.elchoir Learned Much About Self
 From The Papers

People seem to know more about myself than I do," remarked Steven Melchoir yesterday, one of Stewards pioneers, speaking in connection with his recent trip East where he took his pet moose, and of the stories which were written about him in the various cities.
 But the story appearing in the last issue of the Alaska Weekly, published in Seattle, was the one which lead to the above remark.
 MT Melchoir denies the story from beginning to end with refer ence to his meeting people in De- troit who were interested in ob- taining a gold mine in Alaska; that of the many fine people he had the pleasure of meeting, at 10 time was the subject of mines dis cuSSed.
 Where ever he happened to be wild newspaper yarns were con- cocted about him and his alleged and fabulously rich placer mine some where on Kenai peninsula. MT. Melchoir also said that either before reaching Seattle or as soon as he got there, number of pie lures of himself and moose, mys- teriously vanished and from that time on he was confronted with the photographs published in the newspapers across the continent; and generally on the front page.
 He brought back with him sever al splendid photographs of the Zoo where now the Alaska moose is roaming.

CAUGHT
IN STEEL TRAP
-
BY JOE GLENN

Joe Glenn, 13 year old son of Mr..
and Mrs. william Glenn, of 1902
Eleventh street, has new honor as
the result ora visit to High Lonesome
ranch, so miles east of Douglas, and
with he honor he also has a fine
trophy. It is a great brown eagle
which measures Sc inches from tip-to-
tip and is of a weight in proportion.
Joe set steel trap to catch some
foxes that had been killing lambs on
the ranch. 1t was SCI on the ground
and no one had thought of anything
but some sort of four footed game
stumbling into the trap. But yesterday
when he went to the trap he beheld
an angry bird waiting to greet him
waiting because that was the only
thing it could do. Two of it's toes were
in the trap and that made anything
but wait too painful to interest it. Joe
called help and the eagle was killed
and brought to the city last evening
by Joe and his parents.

Increase in Canadian Visible Sup

Prices.
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, December 18.-With the
Canadian wheat visible supply today
showing further increase of 15,313000
bushels, wheat prices here averaged a
little lower in the early dealings. Bear
ish estimates of Argentine wheat pro-
ductfon were also at hand. Opening
unchanged to ss lower Chicago wheat
afterWard held near to the initial
figures. Corn and oats were also easier.
with corn starting 1s off to 1s up, and
subsequently undergoing a moderate
general sag Provisions tilted upward.
Reports that Europe is well supplied
with cheap Argentine and Canadian
wheat gave special point today to an
nouncement of another big increase of
the Canadian wheat visible supply,
which was announced as totaling now
141 600, 900 bushels compared with 94,-
299 600 bushels year ago. Meanwhile
adyices were received that estimates of
the Argentine eXportable wheat surplus
ranged from 190,0000 600 bushels to $780,
900 900 bushels. 1t was explained that
except in a small area around Bahai
Blanca, all sections of Argentina show
very good wheat yields.
Extensive deliveries here on Decem-
Der corn contracts, as we'll as much SELL
ing of corn into store and better wealth

most parts of the corn belt, tended to
ease the corn market today. Receipts,
however, were lighter, I'll cars in Chi

rather active, and unsettled weather
was again threatening Northwest.
