REORGANIZATION
Alaska Copper Company of Cop permount Completes Deal
 With Eastern Capitalists

Again has the copper properties of the Ketchikan mining district attracted the attention of eastern capital with the result that fully two and one-half million of dollars will be expended here with, in the next few months. This time it is the reorgan- ization of the Alaska Copper Co.,. which combined with monied Duluth, Minnesota, men have effected the foundation of company hereafter to be styled the Alaska Consolidated Mining X Smelling Go. incorporated under the laws of the state of Min nesota.
 The new company takes over all the holdings of the old company including both shelter, mining properties and leases, and in return assumses the en- tire indebtedness of the old company and furnishes capital to carry on the work in the future. F. w. Hale re- tires from the head of the company, but who his successor or the direc- torate are to be, has not as yet been made public. But this much is assur- ed that the new company is composed of some of the most prominent copper men of the middle west, with head quarters at Duluth, Minnesota. The capital stock of the company is named at S2, 300, ,000 with privilege of in- creasing same at will. It is the com pany's intention to invest heavily in copper properties in this locality as they wish to increase the size of the Coppermount shelter and to make such move good one, financially, more producing properties are necessary. They have had their men up in this district for some time and purchases are sure to follow their investigations. This move will mean a great deal for this district as money in large quantities is necessary for the development of our properties here and the coming in of concern of this nature, will, as success crowns their efforts, draw the attention of men of their kind to our resources and more outside capital will thus be interested. There is no denying the fact that we have the ore and the values here and all that is necessary to prove it in scorce of places is the investment of money through com pan1es in the hands of men competent to bring about the desired result. This is our great need, and day by day we see that we are getting nearer the goal. We must bear in mind |. too that the success of our company makes easier the success of the others in the district; while it's failure makes more difficult the road of others to success.

SULZER LOADING ORE.

The Norwegian steamer Haldis under charter of Mackenzie Bros., of Vancouver, B. C. arrived Tuesday afternoon and after entering at the local custom house left for Sulzer where she is now loading the 5000 tons of copper ore there, awaiting transportation to the shelter. Charles A. Sulzer the efficient manager of the company, is to be congratulated upon securing the steamer which is large enough to take all the ore he now has at the dock at one cargo. He had tremendous amount of trouble in securing boat having waited in fact ever since the middle of Decem- Der for her. On the last trip but one south, of the Amur he went down to Vancouver where atfer consultation with the Mackenize's he got con- tract with them and as soon as the Haldis arrived from Japan she was sent north. Mr. Sulzer was on board to see that nothing intervened this time, as had happened before, to stop him shipping.
 It is reported that the Mackenize's have contracted for big slice of the White Pass railroads freight bus mess and will make a regular thing of carriyng ore on the return trips of their two steamers, the Henriette and Haldis.
 This will unquestionably relieve the congested condition existing at so many of the properties in this dis trict as they will be able to handle fully 5000 tons per month.
 The Maine mine at Hadley is run ing to it's full capacity again, having encountered some difficulty in getting together crew after the shut down. This trouble is now over, however, and the mine is rapidly coming up to it's old record of 100 tons per day. The ore now being trammed to the shelter bringing fine returns in copper. Considerable development work has been done recently which with the diamond drill propecting shows that this property increases in richness as greater depth is reached. John Hampson, the superintendent of the mine is demonstrating that the old Mamie is money maker and will long stay in that list. The Portland Canal properties on the Brown Alaska Co. have run steadily all winter, the ore from there holding up to the high values of the fall. The fine quality of this ore as flux is apparent when the high copper contents of the matte now being turned out at Hadley are seen. The last batch is said to have

CONDITIONS UNCHANGED.

H. c. Strong, returned on the Prin- cess Beatrice from his trip south, Sunday, while there Mr. Strong in- vestigated the coal situation and re- ports little if any improvement. He says the mines are not able to get the coal out of the ground fast enough to supply the demand and continued shortage is inevitable. .The cause of the shortage, said Mr. Strong, ''is not that the amount of coal mined has been curtailed, but because of the increase in the number of steamers plying on the coast. A few years ago, these big tramp boats were an un- usual sight now there are nearly a score of them at the various ports of the Sound loading O. unloading. Each one of these fellows requires from SOC to 1500 tons of coal to fill their bunk CTS and the mine people seem inclin- ed to supply their wants in preference to supplying the needs of the ordinary market. They reason that, if we have to, we can burn wood, while these boats must tie up unless coal is forth coming.
 "Construction work on our new steamer, the Northland, is held up at present owing to the nonarrival of steel which is tied up somewhere east of the mountainhs in the snow block ade. The work on her machinery is going on, however, and her builders say that they will have her out according to contract which calls fol delivery some time during the month of June. The Northland will be built of steel throughout, with double bottom and will be without a superior on the coast except as to size.
 Bought Five Scows. The Ketchikar Power Co. were the successful bidders in the sale of the five scows offered by the government at the Lincoln Rock light house recently. The Wig liant brought down three of then Tuesday morning, the other two will have to be repaired before making the trip.

In Adam, grip was found an Identification cart issued to Adams by the Pacific Coast stewards and Cooks Association which stated that his nearest relation was his daughter at the address giver above. Mr. Ryus wrote to the ad dress with above results.

The Haidah Copper Co. has some specimens of copper ore on exhibition at the Hotel Revilla which are pretty sure to open the eye of even the casual observer to the future of that company's holdings at Karta Bay. Victor Vigelines the manager of the company left on the last south bound boat for the sound whether he went to secure future equipment The com pany's new wharf is completed and the ore bins practically so while the tram from the mine to the beach is nearly completed the steamer Mar ion taking over lumber therfor on her last trip to Kasaan. ray points, Tuesday of this week.
 An Eighty Foot Shaft. The Nib lack Copper Co. put on ten more men this week, materially increasing their crew. The new men will be put to work sinking an so foot shaft down from the 220 level This work is to be pushed two shifts per day and it is expected will be all the way in ore. When completed, this shaft, with the laterals now contemplated, will enable the company to get out con- siderably more ore than they are now doing.
 George Green, the enterprising manager of the Hadley Consolidated Copper Co. at Hadley is expected back from the Sound shortly and work at the Stevenstown mine will recom- mence. Work was stopped Christmas time owing to the coal shortage. But this property turns out too high d grade of ore for it to lie dormant long with the prices of copper hitting the high places the way it is now doing.

Change In Name Only.
washington Herald

From the Washington Herald.
 There was christening yesterday at the gray limestone mansion of Surgeon General Wyman of the public health and marine hospital service.
 In reality 1t was a rechristening, the victim of the ceremony being no less able bodied citizen than the yellow fever mosquito, heretofore known In refined so- ciety as Stegomyla fasciata. General Wy man asks the world to sit up and take no- tice that this gentleman, who figures so prolifically in the dispatches and notes of the monthly public health bulletins. will hereafter be known as Stegomyia calopus.
 The change of name, however, does not bring about any change of function on the part of the mosquito, In the language of marine hospital service wit, "A Stegomyia fasciata by any other name will look just as yellow" The male will continue to hum noisily and skim around on dress parade in his silver stripes. while the fever carrying female sa has been her lot since primal days, will busiiy buzz about, making trouble for man.

She coquettes with him, however, as she does with half dozen others. Betsy leaves the springs ignorant of Jerome's true personality, deeply offended with him because of his refusal to accompany her party to Baltimore, where great prepara- tions are being made for the reception of Captain Bonaparte. It is here at an elaborate fete given in his honr that Betsy first discovers that her tutor ana the much talked of brother of Napoleon are one. Previous to this discovery, her pride overcome by the ardent wooing of her supposed, Betsy has confessed her love for him.
 They are betrothed and the rest of the play deals with the efforts of Napoleon agents to prevent their marriage, their fruitless voyage to France, where Napo- leon refused to allow Betsy to lana ana the final happy triumph of the lovers.

From the posi- tion of a Baltimore belle, whose wit, pride and rather daring independence made her the admiring comment of all fashionable society in America, she sprang suddenly into international notice by her marriage with Jerome Bonaparte, the brother of Napoleon, just at the time when he was proclaimed Emperor of the French.

 It has absorbed the interest of society and the theatregoing public in general, and the Shuberts have been most untir- ing in their efforts to give Miss Manner ing a splendid company and beautiful production.

TRY ENGLISH STROKE.
since Returning from Henley ArEo-
nauts Have shown Improvement.

Another instance Of the influence Of
the English rowing stroke on a crew Wis
iting Henley was that of the Argonauts in
their work shown at Philadelphia recent
ly, said a college oarsman the other day
up 10 the time of the Canadians visit
TO England, last year, their style was
hit-or-miss. slash-bang sort of stroke
without the least method whatever, the
oarsmen depending on their strength 10
get the speed out of the boat
The crew that rOWed at Worcester in
the national regatta last year had not
tune TO annex the English stroke, but this
years eight had its most vital points.
They did not swing too far back and had
a quick recovery, and in reaching for the
stroke carried the blade low and hori-
zontal 20 the water. The blade entered
the water sQuarely and rather shallow,
and then there was a good leg drive fol-
lowed By a sharp heave. which altogether
made a combination by no means ex-
hausting and very effective for sending
the shell along at a fine rate of speed
Much the same stroke was used by the
New York Athletic Club, but the Mercury
foot men swung a trife too much and
their blades were a little longer in the air.
which accounted for the space which sep
arated them at the finish. So you see il IS
good for our oarsmen to go to Henley.
They learn something. After Courtney s
visit with Cornell he dropped his old dom
key-engine stroke and narrowed his blades,
hence his success ever since.
