Alfred AhrenStedt
 Dies OI Pneumonia

Alfred Ahrenstedt, aged to years, died in Wrangell at 10:30 A. NJ. Wednesday morning. The funeral took place this afternoon under the auspices of Wrangell Igloo No. 21 Pioneers of Alaska with Staff-Cap tain w. J. Carruthers officiating
 On Monday friends of MT. Ahren stedt discovered that he was seri- ously i'll in his small boat at the head of the bay. He was moved to one of the cabins on the Lemieux dock, and w. E. Lloyd of the Pic neers lodge undertook the task of caring for him under the doctors s direction. MT. Lloyd was assisted by Hon. w. D. Grant, Paddy Coburn, L. M. Churchill and other pioneers. In fact all the old timers, whether members of the Pioneer organization or not, let it be known that they were ready to do anything in their power to help the patient.
 From the time MT. Ahrenstedt : illness became known there was little hope for his recovery. He had pneumonia and had been alone in a damp gasboat without attention uD- til he was nearer dead than alive when he was moved into town.
 Alfred Ahrenstedt was born in Sweden April 29, 1863. He first came to Alaska during the Klondike rush in 1897. He spent consider able time in the Interior and was thoroughly familiar with the coun- try along the Yukon from White horse to Nome. Nothing is known of his relatives except that he has a nephew somewhere in the State of Illinois.
 MT. Ahrenstedt was man of many admirable traits, and was re- spected and beloved generally by those who knew him. He had re- sided in Wrangell since 1911.

ANCHORAGE-"T is no req son why the army world fliers should not successfully complete their mission" Carl B. Eielson, Al aska's first aerial postman, said in an interview accorded The Times.
 "It is a dangerous mission, natur- ally, but the fliers are all expert enced air pilots, they have plenty of reserve equipment on which to draw in case of damage to their ships and they will be given every aid in the countries through which they will pass," he continued. ''The globe fliers will be striking good weather from now on and I, for one, am hop ing they will be able to make their long trip without mishap."
 Lieutentant Eielson admitted he envied the world fliers their great opportunity.
 Eielson and Harold T. Lewis, gov ernment test pilot, yesterday sent greetings to Major Fred L. Martin, the world flight commander, at Kan atak, where repairs will be made to the damaged flagplane Seattle. The message was communicated by A. A. Shonbeck, via wireless through the Standard Oil company at Kanatak. It said: Lewis and Eielson, of the aerial mail service, who tried to reach Seward in time to greet you there wish to extend you congratula- tions on successfully handling your ship under extreme difficulties and the wish that your troubles will now cease In the above I take the liberty of joining. Many happy landings and God bless you"
 Aviator Eielson is today one of the best paid men in the aerial mail service. He receives s200 a mile for carrying mail between Fairbanks and McGrath, twice month. This amounts to $20O an hour, while in the air, or about s3O,OOO. net, annu- ally. The government furnishes the plane. a DeHaviland four, and also pays for all repairs. The pilot buys the gasoline and oil, furnishes the field and hangar and makes all repairs necessary.
