WAR'S EFFECT FELT
BY YUKON INDIANS
Dawson—John Hawksley. sup
erintendent of Indian affair
for Yukon Territory, recently
received a letter from the T?s
lin district staling that the
dir? effect of the European
war on 'he fur mark.'t is bo ins
felt in that remote region by
the Indians. The writer slates
that the Indians find the pric
es offered them for furs >
low they can scarcely afford l
trap, and that the meagre re
turns will not permit them t<
earn Inough to continue living
on the Wh e Man's grub. They
have to forgo such h:\ur c- a
flour, sugar, and possibly to
ur tobacco. Requests are mad
for contributions from the gu
eminent.
Mr. Hawksley has ha 1 a wl
experience in this country with
Indian, covering a - jotirn ot
twenty-seven years, and under
stands the Indian nature thor
oughly. Ife has decided tlnv
the natives do not need the
White Man's luxuries, and tha
they are much more healthy
and happy when in the hills
hustling their food a- they die
be fori - me. and D
they are much more thrifty
when thrown on their own re
sources than when stall-fed on
government rations.
In accordance with this de
duction. Mr. HaVkslev is no
c i-ig to rush an expedition i.i,
to the Teslin with bonbons or
doughnuts ifjr even the in
gredient- for 1 i nnicks. lb
says that, however, the natives
-.vill be as-i-fed yvith ample al
lowances of ammunition, and
that they nr -t do the rest, lb
has applied the same rigid rub
at other point- in the Yukon
since taking charge. At Moos,
hide, near Dawson. where
many :-nce received ration
regularity, all are now garni -
thtir obvii way. with the excep
tion of a helpless native woman
of eighty years of age. One
buck appeared this week and
g y en eartriges and tot! to mak
for a band of caribou which
was reported in ‘he hill-. He :
he- made f.ra -k-. an.] if h • ge!= 1
any hackery luxuries his year
he yvi 1} hav? to convert some j
of the re-1ill- of hi- - lia-e in
to cash. The government now
pay- out about *25.000 an
nually for as-i-i.un-e o flu
Indian- of the Y r, , i and Mr.
Hawk-ley is- trying t . d.v-rt r
he -ay-, into more permanent
benefit- for them.—Ex,

RUBY’S FIRST AUTO
GOES ON PARADE
Ruby. Oct. 17—About four
! o'clock yesterday afternoon
i there ‘was some Com motion of
! Firs street, and wild Apache
! yells beginning near the Rltby
Commercial company swelled
down the street like a t-ida’
wave, until they lost themselv
es in the well-filled warehouse'
of the X. C. The scurrying of
dogs and the rubbering of
the multitudes soon told the
tale. It was Ruby’s first auto
mobile. actually running with
Chaf. Morton Adams at the
wheel. With seven men in the
car she swung around the
corner of title X. C. bridge and
was off on the government
road up t»he hill. She flew like
a duck: -lie sang like a hum
ming bird: she stopped like a
mother’s cradle and ran like a
-eared wolf. This was the first
jff?nse for several of the sour
doughs aboard, and they were
roubled with chills along the
'Pine and prickly heat every
where else. Ditches nevei
looked so deep nor telephone
poles «o big. but as she show
d no tendency to take to eithei
>f them, the passengers soor
got the ‘“thrill” and by th(
time ethey had run out .Hire
mile- and returned they were
-peed fiends. The maiden try
out was a success in ever'
way. Mr. Adams had perfec'
control of the machine at. al
time-. He has rented ‘th<
Cribb building, next to Mnu
Hoffman’s, as a garage, an.'
will limber the machine uj
with a few joyrides before lea\
ing on the maiden trip to th<
reek-. There are severa’

now. as well as some launch

W astefulness
of "Price” Buying
To save money in purchasing is a duty everyone owes *
to his business. "Price” buying, however, does not always |
mean economy. 9
A few dollars "saved” in buying a typewriter may turn out to
be many dollars wasted and make an expense of what should
have been an investment.
The higher price paid for the
L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter
is paid for the greater amount of superior work it will turn out
and its greater durability.
You will be surprised to learn what a great difference there is f
in typewriters. The cheapest is usually the most expensive.
