S|TKA SPRINGS SPLENDID PLACE
 IT IS CLAIMED
Dr. F. L. Goddard Is Con- ducting Popular Resort
 Druggist Says.

To really get a rest and to enjoy a vacation in Alaska at it's best. the Sitka Hot Springs, near Sitka is the ideal place, according to H. Van der Leest of the Butler Mauro Drug Company of this city who with Mrs. Van der Leest and two children has recently returned from there.
 The sanitarium operated by Br. F. L.. Goddard at the Sitka Hot Springs is certainly an ideal place. It is almost on the Pacific Ocean and is situated among picturesque surroundings" MT. Van der Leest said today, "the atmosphere of the done for the comforts of the guests and the rates are certainly reason able" he continued.
 Fishing for black bass, trolling for king salmon and boat trips to various points of interest, make the days pass peacefully and pleasantly. There are eight baths where the hot mineral spring water is on tap and the buildings themselves are heated by the water.
 According to Mr Van der Leest the boat trip of two hours from Sitka on the E. D. M. is a pie turesque one. Late in the season there will be plenty of hunting for deer and birds he says and the whole locality is a hunters paradise.
 Quite number of1visitors, from all parts of Alaska, have visited the springs this season, MT. Van der Leest said and there have been from five to 25 guests there at all times During the two weeks that he was from the guests for the treatment that they had received

If the B. c. government actually took the pa tornal interest in the welfare of prospectors that it pretends to take it would build a trail up to the property so that the boys could pack their ore out With good pack trail they could largely in crease their tonnage, as it would not then be necessary to sort down to such high grade product. a
 While Dr. McKechnie of Vancou- yer. who owns an interest in the Pa tricia group on Marmot River, was on the property last week H. c. Ma gee the locator of the claims, dis covered a new lead of high grade most important leads of the group. The surface shows six feet of gale na, samples of which assayed $133 per ton. MT. Magee has been driv- ing new tunnel on another lead this summer, and at a lateral depth of 20 feet the ore assays S48 gold, $6.61 silver and s33S lead, total of $8831 which, considering the ac- possibility of the property, is good shipping ore. Dr. McKechnie, who returned south, is enthused with the property and authorized a more ex- tensive development program The work previously outlined will con- tinue through the summer with an increased force and tunnel con- tract to last all winter will be let in the fall

Greeted upon their arrival at Bene-
dict, Md, By committee of the lead
ing citizens of that municipality the
Columbian Players yesterday put in

objective, and the ride DER the hills

tinual sequence throughout the Gay,
The real pastime of the day conferred
around the aquatic joys of the mem
bers of THE Columbian Million Dollar
Chorus" who in fitting and beautiful
bathing suits plainly displayed their
keen appreciation Of the pleasures
that were afforded by refreshing salt
water bathing. A wonderful country
feed in the large dining hall of Hotel
Messick was a veritable banquet, and
following this as the concluding fea-
ture of the days program the party
all joined in motor boat rides around
the inlet of the bay in the vicinity Of
Benedict. The party returned home
last evening, shortly before 10 &c ock.
The Columbian Players Friday
night elected the following to head the
organization for the coming year:

Motor FUELS Quality Higher
and Price Lower Sur
vey Shows.
SUPPLY IS AMPLE
Consumption Increasing But Produc-
ton Also Gaining-St0cks On
Hand Greater.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Further
comfort is afforded the automobile,
motorboat and farm tractor owner, as
well as automotive industry in gen
eral, by the Bureau of Mines of the
Department of the Interior, which
announces, following its fourth
semi-annual survey Of the American
gasoline supply, that there IS not
only vast surplus of this product
in the country, but the quality has
improved and the price is uniformly
lower.
A few weeks ago the Geological
Survey, of the same department of
tie Government, made public a state
msnt showing that recently develop
ed processes for extracting gasoline
had tanished all fer of gasoline
famine in this country, but that
agency did not go into the question
of prices or the quality of the supply
now on the market.
1t appears from the surrey just
completed that the average price Of
eaoline in nine consuming districts Of
the country, the central points of
which are New York, Washington,
Pittsburgh, Chicago, New Orleans, st.
Louis. Denver, Salt Lake City and
San Francisco, dropped from 2S.2
cents in July, 1920, to 2l.2 cents IN
July, 1921, difference of Z cents a
gallon.
In the Observation-Disclosures Rich
mond district, motorists paid an aver
age of 2S.5 cents a gallon for gaso-
line in July Of this year, Indifference
of 6.5 cents a gallon. This product
sold as high as 31.5 in Salt Lake City
a year ago and is selling rs low as
17..l cents gallon in st. louis now,
a difference of II cents gallon com
pairing the highest with the lowest
markets for the two years.
In spite of this drop in price, the
bureau points out the quality OF gaso-
line today is much better than 1t was
last summer. In fact, the average
gasoline on the market at the present
time is almost identical in quality
with the average sold last winter.
Consumption of gasoline continues
to increase heavily in the United
States, the report shows. But produc-
ton is increasing even more rapidly
