CORDOVA IS A
COMFORTABLE SHIP
The steamer Cordova which
replaces the Dolphin for a trip
leaving Seattle Nov. 21. is a
comfortable vessel with big
airy staterooms affording ae
•oraodations for 60 first das*
• id tO second class passenger*
The vessel was built for mixed
'iness and js roomy and we;!
'.tied. She comes out at thi<
:ime on account of the amount
>f freight offered which the
Dolphin is unable to handle.
The Jefferson will probably
-ail from Seattle on her first

Dec. 5. In case she is not
v sdy at that time to leave the
'oriova will come out for her
and the Jefferson will then

"I have failed to comprehend
the reason for the protection
of the hair seals in Alaska."
said Capt. H arry Dorhn. who
is in charge of the army trans
port service a? St. Micheat.
"The seals kill more «a!mon
in one day than their skins are
worth. I think that the hair
seals should be killed off a=
quickly 3s possible. 3; they
destroy thousands of fish each
■■ear. Oregon and Washing
ton are taking the right «tep
in destroying the seals at the
mouth of the Columbia, and I
believe that laws should be
passed for the eradication of
the animal- in the North. The
f ir seal, which bears the only
valuable -eal skin, is scarce
in Alaska. The salmon haul
in A’a-ka depends many time1
on the ‘run’ of the seal*.”

That hordes are carnivorous
animals, when forced to if.
was demonstrated clearly in
the stampede *o the Chisana.
a- Milo CaulioJi. who return
ed recently, tells of having
Keen compelled to feed hi*
stock nothing but rabbits and
willow twig for week;. Three
f the four horses that Mr.
Saulieh took to the sr-ene of
the strike survived the ordeal
while the strength of one gave
out and the stampeder was
forced to kill him. Mr. Saulich
i- of the opinion that there are
150 head of horses in the dig
ging- a? the present time, and
all of them are suffering for
want of food, as there is ab
solutely no feed of any kind
to be had. For a time the
horses were reluctant about
eating the rabbit flesh, but
after a time they ate it w ith
apparent relish. —Fairbanks

FANCY HERRING SCARCE
While there is plenty of small}
Alaska herring in the north
suitable for the export mark?!, j
the fancy fish equired by the
SanFranciseo market is very
scarce, only a few barrels hav
irg arrived within the last
month and the small herrirg
is not wanted there. Holland
herring, however, is coming in
rather freely now, and is a
little easier in value, being
quoted at $1S. per bbl. for
milehers and -M7. for mixed.
