GUY’S Drug Store NEXT POST OFFICE DOUGLAS ANOTHER GREAT' CARIBOU HERO NEAR DAWSON Thousands of Game Ani mals Come in and Give Yukoners Opportunity to Get Fresh Meat. DAWSON, Nov. 27.—A recent arriv als from Hie Twelve-Mile district, North of Dawson, report that thou sands of caribou have been crossing the hills and vales of that region of late, says the Dawson News. For many days they swarmed down the Little Twelve-Mile and across the Hay Meadows and covered the hills between Kentucky Point and Laptne Ridge, which is on the wagon road which follows the Guggie Gulch from Dawson to the Twelve-Mile Power House. When they came to the big flume many could not cross, but wandered along the flume untl they found a high trestle where It crossed a gulch. Then they marched in single file under tlio trestle, down the hill, and crossed the valley of Twelve-Mile, and struck Northerly along the North fork or main branch of the Twelve Mile. The most of them crossed on the eleventh, the day peace was an nounced, and the denizens of the re gion celebrated by bagging enough caribou that day to fill their caches all Winter. Hilly Hill, the Twelve Mile foreman for the Yukon Gold . and Carlson came In with the newsj of the big Trek. The caribou were in the vicinity for two weeks. Useful Xmas Gifts.
