SKAGWAY. Ali
On last night's train there arriv
ed- in Skagway a well known figure
la the Northland and an old time
resident of Skagway< Dyea and
Whitehorse.
Oa the first day of December
1897, Jerry Doody landed in Dyea
and from that time to this the
farthest south he ha lias been is
Skagway and now he is going *o
Vancouver and' points south for a
vacation and perflapg to engage in
business until the war is oyer.
Born in old Essex country, Massa
chusetts, Jerry, early in life "went
west." and after a time in Kansas
located n Arizona, where he joined
Uncle Sam's army in the Quarter
master department and after serv
ing several years, during which time
he look part in the capture of
Gerouimo, the famous Indian chief he
went to California and from there
to Alaska and1 the Yukon.
During his twenty one years in
the nor'h Mr. Doody hag been one
oI the most successful and skilful
photcgraoners, with headquarters
at Dawson, and has a large collec
tion of views and negatives of the
country *n almost every part con
tiguous *o the mighty Yukon river.
He nar taken wild animals of every
sort on his native heath, and his
n»«»ativev of the bands of w'ld cari
bou, bear moose and others are
worth thousands of dollars and
these he expects to use if he decides
to go into business in the States or
Canada.
Mr. Doody is a most companion
ab' man and has a fund of Btories
an. reminiscences that makes him
most eutertajning company.
He wilj leave on the Princess
Sophia tomorrow.
The train last evening brought
out. another load of interior passen
ger® who are going out for the win
ter. They come from Fairbanks.
Nenana, Ruby, Dawson and many
other prints on the Inside.
Many of the men are going out
to J-iin up and take a hand' in help
ing to win the war and others are
voLig because conditions are such
that making a living is getting too
hard. At the same time quite a
few sre only making their annual
pilgrimage to the outsdo to outfit
for next vear, some to return in the
winter and others upon the opening
of navigation next sprig.

Ou the ia8t trip of tna Jefferson,
Air. Thos. Boyd left Skagway for
Tuneau and Tenafcee Sprineg where
he will spend the winter. It i» hl»
Intention to buy or build * motor
boa^ in whicn he will DroSpect for
pearls. During- the summer 1905,
Mr. Boyd was touring the Inland
wattrj of southeastern. AlMta and
state* that he found Pearla in the
clan'9 that he dug for his food! *nd'
as pleasure trip more than any
thing els* he will follow this up and
see if these pearls have any com
merc'al value.
Mr Boyd has large mining inter
ests iu what is kiwwn as the Sev
en* r mile country, and which lies
back of and weet of £agl0 hut is
contiguous to Eagle and Forty Mile.
In speaking of this region and its
possibilities Mr. Boyd said to a
| representative of the Alaskan,
,"r'>ere are hundreds of miles of vir
gin ground along the gold belt that
(extends from California to Nome.
T;i's ael* crosses the Yukon at Daw
son, rjins tnrough Forty Mile and
from there to Fairbanks, Iditarod,
Ko«ukuk and on to Nome. It la
about forty miles wide and every
creek and river in this district c&r
r'es more or less gold. The ground
around mv district is frozen ground
and only needs a boiler and thawing
machine to make mining ©asy. There
is *>len'y of wood and there isi much
coaj which could he gotten out for
the m'ners if needed. The miners
trcre drift in winter and get out
their dumps and in summer much
ooen cut work Is done. I am min
ing op Charley river and have a
group of claims that run from 70
cents to $17.00 per foot
There are about tnree hundred
men left in there and they all make
more 'haa wage# and many of tnem
make little fortunes and go out
and nothing is heard of it. There
'ec'ors who will go in and intelli
gently and industriously Strive to
get tne metal out. Tungsten and
<3 room for thousands of good pros
ant'mony is found quite plentifully,
anj some nlatinum has been found.
