter -ve stopped
licking our hps. Ve havn t licked
'em since. »\ e bnvp't tie d'd to
We have been through the cata
logue. and now it's Jtl3t as If there
were no mor? world's to conquer.
"We are nady to go back no*

wait until we <et tliuie. Iiry Ameri
ca? I'd like to hear the man who's
so wet he'd lay anything acainst

"Harking dogs never bite" hurt Its
origin in the statement thut (logs in
their wild state never burk. but howl

quired habit and. It was believed, whs
no indication of a savage temper.
"Pog-watch" is a corruption of
■"dodge-watch" and lias no relation to
dogs. In seafaring two short watches,
one from 4 o'clock to 6 aud the other
from 6 to 8 In the evening, were in
troduced to dodge the routine or [ire

RICH KENO ORE
A fleet of eleven large Yukon river
barges has been piaced In winter
quarters at Dawson, Mayo and Stew
art City, in readiness to handle tho
first silver ore shipments from Mayo1
er.rly next season. Six of the barges
are at Dawson, two at Mayo, and
tl:e others at Stewart City. They
have a total capacity of 3,000 tons.
Steamers wintering at West Dawson
and Hootalinqua *»lll handle the
barges leaving Mayo before Lake
Labarge opens.
Ore hauling from Keno Hill this
winter to Mayo Ci'v is being carried
on by Greenfield & Pickering with
large sleighs and sixty to seventy
horses, for the Keno Hill Limited.
A large caterpillar tractor is hauling
for the Tread well Yukon Company.
Several teams owned by Andy Taddie
Sam McCormick and the Yukon Gold
Company left Dawson this month for
Keno to help haul silver ore.
The coming open season will be
a time of activity among the trans
portation peopie, and their capacity
will be taxed to handle t e immense
tonnage of high grade ore from the
rich Keno Hill lode. The latest re
ports from the mines Indicate that
the output of the present year will
be two or three times that of last
year, and that prospects for a great
increase in productlun in the future
are extremely brig>i«. new rich sil
