The cub had an excellent pelt, except for the holes st the neck,
 VaIdez-The powder house of the Granite mine on Hobo bay near Port Wells, was destroyed by an explosion Thursday, according to word brought here from the superintendent.

 The Nome Weekly Nugget of recent date says: ltis stated that 100 reindeer will arrive in this city from Golovin about the first of the week. The ani- mals will be taken out on the tundra back of Nome and will later be slaugh- tered and the carcasses shipped to the outside markets This shipment of reindeer will probably be the beginning of series of like character from this section and will really mark the begin ping of a new industry from which Seward peninsula will ultimately derive considerable profit now that the law allows the unrestricted shipment of reindeer meat from Alaska.
 Every traveller on the upper Yukon river has noted a conspicuous white bed, to inches in thickness, that occurs on the river banks. This is made up of volcanic ash derived from volcano located in the northern margin of the St. Elias range more than 100 miles to the south. Though geologi- cally speaking the material is of recent age, yet it was probably erupted l,4OO years ago. There are, of course, no historical records of this eruption, but in the course of explorations in Alaska much has been learned about the dis tribution and thickness of the material elected. It originally covered an area of over 14O,O0O square miles and some of it was carried. over 45O miles from the volcano. The deposit varies in thickness from 300 feet near the volcano to an inch or two at the margin of the area covered by it. A rough estimate indicates that over 10 cubic miles of material was elected at the time of this eruption. During the eruption of Kat mai volcano in southwestern Alaska in June, 1912, about five cubic miles of ash was elected, and about the same amount fell from the Krakatoa eruption in 1883. This Yukon eruption is there- fore comparable in intensity with some of the larger eruptions ot historical time, All the available information about this subject is summarized in a paper entitled, "An ancient volcanic eruption in the upper Yukon basin, by Stephen R. Cspps, issued by the United States geological survey as Professional Paper 95.D.
