We could see the old buildings of
the famous Treadwell mine, where
formerly stood the largest free -mill-
ing stamp mill in 'tbe world. Thia
mine was flooded by a cave-in in '1917
and has not 'been operated since.
Right neXt is We town of Douglas.
At the end of the channel lies •the

population 3,500 people: Some nice
stores and •lOts of curio shops, two,
modern liotels and .aome very mice,
honies and public bitildings?O'inlia'
side of Mount 'Robert we saw the
Ala-cka Juneau Gold tMining CO. mine.
It is the largest gold quartz mill in
\the United States or Alaska, capacity
0,00-0 tons of ore per day. I .got a
small piece of ere from the Salmon
Creek. gold. Mine,: We took a.
taxi and motored out to the mine. It
was about ten miles from Juneau.
We saw an auto turn over. He Was
racing &Tess a car, when he saw us
corning toward ,him, He threw on his
brakes and tried to stop,' but the dar
turned completely. over in the ditch.
The radiaor and top were all 'smash-

and walked' on it. The glacier is 90

feet thick 'We Itaid:iwild stiawhierries
and cream here. 'The raspberries and
strawberries are jest ripe. The rasp-
berries are about three times the size
of what we grew. here.' They are
good to eat. We visited the Terri-
torial museum; 'saw a complete Es -
miles south of the 'International otut- kimo =lamina supposed to 'be the
dary. Then we crossed the DiXonien- finest and ' only 'complete one of its
kind in the.world, The Grand Can-
yon. of Alaska, the site of the first
placer gold strike in Alaska, made by
Joe Juneau and -litioltai-d Haines itt
the early 80's.
We left Jimeau:at 12 midnight and
went up the Lynn celled between tow-
ering mountains, many of them cap-
ped with glaciers and snow. It was
a beautiful sight with the sun shining
on them. We. arrived at Skagway,
had a look around town and. board-
ed the Cariboo train for Carcross.
Wc went right over the mountains,
saw the trails ,that were made wlien
the gold rush was on. There are lots
of aalkes. We went along the shore
of .Lake Bennett for- 27 miles. At
Carcross we got .011 the stern wheeler
steamer and steamed tip the narrow
mountain girt -lakes to BeneMy-Chree,
at the head of the West Laku Arm.
Here we Saw the back door of the
Laku gtaeier. Distance about 150
miles from Skagway, At Ben.;,My-
Chrge there is an old couple living
who' have a wonderful gardem.They
showed us all over the place, then
gave us tea, sandwiches and cake:
They also- showed us a bag.`of gold
which they .had taken from their
mine. The bag was about six ladies
wide and nine inches high. It was
worth $5,000 and was heavy to lift.
The mountains here are four to six
thousand feet high. Also saw the
grave of Soapy Smith, the outlaw.
'The flowers in Skagway are won-
derfal. Dahlias 10 to 14 inches across
the flower. Sweat pea vines 8 to 10
feet high. Pansies 3 inch•es and asters
6 inches in diameter and all the other
flowers. They grow much larger in
the Yukon, They start blooming
about July 1st and continue till cut

which is open to the Pacific Ocean.
The ship was only three times in the
Open Ocean and three hours was the
longest at one lirne. It was rough.
There were about thirty people ,to
lunch out of about 200 passengers.
Marie, IDcitt and I never missed` one'
meal. Then we passed through Laura
passage, Bella Bella , an old and prac-
tically deserted village on the left,
and then through Millband Sound,
the second stretch of open ocean,
about ten miles long. ,
Digby !Island on the left, on which
wal the Canadian Government wire-
less station and buoy dept. We ar-
rived at !Prince !Rupert. Stayed there,
a 'few hours and visited the tewn:\
Prince Rupert is the 'Pacific Terminal
of the Canadian National Railways.
There 15 a large floting drydock nap -
able of lifting :vessels 20,000 tons. It
is 600 ,feet long. Prince Rupert is now
also an important fishing centre.
Large quantities of fish, particularly
halibut, 'are 'being shipped front this
point to Eastern Canada and the
United 'States, also a large cold stor-
age, plant !located in the upper !har-
bor. This is where the fish are un-
loaded and iced. A short distance
from Prince Rupert we passed the old
Indian village' of Mithakatia and
about thirty minutes after Fort SimP-
scn, Fort Simpson is an old Hudson
Bev :Company's post. It is one ela
the ()Masi leitlements in northern' B.
C. Here the Hudson -Bay have been
-trading with the Indians foreabout
sixty yea I'S. About three hours after
leaving Prince Rupert, we passed the
Green Island Lighthouse. This is six
trance, another wide entrance front
the open soe, and we wind our way
through 'Revilla ' Narrows, and leads
you ot 'Ketchikan, which 'town is lo-
cated an the Revillq Gigedo Island,
Just before arriving at Ketchikan,
port doctors, customs and immigra-
tion officials came on board and --we
all had to show our immigration
cards and get a pass before we .could
go ashore. Ketchikan is one of the
largest and most prosperous towns in
Alaska, 'It has several prosperous'
canneries and a large cold storage
pleat. a number of curio . shops, a
lovely waterfall about fifteen minutes'
walk from elle boat, where the salmon
'are ascending the shallow waters of
the rapids, Some places the salmon
were so thick they were crowding one
another out of the water. They are
going up the fresh water streams to
spawn, Lots of dancing, singing and
playing bridge in the evening. In the
day time we play shuffleboard and
rings. Shuffleboard is gond exercise
and lots of fun,
