DR. JONES PERFORMS
 GOITRE OPERATION

Dr. c. P. Jones, accompanied by Miss Helen Teller went to Ketchi- kan last week where he performed an operation on Mrs. Gladys Wil- lard for toxic goitre at the Ketchf- kan General Hospital Miss Teller administered the anaesthetic.
 This is said to be the first opera tion Of the kind to be performed in southeastern Alaska. Dr. Jones previous record entities him to rank as a goitre specialist.
 Mrs. Willard is making a good re coyerery and will return to Wran- gel soon to spend several days in the Wrangell hospital while recu- perating fully
 The operation was performed in Ketchikan on account Of the Wran- gel General Hospital, which other wise is an unusually well equipped and uptodate institution, lacking a gas machine Plans are under way by the hospital board whereby funds will undoubtedly be raised very soon for the purchase of a gas ma chine as such equipment is in ire quent. need for patients where the nature of the case demands a gas anaesthetic rather than ether.

NOTED ALASKA WRITER
 VISITS WRANGELL

Barrett Willoughby accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Charles Will Ioughby. arrived frim San Francisco on the Admiral Rogers Monday morning. Miss Willoughby is the author of Rocking Moon and other stories that have attracted national attention. She is an Alaskan girl having spent most of her life in the North. Her present visit is for the purpose of securing data for further exploiting northern life in both fact and fiction. She has been en- gagged by the Century Company to write travel book on Alaska.
 Miss WilIoughby states that Wrangell will have a prominent place in the forthcoming book. and there will also be found in it's pages references to such well known characters as Capt. s. c. Barring ton whose indomitable energy has put navigation on the stikine on a business basis.

ALL BEAVER SKINS NOT
 SEALED BY AUGUST 29
 SUBJECT TO SEIZURE

With almost tWo-thirds Of the peri cd for sealing beaver taken last May already elapsed. 1t is estimated by the Alaska Game Commission that little more than one-half of the ami mals actually taken have been sealed Approximately 11,00O beaver skins have been sealed by officers and rep resentatiYes of the Commission, and it is estimated that almost as many more remain to be authenticated.
 The regulations under the Alaska Game Law provide that beaver legal. ly taken in areas open for such taking during the month of May, 1927. must be presented to a game warden, game commissioner or othel person authorized by the commission and sealed within 90 days. This pc, riod is more than half elapsed, as it expires August 29, 1927. All skin. maining unsealed after that date are subject to seizure.
 A considerable number of skim have been seized by game wardens as they were taken from beaver kill ed with shotguns, method prohibit ed by law in the taking of any fur bearing animals. A good beaver ski from a trapped animal has an aver age value of about s30, while the same pelt from from an animal killed with a rifle or shotgun depreciate about 50 per cent in value. Many skins from shotgun killed beaver bring less than $10, showing that a little extra time and labor on the part of the trappers would thus pay them extremely well.
 To what extent beaver trapping will be permitted next year depends upon the result of investigations now being made by the Commission. Ev cry effort will be made to determine if the animals were too closely trap ped in any of the areas open for trap ping last spring, and if it is found that any of them have been depleted to such a degree as to endanger the supply, such areas may be closed next year. It is the hope of the Com mission that trappers have been con servatiYe and not cleaned out any district to the extent that will be found necessary to prohibit trapping in it during next season.

CHICAGO-With the announce ment that tickets for the heavy weight title bout between the cham pion, Gene Tunney. and Jack Demp- sey, will go on sale here August 18th, Chicago began to prepare in earnest today for Tex Richards big Boxing Convention which will probably be the greatest promotion al venture of his career. Definite assurance that Chicago had landed the big fight came late yesterday after Rickard was informed that the South Park board had oked the leasing of Soldiers Field for the event The rental figure was set at $1OO,O00. Rickard agreed prompt ly to the figure and when asked by President Edward J. Kelley if this meant that Chicago would stage tn fight, the New York promoter re- piled, Chicago gets the fight.
