NEW POWERSITE
 AT TAKATz BAY
Located by Engineer Dort on Recent Trip to Warm
 Springs Bay District.

The discovery of a hitherto unliSt- cd powersite on Baranof Island in the Warm Springs Bay district was announced today by the U. S. Forest Service. The site was reported sometime ago to the Service and was definitely located recently by En- gineer J. c. Dort, who Is making a reconnaissance of possible power lo- cations in Southeastern Alaska this summer.
 The new power site is located on TakatZ Bay about eight miles from Warm Springs Bay The source is in a lake situated at the head of a creek not named on any map, which flows into Takatz Bay. The lake lies back in the mountains and has an elevation of approximately 500 feet. It covers an area of between 800 and 500 acres. On the creek which 1t feeds are several falls, one of which is between 50 and 60 feet wide at the top and has an almost perrendicular drop of 100 feet
 MT. Dort said that the site could be developed into a producer of about 5000 horsepower on a very economic basis 1t could also be used as a unit with Warm Springs Bay and Cascade Bay sites. the com bined horsepower of which would reach approximately 10000. The timber in this district . is said by Forest Service officials to be ex- cellent and this, together with the power possibilities, is reported to make it very desirable locality for the development of the pulp in dustry.

CANNERIES PACKING
 SALMON; RUN GOOD

There is every indication of a good run eff salmon this season and the canneries in this vicinity have al ready put up several thousand cases of various brands, according to a number of cannerymen who are in Juneau today on business.
 The Deep Sea Salmon Company cannery at Port Althorp has put up 14,000 cases already. according to Au- gust Buschman, who is in town. The pack exceeds that of last year at this time, MT.

 Travelling Light
 Prest is travelling light, the most of his equipment being a motion pie ture camera and two still cameras. At Dawson he will supply himself with mosquito netting and for the rest he trusts to his natural good luck. When he started last year from Mexico, he carried light camp ing outfit fishing tackle and a gun.

 Retlcent when speaking of his work, it was not until several al buns, which he carries with him, were seen, the many accomplish ments of PreSt in the science of avi- ation were learned Aside from be- ing one of the foremost aviators of the present time, Prest is an in ventor and designer of planes. He designed a plane known to be the smallest in the world, and which from wing tip to wing tip measures the width of three men with arms out stretched.
 Unable to take active part in the World War because of injuries re ccived while flying. Prest devoted his lime to teaching aviation in the camps in the United States.
 The past several years have been devoted to flights over. untraveled courses. Prest owns three planes.
 Thane Landing Field Good
 Prest was well pleased with the landing field below Thane as a per manent field. With the Hume re moved and the ground leveled he said Vt will be an excellent field to bt used by planes. A plane will bt able to land regardless of the direc Zion of the wind, he said.
 Should he return this way Prest will arrive here in about six weeks.

AxEL H0LMQU|ST SHOOTS THREE;
 KILLS BROTHER
Fred Holmquist Is Dead Former Wife and Little Son
 m Serious Condition.

Axel Holmquist shot and killed hls brother, Fred, and seriously wounded his divorced wife and 4-year-old son on the night of July 3 at Butte. Montana, according to word received here. It is not yet known today whether Mrs. Holmquist and her son stin live. Constant Ibrooding over trouble with his wife and a weakened physical condition, from tuberculosis, from which he has been suffering long time, are given as the reason for the shooting. The Holmquists are well known in Juneau, having lived here several years.
 Domestic Tragedy
 lAll of the persons implicated were principals in a domestic triangle here in 1920, which was carried to the U. s. District Court for solution by Judge Robert w Jennings. The woman, at that time the wife of Axel Hclmqufst, filed suit for di- vorce charging her husband with eruelties and with being a man of violent and ungovernable temper, in sanely jealous disposition and of seeking to curtail all her friend ships and acquaintances.
 The husband filled a cross com plaint accusing his wife of infideity and naming his brother Fred as CO., respondent. He also alleged that any action of ill-temper against his wife by himself were the result solely of prov ocation on her part. He claimed to be of a nervous temperament.
 On August 20, 1920. Judge Jennings ordered a decree of absolute divorce entered, giving the wife custody of the child and awarding her alimony The decree was later amended giving the husband permission to visit the child Holmquist refused to pay the alimony at first and was adjudged in contempt of court and an execu- tion levied on him for the payments due. which was satisfied.
 Alter the divorce action had been sCerled, Axel Holmquist was arrested by Deputy Marshal N. o. Hardy for threatening to shoot his wife, child and (brother Fred, and himself He was said to have brooded over the matter and allowed it to continually prey on his mind. He was put under peace bonds.
 Marres Brother
 Mrs. Holmquist and her little son left Juneau about a year ago. Axel Holmquist left about three months ago and Fred Holmquist left about a month ago, having been at Chicha gof several months. It is understood Mrs. Holmquist and Fred Holmquist were married recently and were mak ing their home in Butte.
