Under a scare head, "Glacier in Alas ka on a Ram page" the Seattle Star prints an account of the reported Gn- tics of Child's glacier, which is situated on the line of the Copper River < Northwestern railway about 40 miles from Cordova. According to the re port, which, by the way, comes from the rival town of Katalla, on the night of February 10th either the Child's or the Miles glacier-there is no certainty which-suddenIy discharged about twenty acres of water. Great masses of ice were piled on the railroad track for distance of four miles, completely wrecking the bridge across the Copper river at that point. It is estimated that the damage to railroad property will amount to s1,OO0,OOO, besides the work of clearing away the wreck. Hawkins, the railroad contractor, will immediately take the unrGly glacier in hand and undertake to reform it's con- duct by damming.

Some Comparative Figures

Comparative figures of 1894 and the present tell the story of development:
 In 1894 two steamers operated to Alaska from Seattle and third was added; from San Francisco one trading vessel was sent out annually
 At the present time there are twenty three large steamers engaged in trade between Seattle and Alaska, including the Southeast, Southwest and Boring sea routes.
 In 1894 the amount of freight shipped from Seattle to Alaska totaIed 18,OOO tors. In 1908 Seattle shipped to Alaska 376,415 tons of cargo. Iu addition to this l19,774 tons were shipped from British territory. Ia 1894 not one ton went North from British Colum bia.
 Iu 1894 the money invested in three steamers operating to Alaska amounted to S15O,OOO. At the present time at least S5.OOO,OOO is invested in Alaska tonnage.
 In 1894 there was no trade between Seattle and Boring sea. Last year this port shipped to Boring sea merchan disc valued at 15,O66,3l8.
 During the coming season it is eX- pected that business between Seattle, St. Michael and Nome will show an in- crease of at least 50 per cent over that of last year, when merchants were not purchasing heavily. Transportation men anticipate good summer. With the active building to be done op the Copper River railroad and the influx of people to that country, business to Cordova and adjacent ports is also eX- pected to be the best in the history of .he North.-Seattle P.-I.

Ketchikan History.

To reporter of the Daily Miner, in an interview with Mr. M. E. Martin, who was rightfully named "tbe father of Ketchikan," when asked to tell us about the flag that he prizes so highly, and can't be bought for money, sald' "Yes, will tell you about it.
 "In 1885 l was hunting on Gravlna island and our shoes, and in fact, all our clothing, gave out, so 1 had to come to this place to get seal skin to make moccasins At that time saw chance for trading post here for all the h. dians passed by on their way 70 Port Simpson to trade The Indians either had to go o WlangelI or Port Simpson if they wanted any hing in the shape of white mems goods.
 "In those days there were but few wGite Weu in this part of Alaska and no white women at all In fact, did not see the face of white woman in ten years, and then only when the boats went by and did not stop. At such times we could see them wave their handkerchiefs at us. Those were times that everyone coming into your camp was welcome 10 sit down aud have little talk and get the best in he house bacon aud beans-and how we did enjoy it.
 "Well, there were four white men here when we raised the flag that was seen on my lawn on Washington's birthday. It was raised ou the 4th of July, 1887 o. w. Grant, who is now marshal in Ketchikau; J. l.. Campbell, 1 who is now in Portland, aud Jack Law ler who is now in Fairbanks, helped me to put up the flag and the flag staff on the corner of the old store that stood where the flag pole now stands.
 "Why, yes, if leave Ketchikan the 1 flag goes to the city. It may go down in history, and know it will be taken care of If anyone in those days had ] told me that l would see the change that has come here, l would uot have 1 believed them.
 "See what we have now, Two first. class hotels, telegraph office and wire less station, a daily newspaper, and it would rot surprise me to see in less than five years street cars running ! here.
 "Why, twenty years ago my sister wrote ne from New York and it was fourteen mouth, before got the letter. There were but three postottices in Southeastern Alaska, one at Juneau, one at Sitka aud one at WraEgell. It cost the government five dollars for every letter that was delivered in Alas ka. So you see if the people keep con- ing into Alaska for the next twenty years as hey have been, there will be great future for Ketchikan."
 This is the prophecy of M. E. Martin.
