FISHING IN NORWAY

In Northern Norway the chief industry is fishing and has been for years. Some of the finest fishing ships i'll the world run out to the open ocean from this country. And the hardy Norwegian is known the world over as daring sailor and fisherman.

AN IMPORTANT
 MINING DEAL

X deal has been consummated lately whereby change has occurred in the ownership Of the Gold Standard mining prop critics at Helm Bay. These claims were discovered in 1897 In 1898 ore was treated in an arastra. about S2o, ,000 in gold being secured. In 1890 five stamp waterpower mill was CT ected, a tramwav built from the mine to the mill and from the mill to the beach. From 1900 to 1906 the property was worked at intervals and about S75.000 in bullion and eoncen. trateS shipped and considerable development work done. a shaft being sunk i50 feet and 600 feet of levels frn developing
 
 the property at that depth. The history of this mine is the same as others in this district At one time there were five miners working underground, and the salaries Of the mana. gers and office force amounted 10 $50.o0 per day. There is no doubt but that the mine has more than produced enough to pay all legitimate expenses of development and has ore en- ough in sight to make it one of the best paying mines in the district with good management.

ALASkANS IN

That Alaskans are prominent in coast politics is evidence from the following.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH

The waterfront was shocked by the news this morning of the sudden death pn board the tug Pioneer of the death of her
 captain, c. c. Manter, around which some little mystery
 hangs. It appears that the tug
 Pioneer is in port on her way south, and that Caps. Manter has been troubled considerably of late with acute indigestion.
 Yesterday about two o'clock he called on Marine Surgeon Story and was treated for indigestion remarking as he left the doc. tors office that he felt better than he had for some time Some time during yesterday af ternoon or evening he plrtook of several crab cocktails going to bed some time afterwards. This morning he rose, dressed, telling members of the crew that he had passed very bad night, ate his ordinary break. fast, and then left the dining room. X few moments after. wards, the noise of a fall was heard, and members Of the boats crew went out and found him lying on the main deck unconscious, having appar eltly fallen while descending a short flight of stairs. Dr. Story was hastily summoned and arrived within seven min.. utes of the time Capt. Manter was picked up, but found the man dead, and diagnosed the case as probably paralysis of the heart brought on by acute indigestion, but at the same time asked that an investiga.. tion be held by the corner, as he was not absolutely sure as to the actual cause Of the death. Reason for doubt on his part was added to by the crew several members of which stated that the Captain had acted strangely at times on the trip south, and it was thought that possibly he had made a.. way with himself, but as no bottle or other sign of drug or poison was found i'll or about the dead mans stateroom, the doctor is inclined to believe that death was the result of natural causes.
 Capt. Manter was we'll known as a tug boat captain of abil.. ity, having been in command Of the Pioneer for the last couple of years or so, having been in the employ of the Puget Sound Tug Boat comp. any, her owners for many years. He was a big man, fnl.. l ly six feet high, and weighing Ill the neighborhood of 25O | pounds. He was 1T years of | age, married, with one daugh.. ter; a member of the Elks and | Odd Fellows. Following the of Dr. Story, Com. Stackpole convened | coroner's jury this afternoon which made report stating -lat to the best of their know. edge and belief Capt. Manter had come to his death from causes.
