NOTED LECTURER IS HERE;
GATHERING DATA ON NORTH


1.-THE Newman Traveltalks". Mr.. E.
NJ. Newman, one of the nations
foremost lecturers, arrived in Ne
mana on the steamer Yukon, ac-
companied by Mrs. Newman, for
the express purpose of gathering in
formation relating to the territory,
its mineral resources, scenic attrac-
tions and general conditions, con-
corning which very little is known
in the States, particularly in the
East, where Mr.. Newman does most
of his lecturing.
| Mr.. Newman has come to Alaska
at the request of the late Franklin
X. Lane and of Secretary of the
Interior Albert B. Fall, and also be
cause many of those who attend
the Newman Traveltalks have ex-
pressed desire to hear about
Alaska. Mr.. Newman has been en-
gagged in lecturing for 10 years
and his following is a very large
one, covering a big part of the
United States. And, in addition, his
lectures are published by many of
the leading newspapers of the
country, so that what he says about
Alaska, will receive the widest pos
sible publicity.
Mr.. Newman had intended to visit
Iceland this summer, but he was
prevailed upon to come to Alaska
| instead, and he is here with a photo
grapher and a keen desire to know
all there is to be learned about the
Northland. Both still and moving
pictures are used in connection
with the lectures.
Mr.. Newman says that it is the
intention of Secretar Fall, of the
Interior department. and Secretary
DENLY, of the navy department, to
visit Alaska this summer, and he
thinks it probable that they will be
accompanied either by Congress
ional delegation, or by party of
experts selected by the senate and
house territorial committees. They
are scheduled to leave the East on
July Ia, on battleship, and should
reach Seward sometime in August,
the intention being to made few
stops on the Pacific coast, after
passing through Panama canal.
The cabinet officers, Mr.. Newman
says, will come to Interior Alaska
by way Of the Government railroad,
and may continue on across country
to the Yukon river, with view to
extending the railroad to Rampant
or some other point on the Yukon.
Mr.. Newman says that both Presi-
dent Harding and Secretary Fall
are genuinely interested in Alaska
and that they will do everything
possible to solve the problem of
Alaskan development without delay.
! Secretary Fall was selected as head
of the Interior department, Mr..
Newman believes, because of his
familiarity with frontier problems,
particularly with a view to the in
auguration of a sound development
| policy in Alaska.
Mr.. Newman accompanied the
Roosevelt South American expedi-
ton, and he has travelled in almost
every other part of the world. He
was attached to the Government
publicity bureau during the war,
and directed the taking of moving
pictures in France and Belgium and
elsewhere in the war zone. He was
| in tho thick of sovno nf tho hoox-y
fighting and so close to the firing
lines that he was gassed on one
occasion.
| Mr.. and Mrs. Newman will go to
Fairbanks tomorrow, and out to
the coast by way of the Richardson
trail. They will visit number of

severely injured Tuesday night while
at work in trap in their side cut.
A large piece of frozen sand and
gravel, which had been thrown up
by a shot some time previous to the
accident, thawed sufficiently during
the night to give it start down
the hill into the cut, and it landed
squarely on the two men, crushing
both of them. They were placed on
improvised stretchers and relayed to
the end of steel, sixteen men taking
turns carrying the heavy burdens
over the rough road from the scene
of the accident. They were sent to
town by train yesterday, for treat
ment at the base hospital.

EXTRACT JAZZ MUSIC OUT OF
 JAP RIDDLES

WASHINGTON, March 22 Cby As- sociated Press).-Jazz music in this country is being extracted from Jap. anese made fiddles. A report from Consul Hawley, at Nagoya, Japan, says a quarter of a million dollars worth of Japanese fiddles were bought by the United States in 1919, this country taking the great bulk of the product of this new industry, built up in Japan since the world war broke up Germany's business.
 Three factories in Nagoya produce ail the violins made in Japan. They were founded by Masakicki Suzuki who made his first fiddle, Consul Hawley says, in 1888 using as a model "a foreign instrument brought to Nagoya as a curiosity" The en- terprise had a total product of musi- cal instruments in 1914 valued at $24,419 but had spread out to three factories employing HOO people in 1919 when the output reached $539,- 40 of which $39S,491 went in export, the United States taking 6SA9er cent. The first six months of 1920 saw the plants develop a business aggregat' ing $304,143.
 Germany's former place as fiddle maker at large to the world has been captured, the consul indicates.

SURVIVOR OF ARCTIC TRIP
 HAS RETIRED

SAN JOSE, Cal, March 22 (by As sOciated Press) Maurice Connell one of the seven almost dead, ema. ciated men Commander Winfield Scott Schley found when he went 60 the relief of Lieutenant A. w. Greely's Arctic expedition in 1883, re, tired recently after serving the gov ernment 51 years as soldier, explorer and scientist.
 Feeble health, result of his ex- periences in the frozen north, neces- sitated MT. Councils retirement it was said. Since 1905, as an off eial of the department of agriculture, he has been weather observer here.
 Besides MT. Connell, there are alive today only two other men who lived through the grim story of the Greedy expedition, which, has been described as one of the greatest tragedies of the Arctic. One of the survivors is Greedy himself, now a major general who recently wrote Mr. Cornell from Washington, D. c. expressing his distress at learning of the latter's illness.
 There were 25 men in the Greedy party, which set out in 1881 to es- tablish an international polar sta tion, according to MT. Connen The expedition was the first and last ever undertaken directly by the United States government
 The party reached what was then farthest north, S3 degress, A min utes, discovered new land north of Greenland and crossed Grinnell Land to the great Polar sea. Then came the tragedy. The expedition failed to meet the relief ship Proteus, which had been crushed in the ice, and was forced to take refuge near bleak Cape Sabine, where twenty-seven per }shed of starvation and cold. When Commander Schley found the surviv- Ors they had been forty-two hours without food
 Connell unconscious when found, was for the moment ill the worst condition of all. The rescuers at first thought him dead. For three days he lay unconscious and when re- vived aboard the relief ship he be- Gieved himself in another world.
 When I was weighed three weeks after the rescue I weighed 1O2 pounds my normal weight was at that time about 175 pounds" MT. Connell said recently in telling of his ex- perienCes.
 Before going north, Cornell for ten years served in the army in the west. He fought Apaches in Texas and Arizona. Sioux in Ne hrsaka, served under General Cook, famous Indian fighter and was one of the few survivors of the Battle of Little Big Horn, in which General Custer lost his life.
 For his work in the service, Con- gress placed MT. Connell on the re- tired list of the army in 1901.
