ALASKAN WINS CAPITAL PRIZE
(Dinubia, Cal, ScntineN

Last Saturday. in Fresno, J, D. Barnes took a chance in the matrimonial lottery when he was welded to Mrs Annie A. Mulr, late of Iditarod, Alaska.
 After the quiet wedding they spent Sat urday and Sunday in Fresno, but returned on Sunday evening to Dnuba, at which time reception was rendered at the home of Mir and Mrs Frank F. Rice, when be- tween twenty-five and thirty friends and neighbors met to bid them welcome, and where all joined in a wedding feast pre- pared by the ladies.
 The inception of this quiet little wedding had it's origin many years ago within the shadow of the Arctic circle. Among the many thousands of men and women who foated down the Yukon river in the early days of the k.ondike boom, i'll company with her son, Louie Muir was one soft spoken, gentle little woman with youthful face and premasUrcly snow-white hair She was a trained nurse and medical student whose arrival in that fever-strlcken mining camp was Ike 8 special diSpensation from Providence.
 Day and night, in double shifts, the grave dgeers toiIed to fill the orders that taxed them to their utmost, for typhoid fever ragged. and doctors were few and trained nurses scarce. Every woman possible was pressed into the desperate service 10 aid the stricken.
 Then came this little woman, whose skill and courage, aided by her softly-spoken cheer, led back from the shadows scores of those Arctic Argonauts, whose love and praise have spread her fame throughout that Arctic empire until ncne is better or more widely known and praised.
 Among the fever stricken victims was our neighbor, j. Dad Barnes. and he is a Cali fornia rancher today, thanks to the assist auce anl advice 50 freely given his less proficient nurse by cur grayhaired lady. During his first lucid moments he observed ofttir.cs his nurse in earnest conversation with this little stranger. Twenty years after he iir,t faet by formal introduction al the h.me of LIrs " Sam Clark this lady to v&rm te owes % much.
 t.st and furious was his wooinE, and now they are man and wife Mrs Muir has been spending the winter in Ns:Ea at the home of her cousin, Mrs Carrie Thoms, The ncNly-m2lrieI couple will make their home on the fruit ranch and chicken farm Of Nr~. Barnes east of Smith mountain.
 Friends and neighbcrs all join in con- e~&tI.tIug the fortunate groom and wi>hing hem i.vsrerlcy -nI happiness.

Civilizations for AIaska

FC1mer Prosident Taft speaking at Wash ingtan and Jefferson College on Memorial day, criticized the foreign policy of the present administration toward Mexico and the Philippines, ard advocated navy which would at least equal that of Ger many and an army reserve that wouI1 bring cut an effective fighting force up to 5c0000 men. Mir. Taft pointed out the need of amply fortifying Alaska, and de- ciarcd that the proposed neutraEzation of the Panama canal was shown by the viala- ton of the neutrality of the Suez camel to be farce. The best neutraIization of 3 canal Is enough guns to defend it e.i"c- tiyel~. We have enough at Panama,' he sald

A,ia2ka Pared Poor'y

In the wave of belated econon.y which swept over the house committee 0n ap"rc- Drations when it reported the sundry civil approximation bill recently. nc service affect ing the Pacific Northwest was hit harder than the coast and geodetc survey. l. was denied the needed money to keep its vessels in commission more than a few months l0 the year. and it was denied any increase m vessels, says q Washington dispatch in thc Seattle Post Intelugencer. It had asked the construction of a new ship, on the lines ct the Surveyor now beng built, to operate with that vessel in Alaska, the two to re placp the outw0rn Gedney and McArthur, which have been junked and sold. Alto the survey had asked for ten biz poWT launches these mostly to be used in Alas kan surveys. The committee rejected all of this in the face of the earnest pleas that had been made before the committee by Secretary RedfeId and Dr. E. Lester Jones superintendent of the service "We have lost more ships for lack of surveys in Alaska than the tOtat cost of Alaska to the United States amounted to-" is what Sec retary ReGfeld told the committee. There are 23, 900 miles of shore line in Alaska yet to be surveyed in addition to the re surveys involved in the wire drag work. Senator Johnson of Maine has introduced in the senate all amendment to the Sundrv bill providing for the items the committee cut out, which he will press for adoption when the bill reaches the senate. It is ex- pected that he will have the earnest sup port of the senators from Washington.

Story of the Traqedy

About 5 o'clock on the afternoon of October 19 1915, Oscar Bouet saw the tracks of very large bear across the Aniaz river, where he had been hunting, and as it was late for a bear to be out he thought he would have no trouble in capturing it. Being too late to go that day, he prepared to make an early start next morning, and intended to follow the animal to the noun tainS if necessary to effect its capture. Early On the morning of the 20th he put his outfit into boat, together with two Aredale dogs, one of which he tied to the seat of the boat. He told Mrs Stubbs that he might not be back that night, and requested her to feed his dogs. Whisthng tune, he was standing up in the stern of the boat, drift ing across the river The bow of the boat apparently struck a log sticking out from a jam, causing the boat to fill with water. He disappeared but almost immediately ap- peared on the bank and waved his toque to indicate that he was all right
 Mrs. Stubbs saw the accident just as the boat was filling with water and ran down to the river bank across from where the boat struck. Boulet said he would have to go to Bear creek. She asked why he did not make fire and dry himself, and he replied he had not matches. She endeav- ored to send matches over to him by tieing them to the collar of dog and sending him across the river That was the last seer of him alive, and the manner in which he met his fate is mere conjecture.
 When it was reported that he had fa;la

to reach Bear creek all hope for his safety was abandoned During the winter Al Walsh came over and ill company with others spent sorne tHea'y-cae days search ing for him and bull ing dam across the Aniak r}er to catch the body in case 1t was in the river. On amount of the deep snow nothing ike d clue was found
