STILL ANOTHER STILL
 RAIDED BY OFFICERS
 AND OWNER ARRESTED
Six Gallons of Moonshine Whiskey and a Lot of Mash Found
 In Cabin Along
 Gold Creek

Federal officials yesterday made another raid on still that was operating just back of the Gold creek grocery store in a cabin.
 The still was found working with Morris Tunsgard in charge Six gal Ions of whishey and large quantity of mash and all the outfit that goes with the wniskey making art were captured with the owner
 Tunsgard was taken immediately to the U. s. Commissioner and plead ed guilty of moonshining and was fined $750 and costs. He did not pay the fine and is yet in jail.
 The last still to be raided was found in perhaps the most romantic surroundings of any that have here tofore been captured The setting for the plant are most fitting, re- minding one of the scenery of the moonshine country, of Kentucky. Al the location there was background of green hills and past the door there rushed a swift mountain torrent
 In this case the man is said to be employed in nearby mine.

MUCH SULPHUR
 IN ALASKA IS
 READY TO WORK
Latest Bulletin from the United States Geological Survey Tells About
 Alaska Deposits

WASHINGTON, Sept 27.-Many of the Aleutian Islands, that crescentic line of volcanic isles and islets that stretches westward from Alaska Pen insula toward Asia. bear deposits of sulphur of the type called sol fataras. Sulphur claims have been located at three places on these islands and on the peninsula, one of them in the carter of Makughin Vol cano, on Unalaska Island This peak, which is about coco feet high, is capped by perennial snow and ice and bears glaciers on it's slopes down to points about 2,500 feet above the sea The sulphur deposit is the only part of the crater that is per manently free from snow and ice, heinz kept so by subterranean heat and by the discharge of hot sulphur ous vapor which issues from vents in the rocks with loud roar. In this carter 10000 to 15,000 tons of sulphur may be available for mining
 Another deposit of sulphur is on Akun Island It covers 15 to 20 acres and contains about 1900 tons 10 the acre. Still another is on Stepovak Bay. on the south shore of Alaska ,Penisula.
 "A report on these deposits, by A. G Maddren, has just been published by the United States Geological Survey Department of tho Interior, in a pamphlet entitled Sulphur Deposits and Beach Plaeers of Southwestern Alaska" Bulletin 692-E). an advance chapter of the Surveys annual bulle- tin on the mineral resources of Alaska, 1917.
 Gold PIacers on the Coast of Kodiak
 Island,
 Mir. Maddren examined also the deposits of placer gold in the beach sands on Kodiak Island, where min ing has been carried on for 30 years. and where the value of the annual output of gold has ranged from $3,009 to $10,000. He sketches the geology ofthe island and describes the beach  their mode of origin, as well as the methods used in mining. Here the sea has done for the gold miner the work that is done inland by streams it has assorted and concentrated particles of gold. which were derived from the bluffs that border the beach for miles along the island. The storm surf along this coast is power ful enough to move boulders that weigh tons. and the play of the waves concentrates the fine gold in patches that yield good returns to the miner.
 MT. Maddren's reports can be ob- tained free of charge on application to the Director of the Geological Sur vey at Washington, D. c.

the waters sometimes is washed back,
along with other iotsam and jetsam,
with strawberry jam spread on it two
inches thick.
So brace up! You are not nearly
as miserable as you imagine. 1t might
be worse. If you have broken a leg,
give thanks that 1t was not your neck.
If you had nothing better than corn
bread and liver for dinner, think how
lickin' good it would have tasted to
the thousands of poor wretches in
the battlefield trenches, where blood,
not wine, has been flowing!
Hold your head up and show your
collar-button, even if it is brass; look
every man right square in the eye
and be able to say to him that while
you may owe him dollars OF service
you do not owe him a grudge. There
is a divine spark in you-don't for
get that. And you are just as good
an angel as any man that is not dead.

yada boys who have served in the
war to have their insurance rein
stated, and I am anxious to assist
them in every possible way.
Thanking you for your co-opera-
ton, and with best wishes, | remain.
Sincerely yours.
c. X. EVANS,
Representative-at-Large for Nevada.
When Colonel Lindsey retired from
the office of director of the bureau of
war risk insurance, he asserted that
the former soldiers were allowing
their insurance to lapse at the rate
of billions a week. The statement
seemed almost incredible and was
perhaps generally accepted as a rhe-
torical flourish, used to cmbellish the
colonel's opinion of Secretary Glass.
Now comes the volunteer commit
tee, headed by Charles +. Hughes.
which has been reviewing the work
and considering the problems that
confront the bureau. 1t tells us that
rs per cent of the soldiers insurance
has already been allowed to lapse.
The announcement is staggering. 1t
means that since the armistice was
signed insurance aggregating $50, 000,-
900, 900, or about as much as all the
other life insurance in the United
States has been abandoned.
The soldiers have thus lightly re-
jeeted the only really substantial re-
ward the United States has offered
them in recognition of their services.
This rejection, unless some way may
still be found to remedy its conse-
quences, means that in one of it's two
great objects the scheme of war risk
insurance has failed.
The conceivers of the scheme had
in mind, first, the insurance of the
lives of soldiers during the war; and
second. the creation of a vast new
body of permanent life insurance that
would have a profoundly beneficial
effect on the social and economic life
the nation.
1t would be superf1uous to mention
The good that would result from 4.000.-
300 men carrying more than $40 ,000,-
BOO, 900 of life insurance, most of
which would not otherwise have been
aiken in any form. On the assump-
ton that all the insured soldiers
have elected to convert their
.erm insurance into twenty-payment
their saving, as compared
with non : government insurance,
would have been about 1850 apiece
(the average policy was for more than
$4,000, or a total of $1,440. 900, 900.
In other words. a grateful nation Of
its living soldiers a gift of that
magnitude.
OF course, the 5000, OOO, 900 of life
Insurance that was paid Upon deaths
the war amply justifies the war
risk insurance enterprise. A hundred
thousand families daily bless the fore
sight that thus provided for them
without interminable pension legisla-
lion.
But great as are the fruits thus
realized, vastly greater to the nation
a whole would have been the per-
nanent carrying Of $40.0 O0, 000, 900 of
life insurance with its guarantee of
thrift and protection.
How can the soldiers lost in the
mazes Of civil life be found and per-
suaded to revive their lapsed policies?
The war risk bureau and Congress. to
