JUDGE MORAN
 SEES FORTUNE IN
 COATS IN NORTH

SEATTLE, July 2S.-Angora goats for Alaska Is the latest stunt for the development of the resources of the northern territory. It is the plan of Judge Martin F. Moran, representa- tive to the territorial legislature from the Kibuk district At the Barker yesterday, Judge Moran outlined his plans for Importing a herd of angora goats in Alaska. to feed on the rein deer moss, which grows so plentiful ly on the tundra of Western and Northern Alaska. The Northern leg islator sees a future in the angora industry. with fat profits for the men with the initiative and daring to undertake the venture.
 Down in Oregon" said Judge Nor an there is an angora ranch that is making a fortune for the owner. The war has cut down the importation of angora wool. and 1t is up to the new American ranches to supply all the needs of the mohair manufacturers. Angora wool is a staple product; 1t brings from S1 to SS pound raw the finest grades being used in the manufacture of the most expensive grades of mohair and fancy plush. In Oregon they find plenty of food on the hills, and l don't see why they couldn't thrive equally well on our Alaskan reindeer moss. The moss has great nutritious Qualities 1t has saw cd the lives of men on many occas. ions when they happened Co be out in the blizzards and lost their way.
 It is the intention of Judge Moran to take a small herd Of angoras this fail. if he can make satisfactory ar engagements with the steamship com panies for their transportation from Nome to the Kobuk district, which Is twenty miles north of the Arctic Cir. cle.
 Representative Moran returned yes terday from a visit to his old home in Kansas He will start on his S. 900 mile journey home this week. to take charge again of his fox ranch at Shungak-(s Seattle Post-Intelligen- cer.)

THE COPPER BUYING
 MOVEMENT NOW DUE

BOSTON. July 2S.-It now looks as though the belated buying move ment in copper might materialize be- fore the end of July 1T the inquiries which producers have been receiving during the past few days may be re- garded as a forerunner.
 Buying is expecte to take place at around 19 cents a pound. An active selling agent says that cables have been coming from Europe in iucreas- ing numbers. but they all indicate that the ofreigns will try to bargain their supplies as cheaply as possible.
 There have been offerings of copper below 19 cents. at which level sales were made within the past few days by some producers. London dealers have been selling copper lately to France. according to cable advices. and the supply of electrolytic in that market, which has been at extremely low ebb for several months, must soon be replenished.
 Many domestic consumers are buy ing their copper requirements on a hand-to-mouth basis. in anticipation of lower pricts. due to increasing pro duction
 A refinery operator says: "l do not believe there is yet any sign of an of copper at refinery points. Some Of the redneries are not running to capacity. and will not be obliged to do so until late in August at the earlietst "- Boston News Blu reau)

GREAT SHOWING FOR BIG ALASKA
 GASTINEAU MILL

BOSTON. July 2S.-We understand that the Alaska Gold Mines Co. mill is now treating close to 5000 tons of ore per day. In this connection it is interesting to know that General Manager Thane is confident of his ability to treat l2000 tons of ore per day in the four sections of the mill designed to treat 1500 tons of ore per day each or 5000 in all In oth- CT words. he expects to treat double the rated capacity of each section.
 Much interest naturally centers in what the ore now going Go the mills is running. and the extent to which original expectations of S1.50 ore are being realized. Very little official in- formation on this point has been forthcoming. presumably for the req son that it is unsafe to base perma- neut calculations on results obtained before the min has had time to make average returns.
 The grade of ore to be run through the mill Is flexible matter. It could be made to run up to S2.5O per ton and extract only the richest DOT ton og the veins if it was thought good mining SO to do. There Is no in. tention. however. of making @ show ing. and if very wide vein is mined from footwan to hanging wall and a net recovery of better than S1.50 per ton is had. it will be more than sat isfactory to the company's officials.
 We underston that at last reports the headings" assay value of the ore) were S1.6S per ton and the tail- ings losses % cents per ton. or a net recovery of S146; but this is the re- suit of mining under the poorest con ditions Of property should encounter and before each department of the mining and milling operation has had opportunity to give the best results A tailings loss or under 20 cents is confidently expected.
 As to operating costs we under stand that even at this early stage a cost of 64 cents per ton has been achieved against an estimated figure Of 75 cents when the original predic- tions were made. This saving Of n cents from early estimate is impress

SEVEN IN 100
CAN SPELL HAS

Seven out Of every 100 third-grade public-school children cannot spell "hos." declared recent report of the b. S. Bureau of Education. This conclusion Is reached as the result of gigantic series Of spelling tests which were recently conducted by Dr. Leonard p. Ayres, of the Russell Sage Foundation. working in cooperation with S4 city school superintendents throughout the United States. Dr.. Ayref had the LOGO commonest words tested by an aggregate of 100000 spellings, secured from 10000 school children The result made 1t possible to measure accurately spelling abil- fly. and to compute the amount of improvement in spelling the same words from grade to grade.
 The words used as a basis for these tests were chosen in the following manner:
 As a result of combining the four most extensive studies that have been made to identify the words commonly used in different sorts of English writing. Dr. Ayres has selected the 1000 words that constitute 90 per cent of the language ordinarily used. This selection was made from vari- ous English authors, from four Sun day newspapers of Buffalo, N. r., and from the business and family cores pondence of over 1000 adults. The objects of the study was to develop a scale for measuring attainment in the spelling of common words on the part of school children"
 By a scale arrangement, extending on line from O-1OO; spelling ability is easily and scientifically determined. For example. nine words of most ire Quent use, viz. "the." "in," "so," mo" " now man" ten. "bed," "top," re- vealed that second-grade pupils, on an average. spelled correctly 94 per cent. of these words At the other extreme of the scale the words Judgment recommend, and "allege' were found to be spelled correctly by just 90 per cent. of the eight-grade pupils. Percentages above and below these would indicate variations from the normal in spelling.
 Dr. Ayres finds that intellectual abilities are distributed in much the same way among people as are physi- cal traits." Just as there are few dwarfs. many people of medium height, and very few giants; so there are very few exceedingly poor spell CTS. many medium ones. and very few excellent ones. Few words do most of our work when we write. Fifty words constitute. with their repeti- tions, one-half of the words written. The child who masters the 1000 words on the scale given will make no spelling errors in nine-tenths of his writing.

LOCATE THE ROCK
 MARIPOSA STRUCK

The rock that the steamship Mari posa of the Alaska Steamship Com pany struck on her last trip down from Southeastern Alaska, July 16. has been charted by the United States coast and geodetic survey.
 In statement issued by the fed eral authorities yesterday it is related that immediately after the report of the accident to the Mariposa had been received, a wire drag party was sent out to search for the obstruction. Three days after the accident, or on July 19. 1t was found It is in Clar- ence Strait, off Point Harrington, and the description is gwen for correc- tion of charts pending the next edi- tion on which the submerged rock will appear.
 The rock is described as 200 feet in extent and has a least depth of 20 feet below mean low water It lies $40 yards from the nearest land off Point Harrington, upon the following true bearings: Steamer Point west tangent IT degrees; Point Earring ton, north tangent (tree line, Obser- vation Island) 124 degrees; Key Reef light, 252 degrees.
 The rock lies outside the visibility of Lincoln Rock light and Steamer Point light, neither of which lights are visible from the position of the rock; and it may be safely cleared by keep ing Lincoln Rock light open until Steamer Point light shows, going north. or vice versa going south.
 The wire drag party dragged for two miles in the vicinity of the new ly discovered rock and ro other simi- lar danger was found.

Right here it can be said that Gener- al-Alanager Thane Is confident that he can show a cost of 55 cents per ton when the capacity of the mine and mill have been brought up to i2,0oO tons of ore per day.-a matter of not very many months
 As has been stated by President Hayden. before this capacity of i2,00O tons has been provided another ST. 100000 bonds may be issued.-pri- marily to provide increased power. (Boston News Bureau.

 LOSS OF ABOUT s45,oOO

DAWSON. July 2S.-A huge pile of cordwood aggregating $500 cords. at Forty-fve below Discovery on Bonan- ga creek, was burned this afternoon. It is supposed to have caught fire from a spark from the stack of the Yukon Gold Co.'S thawing plant on the same claim The wood belonged to the company and was estimated to be worth S45,OOO. It was cut up the Yukon river and taken to Bonanza by train at an average cost of $13 a cord, and was used in thawing the ground for gold dredges working near by.
