APPEAL TAKEN FROM RULINGS
 ON OIL LEASES

Appeals have been filed by Attorney w. H. Rager of Anchorage, for Joe Mailloux and Dora Mailloux in the Juneau U. S. land office from the de- cision of Register Frank A. Boyle re- jecting applications made by the ap- pellants for oil leasing permits. MT. Boyle's decision was based on the rul- ings of Secretary John Barton Payns to the effect that no applicant is en- titled to more than one permit to land located in the same structural area
 In his notice of appeal, Attorney Rager' declared that the decision of the register is arbitrary and in eff feet nullifies the law. He appeals on the ground that the rejection is con trary to the law for the reason that the act (February 25. 19O2). section 13, specifically gives to any qualified applicant in the territory of Alaska five prospecting permits He further alleges that the decision is contrary
  to paragraph 10, subsection (a) of regulations concerning oil permits and leases of the general land office Circular Mo- 672 wherein a person is authorized to hold five permits at one time in the territory He claims also that it is contrary to law in that it places the burden of proving whether or not the claims are on the same geological structure on the locator, whereas, he claims, there are no proven structures in Alaska and in the absence of prospecting and eX- ploration there is no evidence to show that any two claims in the locality in which those in question are located are on the same geological structure.
 This is the second appeal taken from rejections for the above cause. If the decision of the register is up held by the commissioner of the gen 1. eral land office, the cases, it is un- derstood. will be taken to the secre- tary of the interior and possibly into the courts.

kOYUkUk OLD-TlMER
 MISSING SEVERAL WEEKS

Oscar Johnson, we'll known old timer of the Koyukuk, has been miss ing for several weeks and it is feared by the residents of that district that he lost his way in the hills and per ished, says the Nenana News. Sev eral parties are reported to have been organized for the purpose of looking for him but all returned without suc- cess, beyond finding the tracks of the missing man and one of his camps. The tracks indicated that Johnson travelled in a circle during part of his wanderings and convinced his friends that he was completely confused. He became lost while on a hunting ex- petition to Gold creek. He had dog with him, but the dog is also missing.
 The first news of Johnson's dis appearance was brought to Nenana by Nellie Cashman and further news was brought in by Theo McNamee, who has just arrived from that dis trict. He says that hope of finding Johnson alive had been abandoned at the time he left the diggings.

DUKE OF ABRUZZI
REMAINS AT HOME
Arctic Exploration and Polar
Bear Hunting Has no AL
lurements for Italian.

ROME. May Arctic explora-
ton and shooting the savage polar
bear. have no aliurement at present
for the Duke Of the Abruzzi. who Is
now engaged in the equally scien-
tifc IL less hazardous task Of in
vestigating the commercial and agri-
cultural possibilities OF the Benadir
Colony, East Africa, with a view TO
making IL a source OF income for
Italy, and even eventually OF rem
dering that country independent OF
other nations for her supplies OF
cotton and cereals.
The duke, in addition intends TO
explore the sources of the Cebi
Scebel river which, rising in the
high plateau Of Hanar. towards
Abyssinia, passes through the Italian
colonies TO the sea. and, il is be
lieved, can easily be rendered navig-
able for small boats, besides being
invaluable as "A source OF irrigation
for the extensive agricultural enter
prises which the duke hopes TO mi
tiate in Bensdir.
The first news has Just arrived Of
the expedition which started last
December from Mogadiscio. An
made OF the winds. the climate and
the rainfall Of the country. Engin-
eer Agostinelli. who is accompany
ing the expedition and who has done
considerable work on the rivers and
canals OF the Lower Piave, considers
that IL will be paratively easy 20
utilize the waters of the Uebi Scebel
for a system OF canals, TO irrigate
that part OF the colony which now
suffers from drought which will
more than quadruple its productive
power.
Farms Established.
The Duke of the AbruZzi. with the
experts who have accompanied him,
are setting up two big experimental
/ farms where IL will be demonstrated
what immense harvests OF cotton,
dourra, sugar and coffee can be OBJ
tanned in this country through irri-
cation, a system Of intensive culture
and the use OF modern agricultural
machines.
The ex-German cargo boat, now
called the Carlo Pisacane. which
brought news of the expedition. also
carried a large shipment Of dourra
| from the colony. a grain which re-
sembles maize and can be used, to-
gether with the ordinary flour for
bread. II has also been proved that
! the breeding Of cattle in Benadir
can be greatly increased so that sup
plies can be sent to Italy of meat
and hides.
All this work is being done, it is
announced. entirely at the expense
OF the duke, who desires that Italy's
colonies should be developed and
I hopes that similar work may be
started in Lydia and Cyrenaica.
