NOTED SCIENTIST FINDS RARE MOUNTAIN SHEEP
 IN SIBERIA


 Rrins srecinehs-sf an eaSeedmgiy rare type of mountain sheep, to ob- tai nwh:ch he made the long journey from the states to Nome and Siberia w. B. Burnham, noted scientist president of the American Game Pro tective Association and member of the United States Biological Survey returned Tuesday from the Siberian Coast on the schooner Trader ac- companied by his guide Andy Tav- Tor of Mccarthy. Alaska.
 Mir. Burnham arrived from the Outside on the first trip of the Vie toria and spent more than two months on the Russian coast in se- curing the desired specimens, which are said to be known to exist no where on the globe save in the noun tainous regions of Northeast Siberia. On arriving at Emma Harbor MT. Burnham encountered some difficult ties with the Russian authorities over his credentials and Leo P Harris. member Of his party. was forced to return to Nome to secure additional certificates before MT Burnham was permitted to resume his quest Harris, after securing and forwarding the papers, returned 10 [ from Emma Harbor during his stay and obtained several pelts and horns of the rare animals he sought, which will he shipped to the States for mounting
 MT. Burnham and Mr. Taylor left Nome for Emma Harbor June 26 The object of the trip was to secure specimens of the little known noun tain sheep of the Chukotsk Penin. sula. They were successful in secur- ing half a dozen specimens Of the sheep and also brought back some wolf trophies. They hunted thru most of the mountainous section of the south side of the peninsula from Providence Bay to Holy Cross Bay
 In speaking of the trip Mir Burn ham said "It has long been an in teresting scientific question as to just how the sheep of the Chukotsk Pen insula should be classed. It was known that they existed in limited numbers. but no museum in the world had any specimens. It is en- tirely possible that this sheep may porve to be new variety.''
 The Chukotsk sheep are as dark as caribou, being in this respect very different from the white sheep of AL aska. The Kamchatkan mountain sheep are dark colored. but there appears to be some important diff ferences between them and tho Chukotsk animals Less is known about the Chukotsk sheep than any other variety in the entire range of the species from Western Asia to Mexico. Scientists believe that the mountain sheep originate in the and that the species cross a1 into .f,srth America when .hera

FINE MINERAL EXHIBIT
 SENT TO CHICAGO

As a result Of the efforts of the committee appointed by governor Riggs to undertake the task of col lecting an exhibit of the mineral forms found in this section for dis play at the American Mining Congress exhibition in Chicago, there was for warded on the last trip of the Vic toria a varied collection of samples of ores and mineral bearing sands which will form the main feature of the local contribution to the territor- ial display. The shipment compris- ed ten sacks of mineralized sands of various character. two boxes and one barrel of rock samples of numerous types. Th. former melud'd sands from the famous Ihira Beach line. the present beach line, famed as the "Golden Beach of NoIne". and the Submarine beach deposits. The pur- pose involved in sending the large amount of sand is to permit those who desire to actually pan quantity in Chicago and see it's contents for themselves. The sands from the present beach were collected and donated by Otto Halla after duly as pertaining the values contained.
 The sands from the Third Beach were donated by the Pioneer Mining Company to the Nome Chamber of Commerce and are said to have con- tained considerable gold. The Sub marine sands were presented by Fred Mebes and also were of considerable value.
 The main portion of the ore sam pies were the result Of collecting eff forts made by Miss Alma Dukes cov- ering a long period of time and rep resented almost every mineralized probably the most complete collec- tion of the minerals of this section extant. The balance of the shipment was composed of ores form various parts of the peninsula and included samples from almost every known mine or prospect in the district. Tho committee was also successful in se- curing several oil samples to display the potential oil resources of the division. The display weighed slightly more than one ton. In for warding the shipment the Nome Lighterage and Commercial Company and the Alaska Steamship Company very kindly donated the lighterage and transportation charges involved. Owing to the small-amount of money available for the purpose. Governor Bone recently informed A. Polet. head of the committee. that he would appreciate it greatly if this division would bear the costs of assembling its exhibit because of the high cost of installing the territorial display at Chicago requiring most of the money appropriated by the iegisla- ture.

The Daiichi Toro Maru a big three masted power schooner with wierless has spent the summer on the coast in the inter- ests of Japanese commercial com pany which has secured the mining rights in this district it is said from General Smionotf now in power at Nladivostok Aboard the TOro Maru are seven or eight Russian mining engineers under the eadership of MT John A Korsokeen and about thirty Jap miners besides the crew The Russians are fine set of men and very able in their profession. These men have made at least one important discovery of placer gold at Assun, east of Cape Aggen. or Achchen as it is printed on the American charts.
 They have been followed by the Odoro Maru which apparently off cially represents the Japanese gov ernment as the crew of the vessel is uniformed The Odoro Maru carries q complete scientific staff including fisheries experts. geologists and bot anists. They are studying every possible utilization of the resources tific fact in connection with the Odoro Maru is that while al Emma Harbor the Japs made a complete topographic survey Of the bay The charts already show the sound;nes and shore line. everything needed for the commercial navigation. They do not. however show the elevations and positions of the mountain be- tween the bay and the sea. facts which are of importance if the bay is to be fortified or used as a naval base. It is hard to conceive why they should be getting this informa- tion unless they have designs on the place of a military nature.
 ''Emma Harbor is the best harbor on the Asiatic coast north of Petro- pavlOsk. It is large enough to float the navies of the world and ideally protected. The largest ships can en- ter or leave at any time they can be on the high seas A twenty knot cruiser could reach Nome in half a. day form this base.
 ''In the coming conference of the Powers over the question Of disarm- ament I trust the United States will secure from Japan thorough un- derstanding on the Emma Harbor question and their design in north eastern Siberia.'
