THIS MURDER FAILS
Washington Husband Shocked To Learn That He Had Been Marked For Death

Washington. June UP)-Thc story of a murder that failed was revealed today. with a chiropractor and a matron held for conspiracy. The latter's guileless husband was shocked" to learn he had been marked for death.
 It was story of insurance, a fel low lodge member plotted with dissatisfied wife, and great per feet crime foiled because the man hired" to commit it was not a pro- fessional killer but a police detec tive.
 The wife. held at the detention house, was not of the sash welding variety. She had a certain refine ment, the detective said. in that she left all the details to the doctor and hoped never to see the gunman who was to rid her of her husband.
 The principals. as related by Rob- ert F. Langdon, the detective, were Joseph Apolonio. 45, owner of sheet metal works: Anna Apolonio, she hoped eventually to marry.
 Last Friday, Lahgdon said, he was approached by a private detective who had been working to get di- vorce evidence for Mrs. Apolonio. Langdon. posing as Buffalo gun man with seven murders to his credit, met the chiropractor. who was a lodge brother of the sheet metal man.
 pr. Hammer. Langdon said, pro- posed that the latter rent a car take Apolonio riding in it. and on a lonely road use a blackjack. Then Langdon was either to fire a bullet into the husbands brain or thrust a screwdriver up Apolonio's. nostrils. in either case breaking the wind shield and putting glass in the wound to make it appear Apolonio had been killed in an auto crash. Later Mrs. Apolonio was to collect double indemnity accident insur- ance.
 l The murder. Langdon said, was set for tonight. He exhibited checks 1 totalling SLIGO which he said the doctor gave him flor services" Last night Apolonio came home from a lodge meeting to find Langdon had arrested Mrs. Apolonio and Dr. Hammer
 "I am unable to think. am so surprised" he said. ''I have felt for some time something was wrong but I never thought of this"

Plan :. To Drive
 Long Tunnel

J. G. Calvin, president of the Lake Virginia Mining Co. arrived from the east on the Queen. Sunday morning.
 When seen by the Sentinel re- porter, MT. Calvin stated that MT. K. Carmichael, mining engineer of New York City, had arrived here with him rothe purpose of laying out the season's work. He stated that work would begin at once on driving 4,000-foot tunnel. A small crew is being put to work this week but larger crew will be put to work just as soon as weather condi- tions will permit.
 The tunnel will be used both as a working tunnel and for taking out ore. MT. Calvin states that this long tunnel is being driven to enable his company to obtain de- finite facts regarding the extent of the ore bodies. The information thus obtained will be used in de. termining the size and kind of re iuction mills to be installed. Nor nan c. Shines report from his own sampling, places his lowest average at $22.50 per ton. The ore is lead silver and zinc.
 MT. Calvin states that he has adequate financial backing, inas- much as the people who are financ. ing are the same outfit that are operating the great Normanda mine in Quebec where 5O,OOO,OOO tons of ore have been blocked out.
 The reporter asked MT. Calvin what he expected to do with his water power permit which was granted him by the Federal Power Commission. He replied that he was installing water stream guage on Mill Creek, and that he expected that work would be start ed on a water power project. before the end of the season.-Wrangel Sentinel.

GARBAGE DUMP BE CHANGED

The attention of the Mayor was called to- the matter of disposal of garbage, by MT. Williams of the Bu- reau of Public Roads. It had been suggested that a pile construction be built so that the dumping might be made in deep water in the Mar rows. MT. Williams stated that this would not be permitted so that in any event the dumping would have to be, made in Frederick Sound.
 He further stated that the present of the dump to the public road was undesirable. The matter was discussed by several members of the Club but no solution had been offered to clarify the situation. It is generally believed however, that the only solution to the situation is to use a scow and tow it out into the deeper channels of Frederick Sound where it would be dumped.

Flight Now In Vogue
 This Week

Captain Charles Lindbergh flew his monoplane from New York to Paris in 33 hours thereby success fully made trip for which other concerns and fiiers had made long preparation.
 Having made this long distance trip various interests are setting out for other records. The Pres ident of the San Francisco Chamber Cf Commerce will head group which plans to raise $65,0O0 to add to $35,0OO already promised for a nonstop flight from San Francisco to Honolulu.
 Capt Lindbehrg decided this week to make an air tour of Europe, planning to visit Copenhagen, Der lin, Veina, Rome and Madrid.
 Experiments being made at Kelly Field, San Antonia, Texas has given rise to the belief of aviators that a nonstop world flight will be pos sible. Probably this will be one of the. attempts of science to ovtrcome the laws of nature and elements.

Pulp Mills In Alaska

During the past two months, much was said about the establish ing of pulp and paper mills in Alas ka by large capital. The press of Ju- neau, and Ketchikan, however, do not blazon in glaring headlines the following:
 "E. M. Mills of San Francisco, re- presenting. the Zellerbach Paper Co. was in Seattle Friday looking over sites for a paper mill which the company purposes to build some where on Puget Sound. Mills Mills discussed the matter with a committee from the Port Town send Chamber of Commerce.
 ''He also talked with delegations from, several other towns and said that no decision has been reached as to where the plant will be lOcat- ed. Nothing is certain yet" Mills explained, beyond the fact that we will probably build mill" . Perhaps Alaska will get a pulp mill, but it 8 cinch that the Coast cities will get the major share of the industry. The way to build up Alaska is to bring in a summer or tourist population and then lock up all business houses for the winter and go below. What goods the old 'Ice Box" except for dividends? What cares capital for mere human life and it's needs?
