The Fireless Cooker.

The fireless cooker has arrived.
1t has been exhibited to numerous
enthusiastic friends by G. H. Tiffany.
It is double-action continuance and
does hot or cold duty according to the
design of it's fortunate owner. Its only
drawback is that it only receives and
preserves the caloric or frigid qualities:
it does not produce them.
Thus, if one wants to cook a pot of
beans he first sets it to boiling vigor-
ously and then transfers it to the cooker,
which finishes the job and keeps the
mess hot for an indefinite time. Or, if
freeze ice cream, say, on Thursday, he
could place it in the cooker and keep it
nice and firm till the following Sunday.
Mr.. Tiffany only ordered small cooker
in order to give it trial. With one of
the larger ones it might be possible to
confine and ship outside enough TO-
below Alaska weather to at least freeze
over good-sized mill pond.

have interfered with the practice work.
1t is yet possible that the match may be
pulled off next Sunday.
There are some good players among
the Fort Gibbon men, but the Tanana
fans believe they would stand a good
chance to beat them especially 30,
since there are three good men in the
crew of the St. Michael who are lying
over here while the steamer is under
going repairs, and they would be pressed
into service in the town team.

Ben Bakers Bets.

Ben Baker, the old sourdough, came
down from Hot Springs on the steamer
Tanana last Saturday, and proceeded to
the outside by way of Dawson. He will
look over the country bordering the
Gulf of Mexico before continuing to his
old home in Kentucky. He says he
does not expect to return to Alaska, but
it would not be bad bet that he will
come floating back on the open water Of
1911.
Speaking of bets: Mr.. Baker took &C.
casion while in Tanana to hand over to
Dick Richards 500 which became due
at the time Johnson defeated Jeffries in
Nevada. The wager had been made by
wire. The hitting abilities of the big
black man also cost him about 800 other
good sound dollars. In telling about it
Mr.. Baker was nightly tickled over
one transaction connected with his mis-
judgment of the pugilists.
He and Ben Hastings, some time be-
fore the fight, entered into an agree
ment whereby $500, or so much thereof
as takers could be found for, would he
placed on Jeffries, the two to 60 halvers
on the proposition. Hastings hiked out
to the creeks and placed $3.50. When
he returned he told Baker he was pretty
hard up and would like to keep all the
wagers for himself. Bakers mind dwelt
on the good things his half of the money
would buy on the outside, but he could
not resist the appeal and his compliance
saved him $1S5 and put Hastings that
much more to the bad.

DESERVED TRIBUTE
TO MAJOR CLUM

In an editorial in the Iditarod Pioneer
of July "a, captioned ''The Need of
Postal Facilities," tribute is paid to
the executive ability to Major John P.
Clum to which thousands of residents
of interior Alaska would be glad to add
a hearty approval. AS the Pioneer says,
IAN adequate postal service for the
Iditarod is chiefly notable for it's alb
sence," and this condition prevails not
withstanding an entire summer has
passed during which the need for the
service was open to the scrutiny of all
men. Had Major Clum been present in
his former capacity it would have been
otherwise. Major Clum differed from
most federal officials in this: his ca
pacity for sizing up the necessities of the
occasion enabled him to overcome the
endless chain of red tape which makes
intelligent action difficult and slow;
while in their cases the endless chain of
red tape made it impossible for them
to size up the necessities of the occasion.
He and they were as close together as
the north and south poles and no closer.
The Leader would extend both thanks
and congratulations to the Pioneer for
it's timely reference to the intelligent
and potential services of John P. Clum

Tana from IdItarOd.

At noon today the steamer Tana ar
rived direct from the Iditarod at noon
today.
Aboard were the following well-known
people:
CAPT. J. J. DONOVAN, deputy

federal Jail at Fairbanks.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. S. LANGFORD, for
forty of Gold Mountain district. Mrs.
Langford and her little daughter LYDIA

claims in Gold Mountain district.

camp remains unchanged: the good
ground so far proven to be such is in
sufficient to support the number of

Many Native Children Die.

(From the Valdez Prospector, July 49,
Twenty-six native children have died
of measles at Tatitklek within the last
few days. Accurate information con.
corning conditions there is not yet OBJ
tainable, but it is understood that the
victims of the contagion are mostly very
small children, and that large number
are now suffering from it.
News of the widespread malady in the
Indian village came yesterday evening
to Captain Bennett, commandment at
Fort Liscum, from A. R. Law, govern
ment school teacher at Tatitlek, who
asked for medical assistance. Captain
Bennett at once sent DR.. Jones, post
surgeon, down to the village to give
such aid as he can under difficult condi-
tons.
Commissioner Reed was also notified,
but he has no special jurisdiction, Alaska
natives being wards of the bureau of
education. He cabled the facts to the
department of justice to give notice to
the federal government.
When Mr.. Law was in Valdez ten DAYS
ago he told the commissioner that meas
les was affecting the Tatitlek Indians
and few had died, but at that time he
did not think the contagion would
spread so widely. Since then it has
seized large proportion of tie native
population and conditions are pitiable.
Tatitlek is native village two miles
below Ellamar. 1t has population of
about 200. Forty children are in the
government school.

They were gratifed by their hearty
reception at Fairbanks. The attorney
general is quoted as saying that never
in his life had he met with such open
hauded hospitality. Bands played, his
speeches (made upon insistent demand)
were listened to by throngs and he was
not allowed to open his purse while in
the city. Had not his visit extended to
Fairbanks, he said, he would not have
known Alaska.
