Nome ChiIdren's Experience

The team from Fort Davis which daily transports the school children to and from
 the post became lost in the blizzard yester- day afternoon and was compelled to stay out all night, says the Nome Nugget of November l9 In addition to the driver of
 the team there were two children and Mrs, o. H. Flowers, who resides at the fort. It seems that after the team pulled out from the outskirts of the town the flying snow caused al landmarks to become obhter- ated and the driver was soon hopelessly at
 sea as to where he was going. After drlv- ing for considerable time along what ap- peared to be the trail, the driver became somewhat bewiidered and turned toward the sea, but after journeying for some distance was induced by Mrs Flowers to return to- ward land On arriving at the edge of the tundra the party became convinced that further attempts to travel were useless, and a halt was made until morning. In the meantime the news of the non appearance of the team had been telephoned to town and searching parties were ordered out from the post and several parties also started out from town, composed of Marshal Jordan, Thomas Ross, George Kilroy, the coast guard and number of soldiers who were in town. These, divided up into several groups and headed by several persons from the fort and town, swept the road below
 the city, but without finding any trace of the missing team. number of the search CTS continued on to the east, finally arrlv- ing at the fort without locating the missing party. The searching continued through out the night with no better success, and as it drew on toward morning it was feared

Fish Tax Law Held 10 Be Valid

That the territorial legislature had the power to pass law regulating the licenses required in the fishing business, both as to catching and canning, was the gst of a decision rendered by Judge Robert W. Jen- nings at Juneau recently in the determina ton of two cases of the territory against the Hoonah Packing Company and the Alaska Pacific Fisheries Company. The question arose through demurrer by the defendants claiming that the legislature had no power to levy tax upon canned fish when the same fisheries company was obliged to pay tax for catching the fish, and arguing that the canning business does not and cannot exist without the necessary catching of fish

A to "Shoestrinq" Claims

Section 233l of the Revised Statutes" says Judge BunneIl, provides that claims upon unsurveyed public lands shall conform 'as near as practicable with the United States system of public land surveys and the rectangular subdivisions of such sur veys.'
 "Defendants' Exhibit "A is map show ing the conflict area of the Frospector As sociation claim with the Anaconda Fraction and the Anaconda Fraction No. ?, also the excess area cast of by establishing new lower boundary fer the Prospector Associa- tion claim. It also shows that the Pros pector Association claims is bounded on the upper, or easterly, end by the K. P. M. claim, and on the southerly side by the Mohawk Association claim and the Lucky Fraction claim. No claim is shown to join the Prospector Association claim on the westerly or lower, end.
 If the decision of the land office is to be followed In Re Snowflake, 37 L. T. 25O as near as practicable has a we'll defined meaning. It is laid down in this decision that the land department is un- willing to approve 'shoestring' claims, or those of irregular shapes unless prior loca- llOIlS ISiucI SuCll lldCllUIIdl lUCdtlOliS ACCCo- sary in order to appropriate unclaimed areas.
 Plaintiff asks the court to validate the Anaconda No. ?, being fractional claim 5280 feet in length by 125 feet in width. The necessity for making location in this form is not shown; on the other hand, the evidence clearly shows that the plaintiff, under Sec 2331, Revised Statutes, could have located the excess of the Prospector Association claim finally cast of, and such location would have been as near as prac- ticable with the United States system of public land surveys"
 While the courts are not bound by the decisions of the land department, still the courts should consider them and give them full force and effect in proper cases" con tinues the decision, and cites TO Fed. 62.

CASE
Judge Bunnelps Decision in Action Tried at Ruby Term of Court
 Last Summer

The decision of Judge Charles E. Bunncll of the Fourth district court in the case ct sam Adams vs the Yukon Gold Company ct a which was rendered on November g last was received in last Saturdays mall by Attorney E. NJ. Stanton. This was what was known as the "Prospector' case and the decision will be of considerable interest because of the fact that it gives dehnlte ruf;ng upon the question of 'shoestrlng claims.
 The plaintiff in bis complaint alleged that by reason of good and subsistlng locations thereof as placer ground he was the owner of and in possession of the Anaconda Frac- ton, 12O feet in width by 2,64O feet in length, and of the Anaconda Fraction No. 7, 125 feet in width by 5,290 feet in length, and that said Anaconda Fraction No. ln- cluded within it's boundaries all of sad Ana conda Fraction.
 The answer denied plaintiffs ownership and alleged that all the ground embraced in said claims was within the boundaries of the Prospector clalm.
 In reply plaintiff alleged the Prospector to be greatly in excess of l6O acres; the failure of defendants to cast ott excess within reasonable time, and that the Pros Dector claim was frauduently located by the orgina! lccators
 The decision cites the testimony III the case and then proceeds:
 "Ihe plaintiff Adams testified in sub stance that after having ascertamed the Prospcctor Association claim a5 stated to be in excess of l60 acres he went to two of the co-owners of the clam and nothed them of his intention to stake such excess; that they thereupon gave thelr consent to rlantiff to stake such excess from either end ar side. It was shown that the remain ing co-owners, some of whom were in the immediate vicinity, were not advised ot the consent given by the two co-oWncrs to Ad- ans; at this act had by them neither been prcviously authorized nor subsequently, ratl- fed Plaintiff contends that having entered under the permission thus extended, the remaining co-owncrs being tenants In com mon. were bound by the act of their CO., tenants. I am satisfied that this contention cannot prevail"
 Judge Bunnell cites the cases of Barson vs. h1ulligan, 16 L. R. A. GU. s. 15l; O'Hencn vs Ruby Gulch Nj: Co.,, 133 Pac. 913; Mckinley vs. Peters, 3 Att. 27; Lind ley on Mines Vel. 5, l9oO; Town o1 told Hll vs. Caledonia NJ. Co.,, II Morrison bl. k. 2U7; Deep River Gold M Co., vs Fox, 1 Morrison M. R. 30l.
 The decision continues:
 It is not charged that the original b. cators iraudulcntly included within the boundaries of the Prospector Association claim sn area greater than l6O acres. It must therefore be admitted that the loca- tion was made in good faith as to the area included" Numerous citations are made
 One claiming the right to make entry of placer mining claim the boun- diaries of which contain an area in excess ot the amount allowed by law, under permls- sion of the owners thereof to stake the ex- cess should first determine the amount Of such excess and stake the same in such manner that the original location thus re- duced in area will not contain an additional course"
