ra He won lot of races, but was drowned at Le Pas, Man, while train ing for dog race.
 Old timers will recall Sweet Marie, the Dutch Kid, the Oregon Mare, the Utah Filley, the Dawson Nightingale, and lot more of the Six Cylinder bunch. There was also Short and Dirty, Pop-Eye, the Silk Stocking Kid, the Sombrero Girl, Ivory Pete, Manas- sas Sue, and Shirttail Tommy.
 Then there was the Outlaw Swede, named not because he was an outlaw, but because he. bragged of knowing Jesse James and the Younger Boys. Billy the Horse was another well known old timer. Billy got his name while freighting on the KOyukuk, and the natives gave him the name be- cause he used a horse on his polling boat.
 There was Porcupine Pete, Jimmy the Bear, Caribou St. Clair, Moose Anderson, and Bull Council; all nam- ed after animals by their friends.
 There was Long Shorty, the only man in the world who knew how to properly dry king salmon. Long Shor- ty has gone to his reward, but the ia vored few who used to take the bilek along for a trail lunch never forgot him or the secret that passed with him.
 Dopey Dick, who prayed the piano for the Florodora dance hall, Danny brock Dan, a rollicking Irishman who could dance your money out of your pocket; Manure Mike, who used to clean the stables to get fertilizer for his vegetables; Limpy Jane, who was man; Sentimental Sam, who spent all he made on the dance hall girls, and a score of others, all of whom came by their nicknames by some noticeable peculiarity.
 And Popcorn Jimm:e, named for the reason that he always had bowl o1 popcorn on the end of the mahogany because it reminded him of back home" Pop is gone, but when his name is recalled, many an Alaskan will treat themselves to a reminiscent smile.-EXchange

MANY NORTHERNERS KNOWN BY OTHER
 THAN OWN NAMES

Now that Alaska has shed the days of dance halls and settled down to a prosaic and staid civilization, with elevators, marble railways and every thing, it is no longer fashionable to give people nicknames. Old timers readily recall these in use short time ago.
 There was Posthole Pete who got his name by an incident in Montana. He was set at work digging postholes when Montana was big range coun- try, and the owner told Pete to gc ahead until he returned. The owner forgot all about Pete until he happen ed by and found a man still digging postoholes straight across the state.
 There were Whiskey Dick, The Gamblers Ghost, The Rampant Spi- der King Oscar, The Big Chief, The Big Swede, Hootalinka Dan, and the Sweet Pea Girl, Coal Oil Johnnie, the A. o. Kid. c. $. Louie, and the Sev- enty Mile Kid, big ski jumper, who got his name from the Seventy Mile river. It was Seventy Mile who tolled the late Archdeacon Stuck to the top of Mt. Mckinley.
 There was the Malamute Kid, a
 dog musher and a good one; the Step and a Half Kld,-- he had
 
 limp; the Tatlanike Kid, named aft CT the river by that name; the In and Out Kid. the Yellow Kid, the Two-bit Kid, the Ping Pong Kid, named be- cause the brought in a ping pong out fit; the Going Kid, a son of Frank Goyne, who won his name on account of the fact that he could make a dog team do anything but sing grand ope-

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 25.-The largest body of fir timber ever put on the market by the government, 685,- 000,000 board feet, 90 per cent of which is Douglas fir, was offered for sale today by the department of az riculture forest service.
 This timber, located on the north fork of the Willamette river in the Cascade National forest, Oregon, is the first unit to be offered in this ter ritory, which contains four and one- half billion feet of merchantable tim Der. It is planned to offer other units of the timber, it was said, at such a rate and under such conditions that a mill can be maintained there perma nently.
 There are about 100000 acres GOV cred with Douglas fir of varying ages in this watershed and it is estimated that if cutting progresses at the rate of one thousand acres year the tim Der of the unit now offered for sale will be 100 years old at the end of the rotation and ripe for second cut.

NEW AIRPLANE sTAB|L|zER
 MAKES FLYINC SAFE

LONDON, May 26.-After a life work of research and experiment the efforts of the famous Austrian savant, Prof Raimond Nimfuhr, to achieve automatic stability in aeroplanes, have been crowned with success.
 He has now perfected secret me- clsanism which is likened to the an- tennae of insects and it now only re- quires simplifcations in operation to be brought into everyday use.
 It is described as sensory organ, and is shielded from view in a smooth metal chamber which projects in hol low tube in front of the airplane in flight.
 Uncanny is the only description one can apply to the way in which this 'brain" will correct an error of the pilot. Should he by any chance cause his craft to stall or come practically to a standstill in the air with the per il of a plunge, the brain promptly assumes control and tilting the bow a little downward sends the machine on a glide which immediately restores the lift of it's wings.
 Any fluctuations in the air currents are instantly detected by the new de- vice which automatically stabilizes the controlling planes so that the machine remains in steady flight nc matter what disturbances may be en countered.
 Not only, declares the professor can great air liners be so stabilized by their automatic brains but his in vention has now brought the produc tion of small Fords into the realm! of possibility. Such machines, h. claims, fitted with the new device will be practically fool proof.
