June drew near it's close and also to our regret the fine weather faded. The swells from the southwest and the absence of the current which we had hoped to help us on our way were signs that storm was brewing in the south and was coming up the gulf stream. Thus we continue an- other day. In the evening comes sultry warm wave. Behind blood red fog veils sinks the sun. Continuous flashes of lighting and the choking wet heat an- nounce that We come closer to the gulf stream.

 And I thought about how ex-Governor O'Neal would miss my face at the table, and how the Alabama delegation would grieve over my absence, and how even old Joe Wilson, the Presidents brother, who used to write politics for the Nash vile Banner, and then go right home to his wife every evening without telling me good-by, would yearn to say "howdy" to me.
 So Thursday afternoon I went around to the Thirty-third street entrance to the Waldorf and walked in anyhow l walked down Peacock alley, which, you may have heard, is the place where some men and women meet either by design or accident, and asked the major domo, or whoever it was, where the Wilson lunch- con was. And he said: 'Yes, it was. but it's all over now" and I learned I had made a mistake in the time set for it, and woald have missed it even if the highest authority had given me 9 ticket, so I didn't feel bad at all about it, and besides, I met some of the boys afterward in another part of the hotel, where they had some items on the menu that were not included in the luncheon, and we had the President all elected again and everything long before the sixth round.

 The oceans uncertain movements and the rapid changes in the atmos- phere are constant companions of the sulf stream.

 In addition to this, the weather be- comes angrier. We have a rough sea; heavy hailstorms whip against the deck and lash the frothing waves. The strength of the wind is between "11" and '12."

ASTRONOMIC NAVIGATION

The Ialr weather gave me time Tor another occupation, which was not en- tirely without importance for the sue cessful continuance of the voyage The sextant was taken out, and I began again to find out by the aid of the sun our exact location something which was quite necessary after the stormy days had" passed. Two wonderful clear serve the stars and to decide their distances. After the long and inactive period on the shore there is craving to take out sailors necessary in- struments, to handle the chronometer and the seXtant, with circle and chart pick the ships location, even if there are many difficulties to overcome.
 Astronomic navigation on a U-boat is certainly not an easy matter. Even in the usual navigation of q U-boat there are things which are new to an old sea captain, which take time to get accustomed to. From the low place on the coming tower ore has not the usual view of the wake One has to maneuver things differently, make diff ferent calculations as to distances, which one is not used to.

SAYS LIQUOR INTERESTS
 BEHIND GIRLS CHARGE
Especial to Gateway by United Press)

Special to Gateway by United Press)
 OROVILLA, Cal, March 9. -- The Rev. Madison Slaughter Baptist pastor of Chico, was slated for trial here today on the first of five indict- ments charging him with misconduct with 15 year old Gertrude LamsOn, daughter of member of his cOngre- gation, Slaughter insists he is the victim of trumped up charges on the part of liquor interests, who here and elsewhere have sought, he says, to "get" him. On the other hand, the girl claims, the charges are true, though her parents publicly an- nounced that they did not credit her story and have stood hrmly by the minister. The girl says the alleged misconduct occurred on Slaughter's ranch and that afterwards he and his family threatened trouble for her if she exposed their alleged relations. Since the indictments were returned last month, Slaughter has not been occupying his pulpit, saying he wish ed first to have his name cleared. The case has aroused keen interest in the community. Slaughter's flock has stood by him valiantly, insisting that the case was baseless in fact. Some what of an additional sensation was caused when Slaughter's bondsmen, for the most part church members, failed to qualify on his bail, as they were shown not to be on the tax lists.

 THIS MONTH.
Especial to Gateway by United Presg)

! Special to Gateway by United Press)
 WASHINGTON, March 9.--With a satisfactory labor supply end good weather conditions, Chairman W. C. Edes of the Alaskan Engineering Commission hopes to have in opera ton nearly one third of the proposed government railroads in Alaska, by ! Nov 1. It is the hope of the com mission that the work on the railroad can be pushed to the Matanuska coal field by fall.
 What the opening of this railroad will mean in the development of AL aslSa is merely a matter of conjecture, but the fact that a town of 1900 has grown up at Anchorage, one of the terminals of the railroad, since the announcement of the route, indicates that the development of the north country will be great when the road finally is completed
 During the coming season it is 1 planned to construct about l5O miles, which will comprise a connecting line between the Alaska Northern rail way, now owned by the government, and the lines under construction, a branch line running from Anchorage into the Matanuska coal fields ana several miles of railroad running out of Fairbanks, the proposed northern terminal of the lines.
 The construction of this railroad is a tremendous engineering task. At Broad Pass the lines will run through a stretch of twelve miles of almost solid rock, which will entail the build ing of numerous tunnels, the longest of which will be HOO feet. At Broad Pass also there will have to be con- structed a steel bridge 1900 feet in length and at Fairbanks several smaller bridges will be built.
 Under favorable conditions, by May 1, 4OOO men will be employed on the construction work, and more than 8 million dollars worth of machinery taken to Alaska from the Panama Canal zone will be in operation.
 Although 20 miles of rail already have been laid between Matanuska and Anchorage, no attempt has been made to operate it. However during the present winter the Alaskan com missiotF has been operating the AL aska Northern, which the government has taken over, for a distance of 34 miles out of Seward. Three trains a week have been run over the line, and the operation has been a financial success, since the cost of maintenance is not included in the operating ex- penses. Before the Alaska Northern railway can be operated to the full extent of it's II miles, a large amount of repair work will have to be done, and this will be undertaken during the coming summer.
 If the present plans of the commis- sion materialize and force of 4OOO men is put at work, it is believed a large part of this force will locate in Alaska and take advantage of its mineral and agricultural wealth, and thus the first step in the development of the country will have been ac- complished.
