head of thermal springs. Hot springs are most numerous on the list, 
which may be due partly to the fact that such springs naturally attract 
most attention, especially in a new country. Chalybeate, sulphurated, 
and saline springs are also found. The springs enumerated by Dall are 
supplemented in the table by several others, two of which are taken 
from a book by Frederick Whymper, one from the Pacific Coast Pilot 
for 1869, and two from Walton's Mineral Springs, in which they are 
reported by Dr. H. J. Phillips, of the United States Army. Several 
localities have been added by Sheldon Jackson. So far as learned, none 
of the waters of the Alaskan mineral springs has ever been analyzed.
