of hot appliances, yet many people employ less effective
methods such as liniments, plasters, etc., on account of
the trouble and mess incidental to the use of hot water.

SEWARD GORES
WIT# HORSES
Also Brings Ga*oi«fie, Powder and
General Freight—Will Take
Ore South.
The steam freighter Seward, in
command of Capta'n Jensen, reached
Valdez Saturday night at 10 o’clock
and left for the westward at 4 o’clock
Sunday morning.
The Seward brought powder, gas
oline and general merchandise and
also eleven horses for W. A. Black,
the Nome freighter, who is to enter
the freighting business from Valdez
to the Nelchinr and Chisana camps.
One horse died on the trip up.
• For 72 hours the ship lay to be
tween Icy straits and Hinchinbrook
because Captain Jensen did not want
to force the ship through the storm,
as the horses would all have been
badly crippled or killed from the roll
ing of the ship. Ten of the horses
are in excellent condition and are be
ing used today by Mr. Black, who is
preparing to leave for the interior
in a few days.
The freighter will take a capacity
load of ore from Latouchc, Ellamar
and Cordova on her trip down to be
delivered lo the Tacoma smelter.
