EXHIBITION OF NORTHERN
SCENES ON THK TKAILS
A large and appreciative audience
gathered in the N. S. A. A. hall
011 Wednesday evening te witness
the pictures which l)r. Leonard Sug
den took of the trails during the
summer leadiug into the Chisana
country, and also to hear the doctor
describe the various scenes.
The doctor was in excellent form
and handled his subjecct in a mast
erly way. At the commencement he
spoke of the great differences be
tween photograhy in the studio and
photography in the field and en
deavored to show the difficulties
and hardships that one had to put
up with especiallly in the country in
which he was taking the pictures.
The first pictures *hrown on the
screen were on the Lewis river, com
ing through Miles Canyon in a small
boat, und shooting the historic
Whitehorse rapids. Also some line
views of the White Pass steamers at
the wharf.
The pictures of the different out
fits on their way to the gold-dig
gings were certainly good, and con
sidering the circumstances under
which they were taken, the doctor
deserves great credit for his work.
The sccenes of the several gllaik")
along the way were awe-inspiring,
and one got some idea of what ir
would be to cross a glacire in the
winter time. Pictures of the trail
leadiug by way of McCarthy also
of the Scolai Pass revealed the fact
that these routes were well nigh im
passible.
"The conditions 011 tlie Whitehorse
Kluane trail", said Dr. Sugden,"wer
different altogether."
"We saw an outfit of an eight
horse team starting out for the new
camp, also several dog-teams, and
the comparative «ase ar.d comfort
with which they were travelling gav
an on-looker the impression that thi
surely is by far the safest and only
reliable way to get to the country
where the gold has been found.—
Whitehorse Star.
These interesting and exciting
views will be exhibited by Dr. Sud
den in the moving picture theater in
Skagway tonight. Children 25 cents
Adults 50 cents. Don't fail to at
tend.

Tony Dortero, - 423 Broadway
(OLl) WINDS.
When the winds blow wild from
the Arctic strand, where the snow
is piled on the frozen laud, then
we soon forget how we used to
wheeze, in the days of sweat, for
an ice-cold breeze* Oh, we don't
look to that misfit time, when we
cried, "Alack, for some snow an-1
rime!" Wh-n the winds come thru
from the Arctic shore, let us smile
a few, and then smile some more!
If some ancient grouch by the Chim
ney-place should release an "ouch"
with a gloomy face, and express a
wish for a climate ho', let us break
a dish on his dome of thought. Let
us swat him thrice with the old arm
chair, let us pile some ice on his
silvered hair. When the north winds
hiss, let us say: "Oh cripes! Such
a day as this, though it bust the
pipes, though it bring some grief
with its pesky sleet, is a big relief
after August heat!" Let us all be
gay while we're hcr° 011 earth; let
us laugh and lay with abounding
mirth, though the winds be warm
or the winds be still, though the
day brings storm, though the day
be still.—Walt Mason.
