KOYUKUK GIVES PLURALITY TO
 THE DELICATE

The Koyukuk returns are in. They came last night in message to Chief Deputy Marshal Joseph II. Mil Ter from Deputy Marshal C. L. Naw- ter of Tanana The message stated that the returns, which are from all the precincts, were brought overland by special messenger.
 The only returns given in the mes sage to Deputy Marshal Miller were those for delegate. Wickersham car ried the Koyukuk. That is, he re ceived siXty-one votes, while Sulzer received forty-three. Thirtythree votes were cast for Lena Morrow Lewis, the Socialist candidate.
 The returns from Woodchopper, small precinct on the upper Yukon river, were bulletined by the signal corps office yesterday. Woodchopper went for Sulzer by vote of seven to one Therefore the vote for this division, as figured by The Citizen, stands 1,641 for Sulzer and 1,633 for Wickersham, Sulzer having a pIu- rality of nine votes.
 Taken together with the reported vote from the other divisions, the vote reported yesterday cuts down Sulzer's lead in the territory to sixty two votes It is stated that approXi- mately 25O votes in the Third diVi- sion are to be heard from. The First is practically all in. The Mar shall City vote in the Second has uot been reported, nor has the vote from the small precincts to the north of Nome In this division there are a few more small precincts to be heard from, notably three small precincts in the Kuskokwim, Jack Wade on the upper Yukon river, Russian Mission on the lower Yu- kon, and the nine votes from the kantishna country. The election is therefore anybody's yet.
 The Citizen has wired for a com plete report from all other divisions for publication tomorrow. A new report, however, unless the vote of more unreported precincts has been received, is not expected to material ly effect the table herewith pub lished, which Is as follows:

Century-Old Diary.

Henry Crabb Robinson in his diary
repeats many stories of the judges,
Lord ELlon and Lord Mansfield among
the rest. The latter, struggling with
a congested calendar, on one occasion
announced that he would mold court
on Good Friday. At once there was
rebellion on the part Of the barristers.
Sergeant Davey, with some warmth
and more humor, arose and said:
"There has been no precedent since
the days Of Pontius PLATE" Never
theless, Mansfield held court with the
attorneys, and without the barristers.
Another one that deserves to be res
directed from the diary is as follows:

wonderful. In some ways it resembles
the Lost River chasm in Vermont, and
to my mind is more interesting than
the Flume in New Hampshire. After
going nearly mile through the woods
you suddenly come upon this freak.
There are stones weighing so tons at
least that have been hurled about.
Some of them stick out at least Is feet
from the sides of the chasm, 40 feet or
mere in the air. There are caves where
ice remains much Of the summer, and
at the end of the chasm is wonder
full cave, on the floor of which is an
immense slab Of stone that looks just
like giants coffin. It is called the
Devils, Cave.
"The vegetation there is remarkable.
Great trees grow apparently from the
solid rock, their roots often going up
10 to Is feet over the bowlder, then turn
down over it to reach the soil. If a
balloonist should start from the Rocky
mountains and land at this spot, he
would think it was a part Of the
Rockies. Speaking as private citi-
zen, I believe it would be a great
shame to let few dollars stand In
the way of preserving this great nat
ural wonder for the people of Massa.

Box is another great cavern, its cell
ing lined with icicles until the middle
of June. "Pulpit Rock" is wedge
shaped piece 40 feet high, from which
many a sermon has been preached by
the unordained.
For all it's ruggedness, the trip
through Purgatory chasm may be
made by women, although it is not q
place for silk hosiery and thin-soled
pumps.
Some of the rocks in the chasm are
as large as a bungalow, and the mass
of powders extends far into the earth.
It is possible for one to go down into
great crevices until we'll out of sight
below the surface, and in other places
rocks may be dropped into other holes,
and they rattle from bowlder to bowl
der until the sound of their downward
progress is lost in the depths.
In spite of the ravages of forest fires
in this section, the virgin wood sur.
rounding the chasm for more than 8
mile has not been harmed.
