FATHER AND DAUGHTER
 DIE FROM STARVATION

Wraug1'I. Feb. l3-By boat and dog teams. the bodies of Peter An derson lCaptain Kiddl and daugh- ter who were found February 5th by Chas. Roose were brought to Wrangeu Tuesday by a party sent out by the Narshal's office Satur- day morning The party, consisting Ot Chas. Eoose. Ed. Ealkins, Rich ard Dale and J. D. Dawes, left WraugeU Saturday morning with dog teams and provisions for the trip up the Stikine to Hot Springs. The expedition returned late Tues day night having secured the bodies and bringing them to Wrangell
 At the inquest held Wednesday morning. the members of the party related their experiences and the conditions at the scene of the double tragedy. Anderson is be- lieved to have died some time pre- vious to the death of his daughter as there were indications showing she had attempted to fasten his body into the bunk by mailing slats across the front. Both bodies were precipitated 10 the floor of the boat by reason of it's tipping onto its side and both bodies were partially frozen into the ice formed in the bottom of the boat None of the party could find a morsel of food about the boat which confirms the belief that the pair died of starva- ton.
 The coroner's jury rendered a verdict of, in the case of Anderson, death from disease, want of food and exposure" and of the girl, death from want Of food and ex- posture"
 Anderson was about sixty years of age and the daughter eighteen. Last November. a party headed by Marshal Schuabel, went to their rescue believing they were out of provisions. They refused to return to wrangell with the party and so what food had been carried up the river was left with them, which proved. however, insufficient for the length of their stay at the Hot Springs,

TRAPPER DIES FROM
 COLD AND STARVATION

Bart Daly arrived in Ketchikan from the Unik River country last week with the bad news that his trapping partner, George A. McGee had died O exposure up the river, The two men left Ketchikan Oct. 1S for a prospecting and trapping trip, intending to be gone all win tor.
 They hunted at the mouth of the Unik for ten days with the crew of the launch Corsair, and then struck inland, leaving part of their outfit at the International boundary and proceeding some twenty-five miles further to the trapping grounds The unusual life and food did not cgree with McGee, and he began to give out. so the two decided to return to the boundary where there vas a good camp and give him a chance to get a good rest and then come out. The way out was terri Lle, the snow being fully twenty feet deep, and SO soft and light, that a man on snow shoes sank clear down to his shoulders. For 41 days the two men struggled through the snow, eating sparingly of their grub to try to stretch it out until they could reach camp, but it gave out at last when they were about eight miles from the cache, and then for twelve more days they lived on porcupine flesh, straight. when that failed them, and for 36 hours they were without anything. It proved too much for McGee and he succumbed January S1st. when within two and half miles of the boundary. His partner Daily tied the body in a sleeping bag. rolled it- in tarpaulin, and digging a hole in the snow buried it beneath a leaning cedar, and then came on to town for help.
 George A. McGee was the broth CT to Mrs. Mike Wadding at LOT ing, and was we'll known in South eastern Alaska.

ance that he will not only make every
thing as convenient for them so far
as sidings and shipping facilities
are concerned, but where warranted
will aid In putting in wagon roads to
meritorious prospects, This Is the
greatest encouragement a prospector
could asl; and will doubtless stimulate
plenty Of them to work with growing
enthusiasm.
Obstacles Met by Prospeetor.
To show up a large body Of ore in
an Isolated district and have to build
roads without means or encourage
ment of any kind, makes prospector
think twice before setting his stakes
in such a locality where single-hand-
ed effort is demanded and the wait Is
often interminable. Life is short, even
that of a prospector.
Most of the ore found at the pres
ent time is Of low grade and will not
stand expensive transportation. 1t
will be a great boon to these hardy
trail blazers to know that some one
worth while has taken UP their cause
in a way that will tell.
