men through Inquiries OF some mem
bers of the group. which he said
did the firing.
The shootings, he said. occurred
In August 1918.
The two men were intoxicated
Miller said and before the shooting
took place were "beat up" by some
Of the soldiers. The "beatlng
sohered them" Miller told tho corn
mittee and both admitted the ac-
cusations made against them by the
French women, both OF whom were
more than so years old, according
to the witness.

Replying to questions, Miller said
that while he knew II was his duty
to report the incident TO his com
mandlng officer. he assumed the
captain who participated in tho ar
fair would do so.

FROST KEEPS GRIP ON GOLD
PIaeers in Alaska That Are Only
Thawed to a Depth of About
Three Feet In Summer.

Certain Alaska gold placers lie In
ground that is permanently frozen. only
the surface being thawed to a depth of
tive or three feet in the heart of sum-
mer. In this respect they resemble
the goid-bearing gravels of Siberia. and
the methods Of working are similar.
Summer is the best time to prospect
for new leads, but excavation of the
gravel from shafts and tunnels can be
as well carried on in winter. The
ground at the end of shaft is soft
ened by a fire of wood and then attacked
with the pick. But. instead Of break
ing under the blows, 1t mats together,
and this tendency renders gunpowder
and dynamite comparatively ineffective
In dealing with the frozen mass. With
any less powerful incentive than the
CLEAN Of gold to spur on his human
the frost king would doubt
less win an easy victory in so desper-
ate a conflict.
