Georges Carpenter. the heavyweight

With W OF the best years OF his
life clipped out, Carpenter will. bar

take the position I'm ring affairs that
he holds today.
Being u OF the ring for two years

There's a ray Of comfort in all this
for the French champion. II he went

And. not 10 be pessimistic. there's
another side 10 the matter. Carpen-

line. with little chance 10 dissipate.

(. ]. SKUSE GETS
 PATENT FOR HOME

c. J. skuse who has for a number
 of wears been conducting ranch at
 Mendenhan river and supplying Ju
 neau and a number of outside places
 with vegetables from his homestead
 has been granted homestead patent to his lands. His entry consists oi 151 acres at Mendenhall and is one of 2S claims in the forest reserves that were thrown open yesterday and re- stored to entry in the Chugach and Tongass reserves.
 A patent has also been issued to the Pacifis American Fisheries company for 94 acres on the east side of Excur- sion inlet, as a soldiers additional homestead.
 The land office has recommended that patent to the Feed group of coal claims be repected. This is a group of coal claims eight in number in the Berlng river district. These claims were sold by the original locators to q company known as the Alaska An thracite Coal company of eight stock holders, who paid for the claims near ly $1O.OOO. The company applied for patent. and the government charges that the original locators made un- lawful location in that they all agreed to let their agent Freed have an in- terest in the locations, or that their several interests constituted ready a common interest, and that they did not open or improve a coal mine on each of the locations. The decision is that the government has failed to prove any of the charges of fraud, ex- cept that one of the claims was locat- ed solely in the interest of the agent Freed, who admits the charge, and that none of the locators at the time of location had opened or improved coal mine. The decision was one that was controlled by the hearing in the Cunningham and James Wardell cases. F. p. Mcdonald acted as agent for the The land office has rec that the applications for patent be rejected.
