ON WAY SOUTH TO MEET WOUNDED SON
 JUST FROM FRANC E

DOUGLAS, Feb 2S.--On the Prin- cess Sophia today bound for Van couyer, was Frank Wilson of White horse. Yukon, who is going out to meet his son, Frank Jr", who is now on his way across the continent, having been invalided home from France, where he was quite serious ly wounded several months ago.
 Young Wilson, who is but 20 years of age, was attending college in Vancouver when the war broke out and for nearly two years after, but being large for his age, and very anxious to enter the service, his parents reluctantly consented to his enlistment, He had been on the front but short time when a burst ing German shell practically stripped one of his arms of it's flesh. After several months in hospital the arm was pronounced incurable and the boy was mustered out and sent back to Canada. His father hopes to bring his son north with him, in which event they will probably be passing this way in about two weeks enroute to WhitehOrSe

SCARCITY OF TEACHERS

DOUGLAS, Feb. 28-A letter re- ceived here by one of the local school teachers from Dean Bolton, of the University of Washington at Seattle, states that a great scarcity of teachers prevails on the outside and indications are that many small schools will have trouble in secuE- ing teachers for next year. A large percentage of male teachers have entered the army and many of the women teachers are arranging to en- ter the employ of the government which pays as good salaries as does the profession of teaching and pays them twelve months in the year whereas teachers are paid but for nine months. The letter from Dean Bolton states that applications are now on file with him for 20 teachers who are urgently needed but that none are available. It is also said that many young married women, former teachers, have gone back to the work on account of their hus- bands having enlisted in the army, but that the demand is still far from being supplied,

MRS. A. T. NELSON CALLED TO REST
 AT SILENT HOUR

DOUGLAS, Feb 2S-Mrs Alex T. Nelson, after more than year Of acute suffering from cancer, passed away at the family home this morn ing at 3:15, just passed into the night with a world weary sigh and without special suffering at the last.
 On the 9th of April Mrs. Nelson underwent an operation for cancer at a Juneau hospital and when able to be out her husband took her to Seattle where she was again treated, but without beneficial results. She remained outside several weeks when her husband, who had returned home. went out and accompanied her back, since which time all that love and medical skill could do proved unvail- ing and she gradually wasted away until this morning when death re- lieved her.
 Mrs Nelson was born in Dundee Scotland, July 26th, 1874 June 9th 1906 she was married to MT Nelson their wedding trip being from the quaint old Scotch town to Douglas, Alaska, where the latter had been fer a few years, where he had a home for his bride and where they have since continuously resided They made one trip back home to the land 0 the heather few years ago. But one child, a girl, blessed their union and she was taken by death between six and seven years ago when but four and a half years of age The mother felt the death of their only child very keenly and her decline practically dated from that time.
 Mrs. Nelson was a noble woman a loving wife and esteemed neigh bor and the news of her death this morning, while not wholly unexpect- ed, created a sense of sadness here Mrs William Livie also a native of Dundee, was with her much of the time during her last days on earth Besides her husband, she leaves a brother, Chas. Gall, and a large cir cle of friends in Douglas to mourn her death and an aged mother two sisters and two brothers back in Scotland.
 The body is in charge of Undertak- CT H. " Sully and, while the funer- al arrangements have not yet been completed, the obsequies will take place Sunday afternoon when, it is probable, the Eastern Star order, of which she was a member, will be in charge. Interment will be in the Douglas cemetery.

BOULDER TUNGSTEN PRODUCTION
COMPANY Is NOW The GREATEST
TUNGSTEN ENTERPRISE WORLD
CLARK PRESIDENT PIONEER COLOSSAL INDUSTRY,


j. G. Clark became associated n
1900 with Sam Conger, whose inves-
LEGATIONS and discoveries of great de-
posits of tungsten in. Boulder county
started the big idea. Mr.. Clark, quick
to grasp situations of future signifi-
cant possibilities, then became the
possessor of as much mineral land
as he could handle. Backed by cour-
age, faith and persevering qualities
that were Joined to his technical abil-
iy and keen foresight, this man en-
tered the wilderness Of. pioneering
with all of its pitfalls, and discour-
aging obstacles and proved that you
can not down the truth" He had
stake" and later fight in the markets
where hundreds of thousands of dol
lare were involved. Since acquiring
his properties in 1900 he became a
tungsten miner" and has never re-
laxed his activities in the tungsten
industry" He held his lodes and de-
veloped them as he could. He sold
the ore when there was a market and
piled it up when there was none. At
times financial responsibilities of only
few hundred dollars in those stren-
uous, rough days, seemed to crush
him, and would have done SO had not
his character and standing with mer-
chants and local bankers enabled him
to pull thru.
We are told that copper has re-
quired a century to find its place in
the industrial world. Zinc took CEN
turies before it became established in
the manufacturing world. With the
knowledge and experience of true
merit and value, Tungsten" came by
leaps and bounds and now has its place
in the metal family. There were no
quotations or established market on
tungsten from 1900 to 1906. Some
sales were made to the Krupps in
Germany and a small amount was
used in manufacturing industries in
the United States
German agencies became eager in
1906 in securing tungsten territory
and several powerful local and for
eign concerns became active in the
district. They created considerable
business in the mines from 1905 to
