MINERS KILLED AT TREADWELL
 IN EXPLOSION

TREADWELL. Dec 1.-Two Italian laborers, Giuseppe Ciata and Giuseppe Giorandano, were killed in the Tread we'll mine this morning about nine o'clock The two men were working together bulldozing, in the intermed- fate drift about twenty-five feet above the lf50.foot level of the m'ne. The work of bulldozIng consists in blast. ing large stones or boulders, and in order to do so it is necessary to carry about large quantities of giant pow der It was this supply of powder that was exploded. No one knows what produced the explosion. as the men were alone when the accident oc- cured. The force of the explosion blew both of them off the informed late drift and they fell down through the raise to the level below. dis tance of about twenty-five feet Cir andino's age could not be learned but he was about 20 years of age, unmar- ried. and been at work at Treadwer more than a year He had been a resident of this country about seven years. He has no relatives In the United States
 Clatta was 41 years of age, and is survived by a widow and four ch1- dren who reside in the county of Fal- tris, province of Bologna. Italy, bro- ther Angelo Ciatta, an employee at Treadwell, and a cousin. Carail Sar- fino also an employee at Treadwell. He came directly from the old coun- try to Treadwell. where he has worked for the last two and one-half years.
 There were at least six sticks of powder exploded, according to Super intendent Wayland and there might have been more. Pete McKenz'e, shift boss. was approaching the place where the men were at work, when the explosion occurred, and was about 30 feet from them on the lower level. The force Of the explosion was so great that 1t knocked him down. al- though he was not injured.
 The funerals will take place from the Catholic Church. but the time 1t will be held has not yet been set.

DOUGLAS ST. ANN'S
 HOSPITAL GROWING

DOUGLAS, Jan. 4.-The splendid addition to St. Ann's hospital is near Ing completion. S olidly built on @ substantial concrete basement. 1t will afford % aditional bed rooms. These rooms are bright and airy: the large windows in each Of them give them most cheerful appearance. It would be difficult to lnd on the Pacific coast more cmfortabie quarters for those who may be SO unfortunate as to ex- perience some of the many ailments the human race is her to- The snow white plastering of the cntire addi- ton. the beautifully stained wood-iln- ish. the comfortable beds. the uniform heat from the best of heating appar- atuses. namely tho Honeywell hot water system; In a word everything Is calculated to furnish the greatest possible comfort to the patients. The plumbing Is supposed to be the last word in sanitary requirements There are six bathrooms and lavatories in the new wing and spacious operating room with large plate glass windows and the latest electrical fixtures. The walls Of these rooms are white enam- eied and tho floors nicely tiled A new special feature in Alaska hos pitals is a long solarium on each of the floors where the patients may en- joy all the in and outside sunshine with which Southeastern Alaska is SO blessed. The Sisters of st. Ann de- serve great credit for the foresight and selfsacrlflcing spirit in mourning such a heavy debt to provide a shel- ter for our poor afflicted ones. The relief of suffering was their only aim: for th.s reason even the schoolhouse. that used to be imediately back of the main building. was moved farther away at great expense. SO that the lusty youngsters would not cause any annoyance. A special structure has been set apart as a detention hospital for contagious diseases: this part of the institution is entirely separated from the man as we'll as from the new building and contains four large rooms comfortably heated and pro vided with two bathrooms and lava tories.
 A laboratory. an indispensable fea- ture in the medical profession of our days. where the doctors will have ev- cry available facility to diagnose the latest as well as all future symptoms of any new ailment. is under serious consideration Inquiries about the latest and most up-to-date X.ray ma chimes have already been made.
 The actual realization of all these improvements justihes tho pride and growing independence of Douglas and Treadwell people who will no longer have to cross the Channel or go down to the States for more comfortable quarters in case Of sickness.

CUPID INVADED
 AT THE eAsTINEAU

A near riot occurred at the Gas. tineau Hotel last night and for the time being 1t was uncertain whether the municipal protection force, fire department or federal forces would be called. The innocent cause was two part. It was first started by yester. days issue of The Emipre. The sec. ond cause was the marriage of Charles Hadd. The Empire had been on the street but a short time when tho wireless telephone began getting in its work.
 To come right down to brass tacks at Il o'clock last night a noisy bunch raided the Gastineau. demanded the persons of one Charles Hadd and wife, and made their demands with such force that none of the hotel at taches entered one bit of resistance or objection. Therioters then swarm ed up the stairs, battered down the doors to the bridal suite fIguratively speaking, and the rest was easy. This morning Mir and Mrs. Hadd had diff. ficulty in leaving their suite as the door was tied securely with rope. old shoes were tackled on 1t, but every. thing finally ended happily.

FARMERS ASSOCIATION EXPLOITS MATANUsKA;
 BIG CITY PROMISED

A letter was received at the land office this morning which should make Alaskans in general and the public in the states in particular sit up and take notice Not so much the letter itself but the matter printed on the letter head.
 The letter was from Joseph Conway regarding a land application and was written on Q letter head of the Mat anuslsa Valley Farmers Association. When the envelope was opened and the letter head flashed, even the land office force became dizzy.
 Just think, away up Tn the Matan- uska country, a farmers association. It looked like a Jules Verne story of the future. But there 1t was and the letter head carried a most remarkable statement It stated In bold baby blue-inked type that the Matanuska was most ideal place for a large city. and was surrounded by the best of agricultural lands. On all sides of this remarkable country are bound less areas of gold bearing lands. There is abundant water power for factories and other commercial en- terpr'ses. In fact the Aiatanuska is the greatest garden spot of all Alas. lJa. E. F. Kenger is president of the AIatanuska Farmers Association and Charles Martin is the secretary-treas- urer. Those fin the states desiring To- cations on this tract should most as- suredly get in touch with that live wire booster organization.
