| Q fthe water. After clinging there for | some time, with occasional cakes of ice coming against them with consider able force, rendering their positions doubly hazardous, Keplan finally de- cided to take a chance on one of the cakes and climbed upon the first that offered sufficient buoyancy. It was a case of each man for himself. Perched on top of his ice cake Kep- Ian drifted down stream about mile, without being able to get close to the shore line. Fearful that the ice would go to pieces under him he finally took to the ice cold water and swan to nearby island After being there a short time, the water, which was ris ing rapidly, overflowed his landing place and he was forced to swim to the mainland some distance away, with ice cakes and swift current com bining to make the swim both difficult and perilous. He was successful, how ever, and once on solid ground he started out in search of aid for his partner, arriving at the cabin of Jul jus Warner sometime later. Here he obtained food and dry clothing and then started to the rescue of Perlham. Arriving at the place where the boat capsized, no trace could be found of the young man. It is believed he did not try to get on an ice cake, as his partner had done, and become so numbed by the cold water that he oculd no longer retain his hold, on the willows and sank in the water.
 Keplan made his way to the N. c. store at Minto on Saturday and Louis telephoned to town for aid. The launch Dan Patch was immediately dispatch ed down river and has searched both banks of the stream below the scene of the accident, without finding trace of Perlham.
 Perlham was about 26 years of age and had been in Alaska about three years working part of the time for the Alaska railroad. His home was in Milwaukee.

NENANA, May 20-The swift wat CTS of the Panama river claimed their first victims of the present season early last Thursday in the person of Chaim Perlman, former employe of the Alaska Railroad, who started down river in polling boat on Wednesday in company with Joe Keplan.
 The two men left Nenana Wednes- day morning and the following morn ing, at about six o'clock, while they were passing through Minto cutoff slough, the swift current carried their boat into cut bank, where it capsiZ- ed. The two men grabbed hold of some willows, but the bank was too steep and they could not reach to climb out
