BUDGET OF VALDEZ NEWS

Frank GOyne, who left for the Out side over the trail a few weeks ago, writes the Citizen from Valdez to the effect that the Valdezians are much tXcited over their quartz boom He says that he has seen many specimens from the various ledges. but that from the Cliff mine looks the best of all The Cliff, from which thousand dollars is being taken daily. is about nine miles down the bay from Valdez The quartz belt is located along Mineral Gulch, which is thirteen miles long, and whose waters empty into Valdez bay about four miles from Valdez It is claimed that the gulch is mineraliZed from it's source to it's mouth, and the people of Valdez believe that they have a second Johannesburg. Considerable soreness exists in the Gateway town over the transfer of the mail ser vice to Cordova. Major Richardson, at the time the letter was written, was in Valdez, but expected to leave soon. The Major stated that Antone Ide with five men would leave Seward about December 1 to brush out the trail toward the Iditarod and that party would leave the Idit- arod at about the same time to work toward Seward

'S0URD0UCH' AGAIN
 IN BAD LUCK
HIS CABIN, WITH STOCK OF GRUB ON LAKE CREEK,
 IS DESTROYED.

Bad news was brought on Saturday to A. J. r'Sourdough'D Maiden, who has been al work on Dome creek. by Armstrong, of the Ohio road house. on the Hot Springs trail. This was to the effect that his cabin on Lake creek. g. miles from Fairbanks had been burned to the ground #ith all that it contained
 Alr. Maiden states that he had a considerable amount of provisions n the cabin and he is of the opin- ion that the place was burned by thieves. who first footed the place and then burned the house to de- stroy the evidences of their crime. He feels certain that the cabin was not destroyed by a bush fire as he had carefully brushed around it and it was well removed from any siza- ble timbe".
 This is the second piece of hard luck within a year that has come to Mir. Maiden who is 73 years of age and has been in the North con 'inLously for the past twenty-six wears. About twelvemonth ago I cache he had in the Big Cinema country was footed and he lost all of his grub.

AUTOMOBILE DESTROYED

On Tuesday morning the Pierce Arrow automobile belonging to Dave Courtemanche was very badly damaged by a fire caused by leak 'ng gasoline C. P. Shelley and A. E. Williams were in the car at the time and they jumped as soon as the flames were noticed.
 The fire occurred al the corner of Second and Cowles streets and the fire department promptly respond- ed IL was found, however, that neither water nor chemicals were in the slightest degree effective in checking the flames while the gasO- line was still escaping from the tank.
 The car was damaged practically beyond repair before the flames were subdued II is believed that a broken transmission band allowed the transmission to vibrate and punch a hole in the tank under the hot muftiler.

Substitute for Wool and Cotton.

A marine textile has been dis covered in Australia. It is a sea plant which is abundant in Spencer Gulf. This plant contains fibers for conversion into threads like cotton Mixed with woolen threads, it takes he dye like pure wool. The fab ric that is woven from this plant is excellent. Among other purposes for coffee sacks. Attempts have been made to use the weed instead of hemp and wood pulp in paper making The weed from which the textile is made Is not of present day growth, but consists of fossiliz- d vegetation, the softer parts of which have decompOsed, leaving only the hard and fibrous portion.

THE ANGEL OF OKLAHOMA"
Miss Kate Barnard, State Commis sioner of Charities and
 
COrreCtIOnS

There is nothing new in woman being called an angel" Most of us know women who are either angels or are called such. But besides Flor ence Nightingale, the famous an gel of the Crimea," it is hard to re- call any one woman who is known far and wide as an angel. Miss Kate Barnard the angel of Oklahoma" comes pretty near being the only American woman 10 whom the title is applied.
 Miss Barnard has earned her title of angel fairly. As state commis- sioner of charities and correction of Oklahoma she has labored hard for the poor and unfortunate and defective of her state. She is the only elected woman executive head of any state department of charities and holds her office with the full approval of the men of the state, as is shown by her election by a plur- ality of 4,00O votes over her male competitor As is well known. Okla homa, the newest state in the Union, has advanced ideas in government Some of them are due to the teach ings and preachings of Miss Bar nard
 "A very small woman with very large job," Is the way one news paper writer described Miss Bar nard not long ago And he was quite right Not that Oklahoma has more than its share of people in need of the ministrations of the charities and corrections commissioner. but tha, it's people in their eagerness for advancing along the lines of helpfulness toward ones fellow men

Wear on Railroads.

Based on calculations made in 1883, engineering experts belonging to the London and Northwestern railway led to the conclusion that about one pound of steel went into dust daily on every mile of track operated. On a similar basis we believe that the track of the Penn sylvania railroad grinds up about two and one-quarter pounds of steel per hour for every mile of track.-Rail- way and Locomotive Engineering.
