 seaule seems to be the rosiest ht- tie burgb on the Coast for the writing uD of Alaskans; sometimes tho arti- cles arc right-sometimes they are wrong, but many of the accounts pub ! ushed on the Sound, of Alasllans, show signs Of being inspired by some prac- tical joker
 The other day ? C. Feldcamp' for merly a cost clerk employed by the Alaska Gastineau Mining Company at ! Thane. dropped into Seattle.

KETCHIKAN, Feb. 1.-While round ing the north end of Penonck Island about eight o'clock this morning, the launch Argosy with A. J. McBain, sam Anderson and Frank Johnson on board found an overturned sliff ailoat be- tween Che end of the island the back buoy. Those on board proceeded to Investigate and on turning the boat oV- CT found a trolling line, one end of it fouled in the boat and the other with some weight attached in the water. The line was hauled up, and the dis coyery made that a dead body was attached to it. The body was taken on board the Argosy, and proved to be that of Frank Ross, an old-time prospector and fisherman Of this re- zion. The launch was immediately turned around and the body brought to town and turned over to the au- thorides.
 The condition of the boat and the body leads to the opinion that ROSS had been rowing along trolling about six o'clock last night and had been run down by some power vessel. his skin turned over, he thrown into tho wa. ter and there drowned altor becom- ing enhngled in his trolling line (Niner)

fenced to Five Years.

Sioux City, Jan. 13.-Five carriers
at the Sioux City postoffice, four Of
them veterans in the service, have
received notice from postal inspect
ors inspecting the Office to appear be-
fore them within three days and
show cause why they should not be
removed from the service on account
of disabilities.
Carriers receiving the notices were
William Ryan, Thomas Sturgis, Egg
bert R. Mousseau, Charles Ranke and
Morgan Solvsberg. Ryan, Sturgis and
Mousseau have been carrying mail
for more than twenty years.
Providing the veteran carriers are
removed by Postmaster General Bur
Lesson they will receive no pay as civil
service employees and are not pension
ed by the government.
While postoffice officials refuse to
discuss the proposed removal of the
five carriers, It is stated that one and
probably two of the oldest clerks in
the Office also will be asked to show
cause why they should not be remov
ed for disabilities.
In the opinion of the postal en-
ployes, President Wilson Is behind
the movement, and they plan to send
a VIGOROUS protest to him against
dismissal of employees because OF
their age.
Postmaster General Burleson, soma
time ago announced that he planned
to bring the postoffices of the coun
try to higher state of efficiency. EN-
ployes believe he is endeavoring to
do this by dismissing the veterans
from the service. Others point to an
economy program. The old carriers
get $1,000 annually. II new men were
appointed to fill their places the!
would receive only $500 for the first
year and slight increase each year

IOWA SUPREME
COURT DECISIONS

DeS Moines, Jan. 13.-ln ruling that
the city of Ottumwa may recover the
sum of $1,552.32 from the Mccarthy
Improvement company, the supreme
court declared that the acceptance by
the city of pavement does not release
the contractor from a guarantee to
keep the pavement in repair for a
period of time specified in the con-
tract. This ruling will affect many
similar actions in other cities.
The Mccarthy Improvement COM
pany put in pavement in Ottumwa
in 1910 under a seven year guar
antee. The pavement needed re-
pairs and the company was notified
to do the work. 1t neglected to COM
ply and the city had the work done.
The court holds that as defects in
paving are often slow OF develop
ment, it is proper to require that
contractors file a bond to guarantee
the quality and durability of the i'm
Iprovement. Later if the city insists
on performance of the contract the
contractor is subjected to no hard
ship, says the cop14s.-.. --v ses-.s---.--..~...

asked the court to advance the cas-,
involving tax aid for the Charles Cit!
