Expedition Organizing to Explore Sup
posed Relic OF the Stone Age.
A remarkable discovery has been
made on the shores OF Prince William
Sound. While n prospector named
Leeds was out with party OF natives
looking for mineral he came TO tho
entrance of a largo cave almost con-
cealed from view.
Leeds entered tho cavern and was
astonished TO find there fourteen
wooden canoes. each containing
mummified corpse. Stone implements
were found beside the bodies and
stone slabs covered tho canoes, ev-
erything indicating that the bodies
had been placed there during tho
stone age.
The find was as big n mystery 10
the natives as To the white man. Their
tribe has been on the shores OF Prince
William Sound from n period so re-
mote that their traditions do not run
back TO the time OF its advent there.
yet they have had no knowledge OF
the cave or OF the character OF people
who are inferred there. Nor do the
present natives use stone implements.
Leeds did not disturb the bodies,
but carefully marked the site OF the
cave and after prospecting returned
to Valdez. An expedition is being or
ganlzed. headed by Capt. Story OF tho
Alaska Packers Association. To make
a thorough exploration OF the cavern
and the remains that repose therein.

NEW COUNTY JAIL.

AS result Of recent visit Of in
spection from one of the members
of the State Board Of Charities TO orr
county buildings, County Clerk Wall res
cieved a communication from the
secretary Of the board this week in
structing him to call the attention Of
the supervisors to the fact that Iron
County did not possess a Jail accor ling
to the prescribed requirments of the
statutes
The law requires each county to
provide a Jail in which female and
child prisoners shall be kept apart
from adult male prisoners, as no such
provisions at present is afforded in our
county Jail it is to be hoped that the
result OF this communication will be
that Iron County in the near future
will possess building in which she
can lodge her criminals both male and
female without fear that ere the time
comes Tor them to be brought to trial
that they have ecaped from the hands
of the law and the county put to con-
siderable expense in vain pursuit Of
lost prisoners.
