WORLD-FAMOUS HUNTER
WAS KNOWN IN DAWSON
Captain Frederick Courtenay Selous, who
was killed recently in South Africa, where
lie was an officer in the British forces op
erating against the Germans, was in ukon
territory in 1H0S, and visited Dawson, says
the News of that city. He hunted caribou,
mountain sheep and moose on the Pelly
river and m the Ogilvie range, northeast of
'Duwtjon. Chark y Gage, one of the veteran
White Bass stage driwrs, was on the trip
with Selous tint; summer as one of the
guides, and r*< aHs with pleasure his as
sociations with the famous hunter.
"Selous," say. Gage, "was delighted with
this country as a field for hunting big
game, and he took out some splendid speci
mens of heads and horns of moose, can
turn and mountain sheep. He ahvays was
careful not to slaughter any game animals
wantonly or needlessly, and when he did
kill one he saw that the meat was con
sumed by his own party or given to miners,
trappers or others in the vicinity, who al
ways were glad to get it and keep it for
food for themselves and dogs.
"Many a night Selous would regale us
with tales of his exciting adventures. He
told of having killed many lions, tigers and

elephants. He considered the tiger a far
more dangerous brute to kill than the lion,
and told of a number of the beasts that
had fallen beneath his aim. He had com
paratively few tiger scalps to his score as
compared to the number of lion trophies.
“In camp Captain Selous was the best
of company. He had traveled so much in
the open that he knew exactly how to make
the most of camp life and how to conduct
matters so that all members of the party
would be on the best of terms.
“He carried when here one of the finest
hunting guns ever made. It had been
made to order according to his own sug
gestions. and was the product of one of
the big firearms companies. It was so con
structed that it was adaptable to shooting
anything from a humming bird to an ele
phant or a tiger. The breach was large,
and the chamber at the butt of the barrel
so arranged that various sized false cores
could be inserted, thus adapting the breach
to the accommodation of any size of ride
or shotgun shell. It was a great all-round
weapon for meeting any of the game family,
and Selous knev. how to use it and when.
Captain Selous was 65 years of age at
the time of his death.
DAVE DUNBAR BOOSTiNG
TOLOVANA COUNTRY
Without wishing to detract from any of
the other towns in Alaska, and not as a
knock to other camps that are struggling
along under difficulties, Dave Dunbar of
fers the opinion that the Tolovana district
is the best in all Alaska today, says the
Fairbanks News-Miner of March 23. He
has just returned from a business trip to
that town, and he reports that it is re
markable the amount of business that is
being done and the amount that is antici
pated for the summer. Everybody is work
ing; there is plenty of money in circula
tion, and nothing but optimism is to be
found.
There seems little doubt in the minds of
anyone, he says, that the output there this
summer will be practically twice as large
as last year, and will make it well over a
mill:' n.

TRIED MINING AND FARMING
AND SUCCEEDED AT LATTER
—
Back m 1SD7 hundreds of Minneapolitans
had Alaska gold fever, says a Minneapolis
newspaper. Among them was John G.
Johnson. He packed his belongings in a
gunnvsuck and joined the endless streams of
tenderfoot “mushers” headed for the land
of promise.
He returned last week after twenty years
of “necking it” through the wilderness of
the far North, prospecting in the mountains
and valleys, and enduring all the hardships
the life entails. He was a young man when
he left. Today his face is seamed with the
lines that spell exposure and hard work.
His hair is gray.
He has put at his back twenty years of
experience that savor of a Jack London
story. He has found gold. He has tramped
out of the hinterlands with a fortune in
dust on his back. He has lost those for
tunes in vain attempts to repeat his suc
cess. He has run the gamut of good for
tune and bad, always with face set on the
golden rainbow just ahead.
He found fortune at last. But it was
not wrested from the yellow-streaked rock,
t was from the land of the Matanuska
valley, in Alaska.
He made his money raising potatoes, tt
makes him laugh when he thinks about it.
For nearly two decades he prospected from
.Dawson to Fairbanks, from Copper river to
Valdez and Cook inlet, finding gold and los
ing it. And then he took up a 320-acre
homestead of government land near the new
railroad and discovered that 3 cents a pound
profit oil potatoes, on land that will raise
twelve tons of them an acre, was the way to
a permanent bank account.
“1 mushed into the gold country with
my pack on my hack.” said Johnson. "1
worked in the Dawson mines, learning to
know gold when I saw it, and to know
where to find it. With my partner 1 worked
a claim on Hunker creek.
“That one claim paid up $46,000 in a
few months. We took that money and
went into the Dominion creek region, in
the Yukon. Bedrock was deep there. We
sunk expensive machinery and went into it
big. The next spring found us broke,
down and out.
“I went to Fairbanks and got a good
stake furnishing wood for the old mines.
And then back on the trail 'way up to the
Slate Creek district, and into the head of
the Copper river, to Valdez and Seward.
I worked every creek and range on the
way out, always 'mushing’ it on foot.
“Finally I found myself in the Cook inlet,
and took up a government claim for the
fun of it. I discovered that a few acres of
potatoes paid more in the end than any
claim I ever connected up with. Funny,
isn't it?”
It was suggested that while raising the
succulent tuber might afford a more sub
stantial honorarium than chasing the
golden “wdl-o’-the-wisp, it was a decided
“come-down” as far as adventure and ro
mance were concerned.
The prospector-farmer sniffed.
“I can get along right well with mighty
little of this romance stuff,” he exclaimed.
“If you call working a drift with the ther
mometer around 40 degrees below zero, all
the while hoping that the spring run will
show you have hit something during the
winter—if you cal! that romance, some- j
body else is welcome to it. If living on 1
s i
‘sour dough’ and frozen beans is adventure,
you can have my share.”
“Why did you stick it out so long, then?”
he was asked.
Mr. Johnson looked rather sheepish as he
answered.
“You never found gold, I guess,” he
said. “There isn’t any sensation like it in
the world. You got to work like seven I
niggers to get it, and then maybe it isn’t ;
there. And maybe it is. Always that. |
Maybe it is. And when you see it there i
in your pan and you figure out all you got j
to do to make $100 is to shovel a little. ■
well, there isn’t any feeling I know about 1
like it. There it is, yellow and pretty. And i
it will buy you anything in town—anything j
you want. That is what keeps you there.” j
The suggestion was natural that perhaps
he would some day desert the potato farm
and hit the (rail.
“Not if I know myself," he said. “I like
the land. And they are building the gov
ernment railroad right through it. From
Seward to Anchorage it is wonderful land. [
You can raise anything there that you can !
here. And to the north about, fifty miles j
are the coal fields. Some day there are ,
going to be sawmills and pulp mills up
there. It won’t take many years before
the whole district is settled. I am there
to stay. Raising potatoes is something like
mining gold, anyway. You work all season
and then look to see what you have got.
And the odds of there being potatoes in
the ground are in your favor.”
Mr. Johnson will return to Alaska as
soon as transportaton opens in the spring.
Fie will remain with his parents until then.

WHERE THE HIGHLANDERS WERE
The scene was a kinema palace, where
the Somme battle pictures were being flick
ered. As the Warwickshires were seen go
ing over the top to the attack an excited
Birmingham man exclaimed triumphantly,
What about your Highland regiments
now?” As luck would have it, there was
a short, bandy-legged Scot in a’ kilt within
hearing. He flared up, and replied: “What
aboot our Hielan’ regiments? Why, they
are keepm back the Germans while your
men are gettin’ their photographs taken.”—
London Opinion.
LEATHER SHOES MAY BECOME
A LUXURY OF THE PAST
John F. Stucke, vice president of the
American Chamber of Commerce in Italy,
and general manager of an American shoe
machinery company, is quoted in a Rome
news dispatch as saying that “a barefooted
F/Urope is not improbable if this war con
tinues.” The statement was made in an
interview concerning supply and business
conditions met by Americans abroad.
“At the present time a pair of mountain
shoes lasts a soldier but six weeks,” con
tinued Mr. Stucke. “These shoes have their
heels and soles studded with nails at that.
The shoes are largely made in Italy, but
with American machinery and American
leather, and the quality of the material is
the best we can furnish, but that quality is
of course inferior to that sold before the
war. When manufactured by the hundred
thousand these shoes cost the government
about 14 each. But the supply is always
behind the demand, since materials' arrive
very slowly from America. On one ship,
the Palermo, which was torpedoed in the
Mediterranean, off the coast of Spain, in
early December, the material for nearly half
a million pairs of shoes was lost.
“The retail store trade in Italy is now
obliged to pay nearly $7 wholesale for shoes
'that before the war cost $3.50, and it is
probable that American shoes will be sell
ing in Italy soon for $10 and $12 per pair.
The American shoes, because of their shape
iand fit, have long been the chief product
on the market here, and particularly since
the war, as the hand-made shoe cannot be
made quickly enough.”
