WOODLAND BEACH TRAPPERS
Mark HiroRs Catches SS Muskrats on
Opening Day of Season Last Week

Mark HIrOnS Catches 80 MuSkrats on
Opening Day of Season Last Week
Woodland Beach, Dec 7.-Muskrat
season opened Wednesday, December
/, and local trappers report many
heavy catches. The heaviest catch, it
is believed, was made by Mark Hirons
who trapped SO rats and two wild
ducks for the first day. The wild
ducks were caught in the steel traps
by their heads while feeding in the
marshes from the marsh rat leads.
Hirons, who is a veteran trapper,
forecast a very long and hard winter,
his prediction being made from the
condition of the fur of the muskrat.
He claims in his 35 years Of trapping
he has never trapped muskrats with
as soft silk like fur as this season.
"You will notice" the trapper said,
"that while the fur is considerably
shorter this season than usual, It IS
very thick, which is always a sign
Of a severe cold winter to follow" The
meats are found to be very fat and IN
excellent condition this year. So eag-
er are the fur dealers to secure the
skins at the price Of S1.25 that many
muskrats are being bought without
being skinned. Muskrat meats are
bringing the usual price Of 10 cents
per meat. Many trappers from dis
tant points are mere living in cottages
and fishing boats to be near their
marsh and will not leave during the
period of the season except to get
supplies and provisions.

A. D. Thompson, a Nenana druggist, and Leo Blistine, trapper, were recently arrest ed at Ncnana on charges of unlawfully selling and using strychnine. Both pleaded guilty before the commissioner at Nenana and fines were impos- ed. Thompson sold the poison in bottle bearing ordinary inscriptions, but inside the wrappers were written in- structions to trappers telling them how to use the drug for poisoning fur-bearing animals. It is stated that the Kantishna, once thickly populated by fur bearing animals, is now almost deserted, due largely to the use of poison.

AFFIRMS DECISION IN
 FAVOR OF GRUBSTAKEs

The supreme court of Idaho recently affirmed a grubstake agreement carried up from a lower court of Butte county, according to a Boise report.
 A suit over a mining claim in Butte county was decided in favor of Roy Hawley and C. w. McChesney against Daniel Ron1ney, E. B. King and D. V. ATchbold, by the state supreme court. The plaintiffs asserted they had a grub stake agree ment with Romney, in return for which they were each to have one-third interest in the claims he might locate. They asserted they had visited the ground and found he had stalk cd certain claims in his own name. The lower court, after the parties to the agreement had tried to confirm titles to themselves as against each other, decided in favor of the grubstakers and this finding the supreme court affirmed.

: About 400 tons of silver ore; the first of the seasons ship ments from the Mayo district, arrived in Seward a few days ago from Nenana, and was sent south on the steamer Alaska. The ore was brought to Nenana on the White3Pass steamer Yukon and marks the resumption of shipping out ov- CT the Alaska Railroad instead of by the way of the up-. per Yukon river. The ore filled a large barge and when trans ferred to the railroad filled nine cars.
