 Miss Alice Supplee, young Seattle school teacher returned to the Spir- it City last week from the Arctic on the adventurous Maid of Orleans, and who holds the record of being the white woman who has penetrated farthest north admitted that when she disembarked for the first time she told bits of the life she has led for the last fifteen months, most of the time frozen in within the Arctic circle
 When ! Got Home
 "The first thing I did was to take bath" She admitted it with laugh ter and then I let the water run and run-sheer music. Lack of wa ter was the hardest thing, but I lik- ed the life. I may go back"
 School At Seal
 Alice Supplee left Seattle fifteen months ago with Captain Klingen- berg, we'll known in Seward, and small crew, to go up into Victoria Land, in the northeastern Arctic, to teach Captain Klingenberg's daugh- ters and native children and adults. With her she took all the parapher- nalia of the public school: chalk, blackboard, colored crayons, paints, primers, first readers, colored pa pers and in the tiny cabin of the Maid of Orleans, frozen tight and high in the ice in that sea of the farthest north, two miles from a mountainous shore, the first native school within a radius of nearly l. 900 miles was taught by the pretty white girl still in her twenties.
 T had to translate COW into carl bou, chickens into ptarmigan in teaching them to read" Miss Sup plee explained. They have never seen a COW nor chicken nor horse. They were bright and eager. became very fond of them, and they of me. And they are jolly good company.
 There's Little To Do.
 But I got so fat" she deplored. You have to get fat to keep warm, and I'm still trying to get used to shoes For the whole time, except on Christmas Day, I wore the na- tive clothes, skin suit with the fur next to my body, then a second suit of fur trousers and boots and arctics. How cold? I don't know When it moderated to fifty below we made toboggans and went coast ing The cold makes you ravenous and sleepy; there's little to do but eat, sleep and read through the long winter"
 As the only white woman in Vic toria Land Miss Supplee was a curiosity. The natives came for miles to see her, touch her hair and her skin, see her blue eyes.
 Too Near Sights
 T didn't find it the so-called silent north,' rather it was a crashing north with the snap and crackle of the au- rora borealis, the boom of the ice splitting and coiloding, and the howl and barking of the huskies and the thin sharp cry-which sounded like an icicle looks-of the little white Arctic fox. I couldn't see the colors of the northern lights, we were too close, lived fairly under them

The Mississippi Tragedy.

Just what caused the Government
steamer Norman, conveying a party of
engineers and their families upon
convention excursion on the Missis-
sippi River, to capsiZe may never be
known. The boat lies on the bottom
of the river. at point of exceptionally
swift and turbulent current, and may
not be refioated to give evidence of the
circumstances which led to the dis
aster. There is no suggestion that she
was overloaded, or that her company
through some sudden movement in a
body caused the craft to overturn. In
midstream, it appears. she began to
careen, and before life preservers
could be distributed, before a lifebOat
could be launched, she had turned
turtle and sunk. The loss of life is un-
known at present, but is probably
more than %, with others missing.
These Cats strophes on the water
are always ieeply shocking. They
come, as a 'ule, with no warming
Some years tgo the steamer Eastland,
eXcursionists, overturned and sank in
her slip in Chicago, before quitting
shore, and a great number Of people
lost their lives. The Norman sank
after having made a considerable dis
tanCe on her course, without giving
evidence Of anything wrong.
This was a Government boat, and
therefore is supposed to have been in
the best of condition. and in the ut
most degree conformable to the regu-
lations for security. She was only re-
for the engineer service. Her com
mander was a man with a long service
on the Mississippi and with the United
States, without a blemish on his rec
ord as a careful. capable shipmaster
This fact adds to the mystery of the
disaster.
Reports of the tragedy state that
heroism was displayed by all those
who We're caught in the death trap of
the sinking vessel. 1t is the instinct
Of men and women to face death calm
ly. with self-denial when there is a
chance to aid others. The sinking of
the Norman adds another proof of the
manliness and courage and sacrificing
consideration of people who are caught
in the balance.

might have gathered treasure.
Whether he buried much of it, or any,
near the village of Andrievka is the
question.
Treasure of Alexander the Great
would be double treasure. The gold
would be gold worth so much an
ounce, but the gold coins, vases and
amulets taken from kings, princesses
and priests at Thebes and scores of
other cities would be worth more than
their weight in gold. Lovers of
antiques, lovers of things with i'm
perial associations, lovers of things

der, conquest and assassination would
bid against each other.
The dispatch says: Although there
are no precise historical data indiCat-
ing the existence of such treasure, the
archeologists were led to excavate by
the statement of an SO-year-old resi-
dent of Andrievka, who says he owns
an ancient map stolen from a Turkish
sultan many years ago showing the
The old mans story of a stolen map
has a reminiscent sound to persons
who have been burnt by the buried
treasure fever.
The dispatch also says that 1T is
an established historical fact that
Alexandcr's troops mutinied at one
point in the great empire builders
campaign against Persia-2,256 years
ago-and local legend has it that he
buried all his treasure somewhere on
the Caspian littoral to prevent it
falling into the hands of the mu-
tineers.' The trouble with many local
legends of buried treasure is that they
cover too much ground, and that it is
hard to pin them down to any particu-
lar spot.

Buried Treasure.

A report sent from Baku says that
search has been begun by the Aver
baijan Archaeological Society for the
treasure OF Alexander the Great, which
is believed to be buried near the viii
lage Of Andrievka. 1t is rather re-
lief that the quest for buried treasure
has been shifted to the neighborhood
of Baku, and that it is the wealth of
Alexander which is sought. Search
for the buried treasure of Capt Kidd
and that Of the Louisiana Mississippi
pirate patriot, Jean Lafitte, has been
carried on 50 extensively that it is
right to give the treasure of Alexander
a chance. So much also has been writ

cas- and of gold in sunken galleons
that it is diverting to hear from the
region of the Caucasus Mountains and
the Caspian Sea, in old Georgia, which
is now the Azerbaiian Republic
Many unsatisfactory results have
attended the search for buried treas
ure, and in the matter Of finding the
wealth of Alexander one should keep
expectation and enthusiasm under con.
troll. 1t is believed that the third King

Good Business at Hand.

No agency of Government comes in
closer contact with finance and in
dustry of the country than the Fed
eral Reserve Board. Through its
member banks it responds immedi-
ately to the state of what is generally
called business. Indices of the con-
dition of production and commerce
are immediate and infallible. Salts
faction can be felt, therefore, in the
survey of the first quarter of 1925,
made public yesterday by the Federal
Reserve Board of the material pros
perity of the country.
This survey shows that the output
of basic industries has been consider
ing period a year ago. 1t is crafty
ing to note that foreign demand for
American products showed large in
crease. Our foreign trade, which is
such an important element to the
manufacturers, continues to increase.
The volume of merchandise distribu-
ton has been at a higher level. The
foreign sales of American agricultural
implements, for instance, have been
much larger than for the comparable
period of both 1924 and 1923.
The pay roll of factory workers,
although somewhat lower than in
March, 1924. has gained steadily since
last Summer, and is about 20 per cent
above the low point reached last June.
Foreign countries are taking in larger
quantities of crude materials and food
stuffs, exports of cotton having in.
creased 49 per cent since last Summer
and exports of wheat have increased
153 per cent. Satisfaction is found in
the steady growth in building activity
and in the automobile industries. II
is explained that building activity has
been expanding almost continuously
since 1921, absorbing in recent years
about Is per cent of the annual out
