Broiled Chops.

Few meats. are more generally relished
for breakfast than well broiled chops and
notatoes fried in deep fat to a delicate
brown. RIB chops can be nicely Frenched
by scraping the long bone of each one
until entirely denuded of fat and meat.
There are many who prefer loin chops
These simply need the trimming off OF
superfluous fats. The broiler is rubbed
with bit of fat, the chops arranged in II

Dockham May Be
 Given His Liberty

Replying 10 telegram from Mar shal l.. r. Erwin, in which 1t was stated that Streeten DoCkham, one of the insane patients that the marshal $ taking Outside to the sanitarium, is recovering his reason, R. C. Wood, on behalf of the friends of Dock nam. has wired arrangements for a bond that will permit Dockham to be given his liberty as soon as the hospital authorities will permit
 Before taking the steamer from Cordoya. Marshal Erwin wired Mir Wood that Dockham was regaining his normal mental condition and he suggested that if a bond is provided by his friends here he would be able to get his liberty soon after reach uE he Outside.
 According to the law. an insane months in a sanitarium before being released, regardless of his mental condition. unless a bond for his care is filed by responsible people. As soau as Dockham reaches Portland, his bond will be in readiness for 1im. provided the hospital authorities give their consent to his release.
 + is expected that the Dockham gase will be called to the attention
 he government in the effort to get a fund for the maintenance of the ocal detention hospital. which is in eadiness for use. but owing to there
 eing no fund for it. can not be tccupied.
 The detention hospital was con struc ed in Fairbanks for the pur- pose of providing suitable quarters for insane patients during a period that it is desired to study their 'aSes before sending them to the Outside. Had the detention hospital been in operation, Dockham would 1robably have recovered before being zent away. it is declared, and the man and the national government would both have been saved much un-
 ecessary expense and annoyance.

News From Ships
 In Ice Near Nome

Under date of January ?, the Nome Indus rial Worker publishes the following:
 r Harry Phillips received a letter from Hazo who is with the Belvidere lbout fifteen miles from land and about 70 miles from Herschel island.
 They are in a good safe place and 10 be prepared for all emergencies they built a big house on the shore md provisoned it. They are caught n big ice and quite isolated. They have los of stuff on board for the Karluk but neither they nor any natives have seen anything of the {arluk.
 The Mary Sachs and the Alaska are located in the ice about one hun dred miles away towards Point Bar row
 Many ships, eight in all are within hailing distance of the Belvidere, nd they are all short of Erovisio which the Belvidere has been sup plying. So the whaler has to be careful. and already they have cut down the rations on board the Belvi- iere
 "A big Japanese whaler larger than he Belvidere was wrecked within twelve miles of them. They had on board the Jap ship immense eargo of valuable skins but they los everything. On board also, such is he progressiveness of the Japanese was a moving picture man who man aged to save his camera.
 "Hazo has taken some splendid pictures both stationary and movie films, some of the former he en- doses with his letter 10 Phillips and hey are really splendid views.
 The men who were with Louis Lane offered him large sum for his films and also in addition wanted him to go out with them overland. He declined for he would lose the opportunity of a life time in taking some of the rarest pictures in the world.
 The absence of news of he Stefan sson expedition was puzzling al hands. Hazo mentions the Teddy Bear and the North Star as being caught in the ice also. They were short of grub and got some flour rom the Belvidere.
 The Polar Bear came within al inch of being wrecked and had narrow escape from being caught in the ice and ruined They wanted tazo, the worst way, to go out with hem.
 "Hazos letter was taken out tC 7ort Yukon by SWenson the trader yho went out overland and is com ng back in the spring on anothe rip to the Arctic He will probably ake another ship up to relieve the 8elvidere which, however, is in nc langer and quite safe in every way.

Seattle Man Visits
 Shushana Country

The impressions of a Seattle man n the Chisana district are recited IS follows in the Star, published in Ia, city:
 E. o. Sawyer, The Star man who explored the gold fields of the Chis- ana district, isn't the only Seattle man who can tell some thrillers of ne wilds of the northland.
 A lake topping an S,O0O-foot anse of mountains, squeezed be- tween two slopes of a giant gla- fer, it's surface steaming with mist a hile ice and snow exist around it. is the word picture brought back 10 town by J. $. Smith, Seattle boy of 21, who has just reached lome after a thrilling trip over the Ainter trail out of the Chisana.
 The lake is the biggest sight on he 73-mile trip from Chisana to Me Garthy, where you get train for Cordova," said Smith. Tt is located ight Oh the summit and is surely an svidence of some volcanic action going on underneath, for you can dip a cup in it and get drink of water any time in the year All round it are the glacial ice fields.
 T helped Shorty Gwin on his pack-horse train for while. He ook the first horses onto the win CT trail and carried supplies to the nen who were building the new rail out The trip out is no picnic. We didn't run into any hard storms
 When the blizzards begin, the only thing you can do is to make grand rush for road house; if YOU can't reach it you've got to stop md take your chances. The horses urn tail to the wind and won't budge against the driving clouds of snow. going from 80 to 100 miles n hour.
 Pleasant Valley, near the sum mi. of the pass on the way in from Mccarthy, is another freak
 The ground is swept bare of ice and one can see few trees there. It is called Pleasant because 1t gives one about the only sight of the earth on the long trip. From he valley on to the summit is the hardest six miles of the trail. A horse can struggle long with 1000 pounds, but the dog-sled freight is relayed up to the top. Shorty is building road house near there. is badly needed.
 "On the way out We passed the spot where a musher recently fell into a crevice hidden in the snow. Te had big pack on his back. hat caught on the ice and saved his life Another packer named Johnson was killed in November
 hen he was struck by snow ,lde near the head of White river.
 They have found his body and I understand will send it down to he Sta es. am particularly anx- ious to find his relatives. took some letters into the interior ad- dressed to him from Boise, Idaho. That was in August. The letters never reached him and l want to return them to his relatives, wher- ever they are"
 Smith made the trip on the win CT trail in three days and half Fe is going back" he says. He making preparations now to SC ire freighting contracts into the Chls-
