 Speaking of the Government rail road and the expected development of the Territory it will bring when completed. Judge Bunnell said: Tt will be the greatest boon to the Yukon Valley since the gfd strike and the Klondike rush. Che time sayed will lengthen the traffic oper- ating season thirty-siX days, lower freight rates and make possible all year transportation that will enable merchants to keep their stocks up and offer lower prices. This will allow many low grade digeings. Tourist travel, when the all rail route to Fairbanks is completed also should be a great help.
 Judge Bunnell is trying to reach Fairbanks before February A in time for the next regular court term.

STUDENTS HEAR
 TALK GIVEN BY
 REV. GEO. BRUCE
Relates the Important Things Seen on His Recent
 Visit in California.

Rev. George G. Bruce gave mos interesting talk to J. H. s. students last Friday morning. He was hailed with delight by all, for Rev. Bruce is very popular with high schoo students. He recently returneJ from the South and while below saw many interesting things there of which he related 10 the students l He said: Los Angeles is beautiful city, but I like Alaska better"
 Then Rev Bruce told of an archi tect friend of his whom he had known since he was three or four years old, but who now is directing the erection of huge building in Los Angeles. which was to be used as a movie" theatre, the largest of it's kind in the world. It is to cost $2.500 000 Thirteen stories are to be erected on a span which will be l32 feet long, 19 feet high and with 10 girders to support 1t.
 The second thing Rev Bruce spoke about was the wonderful waterworhs S of Los Angeles. Before this system was installed the people had pumpe the water from the river but it was impure and meanwhile the city grew and the supply could not meet the demand Engineers were sent oCt to find better water supply. After considerable search they found a lake 250 miles from Dos Angeles The question was how to get the water to the city. After much plan ming the engineers decided to build concrete ditches over hills and down through valleys for 250 miles. They had to make tunnels through the mountain sides but here the great them although cut through solid rock and the engineers had to think of some other method to carry the water This time they constructed huge pipe large enough for an automobile to pass through and now the city of Lo Angeles is said to have the best water in the world.
 The third thing was about the huge battleship under construction at Mare Island in San Francisco Bay. It is called the California and is to be the flagship of the Pacific Fleet. It is 630 feet long, g. foot beam, and draws 32 feet of water. There is to be an admiral 5 staff of 125 officers and 1,500 sailor bays as a crew. The craft is en- tirely covered by armor 14 inches thick and the whole ship is operated by electricity, which is generated by three turbines 10 feet high. It takes three days to inspect the ship for everything is in compartment by itself with cOmpanionways con meeting. The battleship is painted white and one would think it would be difficult to keep it clean and neat but there is no dust and dirt to gather while on the sea. This mag nificent battleship is to be completed sometime betwen next Jnly and Sep tember.
