HERMIT MINER LIKELY DEAD
 IN MOUNTAINS
Has Adhered to a Belief That Some Day He Would Make Big
 Strike.

VISALIA, Calf, March 19.-Hope that w. o. (BilD Slough, a hermit miner of the Sierras who for a quar- ter of century has spent an av- craze of nine months each year in the highest Sierras east of this city, would be found alive has been aban- doned. It is generally believed among those familiar with these high attitudes that the aged man has per
 shed in the snows or met with an accident which has ended his dream of 25 years that he would some day relocate his lost mine"
 Slough, we'll past 70 years of age. went into the hills early last spring, as was his custom after a couple of months in the valley, to renew his search. During the summer months he worked steadily sinking his small hope shaft" deeper into one of the big veins that are numer- ous in the Mineral King region that lies under the shadow, almost of Mount Whitney. Late in the fall when tourists left Mineral King, he sent out word that he would come to the lowlands about the first of De- cember as usual. No word has come through him or of him since that time.
 Each winter before coming out, Slough undertook the duty of clos ing the headgates on Monarch, Eliza beth and Lady Franklin Lakes which feed the Mount Whitney & Electric Company's big hydro-electric ditch lines. Mount Whitney employees | discovered that one of these head gates had been closed, but the oth- CTS apparently are still open and it is believed the aged hermit perished
 in attempting to make the two day | trip around the lakes.

At least seven hunHed people attended the second annual Metla- katla-H a-Hydaburg- school fair at Hdyaburg, March to 8 inclu- sive Intense enthusiasm prevailed throughout the entire session, which closed in blaze of triumph for the Native people of Southeastern Alas ka. Patriotism was the dominant spirit Public improvements, good fellowship, awakened conscience and unity through competition among the lasting results obtained Experienced educators were amazed at the results of years progress in school and community life. Ma tive leaders were honestly outspo- ken in criticism of their instruc- tors when one delegation fell be- hind another in matters of world knowledge and excellence of train ing.

 Important Meeting.
 "This is the most important meet. ing ever attended" said Rev. Edw Marsden during one of his stirring addresses. "At home I have beer led to believe that I am big man Nobody contradicted me. Here they challenge what I say and accept nothing but proven facts. I have been compelled to change my opin. ions several times during the past two days"
 As usual, MT. Marsden was ont of the moving spirits of the fair iron the moment of his arrival, in speech argument and music.
 "He had but one rival in instru mental music" declared District Su perintendent Hawkesworth in an in terview today, "and that was Georg, Demmert, of Klawock. The i'm promptu selections of these two mer took the vast audience by storm. never say Marsden so forceful, SC logical, so brimming with tactfu language. The man was inspired.
