CORWIN SAILS ON LAST
 TRIP OUT OF SEATTLE

With the sailing recently of the steaemr Corwin for San Francisco, the Seattle water front probably had it's last glimpse of the little vessel which has done such valiant service in Alaska waters. Capt. R. J. Healey was at the wheel when the Corwin sailed for the South, where she will be turned over to her new owner, the Southwestern Steamship Company, of Los Angeles. She will hereafter ply between San Francisco, San Pedro and Mazatian or Guaym2s, Mexico.
 For twelve years the Corwin has been the ice-breaker for vessels in the Seattle Alaska trade. She has been the first vessel into Nome and points in the North every year. Before en- tering the commercial routine the Corwin was a United States revenue cutter, and as such participated in many raids on poachers in Alaska waters. She also aided in rescuing numerous whaling expeditions, and her appearance at ports on KOtzebue sound and at Port Barrow in the spring of each year was always a sight for rejoicing at those places
 Last year she was outftted for walrus hunt and went far into the waters of the Arctic in search of the animals P. l.

 STEPS TO ORGANIZE

Local Odd Fellows have taken def- nite steps towards the organization of a lodge of that order in Seward.
 The Territory of Alaska is under the jurisdiction of the grand lodge of the State of Washington. The dis trict deputy grand master for Alaska has already given his approval of the application for a charter by the Sew ard Odd Fellows. Consequently there is little doubt that the three link fraternity will soon have an organiza- tion in the Terminal City.
 When all other requirements have been met it is expected that the grand master will appoint some memter of

PROMINENT TREADWELL
 MAN Is KILLED

TREADWELL, Dec. 1S.-Edward Schanda, an oiler at the Mexican Hoist, was killed shortly after he went to work on the seven o'clock shift this morning
 It seems that Schanda went down into the pit, where the reverse gear of tAe hoisting engi.e is located, for the purpose of adjusting the gears, and after performing the task called up to Emil Youngstrom, the engineer. that everything was all right. About this time, it appears the engineer had received a signal to hoist the cake. and after calling to Schanada did SO. He then reversed the engine, as usual and it is thought that a heavy bal ance weight. which was released by the reverse of the engine, caught and crushed the deceased. However, no one seems to be positively certain as to just how he was injured. When Schanda was caught he screamed to Youngstrom who immediately revers- ed the hoisting engine, which re- leased Schanda. He then climbed out of the pit, walked some thirty or forty

WOULD CHANGE OLD
 ALASKA MINE LAW
Inspector for Territory Suggests that Congress Repeal Present Act and
 Pass More Efficient One.

SEATTLE, Dec. 15.-Sumner s. Smith, mining inspector of Alaska, has asked Congress to repeal the fe- eral mining law for the territory and to pass a new one that will fit the needs of the local conditions. The suggestion is embodied in Inspector Smiths report to the United States bureau of mines, which was made public at Washington today. Smith also asks that mine experiment sta tion be established in Alaska, and that the federal mine inspector be given an appropriation for the equip ment and rental of an office and for field assistance.
 Under the present law, the federal mine inspector is allowed S3,O00 a year salary, but he is not allowed to employ any assistants. As the terri tory which he is supposed to cover embraces an area of 5S9,000 square miles, on most of which there is no railroad, it is obviously impossible for him to give good service in all parts of his field If the mine in- spector happened to be at Ketchikan in winter, and an accident was report ed at Nome or on the Koyukuk, it would be impossible for him to make an examination to determine the cause of the accident until 8 or 9 months had elapsed. The law pre- supposes that he will immediately in- vestigate all mining accidents in the territory.
 Smith reports among other things that a number of applications to mine coal on ten-acre tracts have been re- ceived, and work on them has been started in each of the four judicial divisions.
 Among the notable developments reported from Alaska is the installa- tion of a new 5OO-ton concentrator at the Beatson mine at Latouche, and the first unit of 10,000-ton crushing plant at Thane, several small quartz mills and dredges and two new cyan ide plants. New discoveries of prom ising placer ground are reported from the Tolovana river.
 Van H. Manning, chief of the United States bureau of mines, in his report to Secretary of the Interior Franklin K. Lane, filed today at Washington, says that more than g. 400 men were trained in rescue methods and more than 6,1OO in first aid methods during the past year. During the year more than 100 min CTS were rescued Seattle Times.
