Up to the Siberian borderlaud from the outormost AeuHaus to the rich copper district of the Ketcbum- stock a territory covered sometimes by government revenue cutters and sometimes by dog teams over the snow and ice-such is the diocese of Bishop ?. T. Rowe of Alaska Ia coma visitor today. His travels and his work were the subjects for two sermons yesterday. delivered at St Luke,s and St Andrews Episcopal churches.
 Bishop Rowe met Jack London and Rex Beach when pioneering on the last frontier He "mushod" into the heart of the NortbIand before the gold rush He pushed from mission to mission in the midst of winter, baarding dangerous rapids Where ever gold or rumors of gold has call ed tbc miners. he has tried to be with the first on the ground Among the Alaska Indians he has worked more than a decade.
 Since the advent of the white man. the northern Indians have be come scattered. Their tribal ties broken. they have lost an their pri- mordfal instincts for taking care of themselves. he said
 The United states should adopt some fixed policy in regard to the Alaska Indians Some sort of a res ervauou should be established to bring the scattered tribes together and give them proper medical treat ment and education.
 Recently We found at Cooks Inlet tribe of Indians who appeared to be Iepers. We appealed to the gov ernmeut to take care of them. We asked that other Indians and white men be protected from them From . the answers we received, it seemed there was no department at Washing ton which could take up such work ''
 The bishop told of the last rush to the Iditarod last August He spoke of a mission founded by him at Cir .cle. City
 "Au the reading matter, magazines and books that the miners had in the didarod last winter, I brought with me over the trail" he said. "Wben Dawson was discovered. l es- ! tabusbed a mission at Circle City and I mushed to Nome when I travel ed l.0O0 miles to get to Fairbanks during the excitement With freight at S175 a ton to Fairbanks at that 1 time. I brought in medicines and beds and established the first hospital for ] Che miners.
 "Traveling with an Indian compan. ion and a team of six dogs, I can go 900 miZes at time through the snow. We use snowsboes and cache our food in trees along the trail to ] keep it from the wolves. .'-Tacoma News

as 1896 killed, and 150,15 injured.
Of this number 439 killed and 1887 in
jured are classed under the head of sin
dustrial accidents'' which do not in
vol We the movement of cars or engines
on rails. OF persons %trespassing on
railroad property, walking on tracks, or
stealing rides, 5,2S7 were killed and
1914 injured.
During the year one railroad employe
vas killed, to every 458 and one EN-.
ploye injured to every thirteen employ
ed. The number of railroad employees
OF June 80, 1911 is given as 1,649, 033.
On electric lines which carry inter
state traffic 450 persons were killed and
1924 injured.
The report shows that more than
half the killed were trespassers.
Reading the above should be a warn
ing for them to keep off the railroads
and to be very observing when crossing
railroad and trolley tracks.
PENIS Grove is the residence of
about four hundred men who engage in
the manufacture of powder which is
considered very hazardous business.
For some time not a man has been kill
ed on Carney Point. As one railroad
employee i'll 458 is killed and one in
thirteen injured it is seen that working
on a railroad is more dangerous than
making powder.

Browning Elected to Congress.

Because of the small majority H.. G..
Loudenslager had last year some hoped
for the election OF Thomas M. Terrell, as
his successor. Salem county gave Fer
rell 43 majority and Gloucester gave him
365.
Browning's majority in Camden county
was 2425, giving him 2017 in the district.
Joseph E. Nowrey was elected
Sheriff of Camden county by $500
majority. The Democrats elected 14of
the II Sheriff voted for i'll the State.
This shows that they are stronger on
c ounty officers than for legislative.
