Where is the fleet in Sampson's theatre of action
May 10 report indicates no word from Admiral Sampson yesterday and officials foresee several days before hearing. A trusted source says the admiral may have shifted to an alternate plan after not finding the enemy as hoped. The navy department is not alarmed for fleet safety and notes uncertainty about Spanish fleet location, possibly in Cadiz or across the Atlantic rather than near Sampson.

How to steer a dog sled in Alaska
A Klondiker offers practical advice on sled handling in severe Alaska conditions. Digging handholds, using two-person teams with one pulling and one pushing, and staying balanced on inclines helps control the sled. Sled frames, lash ropes, and rawhide lacing secure loads while windproof matches and coal oil soaked cloth aid quick fires in extreme cold.
