COT FAT IN ALASKA
Weak Woman Returns From
North in Good Health

When Mrs. Elizabeth Kruger, of
1920 Weide avenue, went to Dawson
City, Alaska, in 1902. she weighed 81
pounds, and was supposed to have con-
sumption.
Mrs. Kruger has been here visiting
her mother at the above address for
month past. Yesterday she was weigh
ed and the scales showed 10 pounds.
Mrs. Kruger got it all in the Klondike,
and is going back there next week.
we live twenty miles above Daw
son, where my father has three claims
and my brother six" said Mrs Krue-
ger to T he G o b e. 1T is a mistake
to suppose, as many people do, that
women are few in Alaska. There are
plenty OF women in Dawson, and So
ciety is as good there as you will find
it anywhere. We have plenty of good
neighbors, and While 1 admit the win
ters are a little too cold for comfort,
people build houses better than they
do here and manage to keep the cold
out very we'll.
4 have seen it 40 below zero on our
place for five weeks at a stretch, and
summer is only two months long. Even
during the summer nearly everybody
wears furs. The peaks are covered
with snow throughout the summer.
When we first went out there it was
a case of everybody pitch in. 1 did as
much outdoor work as any of the men,
and in six months 1 was so strong that
1 did not know myself. 1 thought
nothing of jerking sled with supplies
over the trail for. thirty miles, and
often have done better than that"
Mrs. Kruger leaves for Seattle Sat-
urday, and expects to get into Dawson
by spring.

WILL PROBE DANCES
New TerpsichOrean Variations
to Be investigated

The Woman's league is out to put
stop to certain diversions declared to
be popular in St. Paul and Minneapolis
dance halls. Communications have
been sent TO Mayor Smith and Mayor
Jones. of Minneapolis, requesting these
executives to investigate the charac-
ter of dances most in vogue in the pub
lie halls and TO take measures for the
suppression of the s'halftime" dances,
which are declared to be evil in their
conception and immoral in their in
fiuence upon human beings, especially
to those of immature age.
The communication insists that
along with the slow time of the dan
cling features that develop out of il are
colloquially referred to as ''the low
grab and grip and the Greek wiggle."
These are pointed out to be out
rageously unconventional demonstra-
tions of an unauthorized delSarte that
belongs to dances of this sort and tre-
mendously evil in their effects on
young persons.
Neither the mayor nor the police
know anything about the low grab
and grip" or the Greek wriggle," but
since the matter has been called TO the
attention of the authorities they will
doubtless study these movements for
future reference
Professors OF dancing assert that the
low grab so called, is merely the
taking of firmer hold on ones part
ner, necessitated by the slow measure.
1t may under certain conditions become
Objectionable, but among we'll bred
people there is nothing to criticise in
1t. The Greek wriggle'' is described
as the development of a desire TO get
buster than the music calls for on the
part of enthusiastic dancers in the
less exalted circles Of society.

LOST ON THE DESERT.
Herman Kuchlcr has Hard Exper-
fence Trying to Find Sheep Camp.

ogden, Dec. 21.-Herman Kuchler,
The sheep man, had a rather thrilling
experience last week out In the noun
lains near Grouse creek, about leo
miles northwest of Ogden. He had
gone out TO Kelton. and from there
took a vehicle To go out near Halls
mountains to look after band of
sheep. shortly after leaving Kelton,
when he had gotten up into the noun
talns, fog came up from the lake and
snyeloped the entire mountain around
where he was driving. II became so
dense that he could drive no further
bis team having already taken the
wrong trail. Without either food for
himself or his team, Mr.. kuchler
tamped by the roadside over night. The
next morning 1t was clear, and TO his
surprise he had got on to a road that
led him back almost to Kelton, his
starting point to which place he drove.
lie suffered from the cold so much
during the night that IL took him sew
eral days to recuperate SO he could re-
new the journey to the sheep.
