Moran acquired a copper prop
erty near Shungnak. He was later
ond division to the second Alaska as
sembly, and also held the office of
United States commissioner in the
Kobuk precinct for eight years. His
mining partner was B. B. Dobbs,
whom he met in Nome.
Moran was friend of Jack London

with whom he made many hikes over
Alaskan SHOWS. He also knew Frank
Carpenter, the serial story writer
who came to the Alaskan for local
color on many occasions.
Had Many Escapes.
The Alaskan has many unforget-
table experiences during his sojourn
in the far north. One was a 600-mile
hike from Shungnak to Nome, where
he arrived the day before election.
Another was the time when ne was a
passenger on the gasoline schooner,
Nome with thirteen men and after be-
ing storm-tossed for twelve days,
finally reached San Point after she
had been given up for lost.
Hunting walrus was an occupation
of Moran's part of the time. On one
occasion he and his men killed $50
of the Big sea mammals. The hides
sold for $500 each. the tusks for $55
each. There is now law protecting
the walrus from the hunter.

AMAZE BERLINERS
Cannot Understand Ads in
American Magazines.
No One Would Have to Adver-
tise Ham in HunIand.

Berlin, May 27.-Germans marvel
at American magazines, especially at
the advertisements. A writer in a
Berlin paper tells of -feasting his eyes
on the pictures Of food in a popular
American weekly.
who has to advertise ham in order
to get rid of 1t in Germany" he
facetiously asks. But the unfortu-
nate American who has a ham TO sell
money, a whole page in a magazine
and, at another terrible price, hire an
artist to paint a picture of his ham,"
The writer rhapsodizes over that
picture. however. He tells his read
ers what the ham looked like:
"A cross section. White layers of
fat. Salmon pink flesh. with streaks
of fat like the rays of the sun
1t amazed him to find that, in adj
ditfon to the picture. the owner of the
ham finally has to sing its praises
in sweet words"
"How we pity" he exelaims, 1.-The
American who possesses ham"
Turning over the pages, the writer
came upon an advertisement of rub
Der soles. Evidently he thought they
were used for the purpose the Ger
mans make of their ''sole-sparers."
Don't imagine" he goes on, that
these American sole-sparers are the
ron. Not a bit of it. They-are made
of rubber!"
An idea of how scarce and dear
rubber is in Germany may be gath
cred from the writer's statement that
the cost of these American sole
sparers, commuted in our yaluta,
would be as great as that of a trip
in a railway train from Berlin to
Hamburg, with one day in a hotel
besides"
