RAILROADS IN ALASKA.

Alaska was in great part an un-
known land twenty years ago. Except
on the coast. there were no settle.
ments. Today Alaska has nine short
railroads leading TO interior regions.
A report on Alasias transportation
facilities for the last year, states that
the advancement Of several railways.
among which were the railways to
the Matnuska coal fields and to the
inland copper fields from both Valdez
and Katalla, which have been actively
pushed during 1907, were greatly re-
tarded by the unfavorable financial
conditions; but In gratifying contrast
TO the slow headway made by these
enterprises was the rapid progress
made by a railway being built up
Copper river from Cordova. This line
| was completed to Childs Glacier In
| September. In connection with this
road steamers are to be run from Alb
ercrombie Rapids. so that during the
coming year 1t Will be possible to
avoid the long overland Journey from
the coast to reach the Chitina copper
belt. AS the railways in Alaska are

MAN AND WIFE
FOUND DEAD IN BED

Fort Collins. Colo, Jan. Ill. G.
Welles, field superintendent for the
Fort Collins Beet Sugar factory. and
his wife were found dead In bed tnis
morning at their home about two miles
from this city. Apparently both had
been overcome by coal gas, Welles
had an engagement In Fort Collins
Yesterday and his failure to keep the
engagement led to search and the dis
covery of the bodies. The door OF
the stove was open, a hole had been
burned in the floor and rugs near by
were badly burned. That the house
was not burned down and the bodies
cremnted is considered a mystery.
Before coming to Fore Collins, MI
Welles and his wife lived In Nebraska.
Both were about 43 years of age.

Dlvlno Suit with Laced-Up Lea,

Blowing up" is one Of the accidents
to which deep water divers are the
most liable. When a diver is crawling
on the bottom with his head down. air
may accumulate In the back of the
suit, and. gaining access to the legs,
cause him to turn turtle and shoot
helplessly upward, with the risk OF
coming into contact with a ships or
boats bottom. To make such acci.
dents impossible the diving committee
Of the English admiralty has recon-
mended that all new diving suits be-
provided with an arrangement for lac
ing up the legs and thighs.
