ble native-born white man, Jean
S. Le Rouge, judging from the con
tents of a letter received by the
Gateway in the last mail from Mr.
Rouge who is now in Chicago.
Many stories were recently pub
lished in this paper about him in
which he described many interest
ing things pertaining to the life
and customs of Interior Indians
and-Eskimos, as well as numerous
other items. When he left here he
had fully intended to return and
again take up his work at a trading
post in the Bering Sea but since he
has been outside his plans appear
to have changed. It was his first
trip outside in many years and it
can be easily understood how
quickly he found a niche in the
East for he has a fund of informa
tion and statistics regarding his
native land.
In Chicago he has met scores of
line business people who are the
ones mainly instrumental in keep

World’s Fair is in the offing and,
!according to Mr. Le Rouge, he is in
the midst of supplying data, etc.,
on the Territory, and he added. Al
aska is to receive unlimited publici
ty.
But, regardless of present plans,
Mr. LeRouge, when his work in
Chicago is completed, is returning
to Alaska with his associates, and
open up a large fur business. Just
where he will be located, he did not
say. So after all he will not be lost
to the Territory.
| He had the pleasure and privilege
of appearing before the Chicago
Board of Trade; the heat of the
East put him under the weather for
several days but he is again feeling
well; the noise at first was terrible,
;he writes, but he finally found a
: quiet home in a residential section
I where he now enjoys a good nite’s
irest. When not busy with com
mittees he is being taken about
and shown the multiple industries
of the city and these hold tremen
dous interest for him.
