CONDITIONS OF ALASKA
 INDIANS IMPROVING

SEATTLE. Jan. 20.-Efforts on the part of the United States government to provide every possible means of subsistence and comfort for the Ma tiyes of the Far North. is slowly reyo- ntionizing the primitive manners and customs of these people and win soon develop a civilized race from among the Eskimo tribes of Alaska.
 This is the opinion of Capt 4. John son, on old trapper and trader of the Bristol Bay district The completion Of the Alaska railroad he believes, will further aid in the work of ciYil- izing the Eskimo. Capt. Johnson Is guest at the Arlington hotel. Pre- vious to his recent trip to this city he was thirteen years in the interior of Alaska. hunting and trapping from Bristol Bay inland.
 "The Native Eskimo of the North ern Alaska district" ho asserts, "is naturally much more intelligent chan the Filipino or other Natives of tropi- cal climes whom Che United States has developed into a useful citizen. He is crafty, quick and active, at times too much possessed of these qualities for the convenience of the white set tiers of the North. The Alaska Eski- mo possesses an exceptionally good memory and is easy to teach.
 ',As a consequence Of the possession of all these qualities, the Esidmos who come into closest touch with the white men of the North have fallen into the habits of the better educated brotbers without having had any particular tu- toring in the art Of living They de- mand delicacies of food such as fancy pastries and ice cream at frequent in- teryals and ] was very much surpris- ed during my stay in tho North to find a number of Eshmos thoroughly addicted to the use Of talcum powder Imagine my astonishment at finding Q Native who had bathed il nothing but blood since his infancy dointily sprinkling talcum powder on his face. -CTimesl

MORE DETAILS OF
 INTERIOR MURDER

FAIRBANKS. Jan. 12.-A wire rom Deputy Marshal Anders nt Hot Springs yesterday brought the uuweicome news that stephen Roster, a well known young trapper and Indian trad, CT has probably been murdered In his cabin on Lake Hinchumina, says the News.8iiner This lies just across the divide rom the head Of the Kantishna river, and IS one Of the sources of the Kuskokwim, It is one of the most Isolated spots In Central Alaska, diff ficult of access.
 The news was originally brought by Interior Iad'ars attending the potiatch at CrossiaclIet. and upon learning it Anders communicated with the mar. shal's office here. Rowing Deputy J. c. Wood was at once ordered to the scene by Chief Deputy Clark, in charge here. and be left ,his morning by dog team. Going down the Tanana he VIII 9.ck up thc two Natives who brought tho word and take them with him up the Kantishna. Commissioner Taylor at Kantishna is empowered to hold in- quests and Fosters death will likely be looked into at an Inquest over which he will preside. TO make the return trip will probably require sey- eral weeks.
 Foster is well known here and also we'll liked. He was out last sumner visiting Fairbanks friends and left here sometime in August with a partner and outfit to trade among the Natives. The two men were taken up Che Kan tishna by Nels Hendrickson in his lit- tle power boat They planned 70 es. tabllsh new trading post on the headwaters of the Kuskokwim and lat CT to establish fox farm.
 No mention Is made of Fosters part ner; In fact on further details are ab. solutely lacking and probably will be for some time unless Commissioner Taylor learns the facts and sends them in by messenger.

INFERIOR INDIANS HOLD
 PoTLAToa AZ HOT sPRINes

FAIRBANKS. Jan. I2-More than 800 Indians congregated below Hot Springs this winter to attend the an- nual potlatch.
 The potlateh this year was an m. usually large one. because the Indians have done well the past year in their trapping. Since tho big fox run start cd on the Panama three years ago the Natives have been exceedingly fortu- nate in getting valuable skins which they have made much money from. As the price have gone down 80 low this season it is highly probable that the next potlatch win show tremen- dous drop as It is from this source that most of the potlatch funds come from.
