COAL MINED
 BY NATLYESAT
 WAINWRIGHT

Coal of the highest grade, inter mittent mining of which has beer going on for thirty years, is found 1T quantities within six miles of Vain wright, according to F. J. Ward, o1 the Bureau of Education, who recent ly made a trip from Nome to that point. The coal is now furnishing the fuel supply to the village of Vain wright where it is sold at 75c sack 20 sacks to the ton, and is coming to be promising industry for the na tives
 The Bureau of Education is direct 1y responsible for the operations Under the supervision of a native co, operative store, the coal is mined by the Indians in the government s charge, and Superintendent Lopp's young Eskimos are learning something of the ways of commerce. The Indians mine the coal, and in sacks which they themselves supply, deliver it to the town, where it finds ready market. This year 5000 sacks of "black dia- monds" have been taken from the mine, 1000 of which were used by the Bureau of Education for it's local school. Point Barrow is also a prof. itable market, and 200 tons were re- gently shipped there on the schooner Holmes.
 Three mines are being operated, most of the coal being taken from the upper strata, veins of which outcrop all along the inlet. As the surface coal is removed, however, the coal becomes of a higher grade, and there is every evidence that with the en- ployment of scientific methods. thie field will become one of the largest producing coal districts on Seward Pc ninsula
 Superintendent Lopp, of the Bureau of Education, has ambious plans for the development of the industry in connection with his native schools. With the recent acquisition of the schooner Boxer, which will be at the disposal of the Bureau in northern waters within a short time, MT. Lopp sees a way of shipping the coal all along the coast, thus. supplying the Boxer with a return cargo from her northern ports, and developing an in- fustry which will be alike great benefit to the coast settlements and to the industrial education of the na-

DOG MOVIE FAN
 WEEPS REAL TEARS

] LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. 13. - Ii being a motion picture fan is only human, then Dodie, Spitz- Malamute 1 is more than an ordinary dog. l Three or four evenings a week 1 Dodie leaves her peaceful home in Sixtyseventh street and goes down , to one of the neighboring cinema the aters, where she climbs into seat and sits until the last of the perform ance is over.
 Managers of the moving picture the. aters have found it necessary to try to keep Dodie away, but if not allowed to enter through the front she usually sneaks in through a side or back en, trance.
 Once seated, Dodie never makes a sound, no matter how long it takes hero to thrash the villain, or how ex- cited the audience may become.
 Thus far Dodie has developed no special taste for actor or actress or type of picture. Rodolph Valentino's osculatory department is no more of an attraction to her than Theodore Roberts, and she goes to the show whether it is "slap stick" comedy, farce or tragedy that is on the pro- gram.
 For three out of five years of her life Dodie has been motion picture fan A former master of Dodie was the first person to introduce her to the motion picture world and the charm of the movies. He used to take her to see pictures frequently.
 Dodie also likes to chew gum and ride in an automobile for hours at a time. Moreover, she cries real tears out of her large brown eyes when they give her puppies away.
