REINDEER RAISING
 ALASKA INDUSTRY
Undeveloped Territory Not Fit For Agriculture, Suitable For Raising Big
 Animals.
Eat But Little and Hide and Meat Valuable Com
 modities.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 4.-There are not less than 3O,000 domesticated reindeer in Alaska to-day, according to estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The industry under sci. entific management should develop rapidly, and be of value in agriculture, according to experts. The present herds form 8 very promising basis upon which great industry may De built.
 That portion of Alaska which of fers the fewest other agricultural op- portunities is the region best suited to the reindeer. So the industry may be developed without encroaching on ence of white reindeer-mo in all the Arctic region of Alaska permits the occupancy of vast regions that would otherwise be uninhabrIable. The reindeer subsist mainly on this native herbage winter and summer. They require no shelter and little care be- yond the restraint of a herder to keep them from wandering. The meat is of excellent duality and the skins are valuable. In Europe the deer are used for dairy and transportation pur- poses, and while little attempt has thus far been made in our territory along these lines, there are possibi1- itfes of similar development.
 According to the investigators. there are unsurpassed cattle and sheep rafs- Ing lduOS 10 De IOunQ on LnG Alaskan islands and in certain places near the shore on the mainland. Winter for age for cattle and sheep is provided largely from the native grasses, both hay and siIage being made. The prac- tfcability of raising stock, however, except in small herds close to individ- ual farms has not been sufficiently in vestigated to warrant more than an 1nttmatfOn of its possibilities There are serious obstacles to be considered the long winters, boggy land, mosqui- toes and carniverous animals. These objections, however, do not interfere seriously with the reindeer industry.

WESTERN JEAN VALJEAN, TOO,
WENT BACK TO PRISON

The original Jean Vatican was the
hero of Victor Hugo's great work,
Lies Miserables" A prisoner in the
galleys, he escaped, assumed the
name of M. Madeleine, and became
an honored and successful citizen.
In real life the West has had a
''Jean Vatican" case as dramatic as
that of Hugo's story.
William January of Kansas City
had been sentenced to a five-year
term for a burglary. He had served
three years when, with his cellmate,
he found a loose window in the sky
light and escaped. -'"
After wandering for months pick
ing up odd jobs and always in fear of
recapture, he went into the business
of selling tea and coffee through the
country, taking the name of Charles
w. Anderson.
The money. he made in this way
he invested in a restaurant. His
business prospered He married and

lection box in his shop and secured
some money at one time. The little
children are helping out as best they
can.
One of the most thrilling expe-
riences that Stripping went through
as Morris, chief of police, was the
rescue of two women in a wild run
away. He grabbed the double team
of horses and swung onto them until
they were stopped and help arrived,
but in the effort his leg was broken
in two places and his foot so badly
mangled that part of it had to be
amputated.
Stripping says he suffered ten times
as much punishment as ordinarily
could be inflicted on a man during
the long years of constant apprehen-
sion. Both he and his wife realized
always that some day the end would
come. They were days of never
ending torture.
