 Two other buyers were on the trail together, it was said, when differences arose, chiefly over ali axe. One had .wo axes, while the other had none, and the buyer who possessed the nec- essary trail implements sold one to his companion for $10, the original cost having. been s2.50. A fight among heir dogs finally terminated what

 It was said that on another occasion fur buyye. who preceded another on he trail told the Indians as he passed aong that the man following him was a prohibition agent, with the result that the Indians took to the hills and

 Lottsfeldt has been superintendent in the Kuskokwim country for the Alaska Road Commission some time, and will return this spring to. continue his work. The chief operations com pleted last summer, he said, were the completion of a three-miIe road be- tween Takotna and Ophir and con- struction of an additional mile and one-half to the Little creek road to the Ophir mining country, serving the Plume Dredging Company and stveral smaller operators in the Little creek district.

ICE CONCRETE" A LATE IN.
 VENTION FROM FINLAND

"Ice concrete" is the name of a new, porous and light building ma terial recently invented in Finland. This new substance is made of cement
 and sand, like any other concrete, but it differs greatly from ordinary con- crete in that it has been made ex- tremely porous by mixing it with crushed ice and snow. Then the mois- ture is eyaported through heating. By this process the block or brick is honeycombed evenly by the tiny pores. No additional water in com position is needed, since the water re- quired is formed through the melting of the ice or snow. The degree of porousness of this concrete can be ac- curately determined in advance by the quality of ice or snow used. Conse- quently the weight of the material is in direct relation to the number and size of the pores. 1t is possible to

SUPT. CARL LUTTSFELDT TLS OF WORK DONE FOR
 THE KUSKOKWIM REGION

Having completed dog team trip of 980 mics through the Kuskokwim country from Takotra to Kanatak on the Alaska peninsula. which occupied a period of nearly two months, Carl E. Lottsfeldt, superintendent of the Alaska RnadeC Commission in the Kus kakwim cauntry; arrived in Juneau re- ceiitly ,toacompile his report for the Commission Lottsfeldt made an in spection of winter trails and shelter cabins constructed by the Commission in the K usl1o okwim and is the first off cia9 to undertake: such R mission ir the 'past. Three years. He was accom- pa#ied On His. trips by Lars Indegard.

 Four new shelter cabins were con- structed in the Kuskokwim. country last fall-one. on the, Iditarod- -Shag lux trail at the Little, Yentna river, th9 second at 4hestoethilIs on the. Tu- iksak-Bear creek trail, and the third and fourth sen4the' trail. between Apo kak. station and Quinhagak.
 The winter trails and the shelter cabins are all in good shape, Lotts- feldt told the :Juneau@ Empire
 Lottsfeldt and Indegard left Ta- kotna November 30 last and followed the regular trail across country, going through Flat and Holy Cross and down the Yukon river to PPai- mute, across the portage tosKaltshak on the Kuskekwim river. From that point the trail goes down the Kusko- kwim river to Bethel, thence along the coast to Good News Bay, on to Dillingham;, thence to .Naknek on ttfe Alaska peninsula, and on to Ugsgnk, up the Ugaguk river to Racharof lake and thence to Kanatak, where connec- tions are made with the steamer Starr foa Seward They reached kan- at.k January.

New Year's eve they were "siwashing". it in a snow bank on the trail.
 The season is one of the best for trapping red fox that has been known in years in the Kuskokwim country, according to Lottsfeldt. Some of the; Indian trappers are catching as much as one fox every day. Prices are re- ported to be very good.
 A total of 1,5O0 red fox skins were shipped on the steamer Starr at Ka- natak on the trip last month, Lotts- feldt stated, and. the entire fur ship- ment made from that point was said to aggregate about $50,000.

Governor Wins
Suit on Behalf
Bank Depositors

AUSTIN. June 21.-(P-Governor
Moody, suing on behalf Of depositors
Of the defunct Celeste State bank,
emerged victor Thursday in a de-
cision Of the court Of civil appeals
at Texarkana rendering judgment
against II. +. Jones and other sure
ties Of the. bank for recovery of the
$4,000 bond made to protect depos-
itors.
1t was the first case tried and ap-
pealed under the bond security sys-
TEN Of state banks. Under a Lave
passed by the 18th legislature. the
governor was empowered to sue on
behalf of state bank depositors for
recovery on bonds.
The Texarkana appeals court up
held the position of Governor Moody
and Assistant Attorney General Al
len Clark that the law authorizing
the state banking board to fix forms
Of the bonds was constitutional. The
trial court at Greenville held that
the law was invalid on grounds that
IL attempted to delegate executive
powers to the board, as claimed BY
Jones and his c~o-defendant.
Depositors already have received
about 10 per cent on their money.
Under the court decision. they will
receive from 80 to 40 per cent more,
Clark said.
The bank failed in December, 1926.
