The drowning was not witnessed by Mrs. Utrecht from the shore, but as her husband and Anderson did not return the next day she surmhssed that some accident had happened, and she set out in company with native to search the beach for their bodies. Not withstanding she was approaching confinement, she covered sixteen miles along the shore, and was un- successful, and as her little children were alone the courageous woman was compelled to turn back. The next day she started out again and found the body of Anderson, which she and the native buried on the beach, but no trace could be found of her hus- band.
 A week or so later a native came into Unga and reported the drown Ing and also the finding of the body of Utrecht on the beach. A party con- sisting of Marshal Casler, the U. S. Commissioner and others, was at once

 remained together and buried them.
 He also saw a huge bear, the largest
 he said, he had ever seen, nearby, and fired two shots at the animal but it bolted into the grass and made it's escape. It was also found that the same bear, apparently, had visited the beach where Andersons body was and attempted to dig up the coffin
 and had partially succeed.
 So far as known this is the first time, at least in Alaska, where it has ! been recorded that a bear carried off dead body or attempted to dig one up.
 Utretcht left wife and five small children. Mrs. Utrecht is a Creole,
 having been born of white father
 and native mother, and is a very ca
 pablo woman. Unable to read or
 write when married, under the in-
 structon of her husband she learned
 both accomplishments, and has since
 taught her children, there being no
 school near. Mir. Chester vouches for
 her excellent character and states that
 she is competent worker and would
 recommend her highly to anyone
 needing an efficient housekeeper. She
 is sadly in need of employment as she has her small family to support She has also her mother to support, who could take charge of the children if Mrs. Utrecht could obtain employ mcnt.

made up and boat was chartered to take them to Canoe Bay. The body of Anderson was taken up, placed in a coffin and reinterred, with a wooden cross erected to mark his resting place. They then proceeded to the spot where the native had found the body of Utrecht. The spot where the body had been placed by the native was found but the corpse was gone. All about the spot were tracks of 9. huge brown bear, and these were fol- lowed for distance, when shoe and pieces of clothing were found, indi- eating that the bear had taken the body away. AS none of the party was armed, it was deemed best to return to Unga and secure guns before fol- lowing the bear any further, and th1s was done.
 Before the party was ready to start, however, Axel Bendixon came into Unga and reported that he had found where the bear had left the body,

Some time ago The Valdez Miner printed story concerning the drown ing of Charles Anderson and Mike Utrecht at Canoe Bay and the carry ing of of the body of Utrecht by a bear. The story was a remarkable one as told but Deputy Marshal $. O.. Casler, who was then at Unga, and one of the party who went in search of the body of Utrecht, adds num- sber of interesting details which make the story worth repeating.
 According to Mir. Casler early last summer Utrecht. who owned power boat. came over to Unga with bunch of furs and took back with him to Canoe bay, an arm of Pavloff bay, a quantity of supplies for Anderson. Arriving there a storm arose and for the purpose of making his boat secure Utrecht and Anderson put off in a small skiff, but before reaching the larger boat were overturned in the breakers and drowned.

BACK the privilege of life for
the whole human race. Without.
the death and resu' ection OF
Christ nat one of Adams race
would ever have lived again.
We have had it drilled into us
from childhood tt at because or
Adam s tran -gressiOn we were ALI
headed straight toward an end:
less burning hall, and that Christ
came to save a few of us froms
that awful fate. The Bible teaches
nothing of the kind. W. were alb
headed straight toward an end
less death absolute extinction
and Christ came 10 conquer death
and buy back the life that Adam
had forfeited, not for a few, but
for ALL. In that sense, every
human being was redeemed
But after having been redeemed
from ,he first death, 1t now rests
with each person individually as
to whether he will stay redeem
ed or go into the second death.
Adams transgression brought
the first dea-h upon us and we
can't escape it. Nothing butt our
own willful transgression will
bring the second death upon u.s.,
and we CAN escape it. We. have
eternal life and eternal death set
before us, and we must take our
choice. Whichever we choose we
will get it. And just as eternal
life means to be ALIVE through
out endless eternity, just SO eter-
nal death means to be DEAD
throughout endless eternity. The
two conditions are set against
each other in contras t, show ing,
that they are exact opposites.
You can't make death out of life
nor life out of DEATH, no matter
how hard you may try.

THE Immortal SOUL" IDEA.

L
lief among orthodox people thai
the Bible teaches the Immortality
Of the soul. Well. there are a few
isolated texts which, when taken
separately, can be made to con-
vey such an idea; but the whole
connected teaching of the Scrip
lures on the subject is directly the
opposite.
Right in the beginning of the
Bible-in the third chapter of
Genesis-is a clear statement of
fact that ought to settle that
question forever;
"And the Lord God said, Behold,
the man is become as one of us, to
know good and evil; and now, lest he
put forth his hand and take also of
the tree Of life, and eat, and live for
ever; therefore the Lord God sent him
forth from the Garden Of Eden, to
till the ground from whence he was
taken. So he drove out the man, and
He placed at the east of the Garden
of Eden Cherubim, and q flaming
sword which turned every way, to
keep the way Of the tree Of ife,''-
Gen.3:2s-s4.
Here we are plainly shown that
Adam did NOT have eternal life
at the time he sinned and was
driven out Of the Garden. And
furthermore we see that God
took particular care to KEEP
HIM AWAY from the tree of
life, lest he might eat Of it and
IGET eternal life.
If it don't mean that, then |
must confess that | can't under
stand plain English. The only
way in the world that the i'm
mortal soul'' advocates can get
ar ound this text is by Supp sing
that the devil helped Adam to
slip around on the sly and get to
the tree of life anyhow, in spite
of God, the Cherubim and the
flaming sword. And such 8
, thought is worse than ridiculous
it is almost blasphemy.
