Moving Pictures Last Night.

Archie L. Shepard's moving pictures
last night was even better, as whole,
than ever. Nearly all of the pictures
were new and all of them are bright,
interesting and pleasing. This form
of entertainment holds a fascination
that is hard to describe and hard to
beat. There are so many good things
in connection with Shepard's moving
pictures that it is hard to name the
best ones-they were all good

"Buster Brown "

Mark Twain once said there is
nothing in the world like a boy unless
it is another boy" 1t is the direct
application of the above trite saying
that enables one to solve the question
as to the limitless popularity of R. F.
Outcault's famous boy character, Bus
ter Brown. 1t is because Buster is
the living, breathing proto type OF
many another boy.
Grandfather recognizes Buster s
traits of fun and mischief at once and
is carried back TO the days of some
of his own pranks. The youngsters
admire Buster because he is a manly
little chap worthy of youthful admi-
ration and emulation. 1t is because
the character Buster Brown is real
hoy that we love him, and 1t is for
the reason that those who exploit
him in play form have surrounded
him with clever people supplied with
gorgeous costumes. catchy songs and
music and pretty girls, that the pub
lie has accorded such hearty patron
age TO the stage.
Buster will be seen at the opera
house here tonight.

Reid May Lose Out

Washington, D. C., Dec, 19-Judge Silas H. Reid of Oklahoma will not be appointed judge of the Third judicial division of Alaska. For reasons not given out the president has decided not to make the full term appointment following Judge Reid's recess appoint ment. It is believed that objection has been made by influences in the senate which might prevent Reid's confirmation. The hitch has been a mystery ever since the assembling Of congress, as it was expected that Reid would be promptly nominated and con- frmed.
 Judge Nathan V. Harlan, district attorney for the Third division, is here trying to land the appointment for judge. He has strong inducements but will be opposed by Gov. Hoggatt, and charges are pending against him that he has not kept gambling closed tight in Valdez and other towns of the Third division.

Norfolk, Va, Dec. l6-All the bat tleships of the Pacific fleet were mag nificently decorated early this morn ing for the start on the long cruise to the western ocean.

Immediately after ward the fleet set sail led by the gun boat Dolphin with the president aboard, to the Virginia cape, where the Dolphin gave way to the flagship Connecticut and saluted as the sixteen big warships formed in double line and moved out on a Southward course. The Dolphin then returned.
 The spectacle was witnessed by many thousands of people on shore and following the fleet in excursion boats to the cape. The journey of the big fleet to the Pacific coast IS regarded as the supreme test of the American navy and has awakened surpassing in- terest on the Atlantic shore.

 Kodiak, Nov. 26-Kodiak island and the adjacent peninsula seem to be per meated with valuable mineral deposits, chiefly gold and copper. This fact is becoming more apparent each year as enterprising prospectors make explora- tions. Only recently has prospecting been done by men who were willing to endure hardships to find something. The early proSpectors paddled along the shore and looked up the hills but any attempt to climb looked too much like work.
 A few months ago large quartz ledge, said to be true Assure vein, carrying gold and copper in good values, was found near Ouzinkl, Kodiak island.
 Mir. Wanberg, an old prospector, came here recently with two men representing capital to look at quartz gold deposit which he located ten years ago at the head of Uyak bay. It is said to be free milling ore of good grade, the ledge varying from seventy to several hundred feet in width. It has been traced fourteen miles.
 Beach prospecting has been done all around the island and fair returns in placer gold have been taken from the son6S

Carries Copper Stream

A stream runs out of the mountain containing this ledge, starting three quarters of a mile from the sea and is deeply stained with copper. In 1898 two Chignik natives who were hunting on the island failed to return and when search was made for them their dead bodies were found besides the copper tainted stream. It was supposed that they were poisoned by drinking the water. Since then no native will go to the island
 Still farther westward a rich gold strike has been made on Popotf island by Louis Herman, near the Apollo mine which was worked proftably for many years until the ledge was lost in a fault. Herman has refused S2OO, ,OOG for his property,
 Other valuable discoveries have been made in many places of both gold and copper. No attempt is being made to boom the country. No railroads are building and no townsites are adver- tised. The development is strictly le- gitimate mining.
Seward weekly gateway., 1907-12-21
Copper On Peninsula

On the peninsula across from Kodiak island rich copper ore has been found, carrying gold also. Assays of this ore have shown from SIP to SlOO ton. One ton of ore taken from the tunnel and sent to the Tacoma shelter assay ed S43 copper and $4 gold. This prop erty belongs to Kodiak men. Other lodges found in that vicinity show good ore and it is regarded as a fine field for prospectors.
 Farther westward the Nekeverotf brothers of Kodiak discovered what is claimed to be the largest copper de- posit ever found in Alaska. The mere surface prospect was sold to w. l.. Warner of San Diego for S4O,OOO. An immense slide from a mountain re- veals body of ore which is computed to contain $lO,OOO,OOO in copper on the basis of assays made. ,This is on Pros pect bay, where there is a fine harbor, and the deposits begin at the waters edge.
 Several discoveries were made this year by Kodiak men on the island of Nukehemik, about four miles by water from the Warner property. It is believed that the ledge is the same as the Warner ledge, extending under the water from the island to the mainland. The ore is similar and that on the island seems to be of higher grade than the other.

Then, too, it will be some time be- fore you can get my successor to Alas ka and l shall deem it my duty to keep court in active progress until you can do so. My successor can come into Fairbanks, via Valdez, at any time after January first, 1908, and could take the oath of office at Val dez. It is highly necessary to keep court open in that way.
 I have the honor, therefore, to re- quest that my resignation as district judge of Alaska, third division, be ac- cepted to take effect not later than March 1st, 1908.

FAMOUS LETTER
 OF W|CKERSHAM
Text of Resignation Sent by Third Division Judge
 on Retirement.

Following is Judge Wickersham's letter of resignation, in which he tells the president that he is weary of the fight to hold an office less profitable to him than private law practice. The presidents reply accepting the resig- nation with expressions of regret, IS also printed. It will be observed that Judge Wickersham explicitly charges that Gov. Hoggatt turned against him because he decided case against friend of the governors. Judge Wick ersham's letter is dated Juneau, Sep tember, ', 1907. He says:
 wish to resign the office of district judge of Alaska, to which you have so frequently appointed me. Several things make it desirable to do so at this time, besides the fact that 1 am poor man and now have reasonable and proper opportunity to re-enter the law practice with a fair prospect of accommodating small competence be- fore opportunity fails or old age over takes me.
 The first of these is that it seems hopeless to expect those senators who have opposed my confirmation to ever cease to do so.
 Crossed Governors Friend
 At a recent term of court held by me at Juneau, Alaska, upon special re- quest of the attorney-general, 1 had the misfortune to decide an important case involving the career of young lawyer, in way contrary to Governor Hoggatt's views. Thereupon the gov ernor withdrew his friendship, which I had highly valued, and criticised me so that his loss of confidence became pubical;y known. His view was both unjust and presumptuous, but hls op- position and refusal to support the court added greatly to my burden.
 have greatly desired a confrma- tion by the senate of your action in reappointing me as judge in this front fer district, but I now think it is vain to expect it. However, since you have approved my services by several recess reapointments and have thus repeat edly given your high endorsement thereto, and since the senate would have confirmed by a large majority except for the rule of unanimous consent which permitted two senators to prevent it, I shall bear this injus- tice with patience.
 do not wish to abandon my post, however, without your consent, nor until you can supply my successor. By repeatedly appointing me in the face of opposition you have assumed re- sponsibility that places me under such obligations that 1 do not wish my resignation accepted without it is en- tirely satisfactory to you.
 Wants Successor Soon
 Then, too, it will be some time be- fore you can get my successor to Alas ka and I shall deem it my duty to keep court in active progress until
