Alfred H. Brooks Coming North to Continue LabOrs.

A Washington dispatch of late date says that Alfred Fl. Brooks, who for five years straightway has been connected with the governments geologicalin yes tigations in Alaska, for the past two years in full charge of them, Is getting ready to leave Washington for Alaska about the middle ot June He will pro- cede from Washington to Seattle, where he Is we'll known by reason of his Alas kan researches, and will sail from that city about June 95, to be gone until October. He will cover the most i'm portant points of the territory while away. and get look at all of the geo. logical work that will be under way this season. In speaking of his work, Mir Brooks said:
 "Our Alaskan work thus far has been largely oi an exploratory and reeonnaiS- sance character. We have gathered facts, made maps, and so far as we were able furnished data of various sorts that would be helpful tothe miners, pros pectors and other pioneers. So rapidly has our work been performed that we now have maps of al the larger rivers ot Alaska except two, the As, ek and the N0atak, the former of which Is large ly in Canada Our work of mapping tho Colyille River Is somewhat moro than oue-hali6nished Roughly speak ing, we have mapped aboul 10000 out ofthe 10000 square miles in the terri tory.
 mPcrhaps the most important work to be done this year will be in the region ot Nome gold fields. We have mapped abou, l6,0OO ot the 2O,OOO square miles oi Seward Peninsula, and expect this year Co map the remaining 1000 square miles.
 Arthur C Spencer, assisted by Char les W. Wright, will this season make study oi Juneau mining district, which wilbc the frs, detailed geological work ever done in Alaska He will also visit the mining districts Of the adjoining re- gions shall be in Juneau during the year.
 "Dr. c c. Martin is this year to make a hasty reconnaissance of the petroleum districts of Alaska, perlim- mary Co more dettiled work next year"

pleasant functions have been given.
Notwithstanding the fact that Ash
Wednesday comes next week, there are
ever SO many things planned, and many
OF them for the latter part of the week
Musical people who did not hear Ga
brilowtsch, are as busy trying to give
reasonable excuses, as were the people
OF old who were hidden to a wedding
feast or something of the sort, and de-
clined the invitation: but these musical
people receive not one grain of comfort
from those who heard the great Rus
sian. as each one tells them they have
lost rare opportunity.
At eight o'clock Wednesday evening,
at the home of the brides parents, Mr..
and Mrs. N. X. Griggs. 154S South Seven

Margaret Griggs and Mr.. Bertrand Eu-

mingled with white roses and carna-
tions. The youthful bride was pretty
and girlish i'm her wedding gown of

lace. She wore a veil caught with a dia-
mOnd and pearl sunburst, the gift of the
groom and carried bride roses. After

yellow or white gowns. Misses Helen
Field and Grace Bennett served punch
in the library. The present room, which
was filled with glittering cut glass and
silver. and much pretty china and linen,
attracted much attention. A fine new
piano was the gift to the bride from her
parents, and a quaint silver spoon sent
by the brides grandmother, made the
relic lovers green with envy. for ii was
once the property of Sir Robert Morse,
who was the reat-great-great t-great-
grandfather of the bride.
