VALDEZ BOATMAN HAS
 CLOSE CALL FROM DEATH

Ralph Winter, a weIl-known boat man and trapper, who has been win tering at Port Wells, had a narrow escape from death recently when 8 varicose vein in his leg burst, and for two weeks he lay in his lonely cabin unattended and without surgical ap- pliances. Finally, when he had re- covered his strength sufficiently, MT. Winter sharpened up his pocketknife and drained the vein of stagnant blood, and managing to reach his boat, started the motor, and shortly there after became unconscious. For sev- eral days he drifted about in blinding snow squalls, finally making Culross island, where the only remedy he could find was some cold cream one of the ladies used as a toilet preparation.
 From Culross he went to Ellamar and thence to Valdez.
 Mr. Winter is a Spanish war veteran and has been in this district a num- Der of years.
