These are two of the best Diesel boats along the coast, new and up to date in every way.

many times in an advisory capacity to the aged King Christian, and par ticipated over period of 20 years in some of the most important poli- teal moves in Europe.
 She was kindly, generous and sym pathetic, yet vindictive when once she harbored dislike. This latter characteristc was brought out most prominently in her social war on Princess Maud, youngest daughter of King Edward VII of England, which lasted for many years.
 While the demure little Princess had in reality done nothing more serious than fall in love and subse- quently marry Prince Charles of Den mark, second son of Princess Louise, it was enough to bring down upon her head, all the wrath which that remarkable woman was capable of feeling. The Princess had set her heart on a marriage between her
 
 son and the young Queen of Holland, who was inclined to look upon his suit with favor This dream was rudely interrupted, however, when the young Prince met and fell desper- ately in love with the English Prin- cess, who became his wife a few months later.
 The anger of Princess Louise, which was said never to have been appeased. was the more pronounced because she felt that her son ulti- mately would become King of Hol. land a Id were he to marry into the House of Orange. The fact that he finally consented to give up an ob- scure, but happy life to accept the Grown of Norway was due largely. it is said, to the hope that he might thus reconcile his mother to the wo- man of his choice.

 WORK FOR 1926
ACTIVITIES BEGUN AT MILE s5
General Manager Smith Assured of
 S1,7O0,o00 This Season.

Most of the important work along the Alaska Railroad belt this season will be filling in the many trestles and completing construction of brid ges, according to Noel w. Smith. gen eral manager, who, accompanied by Mrs. Smith, and MT. and Mrs. N. M Lack, of Hanover, Penn, arrived in Seward Saturday from Seattle. Mr Lack, former Pennsylvania railroad official, has been appointed by MT Smith to the position of assistant to the general manager.
 Railroad work this season will be about the same as last, Mir. Smith stated and about an equal number of men will be added to the payroll With respect to the Seward division there is nothing definite outlined with the exception of the various forces which will be scattered along the en- tire right of way on fills and bridges. A crew was sent out to Mile S5 last week to do the preliminary work prior to the. arrival, this week, of the regu- lar crew. There is one thing, how ever, MT. Smith pointed out, which will reflect considerably to this port, the same being the arrival from the States of huge tonnage for the Fair banks Exploration Company. With this additional freight business in view it is confidently expected all pre- vious records will be exceeded.
 Associated Press dispatches publish ed in The Gateway during the past few months have informed the pub lie with regards to the assurance giv- en MT. Smith by Congress that the sum of $1,700,000 for maintenance and in the transportation system will be available, beginning with the fiscal year, July 1, 1926. The house has authorized the expenditure and the Senate will no doubt take similar action shortly. MT. Smith stat ed yesterday the amount is not quite what he asked for, but is sufficient ly ralge enough to carry out the major part of this seasons program. All construction work, of a temporary na- ture, will be made permanent, he said.
 The official railroad car, B-1, was brought over to Seward Saturday from rail headquarters and attached, yes terday, to the regular freight, which left at noon with Mir. Smith and his party

CEASE DRILLING
 ON LEE CLAIM
 AT COLD BAY
STANDARD OIL COMPANY BELIEV- ED PREPARING MOVE TO
 EAST FIELD
DRILLING HALTED MARCH TENTH
All Equipment Being Moved to Kan atak-PuIIins 10000 Feet of
 Casing from Workings

The Standard Oil Company has abandoned Lee Claim No. 1, on Pearl Creek, and is tearing down the mach. inery and buildings preparatory to moving the entire outfit into Kanatak arrivals in Seward yesterday report Just what the company's next move will be could not be ascertained at Ka- natak, but it is stated that no shipping orders have been received from the San Francisco office. The majority of the people in the Cold Bay region are under the impression that the com pany's move is a favorable indication that drilling will shortly begin in the East Field, on the Salmon and Bear Domes. It is pointed out if the com pany is shifting drilling operations to the East Field the equipment would have to be routed thru Kanatak.
 The company has been drilling for practically three years and had reach ed a depth of 5035 feet when the hole caved in, just recently, and $50 feet of casing lost. Instruction came from the San Francisco headquarters about March 10 to cease drilling. The en- tire equipment is estimated at about 450 tons and will take at least three or four months to move into Kanatak owing to the poor condition of roads. Three tractors will be used in this work.
 Instead of laying off men the com pany is adding men to the payroll who are at present pulling out 10000 feet of casing and tearing down nu- merous buildings. AS was previously stated, Harry Brown, the new super intendent, has had no instructions as yet to ship the outfit to any particular point, in or outside of Alaska.
 From one source of information, The Gateway learns that it is the general supposition at Kanatak that the Stand ard Oil Company is forming a subsi- diary company to drill in Cold Bay, but more liberal terms are to be asked from the government, meaning proba- bly,, smaller royalties.
 The East Field is located about 2 miles from Kanatak in a northeast di- rection. Lighters from Kanatak can take the outfit to a point two miles from the field. Geologists claim oil will be tapped in the East Field at depth of about 5000 feet whereas oth- CT geologists were under the impress sion, owing to the structure in the vii cinity where the company has been drilling, that oil would have been reached at 5000 feet. And the deepest we'll in the world is said to be a little better than 1000 feet in depth. This well is located in Pennsylvania.
 The bulk of theclaims in the East Field are owned by Seward and Anch- orage people. L. V. Ray, H. s. Bal derston, W. w. French, Stewart Cor. don, each have one claim and Earl Grammer has two. There are numer. ous others who also have holdings in the field.

 The Shumigan cannery of the P. A. F. at Squaw Harbor is making many improvements. Last year this was a successful two-line cannery. They are adding another line and installing all the latest machinery for this season besides building additional bunk hous- es, tearing down old buildings and putting up larger ones, anticipating a very good season this year. A. H, Bradford is supt. of the Shumigan cannery. About 70 men are employed at present but about twice that num- Der will be needed when the fishing starts.

QUEEN
 LOUISE, DENMARK DIES PNEUMONIA

COPENHAGEN, March p (R.- Dowager Queen Louise, of Denmark, died from pneumonia early Saturday morning.
 Princess Louise, of Denmark, daughter of King Charles XIV of Sweden and Norway, was the tallest and the richest Princess in Europe when she became Queen of Denmark in 1906 upon the ascendancy of her husband, Crown Prince Frederick, who succeeded to the throne of his father, King Christian K when the latter died January 30, 1906 in his S3th year.
 For a brief six years the strikingly beautiful, serious-minded and notor- iously democratic Queen Louise re- mained upon the throne with her popular and much worshipped con- sort, King Frederick VIII, who con- ducted the affairs of his government in such manner that he frequently was spoken of as one of the most competent "business men, who ever guided the destinies of a kingdom Queen Louise's part in the happiness and prosperity this short reign prot to the people of Denmark was fully recognized throughout continental Europe.
 The sudden and unexpected death of King Frederick from a stroke of apoplexy while he was walking un- known and unattended through. the streets of Hamburg, Germany on the night of May 15, 1912, ended Queen Louise's tenure, Whereupon she step- ped down from the throne in favor of her oldest son, Grown Prince Christian, and his wife, who was the Duchess AleXandrine, of Mecklenburg.
 Dowager, Queen Louise was born October 31, 1851. It has often been said that her leanings toward demo- cracy were directly due to her re- cent ancestry, as her grandmother was the famous Desiree Clary, a tradesman's daughter, who captivated Bonaparte and later married Marshal Bernadotte, subsequently, the King of Sweden and Norway.
 At the age of IS, Princess Louise was married to Crown Prince Fred erfck, bringing to the reigning house of Denmark the huge fortunes which she had inherited from Prncess Lou ise of Orange, daughter of Prince William Frederick, of the Neither lands. She was 45 years of. age when her husband, at the age of, 61, succeeded his father.
 Preceding this, there. had been an- pie time for the masterful character which, marked her life, to become fully developed. She. had reared a family of eight children-four sons and four daughte managed and expanded her huge fortune; acted
