KATHERINE M'DONALD
 LAST TIME TONIGHT
 AT EMPRESS THEATER

The ThunderbOlt," featuring Kath- erine Mcdonald and Thomas Meighan shown last night at the Empress, is strong drama that combines the artis- tic with vivid spectacular moments in a manner effective and convincing. A picture thrilling with suspense, and with the final outcome in the balance until the end, it held the sustained interest of the audience from the very beginning, which was marked by a terrificly realistic thunder storm. The story sounds trite - Thomas Meighan, a young man who has achieved financial power forces the daughter of an old time enemy to marry him. The part of the proud southern beauty who stakes herself to keep her family honor bright, is charmingly played by Miss Mcdonald The marriage is conceived in re venge, but the man failed to reckon on a wOman's wit and pride. How the battle is fought is told in a story far different from the usual melOdrama There's a third man iu the triangle, and strange to say he's neither villain nor fool, but a loyal, honest gentleman, deeply in love with his old southern playmate
 The tale is a complex one. In spite of yourself, your sympathy goes out to all three in the troubled tangle of their lives, and after won dering, through it's length, just how it's going to turn out, when the end does come-you are satisfied.

 They let him out in the spring ot the year and he made his way on two wooden pegs the soldiers fitted to him. He hung around Nome there for two or three years, sell ing papers, and there wasn't any thing anybody would not do for him"
 LIT. Chace is an active member of the Pioneers of Alaska and it was in his office at Nome that the first or ganlzatlon meeting toward the forma- ton of the order was held. He came to Alaska in 1896 as a surgeon for the old Alaska Commercial Company. being stationed first at St. Michaels: went to Dawson in 1897 and down the rlVer to Beaver creek, below Fort GlDbon on the Panama in the fall of 1853; fished and hunted there through the winter nd in March, 1900 went to Nome. It was then a city of 10000 population and live community.
 Dr Chase practiced in Nome till l9lS, when, in the fall of that year, he went out on the Victoria. The victoria had six to seven hundred passengers aboard and throughout the journey there were never less than fifty sick with the flu" on any one day.
 There was only one other physi- clan aboard, the ships surgeon, Dr. Craven, and together they handled the epidemic, so well that only five deaths resulted four of these from Spanish influenza and one from some other sickness contracted be- fore the patient had come aboard. Dr. Chace worked night and day without stopping even to change clothing until they arrived at Seat tie. Here every ambulance in the city awaited them and forty were taken to the hospitals.
 pr. Chase returned to Alaska in February, 1919, and had charge of various hospitals at Cordova, Chi chagof and Juneau before coming to ketchikan last year. He has a 12-yearold son, who, with Mrs. Chace is at present at Juneau.-Emery T. Tobin in Ketchikan Chronicle.

CHACE TELLS WINTER TRAIL
 EXPERIENCES

What are some of the difficulties of the trail ill Alaskan" l sought Dr. W. Darcy Chace for an answer. Dr. Chace has been in Alaska nearly 25 years, has crossed many mile of trail in search of gold or to al. leviate the suffering of some sick prospector or native
 ITO illustrate" he said, "I might tell you about one short trip we made from Candle to Squirrel river on the Kobuk, in January, 1911. To- gether with an Eskimo driver and dog team and man named Paul Xavier with another team, I was headed for the gold strike on the Kobuk.
 we made two starts from Can die, but when we had gone about five to ten miles it showed so heav- fly that we had to turn back and rest two or three days between StaTIS. It SIOTmeu leaTIully.
 "The third time we got to a point about twenty miles out, where we should have crossed a bay The snow was drifting so badly that we could not see the leaders of the team ahead of us though we were driving only ten dogs. It was not cold, but the driving snow prevented us from seeing where we were going.
 ,"At this point along the trail there were small spruces and willows set as stakes at distances of 50 to 100 feet apart, but they were of no help, for we could not distinguish them in the storm.
 At 2:30 o'clock we decided to make camp for tue night, hoping that by morning the storm would lift enough so that we might see to go ahead or go back, so we parked the sleds and turned into our sleeping bags. We had no fire, so had eaten only a cold lunch. In the morning we hit for Kevalik, rested two days, and then made the fourth start.
 "This time we made a road house we had been looking for. When we arrived here we found We had been given up for lost and that a search

RENAL PENINSULA HAS
 ABUNDANCE OF MOOSE

Moose abound in the Kusiloff dis trict on the Kenai peninsula, accord ing to Andrew Berg, game warden of the region, in report just made to Governor Riggs. Berg reports that during the month of February no vio- lations of the game laws came under his notice, although the liquor traf- fife seems to be in full bloom. for he states that he saw Tots of men drunk, mostly white men"
 As many as 20 moose were seen in one day, some coming quite close to the cabins to feed off the birch tops that are cut for fire wood in that sec tion of the territory
 In one Indian village a moose had been killed, but upon inspection of their food supply the game warden saw that they needed the meat.
 Berg found one bull moose dead from lung trouble, presumably in fluenza.
 HhoIhGl LiooSe, lhIee-y yedI-Old COW, had ventured out upon the ice while the cover of snow was melting. A sudden cold snap came along and froze the ice, rendering it too slick" for the slippery hooks of the cow She was forced to remain on the ice and would presumably have died of starvation had not Berg came to her rescue, loaded her on his sled and hauled her ashore.

ing party was being organized on Squirrel river for us. A native had started from the roadhouse the day before in order to get up the party We made Squirrel river and found the party already organized and ready to go out in search of us.
 Aside from getting lost altogether, the greatest danger to the man on the trail is from getting hands or feet frozen. Then he is helpless. These he must take the greatest care in protecting
 When on the trail from Ft. Gibbon to Nome in January 1900, about a days run from Beaver creek we picked up man with both hands and feet frozen. We knew that a man had started out before us pulling his own sled, and could see by his tracks that he was not very far ahead, It was fifty and sixty below every day.
 "The man, whose name was Frank O'Connor or Connor, was making it alone. He didn't seem to be able to follow the trail for every little while we came to places where he had gone off into the deep snow. He had tried to make a camp fire, but did not appear to have much success. In several places, along side of pile of dry drift wood, we found evidence of his unsuccessful efforts.
 AS we were crossing the Yukon river, Frank Wickery, who was driv, ing the sled, stopped and said: Come over here
 "Dr. T. B. Craig, our other com. panion and I came over and Wickery said, Hear that?
 "Yes."
 While they started off for where and put on some beans and coffee They found the man rolled in his robe almost buried under the snow, and brought him over.
 We took turn about sitting up with O'Connor, feeding him small quantities at short intervals. In the morning we decided to take our small sled and dog team and haul the man back to Ft. Gibbon to the military hospital.
 We reachel the old Station an Indian camp, the first night Shortly after our arrival, Corbusier the government mail carrier on that route came in. He loaned us two dogs to help out and travelled with us the next day. We made for the fort, where we had O'Connor admit ted to the hospital. The surgeon found it necessary to amputate both
