MOOSE ARE PLENTIFUL
 ON RENAL PENINSULA

Dr. Baughman, the game warden for the Seward district reports that moose are more plentiful than ever on the Kenai peninsula. He recently returned to Seward from a trip over his district and reported that all the way from Cooper Creek to Kenai he found hundreds of moose.
 He reports that for some reason many of the young moose are dying and believes that fully twenty per cent of the calves will be lost this winter although the old moose are in fair condition notwithstanding the severe weather. In travelling one mile the game warden found no less than seven carcasses of the young an- imals. The extreme cold weather is believed to be the cause, or it might be something poisonous which the animals found to eat.

RECOVERING
 FROM FROST BITES

E. Rohrbach, the fisherman who was brought to Valdez from Jacks s Bay during the early part of the week suffering from badly frosted hands, is reported to be rapidly improving and will suffer no permanent injur- les from his terrible experience.

After cutting his boat free of the ice he attempted to reach Valdez, but his engine refused to work and he drifted across the narrows near the mouth of Jacks bay, where his boat was smashed on the rocks.
 He was rescued by the launch Why and was later brought to Val dez on the Post launch Donaldson, which had been sent down to inves- tigate the report that some one might be in trouble as a boat had been seen on the rocks.

THE VALUE OT FRESH AIR.

The Department or Health of this city in his latest weekly bulletin cites cases that strikinaly illustrate the value of clean, fresh air, as a remedy for patients for whom many forms of treatment had failed and the only resort seemed to be surgical opera tion. The lesson is too good to be missed.
 The patients were children who as the result of constrit tion of the laiy ynx and consequent difficulty of br.ath- ing following laryngeal diptheria, had been compelled to wear tube in their throats for from two to eight years. Altogether 22 of these p'tia-

Cold Weather Forces Move Of Road
Camp
Forced by the cold weather to aban-
don work on the prairie roads near
Briggsdale, Superintendent Warren, in
charge of the convict camp moved his
men last Saturday to point north of
Windsor on the Severance road, which
will be graveled and put in good condi-
ton. The camp is now composed Of %
men, with horses and equipment, and
the move required period of two days.
When the camp was moved from the
Johnstown district to Briggdale it was
hoped that the men could establish q
permanent camp and remain there thru
the winter, but the freezing tempera-
ture made surface work impossible, and
as there was no work to be done except
grading, the men worked at great dis
advantage and the work became too ex-
pensive to justify continuing it during
the winter.
In the Severance district the men will
be engaged in crawling. securing the
material from nearby hills. The cold
weather will not interfere with their
work to any extent and it is believed
they can continue without interruption
thru the winter. County News.

she was heart and soul with Para

for an orchestra OF any size, from n
