SILK STOCKINGS

"It takes all my money to buy silk stockings" mourns the up-to-date woman, who would rather go hungry, if need be, than not wear silk stock ings. shapeless, black cotton stock ings with high topped shoes were all right in the days when women's skirts swept the sidewalks. but not today However, the silk stocking bill can be cut in half by buying at the Wyatt-Cramer store. W h T e stockings in all the new shades, all silk from top to toe, popular pointed heel, ravel stop, scanned back and fashioned markings, are sold regular ly for one dollar a pair. Give this stocking trial and you will be steady customer. adv.

FUR REGULATION BRANDED
AS HANDICAP 10 INDUSTRY

@aA AsaaAaH afA 7aa=sA a =s
 Anchorage Chamber of Commerce
 Believes Established Fur Farms
 Should Have Right to Trap New
 Stock When Needed.
 WHEREAS. none Of these fur farms is on a paying basis. but all of them are more in the nature of an ex- pertinent. which, fl successful. would tend to build up an important indus try; and
 "WHEREAS. most of the fur farm CTS engaged in business in this yiein= ity are working on limited capital, supplied in most cases by the manual labor of the farmers. and have not sufficient means to purchase addi- tional stock necessary to keep t up to the desired standard; and.
 WHEREAS. the Alaska Game Commission has announced as it's policy that it will in no case grant permits for the taking Of live fur bearing animals out of season for the purposes of propagation and domesti= cation to established fur farms
 "Now. Therefore. It Is Hereby Re solved by the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce, that this policy. as now pursued by the said Alaska Game Commission is unjust and unfair in that it does not take into account the fact that while fur farm may be es- tablished. it is frequently not on paying basis and such policy. if ad hered to without consideration to the needs of each particular applicant will doubtless result in great damage to this infant Alaskan industry"

ALBERT OSBORN EE ROUTE
HOME FROM 00osEHEART

Albert Osborn. 17zyear=old son of the late Al Osborn. will arrive in Prince Rupert next Saturday enroute from Mooseheart. Illinois. to Juneau where he will visit for q time with his brother. John Osborn.
 For the past eight years Albert, his older sister. Gertrude. and young CT sister Anna. have been members of the unique school and home owned and administered by the Moose lodge for the orphaned children Of Moose members. At Mooseheart the ehll- dren are trained to earn their living by the trade Of their choice in which they must be proficient before they are allowed to graduate from the Mooseheart high school.
 In a recent letter written 10 L. NJ. Churchill of Wrangell. administrator of the Osborn estate and guardian of the minor children. Gertrude says in part:
 Albert Is q good honest boy and can do anything. He Is q very eapa- ble boy. He has taken the trade of sign painting and he Is a success at it. He has made many pretty things and sold them
 Perhaps you would Ike to know a little about us. Anna Is just fine and growing like a weed She Is now in the 9th grade and is doing fine so far this term. I hope she keeps up with her good record. If you can remem- Der anything about Anna. you can rest assured that she is still the same cute little Anna.
 Now for myself. I am doing just fine. For my trade I am going to be a private secretary or rather that is my ambition I have already had two years of shorthand and typfne. and am now starting my third year have been a secretary to Mrs. Taft. the Girls Vocational Director. and like the work very much. I am now earning money for when I leave Mooseheart. I am working for Mr. Taylor, a Mooseheart graduate. who writes items for the Mooseheart Weekly.
 You wouldn't recognize me now. I'm sure, Mr Churchill, because I have grown so much I am a young lady now. And I believe I am the very picture Of John and my father.
 T certainly owe lot to my father for being member of the Loyal Or der of Moose. The opportunities here are so wonderful you cannot help but be a success when you leave Moose heart. I expect to be a success; that is, if work hard enough I will be. and I really expect to work hard.
 Just one more year and then shall come home to you folks. Per haps you will be surprised and per haps you will not I am working hard my last year. I realize now hat have not always taken adyan- tage of the opportunities laid before me. This I regret very much indeed am working for all am worth to make up for it. One never knows what one misses until it is too late.
 "Please answer this letter as soon as possible. or after Albert returns and let me know what you think of him as a former student of Moose heart. know he will be a credit to Mooseheart, because he can hold his own any place."

RYDER DRIVING
 SIX HUNDRED FOOT TUNNEL Owners Greatly Encouraged Over Results on American Side of
 Portland Canal

Active development is now under way on the Butte-Hyder property in the Portland Canal district, on the American side of the international boundary line. Three mining engi- neers are members of the company owning and developing the property, upon which the tunnel is being driven at the rate of five feet per shift. Every foot of it is in ore, there being 10 dead work to be reckoned with
 This promising property is con trolIed by the Butte-Hyder Company, Inc. IL consists of fourteen mineral claims. located about eight miles from Hyder. Alaska, and about the same distance from Stewart, B c, the principal shipping points for the Portland Canal district. The claims adjoin the '. s. Government high way. recently built up the Salmon River. The vein is found upon steep mountain side. so that great vertical depth is obtained within a comparatively short distance.
 From the very portal of the tun- nel now being driven to it's first ob- ieetive point of 600 feet, the ore is following a gold-silyer-lead ore body which averages about five and one half feet in width on the surface and runs about S8S to the ton in value. Along one wall of this vein is found six=ineh streak of high-grade ore averaging over s100 to the ton. Un- derground development. according to the latest reports, indicates that the vein has widened. at the end of 100 feet of tunnel. to nearly ten feet while the high-grade streak has wid- ened to nearly two feet. Although the engineers of the company expect ed improvement with depth, they had no expectation of such rapid improve ment in so short a distance. Need less to say. they are highly enthusi- astie over the results obtained so far According to J. Carew BoultOn, who is at the property in charge of devel- opment, there is every reason to eX- peet a continued improvement, and the indications are that a very large .high-grada lens of ore may soon be opened up. The vein which is being driven upon may be plainly seen at intervals on the surface for a dis tance of 1900 feet.
 If the 600-foot tunnel now being driven nncovers ore having an aver age value no greater than that found on the surface above, it will prove up about $2,000,000 gross lying over head alone. The tunnel itself, it is claimed, should produce over S40,000 of high-grade shipping ore, in addi- ton to a great quantity of milling ore. which will be stored on the dump for future treatment.
 One of the largest producing mines in Canada is within three miles This is the famous Premier mine, with an accredited production, dur ing the past eight years, of over $25,- 0O0,000, almost half of which has been paid in dividends to stockhold- CTS. Other properties in the district that have developed large ore bodies include the Big Missouri, B. c. Sil- yer, Woodbine. Porter-Idaho, and others. The Guggenheims (Premier) and the Consolidated of Canada have recently taken control of several

Mrs. Gus Rudelbach of Anchorage who is now visiting relatives in Ger many writes that the cost of living there has mounted greatly in recent years, while the wages have not ad- vanced proportionately and are far from being adequate to meet the re- quirements of the average family. She says her allowance of $30 a week which she receives from her husband while on her trip, is barely enough to cover her expenses, and she wonders how some of the German families ex- ist on the wages paid there.

Blackmer wa sserved with a sub

fiscate 100000 Of his money. One
suit of this kind is now pending in

ONeil, rumored to be in a monas-

flames, as there was constant
danger of explosion of several bar
rels of gun cotton, housed in the
burning building. Only two minor
explosions occurred. Given a late
start, the department responded to
two alarms and brought the blaze
under control, despite the highly
imflammable materials in the one
story frame building.
One of the six employees of the
plant was mixing stain in the lab
oratory, when it took fire, according
to President William Lilly. At
temps we're made to extinguish the
blaze with fire extinguishers, before
the department was called.
When the blaze got beyond con-
troll, Lilly started to escape from
the building. A series of hot paint
cans on a shelf exploded as he
passed them, drenching him with
sticky, black paint.
The loss is covered by insurance.
