WEARE. MUST Be
DECLARED DEAD FOR
THE Second 1IME|
Court Of Appeals Trying to Unravel
Mlxup In Fleming County Es.
tate - JANA Weare
Missing.

Frankfort, KY, Oct. 20. - Few in
stances, II any, have ever come to the
attention Of the Court Of Appeals In
which such total disregard of money
Is exhibited as In the case OF Jaffa
Weare who, knowing that he had in
herited $4,03469 with interest from
1909, has made no claim for his estate.
Weare was one Of seven heirs to the
estate Of Jared Weare, his brother,
who died in Fleming county in 1909.
The other heirs are Jerome, Jacub,
Jahaza, Jaakin, Jacova and Jaza.
The record in the case disclosed
that Jaffa Weare left his home in
Fleming county in 1882. He was legal
ly declared dead, but was located in
the spring of 1911, when his brother
Jacub Weare, by accident, learned
that he was at Malvern, Ark, and
went to that city to inform him of the
legacy. Jaffa Weare stated that he
would probably come to Flemingsburg
that fall to get the money.
From that time to the present moth
ing has been heard of him. In the
meantime his sister Jacova Weare, has
died, leaving him an additional sum
of $2,459.24. The case came to the
Court of Appeals today to determine
what shall be done with the money,
inasmuch as some of the heirs claim
he is still living and that the. estate
cannot be divided until he is legally
declared dead again.
The Appellate Court says that in or
Ter to divide the money due Jaffa
Weare, from his sister, Jacova's, es-
tate he must be legally declared dead
gain. He will probably be the only
nan ever legally declared dead twice

ALASKA BOOK
 PUBLISHED BY
 NOTED WRITER

N. s. Whittier, of Juneau, has re ceived an autographed copy of Char lotte Cameron's book, "A Chechakc in Alaska and Yukon" the result oi her summer spent in the north ir 1919. Mrs. Cameron is said to be the widest travelled woman in the world She has been in all of the out-of-the. way by-paths as we'll as the main tray. eled roads of the world, and written books of travel on the four corners of the world She has had conferred upon her the Order of the British Elm pire, for services rendered her coun. try and is Fellow of the Royal Geo. Graphical Society of London. Her Alaska book is one of the best that has been written of the north.
 gn the preface of her book Mrs. Cameron declares that she had pas sion for geography as child, and in the "rosy days of my youth, Nome away off at the end of Alaska-pos- sessed a peculiar fascination for me-" However, she had travelled in other sections first, and the knowledge that she had gained in South Africa, in- cluding the German African colinies. made her services in demand at her London home during the war. It was in this servince that she earned the Order of the British Empire. With the war over, she sailed for America, and in the summer of 1919 she left California for Alaska and the fascinat- ing Nome.
 The book takes the reader from Seattle through Southeastern Alaska, stopping at various towns, including Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, over the White Pass to Carcross and Atlin, thence back to Carcross, White. horse and down the Yukon to Daw. son. All these towns are accurately portrayed, and many interesting stor- ies of their scenic, industrial and commercial activities, their history and their people are related with if delity to truth and the spirit of the north. From Dawson, she takes her reader on down the Yukon to Panama and up the Panama to Fairbanks. Thence back to the Yukon and again down that waterway to St. Michael and thence to Nome. She pays tri. bate to many well known Alaskans including Gov. and Mrs. Riggs, whom she visited at Juneau, Senator and Mrs. J. R. Hickman with whom she travelled down the Yukon to Tanana and with whom she caught up again

at Nome, MT and Mrs. Jafet Linde berg, Mir. Whittier and others. MT Whittier was a fellow passenger from Vancouver to Juneau
 The book is interesting from cover to cover and true to conditions There is an incredibly small number of errors in the book, which is in narrative form, but which branches off enough to give a very accurate treatise on the resources, activities and history of Alaska and Yukon Territory. Time and again the au- thor pays tribute to the "great, gen. erous people of the North,' their uni form kindness, chivalry, bravery and patriotism. She appeals to the gov ernments of the United States and Canada to aid in the development of the country that the resources might yield their riches to mankind and re- ward the adventurous and persever- ing pioneers of the land for their eff forts in claiming it for civilization. Accurate pictures of the natives of the north and human interest stories concerning people and events, enliven and make intensely interesting the very fine volume.
 If the book secures the circulation that it very well merits it will add immensely to knowledge of Alaska and Yukon.

ONE LINE SAID TO owe U. 5.
SHIP BOARD 100000

NEW YORK, July 2T.-Shipping
Board officials refused today to deny
or confirm a report that the board is
preparing to take over every vessel
on which the Government is owed
money, as a result of the stir raised
by seizure of the nine ships of the
United States Mail Steamship Com
pany. Shipping men discredit the
rumor on the ground that such pro-
cedure would bring unending COM
plications for the government as wei
as for scores of private ship owners.
E. A. Quarles, assistant to the
President of the United States Mail
Line, Is authority for the statement
that his company last Saturday Of
fered to deposit in escrow with the
Shipping Board the 100000 charter
hire the board claims is over due. and
that the board refused the PROPOSE
ton. Mr.. Quarles said the offer was
contingent on the boards willingness
to modify it's contract with the COM
pany and to release voluntarily the
seized vessels pending settlement OF
the controversy.
In a deposition re made In the In
junction suit, Timothy f. Byrnes.
general counsel for the Mail Com
pany, charged that Mr.. Harriman's
United American Lines sought 70
gain control of the Mail Company
and that he believed its failure to do
so was a reason for the seizure OF
the vessels and the turning of them
over by the board officers to the Har-
riman Company.
