Deer lis Rescued by
, Forest RANGERS

Trapped in a pocket in the ice on the
river near Bonner, a f~ull-grown doe
required the assistance of two forest SER
vice officials before she finally gained
her liberty.
The deer went down to the river and
either jumped or fell into the channel
cut through the ice by the current some
time ago. With sheer walls Of ice rising
IL feet in front and in back of her. she
stayed put" refusing to make any at
tempts to gain her liberty by going up
or down her small canyon to a point
where the walls we're less high.
Residents Of the neighborhood noticed
the does plight n telephoned the
headquarters OF the Missoula forest for
assistance. Assistant Supervisor Jack
Clack and Ranger w. L.. Robb responded
to h alarm, n arming themselves
with axes. ropes and shovels, made their
way to the deer's prison.
to force the deer to free herself, and by
shouting and waving their shovels n
axes, finally frightened the animal In
to flight downstream, where she came
to a low place In the ice wall. Jumping
out Of the miniature canyon. she lopcd
over the river bank into the timber.

NOYES SAYS FRIDAY
 18TH, 100000 DAY

Those who scoff at the old axiom that Friday, the 18th, is an unlucky day, will find a vigorous opposer in the person of Capt. Wallace w. Moves, head of the Moves Boat Co.,, owner of the vessels which pro- vide the regular transportation link between Hyder and Ket- chikan.
 Friday, January 18th, he lost the power boat Sunny Point, his best passenger and freight boat, and the M. V. Fairbanks, recently placed on. the local run, went shore and broke her winch.
 Coupled with this evidence, he will submit the further fact that on Friday the 18th, year ago, the Juanita, another yes sel of his fleet, piled up on a west coast shore.
 The loss of the Suny Point is ascribed to an explosion fol- lowed by fire while the vessel was engaged in towing the Rough Rider to Wards Cove, near Ketchikan, for berthing.
 Capt. Moves says that here after when Friday, the 18th, comes around he is going to lock the door, put out the fire and go to bed"

MINERAL PRODUCTION
 IN ALASKA IN 1927.

Mines in Alaska produced minerals to the value of $14,- 445,000 in 1927, as against $17,664,8O0 in 1926, according to U. S. Geological Survey es- inmates. The total value of the mineral output of Alaska since 1880 is nearly $585, 100000. The figures for 1927, which are estimates and subject to revis- ion, are taken from the Sur vey's annual report on the min eral resources of Alaska, now in preparation. The source of this mineral wealth is approxi- mately as follows:

BIG CROWD ENJOYS
 MOOSE DANCE

One of the largest dance gath erings seen here in a long per- iod attended the card party and dance given by the Moose order in Pioneer Hall Wednes- day evening in honor of U. s. Immigration Inspector David J. Mulcare and Mrs. Mulcare, who were welded recently in the south.
 A survey of the crowd when the entertainment was at it's height disclosed the presence of 65 couples, approximately half of the number being made up of Stewart residents.
 The big hall was nicely deco raced for the occasion and ex- cellent music was provided by a three-pieece orchestra.
 The card tournament devel- oped an interesting surprise with the announcement that the winner would be granted the pleasant privilege of kiss ing the bride, while the winner of the consolation prize would be entitled to similarly caress the groom.
 Robert Hutchinson was the fortunate winner of the first prize, while Mrs. Robt. Nakki claimed the second award and kissed the palpably per turbed MT. Mulcare with gusto that made the recipient while the crowd roared with mirth.

an increase in relation to pro- duction from placers, but also showed an actual increase in quantity. The decrease in gold production is therefore to be attributed to lesser production from the placers, which is ex- plained as due mainly to the extreme dryness that prevailed throughout almost the entire western and interior regions until August. The drought was so severe that dredging, which requires less water proportion ally than most other types of placer mining, was so handi- capped, that several dredges did not operate until late in the summer. The shortage of water appears to have been most seriously felt in the placer camps on Seward Peninsula. Gold production from that re- zion is estimated to have been nearly $50O,00O less than in 1926. Obviously this decrease is merely an unfortunate tenn porarX incident.
 Several new placer-mining en- terprises that will become pro- ductive during 1928 were in progress during the year. The largest and most significant of these is that of the Fairbanks Exploration Co.,, in the Fair banks region, which has been busy for several years in ex- tensive preparation for dred- ing. operations in the valleys of Goldstream and Chatanika rivers and their tributaries. AL though it will still be several years before this project is in full operation, parts of it have now progressed to a stage that pits in which to construct the first two of the dredges have been prepared, and materials for these two boats have been landed in Alaska and will be assembled during the winter. The long ditches and siphons which are being built to bring water to the ground have been nearly completed, and large areas have been thawed so as Ito be in condition for dredging.

 Coming closer to home, MT. Rolston referred to the long ex- isting amity between Canada and the United States and as- serted that the two nations want Freedom, Justice, Serv- ice and Federation. "The Unit ed States with her three million square miles of territory and Canada with her vast area could and should become the great civilizing influence of the world" he declared.
 Concluding his splendid ef- fort, MT.

Among the Alaska gold lode mines the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Co.'S property, in the Juneau region of southeastern Alaska, continued to be far the largest producer. This company mined and milled ore on an even larger scale than heretofore, maintaining thru out the year an average daily output of ore mined and tram
 The only other place in Alas ka where drilling for oil is in progress is in the Matanuska Valley few miles west of Chickaloon, where the Peter son Oil Associations we'll has now reached a depth of 865 feet.
 Alaska also produced during 1927 some lead, marble, tin, platinum, and quicksilver. Most of the lead comes from the gold ores of the Alaska Juneau mine, but an increasing quantity is recovered from the silver-lead ores of the Hyder district. Although the amount of lead produced in 1927 show ed a marked increase in quanti- ty, the lesser price received for it made the value only a little more than in 1926. The output of marble came entirely from quarries at Tokeen, on Prince of Wales Island.
 The tin ore was derived prin- cipally from placers near York, in Seward Peninsula, but small amounts were also recovered from placers>in the Hot Springs district of the Yukon-Tanana region. The production of platinum metals was small and came almost entirely as a by-product from placer-gold mining operations in the Dime Creek district of Seward Penin- sula. Only a small quantity of quicksilver ore was mined in 1927, and all of it came from lodes in the central part of the Kuskokwim Valley.

 Following the excellent re

 land introduced MT. Rolston,
 who discussed British-Ameri- can relationships, in addition to touching upon a wide range of topics of both international and domestic character bear ing upon his subject. During the course of his remarks MT. Rolston displayed a wide famil- iarity with world politics and problems, in addition to keen insight regarding the underly- ing causes of present day con- ditions in America and Europe.
 He declared that the interests of Great Britain and the Unit ed States are identical. The two great nations have the same ideals, speak the same lang uage and are indefatiguabIy struggling toward the same goal. Similarity also exists be- tween their various foreign re- lations, as we'll as in their own national problems. The British, he said, are seeking peace, har- mony and tolerance and above all harmony. He deplored the the anti British propaganda of a certain portion of the Amer ican press and declared that recent attempts of these jour- nals to create antagonisms by claims that Britain is not ad- herring to the terms of the dis treaty are untrue. In of his contention, MT. Rolston read a news dispatch wherein Secretary Kellogg, of the U. s. State department, de- i nied certain allegations of un- fairness on the part of Britain with respect to naval arma- ments. Touching upon Britain's | desire for maintaining her sea power, the speaker declared | that such a policy was necess- ary to her existence.
