One effect of the miners’ strike that
had not Wen taken into consideration,
said a Fairbanks man today, is the
marked change that it is causing in the
methods of work. When the operators
could not get men to shovel in their
dumps they set about finding a way out
of the difficulty. Some of them hit on
a plan of putting the dirt into the boxes
by steam and found they could get along
very well with half the number of men
formerly employed. In many other
ways, the man said, the operators are
learning to economise in labor and to
work their ground to better advantage.
All of which goes to show that blessings
have (Tot quit traveling in disguise.
Nowadays when a report comes out
of some out-of-the-way locality that
favorable prospects of gold have been
found, the warning always accompanies
it that everything has been staked.
Under the circumstances it looks like
stampedes would naturally go out of
fashion. There is no use to stampede
just to find out whether somebody else
got payable ground or not.
A bklated copy of a bill introduced
into congress by Mr. Waskey arrived a
few days ago, and the pnrpose of tlie
measure was so good and its provisions
so wholesome that we hoj>e Mr. ('ale
w ill see pro|ier to work for its passage.
It aimed to kill jmwer of attorney
staking and to limit [a-neil work.
It is strange that when events get to
running in a given direction everything
seems to happen to help them along.
If the mining trouble in the Tanuna
should hasten the acquirement of the
ground by a few hig capitalists it would
!«• a case in point.

ASSAULT ON
WALLY LABOSKI
Was Dangerously Hurt, but is Nnw
Out of Danger-Assailant
in Hiding.
Wally Laboski, at Eureka, has been
in a serious condition for several days
from the effects of an assault committed
upon him last Thursday. He was con
sidered out of danger for the first time
yesterday.
His assailant was one Herman Hill.
Dill was employed to look out for a ditch
at nights in order to repair any breaks
that might wear before the damage be
came serious. Instead of watching the
ditch lie slipped into a cabin and went
to sleep and was promptly discharged.
Dill suspected that Laboski bad in
formed on him. When the men met
Dill knocked Laboski down and kicked
him on the bead with a heavy hob-nailed
boot. Laboski lay practically uncon
scious for two hours and lias been in a
more or less dazed condition ever since.
Deputy Marshal Drake lias been look
ing for Dill, who is in hiding. At last
accounts the man bad not been found.
It is said that Laboski was not respon
sible for Dill’s discharge.
Big Boiler for the Lightning.
Dawson, June 11.—The new boiler for
the steamer Lighting w ill come on the
barge in charge of the steamer Dawson
on her next trip. The boiler weighs
over 31 tons and is the largest single
piece of machinery ever brought over
the White l’ass. The boiler will sup
ply the Lightning with steam to make
her one of the most powerful tugs and
most speedy steamers on the Yukon.
Better than most metaphor* that have
been drawn from the spider’s way of
life is the delightfully human one of
Alphonse Karr’s in his “Voyage autour
<le mon Jardin.” The spider, he says,
is more truthful than man. When man
says, “If my wife does not love me I
shall die,” he does not die. But when
the spider says so he knows he is Hj>euk
ing the truth, for if his w ife does not
love him she kills him.—Lendon Satur
