AFTER TWENTY YEARS
 OLD TUNNEL IS FOUND.

OGO ' oiN'>1@ 'S V o'> O.
 One of the lost prospects O the Juneau district has again been found,
 The glaciers and snow have reced- ed so rapidly in the Juneau sec ton this summer that workings which have been lost since 1886 have again been found by prospect ors.
 One incident of this kind was brought to light when men working for the Alaska Gold Belt company, in running survey lines across from the Sheep creek basin into the basin of upper Rhine creek recently dis covered a prospect tunnel and a dump of rich salena ore.
 The old prospect hole was near the top of the divide and was in a spot which has not been free from ice for the last 29 years.
 Upon investigating the find fur ther, they discovered that it was I prospect tunnel dug by William Me Nltlu anu JOllll S Ilclu III lllC IdIl of 1SS6
 The tunnel was run to develop a stringer of rich galena ore which carried very good values in gold, silver and lead.
 Giving a reminiscence of early times yesterday, MT Held stated nT iy, this scheme in 1886. We were stop ping at the old Franklin house, which is now the Occidental Annex. It was in May During the night there was fall of two feet of snow, but the next morning the sun was shining and the sky was without a cloud until the latter part of November.
 During the latter part of the sum mer we went down to Rhine creek and discovered this lead way up under the glacier. We did some work on it, running short tunnel into the ore. We didn't take any ore OuI lO lut DtdCu, as II Noulu have to be packed by natives, and that was too expensive.
 We left when winter set in and We have never been able to get back there since that time on account of the ice and snow.
 "McClern left for Cripple creek a few years afterward and I quit look ing for it. Others have looked from time to time, but without success, he said.
 The old prospect tunnel is now on property claimed by both the Alaska Gold-Belt and the Welch Hyder, Mach interests. It is under controversy at present, and is on one of the eleven claims, the till: of which has been assailed in a suit recently filed in the district court.-Juneau Dispatch.

TO SHOCK WORLD
London Prepares Mankind for
Air Raid Reprisals.
To Repay in Kind for Slaughter
of InnOcentS.

London. Sept 1S.-The hope is ex
pressed by the Globe that the publi-
cation that the official story of the
Zeppelin attacks on London was de-
signed not only to forestall and silence
disturbing versions, but to prepare the
world for a stern and persistent policy
of reprisal.
I'VE must answer the enemy with
his own weapons" the Globe contin-
ues I'VE must be done with indig-
nant protests and appeals to the civ
ilized world. The civilized world will
not spare the slaughter of our inno-
cent women or save the blood of little
children. We must fight back, and
hit hard
The official story of the Zeppelin
attack on London points out that in no
instance has there been anything of
military value accomplished by the
Germans.
''The fact is" says the report. that
no public institution of any kind was
hit nor was any power station or ar
senal No damage was done affect
ing the use of any building connected
directly or indirectly with the conduct
of the war"
Condemnation of the slaughter of
the innocents and destruction of pri-
vate property is voiced in strong
terms.

DRIVER IS SUED
Father of Boy Hurt at Auto
Races Goes to Court.
Henry Scott Asks $1,000 DAM
ages From III. L. Fitzpatrick.

Henry Scott, father of Alfred Scott,
the 9-year-old boy who was injured
in the auto smash-up at the fair
grounds Friday afternoon. filed suit
this, mosning in the district couIr
against H. L. Fitzpatrick, the driver
of the car, for S2,990.00.
Henry Scott is a we'll known local
ice cream manufacturer.
The little Scott boy was probably
the most seriously injured of the
victims of the accident. Both of his
legs were broken and he was also con-
siderably bruised about the body. He
was standing right near the fence
WREN the car plunged through and
was unable to get odt of the way be-
cause of the crowd behind him.
In the petition for damages Mr..
Scott states that his son was a small
boy of immature years and without
comprehension of the dan
ger of being near the race track and
that the boy was one of vast crowd
of spectators standing against the
fence, which surrounded the race
track, watching Fitzpatrick. The pc
tition further states that Fitzpatrick
knew that the people were crowded
against the fence but that notwith-
standing his knowledge of the danger
and of the unfitness of the track to
run automobiles thereon at high rate
of speed, he negligently and recklessly
ran his automobile at the rate of sixty
miles an hour.

Mr.. HINES HERE
Chairman of Santa Fe Execu-
tive Board in the City.
He Is Making Inspection Trip
Over COmpany's Lines.

Walker D. Hines of New York, chair
man of the executive committee of the
Santa Fe railway system and general
counsel, spent few hours in Topeka
TODAY. He is on his way to Texas and
the Pacific coast on an inspection
trip.
Mr.. Hines was very optimistic about
the general business conditions to-
day, particularly in comparison with
a year ago Affairs are getting on
their feet again. he said, land the
change is noticeable. A year ago con-
ditions were bad. Capital was timid.
As the European war has progressed
business in this country gradually has
resumed normal proportions Except
for the fluctuations of the stock mar
ket now and then because of war
scares. things in New York and other
eastern points are in excellent shape"
The Santa Fe chairman said that
there were no changes of any sort con-
templated for the railroad. He inti-
mated that no extensions will be built
or smaller lines taken over this fall.
The Pennsylvania railroad, it is re-
ported, will give any employee a
months leave of absence for military
training if desired. When asked if
the Santa Fe will follow suit Mr.
Hines said that the road had nothing
like that in view and probably would
not have.
Mr. Hines declined to talk of the
billion dollar loan that is being pro-
posed oy the aihes don't Know
anything about it except what [ read
in the papers" he said.
There is no special import attached
to Mr.. Illness trip west. He has not
been over the line for a long while
and is travelling merely to inspect the
property from Chicago to California
Several Santa Fe officials met Mr.
Hines at the station. Among them
were c. w. Kouns. general manager:
E. L. Copeland, secretary and treas
urer. J. r Koontz. general freight
agent; ]. NJ Connell, gene raj passen-
ger agent, and Howell Jones, a direc-
