DID MOSES KNOW?
Answer to all Wrong Theories.

Before God created the earth and heaven,
He had his delight with of seven;
lie lived with spirits with space all around.
And of his power he knew no bounds,
This IS the God that Moses knew
In the laps of time he created tine earth
And TO every thing he gave birth;
Darkness had its BLACKLIST night,
Until God sent down reys of light,
God 0welt then in space know.
In that vast space of peace and Joy,
Christ was His Son and Darling Boy,
ngels lowering around to sec,
The Son of Gud 20 die for me-
God dWet in space. let christians tell.
Night is past and the day is come
The earth is the peoples home:
The God of space created thtm sure,
He created them and all things pure;
God dwelS in space wonder row.
The greatest time is yet TO come,
When the wicked sees his awful doom;
When the just shall meet in peace with God,
And see the streets of space the angels trod
We know for there is God
Saints will walk in light forevermore.
They know there is a God for sure,
Clouds and darkness have fed away;
And christians children of the day.
And they know their Spiritual God.
Now Bro Kerr let the clouds disappea
And you and dwell in Gods Dear Son without any fear
So DR.. Kerr you must admit,
That your Theory has wit:
1t is like the mud that is on your feet;
1t will make your heart to jump and beat;
For there is God.

 Samuel Silverman, the well known Alaska mining man. who is now in New York City, was named by sher- if Robert Hodge, as one of the many prominent victims sought to be bIackmaied by Sichler and Oth- CTS who are alleged to have put ur large sums.
 Sich,er, jt Is charged, carried on his operations in connection with Isabel Clayburg, now under arrest at Los Angeles Lillian Peters, who has fled to Montana, and oth- CT women here. The ClaybuTg wo- man is TOW fighting against her re- turn here
 Sheriff Hodge is in possession Of many compromising photographs Of the various victims. Sichler, accord ing to the sheriff, operated Q cam era from clothes closets in the homes or flats occupied by the wo- men involved in the blackmail case.

BOND GIVEN ON A
 BROAD PASS PROPERTY

J. c. Van Orsdal, who just re- turned to Fairbanks, after having prospscted in the Broad Pass coun- try last summer, reports that sec tion as a wonderful country. He says there are immense bodies of low grade ores there. Of course, the properties are quite hard to get 10, and as Q result Of the in- accessibility of the country they have not been extensively opened up. There were between 50 and 75 men prospecting in the country all last summer, and everyone of them is satisfied that the country will be big producer in the near future.
 One of the properties in the dis trict, the Riverside, was bonded by a group of Spokane men. They will stock the company this winter and next winter will prospect it ex- tonsively. Operations will be started on a fairly large scale, the largest scale yet attempter in Broad Pass. The Wells boys, the discoverers of the district, still have their hold ings and are well satisfied with them.-Ex.

 I an 'u the Iceland Of Alaska. There are more than 5000 glaciers between here and Seward, where our railroad is building. Hundreds of them come down 10 the level of the sea, and 25 are always drop piue icebergs into the tide waters Alaska is the greatest glacier re- zion of the world, with the eTceP- tions only of Greenland and Antarc- tica There are many glaciers in the southeastern part of the ter ritory, and you can see some Of the biggest Of them by a ride of four CT five days from Seattle on comfortable steamer. You can steam among icebergs as big as ship amid masses Of crystal sap pbire right up to the walls of ice' the ends of ice rivers that are slowly flowing down the sides of the mountains. Now and then the tide leaves icebergs on the shores and the green pines bend over and kiss them with their branches.
 I am now in the Lynn canal on my way to Skagway. Looking through my staterOom window, l can see a wall Of snOw-capPed mountains, which are green almost to the tops. Just opposite me is a great UeI5 Of ice upheld between two lofty peaks. The field is miles in width, and it slopes upward un- til lost in the clouds. That field IS a glacier.
 The true glacial region of Alaska begins a little beyond the interna- tionaI boundary and it runs from there along the coast for a distance
