They put in a convincing word for their

When this became known the President
was besieged upon his arrival here by

saw the Sewanee team make the nnai

with apparent ease. Thence the President

ment and development of microbes to be

The wreck of the steamer Ohio in MIbank sound last Thursday morning came as a severe shock to the people of Southeastern Alaska. Especially dur ing the summer season are the waters of the inland passage considered safe from the dangers that ordinarily beset the ships that go down to he sea. But here we have a wreck accompanied by a serious loss of life right at the close of a season that has been exceptionally free from accidents of any kind. In years past news of disaster has come to us by the slow agency of the mail, but now the wireless has eclipsed even the cable. Such help in time of shipwreck and danger is inestim- able, and DO doubt many lives are saved thereby. In the case of the Ohio the noble operator stuck to his post until the sinking ship carried him down into the black waters. He gave his life for others. It is also learned tbat the officers and mem berS or the ere" nOOly did their duty in caring for the lives of the passengers entrusted to their charge. Yet the loss is keenly felt and there will be those who attach blame for the accident, perhaps to the pilot who stood on the bridge on that dark night and lost his bearings, or the gov ernment because of insufficient guides to navigation along the way.> The i'm importance of the many lives and the millions of dollars worth of property that are carried along this course should merit a careful investigation of conditions so that, if it be possible, such disasters msy be avoided in the future.

The Treadwe1I Foundry

The Alaska Treadwell Gold Mining company has recently completed on Douglas Island new foundry, which, to quote representative of foundry supply house of San Francisco, is one of the most up-to-date institutions of the kind to be seen on the Pacific coast
 The building, which cost something like S2O,OOO, stands on the water front opposite the Mexican mine on "made ground" formed by the dumping of waste ore. The excellent drainage in almost all directions keeps the ground always dry, which is in itself very im- portant item.
 The nam structure is 40x60 feet, with two additions, one 25x4O feet, used for the snap floor and core room, and one 5Ox35 feet, in which we find the cupola, dry room and the room for cleaning castings. Large windows on four sides of the building furnish an abundance of light and ventilators in the roof serve to carry off the gas and smoke and keep the air clear and pure. The building is framed and constructed of Alaska spruce and the roof is covered with galvanized iron. Ample yard facilities provide storage room for scrap iron, etc.
 The inner diameter of the cupola is 38 inches, and it has melting capacity of seven tons per hour. The charging room is fioored with steel plate and is equipped with a car for handling metal in large pieces.
 For handling the moulteu metal as it comes from the cupola there are three ladies, two with a capacity of 3,5OC pounds each and one with capacity of 1000 ponnds. A 2o.ton crane facilitates

the handling of one of the lighter and the heavy ladle (which are known as screw ladles) and also the heavy cast ings. This crane has a sweep of 38 feet. With this equipment lotion casting is made possible. The old wooden fasks are rapidly giving place to flasks made of iron. At the present time the foundry is turning out about tons of castings every four days. Blue prints are now being made for patterns for mortars, for use in the stamp mills. These castings will weigh about 6,5OO pounds each.
 A Swartz Down Draft brass furnace is being installed, also a Hauck burner for skiu. drying moulds has recently been added to the equipment. This can also be used for lighting up the cupola and drying the ladies. It is Op- erated by compressed air, burns kerU. sene, and can be started and regulated instantly with complete combustion and is under perfect control. Cans for blackwashing moulds and an automatic sand riddle are also operated by com pressed air.
 The core room is provided with an oven, the inside measurement of which is 12x12x9 feet, fitted with side shelves, and a car for handling the larger cores. The core bench is covered with half-inch iron plate and is equipped with a Hammar core machine, which makes cores from 338 inch to 2}]@ inches in diameter. The sand used in this machine is brought from California. The core room is amply provided with shelves for storage and has a cement floor.
 The snap room, where small castings are made-has a cement floor, as have also the cleaning and cupola rooms. Snap moulds are enclosed in iron jackets. In the room for cleaning castings is a stumbling barrel" which operates by water power, and in which the castings are put to polish them and remove the rough edges. In this room there is also a barrel for grinding coal dust for facing.
 An elevator operated by compressed air and having a capacity of 5000 pounds is used for lifting iron to the charging floor A coke shed, capable of storing GOO sacks of coke, is also convenient The dry room, or changing room, is fitted with lockers for each of the men and has hot and cold water and other toilet facilities.
 The foundry is heated by steam, and during the dark hours two large electric lamps of 2,OOO,candle power each, as we'll as numerous iucandescent lights, furnish brilliant illumination. The light, compressed air and fuel oil are furnished from the power plant of the Alaska Mexican Gold Mining company.
 Mark Smith is the foreman of the Treadwell foundry, position which he has held for the last six of the ten years he has been there employed. Mark is justly proud of the new plaut.
 In the rear of the foundry stands a large pattern shop, in which are stored thousands of dollars worth of valuable patterns. It is presided over by that
