MINING WITH FIRE. RQueer Methed Fuiployed in the Yukon Country in Alaska. J. O. Hestwood, who s well knoww in this city, returned from Alaska on the last trlp of the Alaska Commercial Company’s steamer to San IFrancisco. Mr. Hestwoed has some mining claims lon the upper Yukon, near Forty-Mile | City. He left that point in the early | part of September, and it took him over | & month to get home. He came 2,000 tmiles down the Yukon to St.,Michaels, on the coast, then down to Unalaska, and from there across to San I'rancisco. “About 700 people went into the upper . Yukon country last season,” said Mr. Hestwood, “byway of Juneau, making their way over the mountiins at Chili kat pass, then on the fce over the great I lakes for 300 miles; from there they had to go 400 milesgfurther by lmut,l when they reached TlForty-Mile City. There hias been a great deal of activity in the mines at lorty-Mile. It was demonstrated last winter that these mines can be worked as profitably In the winter as in summer; in fact, at much less expense. ‘This is done by the use of fire.

By using L uls machinery a hole twenty-five feet “deep can be sunk in a day, when eighteen inches a day by burning is a pretty good day's work.” Speaking of the Alaska boundary dispute Mr. IHestwood sazd: “In my opinlon, if the United States fail to hold their rightful title to the territory which is in dispute they might as well give up all clalm to Alaska. 1! this country should have no coast line up there except abiove the 141st weridian, entrance to the upper Yukon would be impossible byway of an American port, sxcept during the summer months, be. causg the mouth of the Yukon, whick 13 ‘ about sixty miles wide, Is filled with fce from Behring sea untll late in Jum\.‘ You ¢an easily see what this wouid meau--England would absolutely control the trade of that country.

A practical invention by a veterinary | surgeon is now successfully applied ut Berlin, Ile maaufactures Lorseshoes of paper impregnated with oil or tur- | pentine to make it waterproof. After being saturated, it is glued together in thin layers with a cement which does not become brittle when drying and consists of a mixture of Veretlan tutpentine, powdered chalk, linseed oil and lacquer. ‘These horseshoes uare made in varlous thicknesses. The holes, admitting the nails by which the shoe is fastened to the hoof, are stamped through the paper when moist; it Is 1 then subjected to a very strong pressure, under a hydraulic press, and, , when dry, can be filed and planed to fit the hoof snugly. The inventor has already attempted to make these horseshoes of paper pulp, adding chalk, sand, turpentine and linsoed oil in such guantities that the material is impermeable to moisture. This composition POSSCSSEs the necessary elasticity and toughness for the purpose; it can be pressed in molds u‘ud dried afterwards, or cut out of blocks of the mass and placed ]nuldt‘l‘ str(:nfz assure.
