J. H. FREEMAN GOING TO THE KLONDIKE.

MR. J. H. FREEMAN who has for for sometime filled the position of Guide on the Island of Santa Catali- na, Avalon, California, was born in Ross Connty, Ohio, in 1862, He has developed s fine physique by his Vegetarian habits, fenning, gardening, and travel afoot and awheel. He was crop correspondent to the State Board of Agriculture in Ohio. At- tending the State Fair at Columbus, he obtained a first premium and diploma on County display of firults and a silver medal for the best collection of Ohio woods. He also received a diploma on a model road bridge. At the Ross Co. Fair he received ist premium for the largest and best Display of Vegetables raised by one exhibitor.

He has been traveling from state to state and city to city for the past fifteen years. When he becomes dissatisfied with one place he removes to another.

Mr. Freeman writes : " I can go up on the hills on Catalena Island on a clear day and see seven different islands. I came to Cat- alenain June, 1896, and liked it so well I just kept on staying." Speaking of a visit to Saint Nicholas Island, 70 miles away, the party "made a good find of botanical spec- imens and Indian relics, a botanist in the party brought away an hundred specimens of new flowers.

" Madame Blavatski," says Mr. Freeman, "says that these islands are the tops of mountains of the lost Atlantis."

Mr. Freeman also speaks of "a Society of people in California known as Fruitari-

ans who claim to eat nothing but fruit. I stopped at Summerlaud near Santa Barbara which is the headquarters of the Spiritualist Society, There had been a lecturer there who ate only olives for his lunch." We presume this was Rev. I. B. Rnmford, au- thor of Edenic Diet, who iavored us with samples of his dried olives.

He wrote he had travelled in Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Colerado, Utah, and California and the state of Wash- ington, where helivedseven years, and was satisfied that Washington, west of the Cas- cade mountain range, taking into consider- ation climate, soil and natural advantages, is the garden spot of the U. S. for a Vege- tarian Colony. Mr. Freeman's place was 1 2 miles from Seattle where on five acres he raised fruit and vegetables continuously without a single foilure during the seven years he lived there. One man made $1000 from one ' acre of strawberries during the booming of Seattle. Seattle is booming still and is now the most prominent shipping point in the North-west- It is believed that it will become the great Western metropolis of America.

The Klondike region has made Seattle its most favorite source of supplies and is the best located for parties embarking to the gold fields.

Mr. Freeman has left his belo\-ed Cata- lena Island and is now preparing to migrate to the Klondike Region. By a letter dated Seattle, Jan 26th, 1898, we learn that he has caught the gold fever and intends to go

to the Klondike. He writes: "I do not intend to take one pound of meat of any kind, I intend to take foods that have the most carbon in to produce the heat. By not using meat I wont have to take any scurvy cure with me, which is advertised here as very necessary to include in the out- fit for Alaska. The meat eaters argument is completely overthrown by the fact that vegetable food contains in the aggregate as much carbon as animal. Thus roasted Qesh contains only 53 per cent, of carbon, while eggs contain 53 and bees'-wax 81. The albumen of wheat contains 55 per cent, and of almonds 57, of carbon, starch contains 44 percent, and the amount of carbon contain- ed in four pounds of starch equals that contained in thirteen pounds of meat. In- dian com contains a great amount of carbon. Abstract the water from N. O. Molasses and the remainder is carbon. Molasses and Indian meal furnish a good winter diet. MY OUTFIT .FOR KLONDIKE.

' ' I could go in with the government party but I am not ready and expect to go the first of March. I go in over the ice and pull my own sled. I expect I will find the climate quite different fi-om that of Santa Catalina Island, Cal. We are having a very open winter here in Seattle. I didn't mind the change from California up here. I came up here in December. I have con- verted four to quit eating meat since I' came to Seattle."

We have given these particulars as they may be useful to others who desire to go to the new Land of Gold. We trust that when our Vegetarian explorers have become rich, they will contribute liberally in support of the Vegetarian cause.

CURED OF SQUIRREL HUNTING. Rev. H. D. L. Webster of Oak Park, Chicago, relates that one day while pursu- ing his favorite pastime he wounded a young squirrel which fell irom the top of a tree and caught in the lower branches. As it hung there by its fore feet it uttered most piteous cries, and seemed to be looking directly at him with reproachful eyes. So human and touching were its look and appeals that it made an impression on him to last his life. March,
