MIR. HAZELET IMPROVING

Encouraging reports of the con- tinued improvement of MT. George c. Hazelet, who was operated on in New York City last Sunday for acute appendicitis, have been re- ceived by his family. That MT, Hazelet has passed the danger point in his illness and gives every prom ise of a progressive recovery is the substance of messages received from his son, Craig Hazelet, of Chicago, who hastened to New York on news of Mr. Hazelet's attack. Owing to the serious nature of his condition at the time of the operation, it may be a month, however, before he is able to leave the hospital. Mr. Fal- con Joslin, MT. Hazelet's associate in the management of the Chilcat Oil Company, at Katalla, is on his way from Seattle to New York.

Jim Gaien and Bobby Sheldon to Put on Auto Line to Handle
 Tourist Travel

The future success of the Richard son Highway received a business-like standing when Robert E. Sheldon of Fairbanks the other day started out tation men as to what could be done this Summer and from now on to make the Highway nationally known and travelled.
 Travelling first to Anchorage, Robbie was met there by the Steamship rep resentatives and James Galen. the Cordova transportation man. They travelled from there by steamboat along the coast and threshed out the Highway travel from every standpoint. The steamship companies are able and willing to give the Highway all the travellers who can be rightly accom- lnodated thereon, and with the under standing they had with the steamship companies MT. Galen and MT. Sheldon made arrangements for a proper ser vice over the Highway this Summer, agreeing to handle properly all travel sent them and of which they were given notice in advance.
 Reservations have already been made for more than 200 tourists to Fairbanks in June and July-how many of them will go over the High way is not as yet known, but they will all come to Fairbanks.-News Miner

Some Danger in Combination of Potash
Tablets and Potassium
Chlorate.

At a merry party in England, one of
the guests suddenly found himself
emitting shower of sparks. The
place Of origin was his coat pocket.
Everybody laughed, and thought it
was a well-contrived joke. But it was
not. That was proved by a burned
jacket, chair, carpet, and hand. In
vestigation showed that the guest had
in his pocket a packet of potash tab
lets. Also he had there box of
safety matches.
Now safety match is coated with
potassium chlOrate, and it strikes when
it is rubbed against phosphorus paint
ed on the box surface. But potash tab
lets are made of potassium chlorate,
and so they, too, are likely to strike on
safety matchbox. This Is what they
had done. Some of them had escaped
from. their packet and were loose. in
the jacket pocket, ready to make a
fireworks display if they rubbed against
the matchbox If you carry a safety
matchbox, be careful what else, you
carry in the same pocket. Mind it is
not potash tablets for sore throat,
or you may "go Off unawares in pri-
vate fireworks display.
