AT SHEEP CAMP
Island Man Writes From
Summit of Chilcoot.
Found a Japanese There With a
Restaurant-Sharp Climb.
A ;S!ide.
One of the most interesting Klondike
letters yet received here is to David
Dayton from Alex. Sheppard. Mr.
Sheppard is very well known in Ha
waii. He was for a long time carpen
ter at Spreckelsville plantation cn
Maui and then came to Waianae plan
tation on this Island with Manager
Center when Mr. Center changed his
base. Sheppard is a man who can be
relied upon to present the exact facts.
' The former plantation carpenter
started for the gold fields well equip
ped as to outfit and means. He had the
excellent good fortune to form an al
liance with an old friend of his who
had made one trip into the alluring
North.
At the date of the letter from Mr.
Sheppard, March 26th, he and his part
ner were at Sheep Camp, the summit of
Chilcoot Pass. In the final 2,000 feet of
this climb there is an elevation of 1,000
feet. Steps have been cut into the
snow and ice. Posts have been set 100
feet apart and lines run between them.
Along this remarkable stairway are
wrought out shelves as resting places.
Indians and white men pack up the
goods and for service charge the good
figure of two cents per pound. The
Canadian Government requires that
each traveler have not less than 1,100
pounds of supplies. The packers take
from 25 to 250 pounds each trip and
are at work constantly. Many of the
owners undertake to do their own work
and in some cases women were seen
assisting in the trying task.
Mr. Sheppard says that at the very
summit of the pass he was a little sur
prised to find a Japanese in charge of
a restaurant. The face must have
seemed familiar, but Mr. Sheppard does
not say that the Jap had ever been in
Hawaii. This little brown landlord
charges 75 cents for a meal and 5 cents
for a drink of water. Wood has to be
hauled a great distance to be used in
melting the snow. Eating snow or ice
has a bad effect on the mouth and on
the general health. There is 20 to 30
feet of isnow at Sheep Pass and snow
ts till falling. It was the intention of
Mr. Sheppard and his friend to proceed
it . 11. - j
so soon as xne weainer moueraieu.
Hundreds of others are also wiating.
Dowm the Chilcoot Pass in the direc
tion of the trail leading to the gold
fields the descent is very sharp. The
course s are "V" shaped and a trip
down is the thrill of a life time. Mr.
Sheppard intimates that there is much
hardship in the trip, "but says that by
care, sickness can be avoided. Those
who are laid low are men who work
themselves into a great perspiration
and then catch cold. Mr. Sheppard
and his partner will be able to build
their own boat when navigation is
opened and hope to be early in a sec
tion reputed to be very rich in gold.
Y. 31. C. A. Tonight.
The complete program for the Y. M.
C. A. anniversary celebration to be
held this evening has been published
in this paper. It may be added now
that everyone will be we'icome and that
the evening will be-one of marked
pleasure to all. There will be excellent
music and for the good night, refresh-
Hnents will be served. Features of the
gathering will be reports and addres
ses incidental to the retirement of
President A. B. Wood and the installa
tion of President W. C. Weedon. One
item which should attract is the sale
by auction of a collection of 20 pic
tures. Titese are highly artistic prints
from the origmals of artists of world
wide fame.
Eighth Sentence.
In the Police Court yesterday fore
noon Robert Kaili was found guilty of
the charge of gambling and sentenced
to pay a fine of $15 and costs.
Chock Pau was found guilty on the
charge of larceny in the second degree
and sentenced to a term of two years
at hard labor and to pay the costs of
Court. Chock Pau has already served
seven sentences in jail. It seems im
possible for him to keep out of mis
chief. His last offense was the larceny
of a fishing net from .a Japanese.
Woman's Board Meeting.
This afternoon at 2:30 o'clock there
will be a meeting at Central Union
Church parlors of the Woman's Board.
This will be a session of especial in
terest. A number of the Micronesian
missionaries returned by the S. S.
Morning Star will deliver addresses
and relate experiences at evangeliza
tion in the South Seas. At the close of
the meeting there will be a sale of mats
and fans brought by the Morning Star.

REWARD OF MERIT.
At the CHICAGO CYCLE SHOW in
1S&7, each visitor on entering the
Show was handed a coupon reading as
below:
"After viewing the exhibits, kindly
fill in the name of the Bicycle which
pleases ycu best as regards beauty
and mechanical merit, and deposit the
coupon in ballot box near exits.
Name of Bicycle, "
The ."-Shirk" received 17,489 ballots
against 12,377 the next (highest. When
it is known that all the leading makes
of wheels in the United States were
on exhibition at this Show, the. above
speaks for itself. The HONOLULU
BICYCLE CO. have secured the Agency
for this strictly high grade wheel.
IT WILL INTEREST YOU TO CALL
AND SEE IT.
The SHIRK is the ibest thing that
ever happened.
Louis Toussaint offers a reward for
the return otf his dog "Nipper."
THE
Approv
IS WORTH HAVING. It
makes the very best sort of advertis
ing. The saving of even the smallest
fraction in buying is often worth, in
the aggregate, your year's rent.

to sacrifice a penny 'by doing so. In
the long run we lose nothing.
