Payrolls come in militia circles as

ceived checks from the Federal Gov

Some of the men will be paid as high

RESULT OF INJURIES

Miss Ami" Bishop. aged 80 Of

early Monday morning. following a
collision between an automobile and
train No. III, east bound. at the rail-
road crossing near the eastern end of
the Ticonic bridge in Winslow. short
~ before 80 A. NJ. Monday The
party consisted of Miss HiShOp, her
sister, Miss Cecilc Bishop. Verne Hol-

on a long trip which included Rock

party caught the flare of tie he: d
light Of train NO. TT. They all in
stantly jumped out of the car. The
two mon and Miss CeCilc Bishop were
on one side of the track and Miss An
ME Bishop on the other. The exact
reason will probably never be known
why the victim of the accident
rushed back to the autom obile. one
theory is that She thought her sistc =
was still in the car. the other that
ahc wished to secure her handbag.
At any rate as the pilot Of the To-
comotiNr crashed into the rear of the
car. turning it over and over. Miss
Eishop was cau%nt in the automobile
ana when her still brcat thing body
WAS picked up n minute later. it was
badly bruised and the Cinders of the
track had lccn ground into the flesh
of her arms and limbs, and there was
4 wound on her forehead. Tho Wa
tervillc police station was notified
and officer Louis Eancourt. who Is
acting as night marshal and Officer
Wallace BRAND rushed to the scene
with the automobile patrol.
Miss Bishop was taken to the Sis
tors' hospital and DR.. i. Il. Hurd was
called lie did what he could for the
young woman but she died three
quarters of an hour after arriving at
the hospital. Dr. Hurd gave it as
his opinion that the injury to the
forehead was the cause of death.
The young woman spoke but once
and that was on the way to the hos
pital in the patrol, when she com
planned Of being warm. she having
been covered by a blanket. Relatives
in Pittsfied were notified and the
body was taken to Pittsficld by auto
mobile. The funeral services will be
held from her late home in that

Recent shipments of blue fox skins by fox ranchers of Prince William Sound have totaled about 250 skins, having a value of ap- proximately forty thousand dol lars, while other furs, consisting of mink, marten, wolverine and other skins are valued approxi- mately at fifteen thousand dol lars. These do not include skins sent by parcel post.
 Among the shippers of blue fox skins in the sound district, are Stanier and Van, of Axel Lind Island; J. D. Jefferson of Bald Headed Chris Island; Will liam Beyer and Ostrom and Lilj- gren of the Duh Group; Liljgren and Wagner of Little Naked Island, J. F. R. Appleby of Big Naked Island.

Town May Get
 800 Horsepower From Government

B. F. Heintzleman, logging en- gineer for the Forest Service. and also special representative of the Federal Power Commis- sion, arrived from Juneau on the Victoria.
 It is highly probable that as a result of Mir. Heintzleman's visit an agreement will be reached be- tween the Town of Wrangell, the Federal Power Commission and J. G. Calvin whereby the Town of Wrangell will be able to obtain power at Mill Creek to the extent of 500 horsepower. Mayor J. G. Grant called a special meeting of the Council at which MT. Heintzleman appeared and laid before the Council proposition whereby a permit would be granted to the Town of Wrangell to develop 250 horse power at Mill Creek with the un- derstanding that if a permit is granted any other party for a fuller development of the site the Town of Wrangell agrees to permit the larger permittee to use the water taken by the Town plant and in lieu thereof to SUD- ply the Town with 250 electrical horsepower at rate to be fixed by the Federal Power Commis- sion.
 After hearing the Federal Pow CT Commissions proposition, as outlined by MT. Heintzleman, the Council entered into a discussion of the matter after which it was decided that while the general plan was satisfactory the propo- sition would not be acceptable to the council unless the Commis- sion would agree to permit the Town to develop 800 instead of 250 horsepower. After hearing the arguments advanced by the Council MT. Heintzleman was agreeable to the proposition being amended to include 800 horse power. A copy of the minutes of the meeting at which Mr. Heintzleman appeared has been forwarded to Washington, and it is believed that the Federal Pow CT Commission will approve the plan as amended to include 800 horsepower.
