From this it may seen that Juneau is
no longer a mere mining camp, but a
thriving, busy town, with a future be
fore it. It has every qualification for
the future metropolis of the North
west, being equally accessible by land
or water. Resides, it is the nearest
port to the mouth of the Copper River,
the Oolden Gate of the Great North
west, which promises to be the princi
pal approach to the gold regions in the
Spring. Old miners are making ar
rangements now- to go up the Copper
River in February or March, and strike
thence to the ne w fields along the Chil
lyna. White and Stewart rivers, from
which have come within the past few
weeks further stories of rich finds that
bid fair to throw the Klondike into the
idiade.
Louis C. Frey, of Newark, N. J., is
now- in the Copper River country at the
head of an exploring and prospecting
party. Mr. Frey, who is a veteran pros
pector, says in a letter to a friend in
this city:
"The Copper River is nearly four hun
dred miles long, draining over 29,000
square miles, and by a portage (road)
of seventy-live miles at its upper end
can be connected with the Tanana
River, which flows into the Yukon
One can also reach the Yukon from
the Copper River by ascending the
Ohillyna River, which empties into the
latter stream, as far east as Scolai or
Copper River Pass, which is only
eighty miles long. At the other side of
Scolai Pass is the head of navigation
of the White River, which empties into
the Yukon midway between Fort Sel
kirk and Dawson City.
"There will be three routes next year
via the Stikine River, via Chilkoot
Pass and via Copper River. The last
will lie the easiest and shortest. Sev
eral nzvigation companies are prepar
ing to run steamers from Seattle, Sit
ka and Juneau to the mouth of the
Copper River, and there is a strong
prospect of a railroad in the Spring.
"The crazy rush over that danger
ous Skaguay Pass should be stopped
by Government interference, If neces
sary. On my way from Seattle to Sit
ka soon after the Dawson boom was
started, I talked with thirty men bound
for the Klondike. Oriiy four of them
knew anything about mining; the bal
ance were ignorant of that science, as
well as cf the art of taking care of
themselves. They will have to face
rough times. No man should come to
the Northwest without a proper sup
ply of gold, grub and grit."
That Juneau will be crowded to Its
utmost capacity long before April Is
acknowledged by all who have visited
this place. Olds & Orton, proprietors of
the Ocidental Hotel, have leased three
new buildings, to be used as annexes
and contemplate erecting an enormous
structure so soon as sufficient building
material and labor can be obtained
Prominent merchants are increasing
their orders for the Spring by several
hundred per cent., and the municipal
government has recognized the need of
an adequate police fore.
Juneau already has electric lights
and most of Its big buildings are steam
heated. It is not yet oversupplled with
theatres, politics and French millinery,
but those necessary adjuncts to metro
politanism will probably come In good
time. Meanwhile, the citizens of Ju
neau say to the people of the United
States: ''Come, if you want to; but if
you can't come, don't apologize; there
are others."
Above all, don't come if you can't
live without luxuries. Juneau is a live
town, but it isn't little, old New York.

NKW YORK, Oct. 14. One would Im-
agine that it was naiu'j ncc. j
v-a-days to warn the public against
professional marriage-mongers. nen
sver the veil that covers the operations
of these gentlemen has been lifted it
has been made clear to the dullest com,
prehension that bunkum is the basis
of the business and that really serious
swindles are its common accessories.
But exposures and warnings have not
stopped the supply of dupes, and these
r.ischlef-making agencies are still
pocketing the savings oi servant gins,
and the spare cash of hard-workins
young men who ought to know better.
The recent prosecutions for missing
woror rrauas anu umci u"6 " v-"...
titiona show that 20,000, or, perhaps, 60,
500, fools are always standing ready to
part with their money. They appear
to rely upon such theories as that a
man who is not publicly branded as an
Imposter must be honest, that a man
who advertises extensively must be
wealthy, that whatever appears in
print must be true, that an entnusias-
tie testimonial must be genuine and
unsolicited.
None of these stupid notions will hold
water for a moment. It is no easy tasii
to reveal a rogue's character and ca
reer to the general public. The law of
libel is so severe that a newspaper is
generally unable to publish a sentence
until it has in its possession a long
chain of well-corroborated evidence. In
the vast majority of cases the victims
d a skillful trickster take no steps to
protect others, thinking that they will
thus avoid adding to the unpleasant
ness of publicity. They say to them
selves, "We have been fooled, but why
should we let the world know wnai
fools we are?"
Victims Don't Complain.
When the victimization is the out
ome of their matrimonial schemes,
they are more horrified than ever at me
idea of attracting public comraenl to
their ambitious aspirations. The dry
goods clerk who wanted to find a lady
with $25,000 a year and the dressmaker
who thought that the photograph of
ner pretty face had beguiled the fancy
of a Wall street broker are naturally
not inclined to amuse their friends with
a recital ot tneir uisappoiuLiug capci i
ences. The agents of the marriage
.iiarket know all this beforehand, and
thus it happens that a course -or de
ceit and blatant humbug may be ear
ned on for months and years without
the interference of press or police.
To place confidence In the simple dis
play of wealth is equally senseless
Matrimonial agencies, like bogus loan
Dffices, have often proved gold mines to
ibeir unscrupulous promoters. The fees
Df the foolish soon suffice for splendid
Dflices, the costly upholstery of which
;auses the caller to believe that he is
dealing with people in the front rank
Df the business world. A staff of frock
;oated clerks are there to show the ten
ierest sympathy for the husband-seeking
shop girl or governess. Lifelong
happiness is on sale for a small fee.
Who can wonder if they are dazzled by
the inviting prospect and part with
their hard-won earnings in response to
:he honey-toned suggestions of the cun
ning rascals?
Cheap Game to Run.
At this game a big show can be made
with little expenditure. Most of the
idvertisements are evolved in the mar
riage agent's office, from the marriage
agent's fertile brain. When a genuine
idvertisement does come in, it is proba
bly from some forlorn maiden who ha
14
oeen waitine for years for a mate. Th
result if there is any result of her
subscriptions to the agency will be an
introduction to some worthless adven
turer, who will borrow whatever money
she may be possessed of and then fly
ftvry after a fresh quarry.
At these offices a part of the stock-in-trade
is a collection of highly orna
mental photographs handsome fellows
vvith curly black hair and drooping
mustaches, doll-faced beauties with
those charms of face and form which
the photographer has touched up with
such consummate skill. If the custo
mer thinks that a choice is offered
from these sDecimens it will prove a
delusion, for the best of them are not
on the books of the firm at all. The
others are probably dissolute persons
with whom marriage would be a dire
ful catastrophe.
I!l miiud Cut Diamond.
Perhans the mo.sr amusing element
n such negotiations is the frequent in
troduction of one adventurer to an
other. Kaeh is overjoy at the oppor
tunity of acquiring the fortune attrib
BUd to the other. If they wed they
cannot be long in discovering how ab
surdly tbev have worked at cross pur
poses. Mutual hatred follows, and mis
erable reproaches and appi opriate,
punishment for their mercenary enter
prises.
How are these agencies ultimately to
be disestablished? It can only be done
by multiplying the genuine oppoituni
ties for the young of both sexes to meet
one another at sociable functions. It
mitrht not to be difficult to get some
public-spirited people to organize and
superintend something similar to the
Institution which the Salvationists
have planned. A committee of sensl
ble women could be trusted to produce
a workable scheme.
If the existing agencies were success
