FIRST STEAMSHIP MAIL
 DELIVERED TO NUKA
 BAY ISLAND BY STARR

The first steamship has delivered mail to Nuka Island!
 There have been many exciting days in Mrs. Sather's six years resi- dency on Nuka Island, pertaining to good luck and hard luck, such as shipwrecks, the arrival of the sea- plane from Seward, R. H. Merrill, pilot; visit from Mrs. c. Ristine from Cordova, as she was the only lady Mrs Sather saw in three years; visits from halibut schooners in the most fearful storms coming for slel- ter, but nothing will be more care fully recorded in Mrs. Sather's log book than the arrival of the Steamer Starr on February IA, in command of Alaska's most capable and veteran skipper, Captain o. A. Johansen.
 It was a beautiful sight to see the big ship glide down through the channel, Mrs. Sather informs The Gateway. When Mr and Mrs Saith CT heard the long whistles, MT. Saith CT went down to his faithful old Rolfe and out they went to meet the Starr and show her the harbor And how proud Frank, Mrs Sather's son, was when he came from the Starr He said, Mother, I have the honor of receiving the first letter by steam ship on Nuka Island!"
 Mrs. Sather writes they were all so excited that they had 10 time to show their real appreciation to Cap tain Johansen.
 When Mrs. Sather wrote "the faith ful old Rolfe," she meant just that, for it was MT. Sather and the Rolfe that have weathered out these years, winter and summer, helping all, pros pectors and miners at all times, pay or no pay. He delivered the mail to as many as nine different camps and hto 29 persons for nothing. Mrs. Saith CT hopes that some day soon Nuka Pay may have a Post Office.

DAVIS SAYS HE IS

Sends Message to N. Y. Governor
 Extending Congratulations

Houston. June c9 LP-John W. Davis, retiring titular head of the democratic party by virtue of his nomination in 1924, has sent a mes sage of congratulation to his suc- cessor, Governor Al Smith, pledging his personal support. MT. Davis. who is a delegate at large from New York. requested the Associated Press to deliver his mes- sage to the governor at Albany. It follows:
 Tn the hope that. I may be. if not the first, at least among the first to congratulate yourself and the party on your nomination, I send you this message direct from the con- vention hall"
 You stand today the chosen leader of great party ready to be called to the service of the nation. You carry the banner of honesty in government, of equality of right and opportunity for all men and of that righteousness In word and deed alone which can make a man or na- ton great
 Your career as public servant. no less than your character as a man and a citizen is warrant to the country that you will more than meet this great responsibility
 For any service can render your campaign I am at your com mand.

The Limnoria re- sembles the woodlouse in appear ance. and destroys timber by gnaw- ing interlacing, branching burrows just beneath the surface. When the outer layer is washed away, a new surface is opened to attack and the work of pairing down the structure proceeds.
 The molluska- however, are bi- valves distantly related to the clam, the valves of their shells function ing as highly specialized boring mechanism. Their presence is more difficult to detect than that of the Limnoria. since they enter the tm- Der as minute individuals and dig burrows in which they grow, but never enlarge the entrance holes.

WORMS THAT HARM
 SHIPS CONQUERED
Science Finds Way to Eradicate
 These Pests

Washington. June 23 R-lf the ship builders of King Philip had known as much about marine borers in 1886 as the chemical warfare service of the army knows today. the story of the Spanish Armada might have been changed and the subsequent history of the world might even have flowed through different channels.
 AS the record stands, many of the 130 ships of the mighty Span ish fleet sent against England in 1888 went down in storm off the coast, and it is known now that this probably was due to the worm eaten condition of the hulls. More ships have been sunk by these in- sldious borers than by all the guns of all the navies. the dikes of Hol- land at times have been so weak ened by the creatures that whole sections have given away, and nll- lions of dollars of damage to Wharves have been caused by their attacks on the wooden pillng.
  pounds and mixtures have been de Neloped which stop their activities, the most effective of which is a derlvative of Lewisite. one of the deadliest of gases developed dur ing the World war. Mixed with creosote and used to impregnate wood exposed to attack, this chlor- Ninylarsenious oxide has been found to halt the borers even after they have been given time to attain full growth and strength while riddlinK untreated strips attached to the test plhng. Other organic compounds Of arsenic. mercury and copper also have proved effective. when applied Tn the same way.
 The investigation which has led 70 these discoveries. and is still in progress. was undertaken some years ago, after the borers had de- stroyed every timber structure in San Pablo Bay and Carquiney Straits. in San Francisco harbor. within four years after they began their attack, in 1917. More than 100 toxic chemical compounds have been tried. Creosotins the timber, meanwhile, has been the most sat isfactory method of repellins the borers, being effective for at least IS years. but the compounds which have proved satisfactory during the experiments have been shown to be 2S to so times more toxic,
 The creatures are of several types, including crustacea. repre-

SCIENTISTS HAVE
 STRANGE TIMES
See Unusual Sights in Their
 Various Work

Washington, June o9 P@Cnusual experiences as we'll as strange facts fall to the lot of far seeking sci -n- lists.
 Glimpses of such life are given in letters received by Dr. c. G. Abbot Of the Smithsonian Institution. from the solar radiation observatory set up on Mount Brukkaros. in South West Africa. with the cooperation of the National Geographic society.
 w. H. Hoover. the director, and his assistant, r. A. Greeley. have lived on the top of this 2,0O0 foot mountain since 1926. making daily measureme nts of the intensity of the suns rays. on which all life de- pends. Their nearest neighbors are Hottentots. 14 miles down the moun- tain. and keetmanshoop is 60 miles away.
 "We have just discovered" says ono letter, that we have some of the large lizards on Mount Brukka- ros. One native boy killed on few days ago which was four feet long. He said he had seen others which were very much larger. We shall try to catch one of the large ones and send the skin to you for the Smith, sonian. as I understand the large lizards are rather rare now"
 What would be a rather uninter- estng and only slightly irritating accident Tn thickly populated sec ton IS greatly magnlfied in such an isolated region of almost endless sunshine.
 We have been having plenty Of experience in motor travel in this country Director Hoover relates A short time ago I was returning home with a load Of provisions. and just as I arrived in the middle of the Fish river tdry sand except after heavy rains) one of the axles broke
 Well. the Fish river IS 40 miles from Keetmanshoop and 20 miles from the mountain. Our native boy was with me. so I sent a note to Fred, and he telephone 10 Keetman- ehoop for an axle. One arrived after day and half. In the meantime I canlped in the middle of the river Not a place l would choose for picnic with the temperature about 100 degrees and a sand storm most Of the day"
