WATER
 SUPPLY FROZEN

Nome is threatened with another destructive fire, according to a late paper from that. city, The water pumping plant is out of commission, at least, and in case of fire, but little resistence could be offered, The paper says:
 The suction for the big fire pump at the electric plant was demolished last Wednesday afternoon by the ice jam and at the present time it is i'm possible to get stream of water for fire fighting purposes except by the little La France engine which has been kept in service night and day since the accident The ice pack drifting in close to shore Wednesday crushed the pier recently built out into the water distance of eighty five feet, breaking the suction pipe in two places,-Juneau Dispatch.

WATER MAINS
 STILL 0PEN

By hard work and the constant use of the steam thawer the town officials have kept the water mains from freez ing as yet, and with the exception of the hydrauts at Second and Main and Fourth and Main every hydrant in Skagway is available for fire protec. don. There is very weak pressure on the main running from Seventh and Broadway to the court house At the time of going to press the steam thawer was working on this main.
 The frost has penetrated more than seven feet in the ground and had it not been for the constant use of the steam thawers the mains would have certainly frozen days ago. Mayor Shea stated this afternoon that if the high wind continued he would put on several watchmen tonight to patrol the town on the lookout for fires.

~ Il is a good thing to remember
n In connection with the honors
now being paid to Wilbur and
Orville Wright as n%avigators of
the air that they did not go abroad
to market their invention until they
had tried In vain all emu of sue
cess at home. Had the United States
government some five or six years ago
been as eager as it is now to reap
the benefit of the ingenuity OF the
Wrights 1t might have made their
aeroplane a government monopoly.
something which would have given
America a marked advantage over
other nations in developing the science
of aerial warfare. The brothers Of
fered their invention to the United
States for its exclusive use and owner
ship for a term of years at a cost
which would have enabled the govern
ment to build 5000 aeroplanes, each
capable of carrying 200 pounds Of
dynamite. for about one-fortieth what
1t would expend in building a single
battleship. With such an aerial fleet
in its possession the United States
would be as invineible in the warfare
of the air as Great Britain is now
supposed to be upon the sea. or would
perhaps be still more superior to other
powers in this respect. But the Wright
brothers were supposed to be only q
couple of cranks in those days, and
the golden opportunity was lost.
An incident in connection with the
honors for the Wright brothers a
their home in Ohio, Dayton, and a
the national capital indicates what {

gives to all matters pertaining to hi
administration and how alive he Is t

In a minute the president had di-

there was a conversation which, ac-

this at the White House end:

rightfully his. After having been for
