FOUR LOSE WAY
 IN DEAD CRATER
 ON LONELY ISLE

HONOLULU.-Lost for four days in the immense crater of Haleakala on the Island of Maui, the largest extinct volcano in the world. a party of four Honolulu school teachers, Henry Abell, Hazel Abell, Edns Lockridge and Elizabeth Appleton, have at last reached the sea and safety at Keanae, Maui, after ter rible hardships.
 That the three young women and their companion escaped death in the almost impenetrabie jungles through which they cut their way for miles is considered remarkable They were completely exhausted when they reeled into the settle ment at Keane.
 The crater of Haleakala has an elevation of 10,032 feet and an area within the towering rim of sixteen and one-third square miles. At one point it is twenty miles from rim to rim. The floor of the crater is veritable wilderness.
 Re fusing the services of guide the party entered the crater with food for only one day and with little water. On this they sustained life during the four days they fought their way to the sea. Going into the crater they planned to come out through the Kaupo gap, a well known trail, but became lost when heavy clouds obscured all landmarks
 The intense cold of the high altitude added to their sufferings during the nights they were lost, as they had no blankets. Much of the time they were without water and after the first day they had no food but berries and fruit.
 They eventually got out of the crater through the Keanae cut and from there struggled to the coast through the jungle Old residents declare this trip has been made only once before, and then by an ex- perienced mountaineer.

NENANA IS BEST TOWN IN ALASKA
 AYERS OlDTIMER

Frank Sagar, well know oldtimer in the country, arrived in Nenana this week from an extended trip to various camps and settlements in Interior Alaska and the coast, and definitely states that Nenana i is the best of them all in every possible way
 Mir, Sagar left Nenana on the first of June bound for the Kuskokwim country making the camp there by way of Holy Cross and the portage He remained in the Kuskokwim for about week and from there went on to Dime creek in the Kuskokwim Bay region, but none of these places looked good to him. There was very little doing in the mining busi- ness and there was practically no business of any other kind.
 After spending about two weeks in this region, he visited the Willow creek diggings in the Marshal dis trict and thence went on to St. Michael and Nome. At the Marshal district he worked about week for Waskey. Things are said be very quiet in Marshal and there is very little doing in the mining game. Waskey was taking out little pay, and R. Cockburn (Jew Bob) was also said to be doing fairly we'll and was employing a few men. Ike Mitcham was on Jew Bob's payroll when he was identified and re- arrested.
 At St. Michael, on his way to Nome, he was held up for ten days awaiting the coming of a boat, and he says the cost of living in St. Michael is fierce.
 Conditions were much the same at Nome and the exodus being poss- ibly greater. It was not possible to buy steerage ticket out of Nome, as every available berth in all classes had been taken up. The Roman Catholic chuch and hospital at Nome have been closed owing to the exodus and two of the patients, with the nursing sisters were sent up to Fair banks.
 On his return to Nenana, which Frank says is unquestionably the best town in Alaska, he stopped at Ruby and Tanana for a short while. The same quiet prevailed there too, men were going away and business was slack. There were quite a few people at Panama from lower Yukon settlements waiting for a boat to go Outside.
 It is estimated that the popula- tion of the camps and settlements on the lower Yukon will be sadly depleted. It is estimated that there will be only about 12 or 15 in the Marshal diggings, and from 20 to 30 in the town of Ruby, the rest of the camps will also suffer con- siderably.
 All those who go out, with the exception of the draftees, expect to return later in the winter or early next summer.

The trading schooner Sea Wolf recently returned from Siberia from a trading trip. The vessel reached as far north as Kaulchin Bay. The trip was very successful from a trading point. The vessel encount- cred considerable difficulty with ice and bent one of her propeller blades, forcing repairs to be made at Teller. The greatest difficulty experienced on the trip was to secure trading licenses from the grating Russian officials. The captain was compelled to take out two licenses before he could clear, one for the government and one for the officials. One cost 115 rubles and the other 26

The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1918-07-13

Pleasure seekers in the hinter-
land have encountered no Huns
so far this summer, but they are
humping into all kinds of wild
animal life.
A couple of weeks ago DR..
Bettenhausen was driving home
on the Pike Lake road in his
Dodge machine. A cow moose,
grazing by the roadside, noting
the bright headlights: thought the
doctor was trying to take an x
ray snapshot of her person.
Jumping across the roadway with
a wild snort, her ladyship failed
to dodge the Dodge car and
landed right on the radiator
with her shapely head through
the windshield.
Jolt, jar and flying glass i'm
PEELED DR.. Bettenhausen to stop
his car. Madam Moose was
dragged from the machine and,
although her neck seemed to be
broken, her throat was cut 50 as
to quickly end any pain and mis-
cry.
That was the first time q lady
moose ever tried to sit in DR..
Bettenhausen's lap, and, while it
might be a pleasing experience
for chief McKercher, the doctor
feels more than satisfied with the
one experience, especially while
driving a car.
At about tn; same time that
DR.. Bettenhausen was adventur-
ing with the lady moose, Ransom
Metcalfe, editor Of the Steel
Plant News, was automobiling
with his family through the wilds
Of Lake county. A short distance
