MAN AND WIFE
STAY IN TREE

Mr. and Mrs. Cordial, who had just
moved into a cabin out at Mile 3, two
or three days ago, where Mr. Cordial
was working for Mr. Stewart on the
road, were forced to leave their cabin
at II o'clock Sunday night, the
water having reached the windows.
Mr.. Cordial had to carry his wife to
a tree about twenty-five feet from the
cabin, where he built a seat for them
both. They were compelled to stay
in the tree until o'clock in the morn
ing, with trees falling around them
all night long, their tree starting to
lean over They were rescued about
one o'clock the next day.
Mrs. Cordial was attired in a pair
of overalls, heavy shoes etc, all be-
longing to her husband, her own cloth
and that of her husband, along with
the furniture in the cabin, being COM
pletely ruined
During the night they could hear
the Burns family, who lived near,
calling for help, which made them
doubly anxious.
John Rosness and Anton Iverson,
when they heard that the Burns fam
lily were needing help, took push car
and speeder from the machine shops,
put on a dory with the help Of four or
five men from the cannery, and start
ed out to the house.
They succeeded in getting Mr. and
Mrs. Burns and their children from the
top story of the house and sent them
in on the speeder, afterwards, along
with Mr.. Burns going back in search
of other people in distress.
Mr.. Burns lost all his chickens, two

COUNTRY'S PRODUCTIVENESS

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 1.-THE
Industrial Workers of the World men
ace is important in certain sections.
Instead Of everyone, proprietor, clerk
and laborer alike, feeling it a patri-
otto duty to work a little harder and
a little longer in order that we may
spare men for waging the war to
bring peace, and safety to the world,
efforts were made to diminish both
hours and output Of work. The result
is of course to hamper the effective
ness of this country's efforts, which
in effect is the same as aiding to in
crease the enemy's effectiveness.

ELK MENACE CROPS
IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

BAKERSFIELD, CAL, Sept. IL
Two hundred elk from the hills have
been eating the hay on the lands of
James Arp, rancher in Buttonwil-
low district, and Arp has appealed to
the California Fish and Game Com
mission for relief.
With hay at $40 ton and all the
elk enjoying hearty appetites, Arp be-
came desperate and wrote the game
commission that the wild animals were
denuding the range needed for his cat
tie and horses.
To kill an elk in California is fell
ony, carrying a maximum prison SEN
tence of two years. The game COM
missions attorney contends that the
commission cannot legally give Arp
permission to kill an elk. Arp is con-
sidering the plan of engaging cow
boys to herd the elk off his lands.

Monday afternoon, w. r. Hooker,
superintendent of the Seward diyi-
sion Of the Z. & r., for the Alaskan
Engineering Commission, stated that
complete telephone communication be
tween Seward and Mile so, the end
of the Seward division had been eff

Owing to the many washouts and

many places.
Hooker started in on the job Sun
day afternoon and remained in the
harness all of Sunday night, getting
in touch with his men, and giving in
structions for repair work to begin
as early as possible Monday morn
ing,
Starting at Mile 10 one gang of
linemen worked toward Seward, re-
pairing the line as they advanced,
while other gangs in relays worked
toward the Turnagain arm end of the
line, with the result that at five
o'clock Monday afternoon, complete
wire communication was in operation
on the Seward division of the govern
ment railroad.
At dark Monday evening Anchor
age could not be reached, owing no
doubt to the fact that lines were down
on that division.

HISTORIC VILLA
IN old HANDS

ROME, Sept. 11.-After 337 years
the historic Villa Farnesina, located
on the banks of the Riber a half mile
distant from st. Peters church, will
again be occupied by descendants of
its original owners and builders, the
Princes of Chigi
The head of the house, Prince Lu-
dovic Chigi, who last year was ap-
pointed TO the important position of
Marshal of the Holy Church and the
Guard Of the Conclave, and, there
fore, rules the Vatican during the in
term between the death of Pope and
the election of a new one, recently
disposed Of the Chigi palace to the
Italian government. 1t is stated that
by this sale he was put in a position
to buy back the Villa Farnesina, built
in 15O9-11 by the papal banker Ago
stino Chigi and notable because of its
frescoes by Raphael.
The palace will be restored and re-
furnished as it was when first occu-
pied by the Chigi family, an auction
sale having been held recently to rid
the palace of the furniture left there
by the King of Naples. The return
of the Chigis is considered remarkable
since it is proverbial in Rome that
when once a family leaves its home,
it leaves forever.

ALASKAN TRAVEL
BELOW NORMAL

As a result of the entry OF the
United States into the European war,
tourist travel to Alaska during the
summer months fell somewhat below
the high records of previous years.
This decrease was more than offset
however, by the increase in the num-
Der Of ordinary passengers, accord
ing to statistics just compiled by the
Pacific Steamship company.
Officials of the company's traffic de
partment declare that the number of
persons who travelled for purely busl-
ness reasons had been unprecedented.
This class includes commercial sales
men, buyers and persons engaged in
fishing, mining and other industries in
Alaska. The number of resident Alas
kans who have made trips back and
forth has also been heavy.
This would seem to indicate heal
thy business condition in Alaska, de
spite the slump in gold mine oper-
atoms and most people, we believe,
are awakening to the fact that great
wealth lies in mining her industrial
metals such as copper, and in her coal
and timber resources and her great
fishing industry. These latter are pO-
tential sources of wealth and are just
in the infancy of their development
Every year to come will see wonder
ful improvements.
