LIFELIKE.:.::I / ICE, !. .
TOMB FIVE YEARS
Fisherman's Body Perfectly Pre-
served in Bering Sea
Glacier. -

San Francisco, Sept. 16.-Had Ole
Sjostron's tomb Of Ice on an Arctic
island in the Bering sea remained I'M
disturbed a hundred thousand years, at
the end of that ponderous stretch of
time the face and form of Ole would
have looked as natural and lifelike as
at the moment of the fisherman death.
Five years ago this young Norwegian,
Sjostron, disappeared from Baranoff sta
tion. Nobody knew what became of
him, and finally people ceased to won
der. A few weeks ago the body was
found completely imbedded in the ice
and SO thoroly preserved that not even
the slightest indication Of change had
set in. 80 n &c.,. ~ IT,
The barkentine City Of Papeete ar
rived from Baranof yesterday, and the
news Of this remarkable discovery was
brought by her first mate, Knute Peter
son. 1850 49, sf. 5.srt
Give years in the ice," said Pete1s
son, had not made bit of difference
in his appearance. When they found
enough he was cold in death-even more
so than the ordinary dead man. They
suppose that he lay down on the glacier
while intoxicated and fell asleep, and
that after he had frozen to death the
ice formed over him.
Strange as this story may seem, tho
incident is not strange to those who
know the Arctic ice fields. Bodies of
the mammoth, the. Elephas -primigenus
Of an ancient epoch, have been. found
Similarly imbedded in the ice and sc
well refrigerated that after a lapse Of
time which is regarded as not less thar
twenty thousand years possibly very
modest estimate--even the flesh of the
animal was all there.
The sailors information about the
finding of Siostron s body is meager
but it is, presumable. that instead Of be
ing caught and imprisoned in the glacia
ice the fisherman died on the soft sol
of the tundra and that his body became
covered up and frozen with it.
Alexander Torson, formerly thire
mate of the City Of Papeete, disap
peared at Baranof early this year, ant
his old associates think that he; likt
siostron, met death on a glacier ant
that his body is held unchanged AM
tonish discoveries in some far later cen
fury.

ORPHEUM TO OPEN OCT. "a
SUPERINTENDENT F. E. HENDER-
SON ARRIVsE TO PUT THE FIN
ISHING TOUCHES ON THE MIN
NEAPoLIs HOME OF POLITE
VAUDEVILLE.

The splendid new Orpheum theater
on Seventh street will open Monday
night, Oct. "a, unless something unfore-
seen happens. f. B. Henderson, super
intendent of construction for the Or
pheum circuit, arrived today to direct
the completion and equipment OF the
playhouse.
The Orpheum opening, he says, will
be society event. At Denver, where
the circuit recently opened a new thea
ter, and in New Orleans the society set
stamped the venture with approval with
a spontaneous turnout the first night in
evening dress. 1t is expected that Min
neapolis will follow the fashion.
Mr.. Henderson, in consultation with
Walter L. Badger, the real estate man,
selected the site of the new theater and
watched it's beginnings until the founda-
ton was laid. He naturally takes great
interest in the Minneapolis house and is
anxious for the backing Of the Oest
class Of amusement lovers. He said
this morning:
eve have become taxpayers in Min
neapolis. We have first put our money
in here before taking any out. Like
every merchant in other lines we de-
liver the goods and give value received,
for which we expect to get compensa--
people of Minneapolis and we believe
they will put the stamp of approval on
the first night s performance.
"The Orpheum Circuit is catering to
the people who love good, pure amuse:
ment, and it gives bargain sale at all
times, and that has been our success.
Gin coming into this city, the Or
pheum people have expended some
100000 and have erected beautiful
theater. We have made it point tc
expend the money 50 that it all has gone
to Minneapolis men--from the hodcar
riers up to the head contractors and
architect. We have become a perma
nent fixture in Minneapolis.
The electric wiring will be done by
local firms; the contracts for draperies
carpets. decorations, ETC., has been lei
here. He reports that the relief work
is being put on in the theater interior
and that the auditorium floor is being
laid. Mr.. Henderson says the company
is going even beyond the building re
quirements in regard to freproofing and
emergency exits.
G. E. Bray, who has overseen the
work for two months, has returned tc
New Orleans with Mrs. Bray to oper
the ST. Charles Orpheum theater. Mr.
Henderson has just come from season
at Coney Island, where he owns a the
alter and restaurant we'll known as the
largest individual holding establishment

Church Emissary Appeals to
American State Department
for Protection.

little isle that barely a1I lifts its head head
above the azure water of the South
Seas may prove the subject of interna-
protection sent by J. Schnelling, an
American missionary, to the state de-
partment at Washington, can move the
federal officials to action. 1t is the Ger
man government that the missionary
complains of, for the kaiser's men have
coral island of Ruk in the Caroline
group. He refuses to be dispossessed
of that which he claims is his own, and
he has sought the aid of this govern
ment:
Captain o. Anderson of the mission
yesterday from the Caroline islands,
was the bearer of a letter written by
Schnelling to Secretary of State Hay,
In which the missionary states his case
and asks for the protection of the
American government.
For many years Schnelling has been
virtually king in the cocoanut groves
of the little island. He has pursued his
missionary work among the natives with
such good results that he now owns
pearls and corals. His power and rights
have been undisputed up to the present
Time, and yearly he collected the reve-
nue. from the yield of copra. The ma.
tives worked for him and were satisfied
with their master.
And now the Germans want the island
along with the rest of the Caroline
group, and Schnelling has been ordered
to go. Schnelling states that he will
only leave when compelled to and
efforts to remove him. Captain Ander-
son of the Vine yesterday told of the
attempts of the German government to
remove schnelling from .Ruk. He said:
"Schnelhng is a missionary who has
lived on Ruk for more than ten years:
He boarded my vessel when we called
at the island, and gave me the letter
that now have, and which I shall send
on to Washington. According to Schnel-
ling 8 story he owns the island, having
German traders have been trying, to
force him to leave, and finally the Ger
man government ordered him to go. He
remained on the island, however, and
states that he will remain there until he
gets word from Washington
The schooner Vine is sivty- days
from Ponape, and since. leaving here
many months ago has visited the islands
of the Caroline, Marshall and Gilbert
groups. Twice during the voyage the
vessel was ashore on the coral reefs. but
both times she escaped with little dam
age. The Vine was chartered by the
American Board of Foreign Missions
and on board were three missionarie:
who have been in the South Sea islands
for the past seven years. They were
the Rev. Mahihila and wife, who are
Hawaiians: and Miss Jennie DIN.
Charles Banker. the second mate Of
the schooner, died on the voyage ant
was buried in the Gilbert Islands. The
Vine brings the news of strike among
the native copra pickers of the Mar
shall Islands. One hundred natives re
fused to work unless paid four marks {
