DR. FREDERIC A. COOK
 ARRIVES IN SEWARD
Mag Who Scaled Mt. Mckinley Over Long Slope of Ice and Snow
 Now on Way Outside.

Dr. Frederic A. Cook, the man who ascended Mt. Mckinley last month and stood on its topmo,J pinnacle, 0,4OO feet above sea level, in temperature of I6 degrees below zero, arrived in Seward Sunday on the steamer Dora. He will sail for the outside tomorrow on the Bertha with the re- mainder of his party, who are await ing the steamer in Seldovia.
 Dr. Cook, as already told, reached the top of the mountain, the highest in North America. September l5, ac- companjed by Edward Barriu. The ascent was made from the northeast side. instead of the southeast, as was surmised when the news first came. He and his companions went mp the Tokositna river 10 the head of one of it's branches. where they found a huge glacier. Proceeding directly across it they found a long slope which proved 10 be free from precipit0uS decliyities. It was covered with deep ice and snow put Dr. Cook says no unusual obstacles to mountain climbing in frigid regions were encountered.
 So far as Dr. Cook could observe from occasional projections of rock which were too sharp for snow tocling 70 the mountain seemed to be almost wholly composed of pink granite. Some observations of the altitude were taken, and these with uiangulationS made previously by the topographer of the expedition Mir. Porter, indicate that the night calculated by govern ment topographers and railroad engl- neers, 2O,3OO feet, is very accurate, although Mir. Porter's calculations may finally put it at O,4O0. The east erly pinnacle, which Dr.. Cook climbed, is 200 or 300 feet higher than the west erly one.

The quartz is sugar-grained, Hve-looking, impregnated with gold plainly dis cernible to the naked eye. The gold ore in the sylvanite form is even rich CT than the gold quartz, and when treated with acids the specimens look like nuggets of gold,

That New Electric Line.

Announcement is made that papers
of consolidation of three railroads in
different parts of Pennsylvania will be
filed at Harrisburg, Pa, involving a
project Of prominent bankers associat-
ed with Joseph Ramsey, Jr.. former
president of the Wabash railroad. to
build a double track railroad from
New York to Chicago by way of Pitts
burg, which will cost about S15O,OOO,-
coo.
1t is claimed by promoters that sur
veys have been made and that actual
construction will begin this fall. So
many railroads are projected, and so
many of them fall through. the public
is justly skeptical about all promised
roads, but the claims for this line are
supported by a statement from trust
worthy men behind the movement.
Most interesting, however. is the
plan to operate with electric Iocomo-
tives. In these progressive days and
days of astonishing invention, the per
lection of electric locomotives that can
compete with the steam locomotive of
today, is more than reasonable.

Millions Spent to
Make Clean Beer
Cleanest Manufacturing Process Is
That of An American Brewery.

We regard beer as n food and the
business of brewing beer one of our
most important Industries. When we
tell our readers that without exception
SO absolutely clean in it's process of
manufacture as Pabst, we speak from
exact knowledge of conditions. The
monster PabSt Brewery at Milwaukee
represents an outlay OF millions of
dollars and many of those millions
have been expended to make the Pabst
exclusive process absolutely clean.
Pabst Beer stands alone today, the only
food product that from the beginning
to the end of it's manufacture is abso-
lutely beyond reach of even the con-
Eliminating germs of the air.
Doctors boil their instruments in
water to sterilize them. Pabst boils
his brew in closed kettles and thus
sterilizes it. From there 1T passes
through sterilized pipes to sterilized
is fermented. Then through more
steriliZed pipes it goes to sterilized
Theoretically sealed storage tanks
and when bottled it is pasteurized.
Throughout the entire process it never
is touched by human hands and comes
in contact only with SteriliZed air.
This process of manufacture is the
exclusive PabSt method. 1t is one rea-
son for the always the same, always
the best" reputation of Pabst Beer.
beer, Pabst Beer has no equal as a
mild, healthfuI beverage. 1t is brewed
only from Pabst eight-day malt,
choicest hops and pure water. Pabst
eight-day malt, the perfect malt, con-
tains all the food qualities of the finest
high food value and the Pabst eXclu-
siVe process of brewing and thoroughly
aging the beer, that gives Pabst beer it's
rich, mellow flavor, its refreshing zest.
