WILSON Fleshertou Meal Emporium The Klondike Country Little more than twelve months ajjo the Klondike was one of tlioso unknown and inhospitable regions of snow and ice into which even the hardiest adventur- ers laruly penetrated. Since then, how- ever, the fame of this great gold-bearing district has spread round the globe, the« Bimsational reports of the rich discoverifs already niaile have startled the civilized world, and thousands are flocking thither in search of fortune On August 24th 1896, a lucky individ- ual named tiendersoii made the tirst dis- covery of gold. Exactly one week later, Joseph Ludue, one of ihe mo&t experi- enced and renuuuc^ miueiK 01 the day, started to erect the first house at the junction of the Klondike und Vukon riv era. He called the piace Bawson City. 811 rapidly \\&i i* developed that, in Juie last, the population numbered over four thousand. Ii is the beadiiuariera of the Canikdiaii North-West Mounted Police, who maintain law and order amiiui(8t the mines, and can already boast of num- erous sliop^, a s.iw uiiii and churches of four diU'ercnt donoiuniatiuns. Ladue pivdict^ that Dauson City is desiined to become the greatest mining eeiUre in the world. There seems U> be much conflict of opinion regarding the climate of Klondike. Nuwspupt-r wiiteni have ilepiuted it as a sort of aecond Siberia, have drawn har- rowing pictures of the suH'erings endured by the miners, and predicted that thous- ands will perish of cold during the prea- em winter, .loseph Ladue has a very different tale to tell. He tluclares that these reports are entirely misleading. According to his accounts, the winter etiBimences in October, but does not seri- ously interfere with noning opHratious. The days are very short â€" lastini; only a few hoursâ€" but even at niglil tiiore ia no pitch darkness. A sort of iwiliglit prc^'ail8, and the grand spectac u of the Kor 11, ighls is vt^iy ciiiumo.1 Spiiig opens about (he first of May, wh>n t^ie ice begins to break up. The Yukon river is generally clear about the middle of that iu<>nth. The luiner's busy season obmmeiices then, and lasts until the fol- lowing October. In tlie summer he can work durng tho whole twenty four hi)ur8 if necessary fur there is practically no night. In the winter the fall of anuw averages from two to three feel, {but is as d y as sawdust. As thaws are unknown, no crust forms upon the surface, so that it is quite an easy matter to get from place to place with the aid of suuwstioes. Owing to this, the inhabitants of Klon- dyke can face the luoat rigoroua winter with impunity. The gold lb found in nuugets, grains, and dust. Some extraordinary finds have already been recorded. Fur instance, Aiexaoder McDou.tiii secured a claim on tho Klondyke, and started "drifting " with the assistance ot four men. Tlit- tuon agreed to work on sliarus, each re- ceiving one-half of his total earnings. The five together took out ijold to the value of about £19,000 in twenty-eight days .' Tlie ground duL' up was found to measure not more than fmty rquare feet; and as they have still several hundred mpinru feet to work upon before tlie claim is exhausted, they will probably hnwi. away a very respectable fortune. WiUiinn Leiigait and liis partner pui- cliasud their claim from a iniiur ivuiioil Htewart. Within a luoith they had leal- Izod ovor £10,000, and iho space worked (lid not exceed iwi'iity-foUt Bcpiare f ei ! A young man who wont to Klouilyke about six iiii>nlhs ago whs Uioky en"U_h to hit upon a claim out of which he hs bt^en taking gold at the nile of uboi.t £aOO a day !

When iliaroiiiemboietl thai the "meth- er vt ins" from which these paiticles oii^. iuiilly caino still reiniiiii to be iliscovered, one scarcely dares to imagine the fabu- lous woal'h tint awaits tlie lucky individ- unl who strikes upon them.

Ooie|>ani<'n when ahoy ai'd reads it with the same iiiteroa*, now that he ia a middle ftgiid man, was asked the other day if he had not outgrown The Conipnn- inn. "I don't believe," sa'id he, "that I can ei-er outgrow it. 1 find in it not only the cheery, hojwful spirit of youth, but the wisdom and experience ot «Ke. I like it just t«s much aa when I was a buy, though perhaps in a different way.
