arthur ConOuer Returns Home.
Arthur Albert Conover, missing sol
der son of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Como
yer, this city, returned to the home of
his parents last Saturday night at 10
o'clock, after living with another sol
der friend at West Philadelphia since
he was discharged from Camp Dix on
August 29th. A few days before Ar
thur returned home his chum left for
his home according to the account.
In the early Saturday morning mail,
after having tried in vain for months
to locate their son, Mr.. and Mrs. Con
over received a letter and photograph
from him from a West Philadelphia
address. In response his sister, Miss
Laura Conover, Miss Edna Conover
and John Conover, her brother, went
to Philadelphia on an early morning
train that day and located him at the
address given. After reconciling with
him the estrangement on his part, re-
sulting from the repeated non-receipt
of letters from home, they induced
him to accompany them home.
He claims to have written letters
home from the other side and from
Camp Merritt, after arriving at New
York, before he was mustered out at
Camp Dix, but they were not received
here.
The case has been a very unusual
one and has caused his parents and
friends great anxiety.

the moose he was looking for. About
this time, thirty inches of snow fell.
1t was too deep for the dogs to travel
through, and it made his hunting more
difficult. Finally, he got on the track
of a cow moose with her calf. These
he followed for four days. He had no
food during this time, and kept him
self going for the ninety-siX hours on
one grain of strychnine, which he di-
vided into twenty-five doses. He was
able to kill the calf first, but found
little food on it. Finally, after an ex-
hausting chase, he got the COW moose,
a big, fat animal.

From then on l pushed ahead as fast
as possible, although l was continually
held up by alternating chinooks and
heavy falls of snow"
Transportation Was Varied.
With the break up of winter, he
went down the Laird river to Fort
Laird by raft.& From there he got a
Hudson's Bay transport scow to Fort
Simpson. Then one of the North West
Trading Company's steamers took him
with others to Fort McMurray. Here
outward-bound men of the north were
c~ongregated, waiting to get shipment
down to Edmonton. A gasoline launch
brought him to Cache "a, then a hand
car and walking carried him further
down the line )of the A. & G. w Next
came an auto speeder, and finally the
train from Lac la Biche.
The northern end of the A. & G. w.
is going to pieces very rapidly, accord
ing to Mr.. Perry. In many places the
track is being undermined by the wat.
er. Bridges have been washed out
The grass is growing feet high along
the entire right of way. In fact, the
passengers" OF the hand car had to
feel their way along the track to make
sure they were not going to run into
a washout.
