PROVISIONS PLENTIFUL
 IN KOYUKUK SECTION

There is a plentiful supply of staple provisions in the Koyukuk district this winter and considerable work is in progress on the creeks, according to Ike Spinks, manager of the store at Bettles, who is on his way to the states on combined business and health seeking trip. It is true, he says, that the steamer Teddy H. was unable to reach the last season and that the cargo was discharged at Alatna. But the cargo consisted chiefly of perishables so that the camp is really not suffering in consequence of the non-deliVery of the supplies, as earlier reports re- ceived in Nenana would seem to in dicate It is the intention of Trader English and associates tC move the perishables up the river over the ice later in the winter.
 Spinks not only declares that there are plenty of staples in the camp but also quotes prices, which he points out are not indicatives of shortages Pillsbury flour is selling at s14 per hundredweight, Drifted Snow at $125O, rolled oats at SIPS per sack of ten pounds, cornmeal the same, butter $50 per can, sugar $17 per hundredweight and rice S16.
 There is considerable work in progress this winter on Nolan Creek MT. Spinks says. The second bed rock has been abandoned and pros pecting is being done now on seV- eral claims on the upper strata Of bed rock. which is found at depth of about 60 feet
 Shortly before the trader started for Nenana Jim Kelly, Jack DoWd and w. R. Ethesington arrived from the headwaters of the Bettles River with a poke of dust weighing about $SOO and returned to their discovery almost immediately, with supplies for further work The strike cre- ated a little excitement in the old diggings and considerable stalking has been done. Oldtimers put lot of faith in the find and are looking forward to further good reports be- fore spring.

Federal prohibition Commissioner
Roy Al. Haynes said today he
would continue to ''be sphinx" as
regards the liquor situation In New
York State, consequent upon the re-
peal OF the State enforcement code.
Reports that e. G. YellOwley, chief
OF general agents, had led a. force
OF 500 dry sleuths to New York
city to supplant the State officers
In graduating the bootleg traffic,
found substantial denial today In
the presence Of Yell0wley at the
Washington office.
The Federal prohibition unit will
have nothing to say or do on the
New York question until q course
OF action Is indicated from the
White House, Commissioners Haynes
intimated.
As the significance Of the repeal
OF New York's dry code is nation
wide, It Is probable the matter win
be taken up at q meeting Of the
cabinet and that Commissioners
Haynes win be given orders as to
procedure.
ut was learned today that II II be
found necessary to send many ad:

/, Working "a Hours a Day.
Nv TnternasIonal News Service.


SPOKANE, June ga short time
ago international News Service pub
lished story telling how Jacob B.
Alley, local inventor, had solved the
problem Of getting twenty-four hours
work, out OF day. Alley said that
when a problem presented itself dur
ing the day he simply gave it to his
brain as he went to sleep. His brain
worked out the solution and gave
It to him next morning. Several Of
his Inventions, he claimed, were
evolved I'm this manner.
Since the stories were published
Alley has been receiving requests
from inventors in all parts Of the
country asking him to solve vari-
Gus mechanical problems in connec-
ton with their invention. To many
Of these he has replied, telling Of
the solutions as they came to him.
The manufacturer Of weil-knOWn
soft drink In looking for a vending
machine capable Of delivering iced
bottles Of the beverage to customers.
Alley gave this problem to his non
stop brain one night, he says. The
solution next morning was that he
adapt a patent voting machine, Of
his invention to the vending job.
Itssaerned foolish. but he tried It. 1t

Now he's negotiating for the sales
