nmachuk.-The body of Alex Sic- otte, who was lost in a blizzard last March, was found on the 18th inst. by Dick Escholt, after lying in the snow about two monts. The body was found on the right limit of the river near the mouth of Iowa creek. It was lying in a snow bank in the attitude a man would assume on turning for a sleep, the arms under the head for a pillow, proving conclusively that having be. come exhausted from his wanderings and realizing that he was lost he calmly lay down for his last sleep.
 The Alaskan engineering commission, yielding to urgent requests on the part of the residents of Anchorage, has given out information with respect to the future of that town from the stand point of the railway system. The har- Dor improvements contemplate dredg. ing basin at the mouth of Ship creek, to be 100 feet at the bottom and 300 feet at the top, which will run from a point opposite the present administra tion building to deep water in the channel of Knik arm, a distance of some $500 feet. The improvements will not be made until next year.
 
 A. c. Mcleod, the we'll known pros pector, who arrived at Flat City on last Christmas eve from the Kuskokwim river, suffering from frozen feet, which were amputated by Dr. Auringer of the Flat hospital, left this city last Tuesday for Seattle, where he will be outhtted with artificial Trilbys. Mir. McLeod's long detention indoors made serious inroads to his resources, so Mrs. George Mutchler (who is always 10 the good) took upon herself the task of raising funds sufficient to take the old pros- pector Outside in comfort. By placing subscription lists in various parts of the district and making trips to all the big mining plants in the camp, Mrs. Mutchler within two or three days secured the sum of s1,3O85O for the worthy cause. By equally good finan- ceering she reduced Mir. McLeod's ob- ligations to s249.5O, which was paid by her, and sent the unfortunate old timer on his way rejoicing with s1,O59 in his inside pocket.-Iditarod Pioneer.
 Copper investors will doubtless be astouished to learn that the worlds lowest cost copper producer is located in Alaska. They will be surprised also to know that it is now shipping at the rate of 6OOOOOOO pounds of copper per annum, made at a cost not far from cents per pound. The general public would probably recognize the propo sition as the famous Bonanza mine, in which, with the railroad connection thereto, J. P. Morgan & Go. and the MessTs. Guggenhelm have invested many millions, but today the Kenne- colt Copper Corporation embraces not only the Bonanza, but the Jumbo mine, a property equally rich and equally important as a copper producer, to- Rether with an 85 per cent interest in the Beatson Copper Company, a 10000, producer. The recent pur- chase by J. P. Morgan & Go. of slO,0OO,- GOO six per cent 10-year bonds of the Kennecott Company make timely a presentation of what the company owns, what it has achieved to date, and what are it's prospects for the future.- Boston News Bureau.

Joseph A. Holmes, director of the United States Bureau of Mines, died at. Denver, Colo, on the 18th inst, after lingering illness. Holmes was we'll known in Alaska, having played an portant part in the mineral affairs of the territory, paying particular atten' tion to the coal deposits in the Bering river and Matanuska coal fields. He also served on the railroad commission appointed by President Taft.
 In the Pribilof islands, in the Boring sea, the government every year, begn- ming with August, takes careful cen~ sus of the fur seal pups. They are born about the first of that month and aoon after the fathers and mothers be- take themselves to the sea. For a period six weeks from birth the pups will not go near the water. When they do they become sea animals and a chance at the census is lost. So while they ara resting on the land the gov- ernment takes a count of noses. The narrow beaches have holes and creVices whence the seals are driven to the open areas, where it is an easy matter to count them. The last full count last year showed 92,269 pups, while the full seal herd was 269,3O5. This census gives as accurate an estimate as the average cattleman has of the animals on his range. The nun Der is expected to grow steadily until it will reach be- tween 2OOO0OO aud 3,OOO,0O0. So we are cultivating the seal as we long have been the salmon, and as the Germans have long been cultiyating their for ests, allowing only SO much to be sacri- feed each year as may be safely done without menacing the supply.-Iudian- apOlis News.
 Officers of the British steamer Prince Rupert, of the Grand Trunk Pacific Steamship Company, are quoted by the Seattle Post Intelligencer as having said that the big floating drydock at Prince Rupert, with it's foundry and machine shops, is expected to be ready for operation by the early part of August. Prince Rupert will then have on its harbor front the finest drydock plant on the Pacific coast. The cost of the undertaking is said to be approxi- mately S1,5OO,OOO. The dock consists of three units, with a total capacity of 10000 tons. There will be two end sections of 5000 tons each, and a mid- dle section capable of holding vessel of 10000 tons. All the units are inter- changeable, and each dock is complete in itself, with pumps and air com. pressors. If necessary, all three sec. tions, or unite, could be joined to hold a vessel GOO feet long and weighing 2O,- GOO tons. In addition to the dock there are four other parts to the plant, namely: the foundry, which will be able to make castings as heavy as twelve tons; boiler shop for repairs, as we'll as the construction of boilers; machine shop, which is equipped among other things with lathe having 72. inch head; a ship shed and carpenter shop, l6Ox3OOO feet, and large power house equipped with two large turbo. generators and a 15,OOO foot air com- pressor. The work of construction in connection with the drydock and it's plant has been under way since the beginning of 1912. and the builders will soou be replaced by staff of operators.

The Petersburg Commercial Club has decided to offer prizes of S15, 51O aud S5 for the three best written articles setting forth the industries, resources, climatic conditions, location and gen eral information relating to the town.
 The Arctic Brotherhood camp of Seward has decided to erect its build. ing and at a recent meeting the matter was left up to the trustees to decide as 10 the size of the new building, the manner in which it is 10 be financed and the other details.
 By the fire at Valdez, Colonel W. P. Richardson has suffered losses that can hardly be estimated. AmonRst the papers of his that were stored in the Road Commission office were his com missions in the army all the way from the rank of lieutenant upward.
 The steamship Fimuler has already sailed from Panama with equipment for the government railroad in Alaska. She has 25OO tons aboard, including locomotives, power plants, dump cars and construction equipment. She will put off the first load at Anchorage.
 Built at Alameda, Cal, in 1899, the wooden steamship Bertha found its grave on the northwest coast of Kodiak island, where, after striking a rock, she was beached and consumed by fire, to gether with her cargo consisting of lumber and other material that was to be used in the construction of a can nery at Koggiung. No lives were lost. She belonged to the Pacific Alaska Navigation Co.,, the Admiral line.
 The father of Mae Eldorado Edgreu, famous in gold rush days as the "Klon- dike baby" died recently in Minnesota. In 1898, when just graduated from Wisconsin university, he married a classmate, and together they sought wealth in the great North. The mother died iu camp there, but pounds of gold were contributed by "the boye" with best wishes to the baby. The wee girl was for long the only representative of her sex in camp.-SprinRfield Repub. lican.
 Following the expressed wish of the governor that new name be given to the town of Anchorage, "Matanuska" is suggested as being appropriate because of the geological position of the town in relation to the coal 6elds This will doubtless be the shipping point for Matanuska coal and is a name we'll known throughout the United States identifying this section of Alaska. The town in the coal fields could be called "Chickaloon" and the junction could be designated "Chickaloon Junction. "- Cook Inlet Pioneer.
 The Cordova Times, which has been nursing a grouch ever since the govern ment railroad passed them by on the other side, says: "Despite our desire to be entirely fair to our sister town of Anchorage, and the government of- ficials who are bossing creation over there, we do feel that the sale of lots in Alaska at the prices asked for them by the land office, is subject to the everest crititicism. The government of the United States is too big a cor poratiou, too important an institution, to play the part of land speculator and carry it off with good grace"
