dR. WoRDEN'S CONDITION
 CONSIDERABLY IMPROVED

Friends of J. E. Worden will be
 leased to learn that his condition
 as improved considerably since he Fent to Bell Island Hot Springs.
 The publisher of the Sentinel re- ceived a letter from MT. Worden a
 w days ago on personal business but at the close of his letter was the following paragraph regarding his condition:
 "I am positive that I have been greatly benefited by bathing and using the mineral water. At the present time I feel assured that so far as physical conditions go I am, or will be by October 1, in excellent condition for minor operation performed by a competent surgeon. I have gained considerable flesh and they all say down here that look 100 per cent better than when I ar rived, but that doesn't change the fact that I shall take the first op- portunity to be relieved of some thing beyond the power of mineral water to cure I intend to go from here to Juneau for consultation and advice as to necessity for surgical work which I am satisfied must be done before I can feel assured of complete recovery"

Henry H. Darud, a hydraulic ex- pert who went into the Cassiar early in August for the purpose of making a thorough examination from hydraulic standpoint of the holdings of the Dease Creek Mines Corporation on Dease Creek, ar rived in Wrangell Monday on his way Outside. When seen by the Sentinel reporter MT. Darud stated that his investigations had been highly satisfactory. He said that the ground looked so good to him that he was coming back just as soon as he could attend to some per sonal matters Outside. He expects to return shortly after the first of the year, and will go up the Stikine by dog team over the ice.
 MT. Darud is a hydraulic man of wide experience, having been en- gagged in mining by that method the greater part of the past 25 years.

Dease Creek Wonderful
 Hydraulic Proposition

The fact that he intends to hurry back to the Cassiar is significant and tends to further corroborate the generally accepted belief among men that no other stream in the Cassiar has greater hydraulick- ing possibilities than Dease Creek.
 It is significant that H. G. Mi chols, one of the best known mining engineers living today, made the following statement over his own signature after having spent part of a season in the Cassiar:
 "Dease Creek, in particular, is
 attractive. There are benches of
 gravel with very little over-bur
 den and from 20 to 75 feet deep
 and with no indications of cement
 gravel. There is probably far
 more gold to be won from the
 Cassiar gold field than it has yet
 produced, and that by hydrau-
 licking"

BOY SCOUTS

Last Friday evening at 7:30 re- organization meeting of the Wran- gell Troop No. l of the Boy Scouts took place at the Gymnasium. MT. Louis M. Royal who was instrument tai in the organization of the troop two years ago assumed again his old command as head Scoutmaster and John Coulter was appointed As sistant Scoutmaster. Rev. Corser and Supt Hagie were present to lend their encouragement to the movement. A number of the old troop were not present but the members of the ''old guard" who were present put up an exhibition of drilling which demonstrated to the younger members that they had not forgotten their former training, after which MT. Hagie, in a brief address to the troop, expressed his interest in the Scouting movement and emphasized the need of citi- zenship living up to the ideals for which the Boy Scouts of America stands. He pledged his hearty CO., operation toward the troops sue cess and congratulated them on hav- ing a Scoutmaster as we'll trained in Scouting as MT. Royal is.
 James Wheeler was the only First Glass Scout present. Second Class rank was represented by Len nie Engstrom, James Waters, and Vergil Hulse. Those present from the old organization who were still in the Tenderfoot stage were Albert Binkley, Bill Lewis, Jack Gurr John Everson, James Whaley, and Lloyd Benjamin. The new members of the troop were Kenneth Nelson Weston Anderson. and Peter McCor- mack.
 Drawn up in two lines behind the National flag and the Troop banner they saluted and again pledged their allegiance to the worthy prin- ciples for which the organization stands, in the words of the Scout Oath, "On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout law: to help other people at all times; to keep myself pysically strong, men tally awake and morally straight.

RED CROSS

The value of the Red Cross Nurs- ing Service to this community and to adjoining towns is fully demon strated when an emergency arises that requires immediate attention and professional skill.
 When the Princess Alice arrived in port Tuesday morning, a Telegraph Creek Indian woman was transfer ed from the boat to the hotel on stretcher With her was baby girl only three days old. Fear that the present trip of the Hazel B might be the last of the season had prompted the woman to leave the hospital at Prince Rupert so soon after the birth of her child for at Telegraph Creek a brood of other children, the youngest but two years, awaited her arrival. Thought of herself had been set aside in her terror lest she be kept from her family all winter. Upon her arrival
 T the hotel, the Red Cross nurse, Mrs. S. D. Grant, was summoned. The mother required immediat at tention and the baby was scantily clad in three garments. For Mrs. Grants ministrations, the mother was touchingly grateful and the baby girls deep sleep later testified to the soothing effects of warm bath and the comfort of baby clothes which appeared like magic from Wrangell homes, supplement- ing the garments from the Red Cross Loan Closet.
 Then the question of travelling on to Telegraph Creek the next morn ing came up for consideration. Proper care enrOute was imperative and again the mother was terrified lest she be left behind. A hasty consultation between officers of the Red Cross Executive Committee, however, resulted in Mrs. Grants being asked to drop all local work for a few days in order to accom- pany the woman and her child to their destination and to give them that care which the case required. Mrs. Grant acceded to the request and they left the next morning. Capt Burlington made special rate on the fare and it is thought that the Indian Agent at Telegraph will take care of the expense incurr- ed.
 It is a matter of qualification that Wrangell was able to cooper ate in a case of this kind by virtue of it's nursing service, as only a trained nurse, and that nurse, a community worker, could make a trip of this sort on a few hours no- tice.

 During the hearing on Ellis Is- land after Dr. MeCullagh's arrival last month from London, testimony was given Of alleged threats by the surgeon against Miss Furbech's father, her brother-in-law, also Q London surgeon. and others who might impede his suit for the girls hand. The evidence given at this hearing convinced Commissioner of Immigration Curran and the de- pertinent of labor that the girl was not in love with the surgeon and that she had not induced him, as he alleged, to believe she would marry him.
