NARROW ESCAPE
 FROM DEATH

A party of seven miners en route from Seward to Nelchina, says the Cordova Alaskan, were recently caught in a snowslide near the summit of Crow creek pass, but fortunately no fatalities occur red although two men were buried below the surface for some time. The members of the party were:
 Clinton Johnson, Alex Bolank Elgin Vaughn, oscar Gill, Harry Holden, Ed. AnGeIsne and Al Dreese. The latter two were the ones who suf- Cer.d most. They were wearing snowshoes and when found were head dowr and unconscious and re- Quired a long fight on the part of their companions to save their lives.

.CANNERIES ARE
 GETTING READY

The salmon packing companies with headquarters in San Francis 60. Portland, Seattle aLd Tacoma are all making preparations for the Alaska season which is soon to op- en. Owing to the increased output last veal over forlner seasons and the failure of new markets open ing for the producer the season of 1913 was an uuprofitable one for the packers and it is evident that retrenchment will be the or der for 1914. It Is estimated ST. 900, ,OOO Was lost by the cannery companies last season. The loss was sustained largely by the small er concerns who were compelled io unload their output early in the season in order to meet their ob- l;gations.
 The Alaska Packing Company will operate two os its largest plants at Loring and Wrangell' with fuel oil. They have also had constructed two new cannery ten ders valued at S1O,0OO. The sel- lovia Salmon Company is also hay ing a beat built which is so feet long with 161a feet beam, which will be used as tender. The AL aska Packers have dispatched the Star of Poland from san Francisco to British Columbia for coal with which their canneries will be op- erated. !
 It is figured that 1914 will be the smallest of the four year cy- cle in Puget sound waters and many seiners who have operated there are anxious to close engagements with the operators in Alaska. The Alaska Fishermen's Union have al- SO asked for an increase in the scale of wages which will probably be granted.
 Whether it is the result of the pure food laws or the sharp super vision of the inspectors of the fisheries bureau, 1t is noticeable that many plants are being equip ped with the latest improved sani- tary methods of canning the sal mon.

CAMP FIRE GIRLS
 OPEN OUTDOOR SEASON

The Camp Fire Girls opened the season, Saturday last by ascending Mount Roberts. It was an open day and Prof. Henderson, Miss Lorraine Andrews and Miss Scott, and several high school boys made up the num- Der to twenty-five.
 One of Juneau's most beautiful days greeted the enthusiasts. All success fully reached the timber line before "weenies" were cooked on sticks ov- CT the fire. Some were more ambi- tious than the rest and reached the top of the mountain.
 The Juniors as usual were 10th to stay behind.
 The camp fire this year promises to be even more successful than last season, and all the girls are looking for news of Miss Francis Gulicks ar rival. for she has promised to help them with their swimming. Miss Gu lick is a fine swimmer and diver, having been the swimming teacher at the Sebago-Wohelo Camp in Maine, where Miss Edith Kempthorne spent the summer with 60 Camp Fire Girls.

Her Supreme Sacrifice" a power fully dramatic story in which woman sacrifices wealth and social position to devote her life to the man she loves. This beautiful story has been played by company of the best actors that have ever been gathered toegther in an American picture play. The cos tunes, the settings and accessories, as well as the outdoor scenes, represent the very best that careful preparation lavish outlay of money and artistic taste could provide. The quarry with the thrilling accident and tremendous dynamite blasting of rock, the ball. room scenes with tango dancing by professional cabaret dancers of New York, one continuous reel, and the pic turesque country scenes have never been eQualed in any motion picture. The photography is perfect in every scene, being absolutely steady and free from any blemish.

INTERESTING SEASON FOR
 MUSIC GLASSES

Miss Edith Kempthorne has reop. ened her studio at the Charon House, and has commenced a class in rui- ments of music. If arrangements can be made with the Associated Board, London, the pupils will be able to pass an examination in this subject at the end of the year. Students need not necessarily be piano pupils. The rudiments are very necessary to anyone who is interested in music.
 Miss Kempthorne hopes to give a pupils recital in December.
 Miss Kempthorne has already had great success with small children teaching them the modern method of songs and illustrations, which eE- ables even children of seven years to transpose with ease, and trains those who have a poor ear, until at last they are able to sing with the others from the commencement, which is the most important, the memory is trained thus early giving the child confidence and prevents self-conscious' ness.
 Miss Kempthorne gained a wide ex' perience in teaching in New Zealand, being the head teacher there of the Nelson School of Music, and after studying in the Royal Academy of London, and gaining the Teachers Lii centrate, she came to Juneau, this be- ing her third winter in this city.

 TALk POLITICS

At 8 woman's meeting held in the Council Chambers of the City Hall yesterday afternoon plans were de- cided upon to secure an expression from candidates for office at the forth coming election either in person or by written statement setting forth the individual attitudes of each candidate on the issues of the present cam. paign. In order to carry out this plan various committees were appointed to arrange for a subsequent meeting which is to be held some evening or day prior to election, at which time the various candidates will be asked to address the meeting.
 The meeting wac called by Mrs. Lena Morrow Lewis, editor of the Sunday Post, for the purpose. she states, of getting the women inter- ssted in their newly acquired right, the elective farauchise, and to instruct them in the matter of casting their votes. Mrs. Harry J. Fisher presided at the meeting throughout. Mrs. Lew is addressed the meeting and paper sent by Gov. J., F. A. Strong, explain ing the methods of voting and quot ing from the Alaska Code on the qualifications of voters was read. Mrs. Sidney Charles was secretary.
 At the conclusion of the discussion, and after deciding on the matter of holding another meeting at which the various candidates will be invited to give expressions to their views on the questions at issue; the chair ap- pointed the following committees: h. vitation-Mrs. E. Valentine, Mrs. John J. Reagan, Mrs. Lena Morrow Lewis; Hall-Mrs. D. A. Thompson; Finance - Mesdames Metcalf and Novel;.

E. (. RAINE TALKS
 TOURIST TRADE

Edgar c. Raine, U. S. deputy col lector of internal revenue for the dis trlct of Washington and Alaska, has decided to resign from his position at once and engage in the tourist business with Alaska and Yukon Ter ritory as the field for his endeavor. Mir. Raine. has travelled over both Territories many times m connection with his official duties and before he became n government official and has obtained full knowledge of what the country has to offer in this line first hand. He has, perhaps, larger speak ing acquaintance among the people of the North than any other person in the country,
 Mir. Raine returned from an extend ed official tour of the country on the Mariposa and is staying at the Ho- tel Cain. Speaking of his plans, Mir. Raine said: T am convinced that this country has vastly more to offer tourists and others seeking knowledge and pleasure than any other country of the world. It will be rny purpose with the cooperation of the differ ent communities of the North, includ- ing Northern British Columbia as wei as Yukon and Alaska, to make the world acquainted with these attrac- tions, through a vigorous advertising campaign, and to induce those who travel for pleasure to come to this country.
 q shall have personally conducted tours. making this country every sea son. and bear in mind, that the bene- fits to the country are not confined to the money left here as expenses incurred in making the trip-many of them either become interested them selves in the development of the coun- try, or they induce others to do so on returning to their homes. This mat ter should interest every community in the North, especially where the re- sources to a large extent are lying dormant.
 q shall have permanent office in Seattle and shall establish 1t immed- lately and then go East establishing offices in cities of the middle West and in the large centers of the East, making connections that will result in getting a great interest aroused that will surely be the means of in- duclng large number of those who have been in the habit of going to Europe every year to make the AL aska trip. Our slogan will be See Alaska Now" The European war will make our task of directing travel up this way much easier to inaugurate and once 1t is fairly started there will be no way of stopping it. l shall al- so after returning from the East es- tablish an office at the Exposition grounds in San Francisco and we will be able to pursuade many of those who come to San Francisco to contin' ue the journey to the North"
 Mir. Raine says that his plans Of cooperation with the commercial bod ies of the different communities in the interior was immediately success | full and that he would like to meet with the Juneau Commercial Club and talk it over with them. He ex- poets to be here several days before continuing on the trip South.

MONTHLY PUBLICATION
 IS BORN AT SITKA

The Verstovian is the latest addi- ton to Alaska publications. It made its appearance at Sitka early this month, and is published by the Shel- don Jackson industrial school at the former capital of Alaska. Raynor Ga rev is editor of the publication, and it is promised that it will be issued monthly. as soon after the first of each month as possible. The Yer stovian takes it's name from Sitkas nearest mountain-Mt. Verstovia, so named because 1t is just one verst high.
 The new publication has this to say of itself:
 "The Verstovian greets its readers, and hopes to carry to them each month a message of the great work done Tor the natives in Southeastern Alaska In the Sheldon Jackson school.
 "A word of explanation is due the many friends of The Thlinget who have inquired for the interesting llt- tie paper that used to come from this scbool:-After Mir. Beck left to be- come minister at Rake, Alaska, for a while there was no printer at the school and when the writer came he found that it would be necessary to have a new press and other equip mont before continuing a paper, ana took the matter up with the Board in New York.
 New York is a long ways off and it takes time to receive answers to correspondence and this, coupled With the fact that the money had to be taken up as special" all made a long time elapse before everything could be attended to. The new press was ordered and came in July. Since then other equipment has been com. ing. and only the last boat brought the final articles necessary for tnis issue.
 "All money that has been sent to The Thlinget for subscriptions has been credited to The yerstovian and you will receive this paper in its place.
 "The Verstovian will be issued as soon as possible after the first of each month, and we hope to present to it's readers from time to time, articles dealing with the different departments of work as they are taken np with the pupils in the Sheldon Jackson School. There is so much of inter est concerning the School and sitka and this part of Alaska, that we will be limited by the size of our paper and the time we can spend on any one issue, to do full justice to these big subjects"

Tuesdays new bill at the Juneau proved conclusively to an appreciative audience that the management is showing the brand of photoplays and high class musical numbers, both yo- cal and instrumental, that the Juneau theatre.goers have long been waiting for.
 The ship wreck scene in "The Bonds man" is a revelation in scenic portray al. "Tweekenham Ferry" full of love and romance, came in strong for it's share of approval. Arthur Johnstone with his winning personality pleased greatly in 'The Wedding Write Up," and, oh, yes, Warren Kerrigan is on again, huff said"
