WONDERFUL SPEAR HEAD
OF PREHISTORIC CITIZEN


Recently. while prospecting for
minerals in the hills a mile and half
southwest OF Wardell. John Watts of
this place picked up a very rare speci.
men of the handicraft of the Indians
OF the forgotten ages. The specimen
is in the shape of gigantic arrow.
head. shaped like the smaller heads
we are all familiar with. but OF nam.
moth proportions. The head is made
from white flint, harder than steel,
and is perfectly shaped, without Il
blemish or flaw. II measures eN.
actly l-16 Y 6 sic inches in size and
is GIG OF an inch thick In the heaviest
part. The head. which was no doubt
made by Indians in the early ages TO
be used as weapon. is far too large
and heavy for attachment to an ar.
row, and must have been intended to
be attached to a spear.

LUNING.-Two rich strikes, both

He struck an old shaft filled with de-

found fine body of high grade cop
per.
While the extent of the strike has
not been learned. there is enough ore
in sight to make il important. One

be ore. The discovery adds fully $685.

Alaska petroleum interests have asked the federal trade commission for permission to be heard during the com. missions investigation of the increased price of gasoline. It is understood the Alaska interests will tell the commis
 sion of new petroleum fields in Alaska containing oil of high percentage in gasoline. To fact, it is claimed that in the Katalls fields alone has been man. ufactured gasoline from oil seepages which contain the highest percentage in gasoline of any oil yet discovered. The oils also are of the lighter variety, and are considered the most valuable.
 Washington, March 21.-Hearings were opened today by the house com mittee on territories on the department of commerce bill reducing the author
 ity of the Alaska legislature over fish cries, particularly with reference to taxation. and extending the power of the bureau of fisheries. Alexander Britten, local attorney representing the fishing interests, and Albert L. Thurman, solicitor of the department of commerce, presented arguments for the measure. Capt. J. J. Reynolds, of Seattle, and r. W. Warren, of Portland, officers ot the Pacific Association of Fisheries, also were present. The hear ings will continue for several days.
 "The work of the Alaska bureau of the Cham Der of Commerce is beginning to bear fruit: our winter of discontent is over and a new era is beginning for Alaska" With these words Gov. J. F. A. Strong, of Alaska, expressed his ap. preciation of lhe work done by Seattle citizens in behalf ofthe Northern terri tory, at luncheon given at the Arctic Club by the Alaska bureau. "This new era will place Alaska in the forefront of the mining states of the country and of the world, said Gov Strong. "Few people realize that this wonderful de- velopment in the Northlend has come within the last twenty years. It has come since 1897. Previous to that time there were a few scattered canneries along the southeastern coast. There was but one mine of any importance, the Alaska-Treadwell. Alaska was veritabIe terra incognita.' Today the commerce between Alaska and Seattle totals s1OO,0OO,OOO per year. The boat l came down on had SI,OOOOOO worth of copper ore in her hold. In a short time Alaska will be supplying the needs of the entire American navy from the Matanuska coal fields" Gov. Strong told the assem blaze, which was made up almost entirely of stanch Alaeka boosters, that Seattle was responsible to a large extent for the development of the North country. "There is com munity of interest between Alaska and Seattle that is inseparable and must always remain" said the governor. "Your bureau came to us when we were in need and it has been instrumental in getting for us many things which we now enjoy" Indicative of the volume of transformation which is adrift in the United States today concerning the great Northern territory, Gov Strong told of book on Alaska in which he collaborated twenty-three years ago. "rhree years after the book was pub- lished went to Alaska myself and saw the country" he said. "Since then ] have never mentioned that book"
