 IS FROZEN ON
 TELLER TRAIL

NOME, March 9.-W. o. Marx, Unit ed States Commissioner stationed at Teller was found frozen to death on an unstaked trail between Teller and Shismareff on February 27th, it has just been learned here. Marx and companion named Reed, who were travelling from Teller, were caught in heavy storm, and became separated. Reed managed to reach Teller safely, where he organized a searching party and went back to find Marx. The body of the Commissioner was discov- cred about twenty-five miles from Tel Ter. It is presumed that having found Reed missing Marx had gone back over his own tracks toward Teller. There were evidences that he had fallen over a high precipice, but he had evidently continued for several miles on his journey before finally being overcome with the cold and ex- haustion. Tied about the waist of the dead man was a new pair of sealskin trousers, and a mitten was gone from one of his hands. Marx leaves a widow and two children.

BOY KILLS GRANDFATHER
 FOR HIDDEN TREASURE

BERLIN, March 9. The most shocking murder in a long series of outrageous killings that are reported to the police daily has occurred in the little village of Seifersdorf, near Leig- nitz, where Karl Kuehn, IF, is await ing trial on a charge of having mur- dered his 73-year-old grandfather, Rob- ert Klempner.
 According to the police young Kuehn strangled the old man as the latter lay asleep, and taking 65,000 marks which were hidden in the bed room, made off to a local dance hall, where he spent half of it before he was arrested.
 Violence growing out of robbery is now of daily occurrence in Berlin, to say nothing of the rest of Germany. Only a murder is given any sort of prominence. Ordinary blackjackings are hardly mentioned. Space in the is scarce and needed for other things.

TWO BASKET BALL
 GAMES FOR TONIGHT

Tonight two games of basket ball will be played, Finkelstein & Sapiro vs. Railroad and High School vs Elks.
 The Railroad and Finkelstein & Sa- piro teams are meeting for their third and last game together in the series. The Railroad has taken the two pre- vious games, and as this will be the store mems last chance to beat the Railroaders, the intense rivalry that has existed between these two lives is expected to reach it's highest point.
 The High School boys anticipate one of their hardest games of the series tonight when they clash with the Elks. The Elks, with their new lineup, have made a strong showing in their last games and have proved themselves a formidable aggregation although still the tail-ender in the league.
 The fans can therefore look for ward to two fast, interesting games to- night. The first game will start at 7:3O o'clock.

HOLDINGS OF OLD-TlMER
 SOLD BY ADMINISTRATOR

When John Lutschinger of Nome died with the flu his mine holdings were considered the most extensive of any one man in the Nome Mining District. Many of the claims lie in the richest pay belt of Nome and are considered valuable mining prop erty.
 The administrator of the estate, Wm. Webb, sold these claims to the bidder pursuant to Probate Court order dated October 12th, 1920.
 The claims involved in the public sale numbered thirty-four, besides which two ditch systems known as the Lutschinger and Iowa ditches, were included. Of the thirty-four claims sold Lutschinger owned out right the majority of them, while in few he merely held an equality. Six of the claims were patched and several others were in the stage of being patented.
 Attorney James Frawley offered $12,O0O0 for the properties and that being the highest and best bid the auctioneer declared the properties sold.

from the shell. The holes in this
wire were too small for a whole pea
nut meat to come through, but were
plenty big enough for even as big a
bill as that Of Sammy Jay to pass
through easily. But as I said before,
they were not big enough to take a
whole peanut meat through.
He fastened\this little rack up on
nut meats and then watched. Sammy
Jay was the first one there. That
was to be expected. Sammy looked
the shelf over for peanuts and looked
very much disappointed when he
found none Then he spied the pea
nuts in the little rack. He eyed that
rack suspiciously for a moment or
two. Then he walked over to it and
tried to pull out a peanut He couldn't

hammered at it After two or three
was able to pick out the pieces. They
were not big enough to be worth
taking away to hide. so he ate them.
The same thing happened with the
next peanut. No matter how he
worked and tried Sammy could not
get them out whole. He kept at it
until he had eaten all he wanted.
Then he few away to think the mat
ter over.
No sooner had Sammy Jay gone
than Yank Yank the Nuthatch took
his place. Yank Yank did just as
Sammy Jay had done. He hammered
at those peanuts until he had broken
them into pieces which he could get
out. When he had eaten all he could

peanuts were no longer being wasted.
BY keeping that little rack filled with
peanut meats there would always be
a supply for his feathered friends,
and none would have to go hungry
through the greed Of another. More
over, they had to work for what they
got, aud this was good for them. It
Is always well to have to work for
things.
So 1t was that Sammy Jay and Yank
Yank the Nuthatch formed the habit
of visiting that shelf every day, turn
and turn about. Happy Jack and
Chatterer the Red Squirrel used TO
sit down below and look up envious-
ly. There was no way by which they
could reach that shelf Occasionally
Farmer Browns Boy would toss a
few hickory nuts and peanuts on the
ground for them. Thus he managed
to keep his feathered friends and his
little friends in fur in comfort dur
Ing the bad weather without giving
either chance to cheat the others
You see If Happy Jack and Chat
terer could have reached that shelf
they would have been quite as pig
gish as Sammy Jay had been, and
would have driven away all the
feathered folk. 1t is queer how the
more some people have the more
they want. Those who have the least
