JUNEAU CONCERN TAKE
 BOND ON HATFIELD MINE

JUNEAU, Dec. 26-Under an agreement entered into between the Alaska Bonding & Development com pany, a Juneau concern, and the owners of the MayGeld gold quartz property, located on Prince William sound, the negotiations having been completed, the corporation takes over that valuable property, and will take steps for it's development in the near future.
 The property thus taken over is generally conceded to be an extreme ly valuable one. It consists of group of five claims covering three parallel veins of gold quartz, the main vein running from six to fifteen feet in width, and the two smaller veins averaging one foot and two feet in width respectively. Considerable de- velopment work has already been done on the property, consisting of 67O feet ofstunnel.-Ex.

ALASKA'S BEST YEAR

In 1916 Alaska mines made a min eral production valued at $5O9OO,OOO. The output of Alaska mines in 1915, which was greater than that of any previous year had a value of $32 $50, 900, and the increase in 1916 was therefore over 54 per cent. It was the product of the copper mines that so greatly sweIled the mineral pro auction for the year. This amounted to l20,S50,OO0 pounds, valued at $32,- 100000. There was also, however, an increase in gold output, which in 1916 was $lTO5O,OOO and in 1915 was $l6,- 100000 Of the gold produced in 1916 $lO,64O,OOO is to be credited to the placer mines. Alaska also produced in 1916 silver, lead, tin anthony, tungsten, petroleum, marble, gypsum, and coal to the value of $l,3OO,OOO. During 32 years of mining Alaska has produced $35l 100000 in gold, silver, copper, and other minerals or this amount $27S,OOO,OOO represents the value of the gold, and $GS,OoOOOO that of copper.

THE TSlENTANG BORE.
A Foamins, Roaring Wall of Water
 That Sweeps All Before It.


 In the estuary of the Tsientang river, which enters Hangkow bay in China, there is a remarkable bore, greater even than that at the head of the Bay of Fundy, the six teen foot bore in the Amazon or the great bore of the Ganges. At every tide it rushes up the river, dashing most violently against the north shore, which is protected for about fifty miles, from Raining to Hangkow, by an embankment that was built more than 1000 years ago.
 "Die Wunder der Welt" says that the bore enters the Tsientang river in the form of d great foaming, laundering wall of water from nine teen to thirty feet high, reaching even greater heights during high winds or the full moon, and ad- yanecs for seventy to eighty miles, diminishing as it progresses.
 The spectacle is most striking. On still nights the approach of the bore, while 1t is vet more than a mile away, s heralded by roar like that of Niagara. As it advances the noise becomes louder, all yes sels flee to- sheltered coyes in search of safety, and not even great steam ships dare to face the flood during its early stages, for it would over whelm them or cast them on the shore.
 Finally the threatening torrent arrives, leaping forward, milk white and roaring, with the swiftness of gallopiNg horse-a vcritable ty- phoon of water. It continues up stream until the level of ocean and river are the same; then it stops, and the volume of water that came up so speedily flows slowly down again.
 The outrushing river with its broad mouth and gradually narrow ing banks is really responsible for the phenomenon. On the seacoast the tide rises thirteen feet or so. The outpourins water of the Tsicn- tang acts like q receding undertow and, pushing in under the body of the tidewater causes the top of the wave to topple over. More water flows down, and the performance is repeated until the great bore is born and starts on its four hour journey up the river.

4 Chameieon's Tongue.

The tongue of the chameleon is wonderfully extensile and extcnsi- ble. A naturalist says: "By the for mer word I mean the distance it can be thrown out of the mouth. By the latter word its own elonga- ton is inferred, for 1 am sure there is not space sufficient in the lower part of the mouth to accommodate the eight inch tongue which can be thrown out unless it is greatly con tracted again. We know that it lies folded" in. the mouth, but it folds into a very small space, and when
 I have held a chamelon's mouth
 wide open to try to get sight of this remarkable member it lies so compactly in the loose lower lip that to see it is next to impossible" "

An enjoyable event in Native circles on Monday night was a dance given by the crews of the gasboats "Albatross" and Lake e Bay" in honor of the local mem- bers of the Alaska Native Broth erhood. The dance was held in the band hall, and was hugely enjoyed from start to finish-the finish being at 2 am. During the affair refreshments consist ing of cake and ice cream were served. The visitors who gave the dance are Sitka Natives, who during the past summer have been engaged in fishing at Lake Bay in company with a number of Wrangell Natives. The Sitka fishermen gave the affair as a farewell to their Wrangell friends. They left day or two later for their homes at Sitka.

Waaner as an Acrobat.

Ferdinand Praeger related an in- cident of visit to Wagner at his Swiss home. The two men sat one morning on an ottoman in the drawing room talking over the events of the years. Suddenly Wag' ner, who was sixty years old, rose and stood on his head upon the otto- man. At that moment Wagner's wife entered. Her surprise and alarm caused her to run to her husband, exclaiming, "Ah, Richard, Richard" Quickly recovering him. self, he assured her that he was sane and wished to show that he could stand on his head at sixty, which was more than Ferdinand could do.

Crop prospects continue very fa-
vorable, and while the wet, back
ward spring has delayed work Of
blowing and seeding, yet much
grain is already in the ground and
work Of breaking is getting we'll
under way. While it is getting a
little late for seeding wheat, yet
many farmers plan on planting as
late as May is, if conditions are
FAVORABLE. Some seasons late sown
wheat does very we'll and it is to be
hoped that this will be one of the
exceptional years.

Last Friday was Arbor day. The
day was not formally observed in
Fort Yates, and as far as is known
no trees were planted. The mat
ter of planting trees is not given
the attention in new country that
it should. Every farm should have
its grove, and every town and city
house should have few trees plant
ed about it. Trees furnish shade
in the summer and windbreak in
the winter, and add much to the
comfort and pleasures OF living in
prairie country.
