"Skagway is named from an lr.-;
dian word and means "Wiudv City."
It is an important city of South
eastern Alaska, and is the trans
fer point for the interior. The
V.'h'te Pass and Yukon railroad j
r'akes its terminal here and pass-1
engere for Atlin, Dawson, Cliis- j
ana and Tanana districts anr taken
over the White Pass trail, of earl
fame, to the headwaters of the j
mighty Yukon. A feature of inter
eat to passengers on the Humboldt
is the fact that tho railroad com
pany will operate a special excur
sion train to the summit of tho
White Pass for a very reasonable
sum for those wishing to make the
trip."
