BEER FLOWS JOYOUSLY
 DOWN JUNEAU HILLSIDE

JUNEAU, April 12.-The contents of 4,S00 bottles, home brewed beer and otherwise, is soaking into the soil near the federal jail having been de- stroyed under the supervision of United States Marshal J. M. Tanner. Men from the federal jail packed the cases of the intoxicating stuff to tn, top of the high cliff on Federal hill and Deputy A. E. Lucy and Jailer Frank Bach either opened the bottles and poured the stuff out or smashed the bottles. Some of the home brewed stuff had a regular mule kick, ex- ploding in Fourth of July spirit. Lucy received a badly cut hand when one bottle after being shaken, just went all to pieces,
 Quite a gathering of men formed eon top of the cliff while others watched the amber fluid going into the soil from positions on Willough, by avenue The beer was seized dur. ing the past several months from various places.

HICKMAN AGAIN TOUR INTERIOR
 DURING SEASON

JUNEAU, April 12 (by Associated PTess) ).-To renew old aCquaintances among the members of the legisla- ture, many of whom he served with in former sessions, and out of inter- est in matters of legislation, former Senator J. R. Heckman of Ketchikan, arrived in Juneau on the steamer Jefferson. He is accompanied by Mrs. Heckman.
 MT Hickman, who recently re- turned from an extended visit in ably surprised to find conditions at Ketchikan better than had been re- ported. There is considerable ac- tivity in the fresh fish industry there, he said, a large number of halibut fishermen operating from there as headquarters and selling their catches Suspension of the fish canning opera tions in the Ketchikan district this season, he said, was almost complete. He estimated but two or three plants would operate and those only in a limited manner, utilizing only the cans which were left over from last year.
 In response to query relative to the Britt fishery bill recently in troduced in the territorial senate for territorial control of the fisheries of Alaska, MT. Heckman stated that he had received a copy of the measure and considered it fundamentally sound. The principle of the measure and its purpose, he said, are cor rect. In his opinion he stated, some minor amendments will be necessary in order to make it a satisfactory measure, but in the main the pro visions of the proposed law are such as to be equitable to everyone con cerned and for the best interests of the territory as a whole.
 MT. and Mrs Hickman will remain in Juneau possibly for three weeks, returning then to their home in Ket- chikan. Early this summer they plan now to make another trip into interior Alaska going to Anchorage and over the Broad Pass by the way of the government railroad to Nenana, visiting Nenana and Fair banks and then out by the way of the Richardson Highway to either Valdez or Cordova. MT. and Mrs. Hickman toured the interior dis tricts in the summer of 1919 but did not include the Anchorage and rail road region

SURVEY WORK IS IMPORTANT
 10 ALASkANS

JUNEAU, April 12.-The work of the survey ship Explorer, now in the harbor, is exciting much interest among shipping men. The Explorer is the mother ship of the survey fleet, the special mission of which is to complete the examination by wire drag of the main steamship routes in southeartern Alaska. Until this is done there is no guarantee that the charts will show all the ex- isting dangers, or that there will be of submerged rocks named after vessels which ran upon them.
 During the approaching season the field of work of the Explorer and her launches will be in Stephens passage, Gastineau channel and Lynn canal. More than usual interest is attached to the operations of this vessel and her survey party as new methods will be used which are ex- pected will greatly expedite the work
 The wire drag was first employed by the coast and geodetic survey on the Atlantic coast. Along that coast the currents are moderate and there are large shoal areas where rocks and lodges projecting a few feet only above the bottom are dangerous 'obstructions, slow moving and some what complicated apparatus was best suited to these conditions.
 In Alaskan waters such shoal areas are comparatively infrequent, and deep water with swift current is characteristic. It is in this deep water that some of the most danger ous pinnacle rocks have been found The precision of the Atlantic type of drag is an unnecessary feature in this locality and it's slow movement limits or destroys it's efficiency in swift and irregular currents.
 Much experimental work was car ried on last year with a view to meet IIltSt GUIulIlOuS, dllu uIdS mas been designed of greater strength and few CT parts, which is capable of being lowed through the water at two or three times the speed possible by the old form.
 If the new design comes up to ex- pectations, indicating that a correct balance has been found between a drag of light construction liable to be crushed and broken by the water pressure at high speed, and strong but cumbersome construction which prevents high speed and quick handling, this combination of light ness and strength should enable the party to make progress far beyond that hitherto accomplished in Alaska. The test is awaited with interest by shipping men and officers of the coast and geodetic survey.
