AEAD THIS FIRST:
Byrd and Larry Browning had
been married only a short time. II
had been love at first sight between
q nan who wanted life to move
swiftly and exeitingly and a girl of
golden beauty, simply brought up in
a small town, who expected TO settle
down and have a home and children.
There were many things that
threatened their happiness right
fro mthe beginning: Larry's part
nership with un~scrupulous Jack
Duncan in a speculative venture,
floating the stock of the Builders
Supply company. Larry's continual
loans from Byrd's father. who was
president of a bank in J~acksonville;
the succession of parties with a fast
moving crowd. consisting of Tiny
and Fred Oberman. Jack and India
Campbell. a former sweetheart Of
Larry's; Larry's growing extrava-
gance, his refusal 70 break off his
friendship with India. lastly. their
increasing number of ouarrels over
liquor, bills. card games, over all
sorts of differences.

week with them. Before they left,

SAYS BEARS ARE GIFTED
 WITH A CANNY FORESIGHT

Bears which are gifted with :. q carfny foresight, as far as their food serfse is involved, inhabit Excursion Inlet, recently. declared J. E. Will iams, of the. United States Forestry Service, as reported ir the Valdez Miner. In fact, he regards the Excur- sion Inlet variety as a sort of super bear. As nroof of their superiority over the ordinaryrun of bruin tribes, he cites the habit they have of estab- fishing cold stoage caches, laying away feed in the late fall months, which. they use in the early spring, just after they come out of their hi- oernating quarters. Several of these caches were discovered recently by Mir. Wilhams.while on a survey of timber in the Inlet. They were full of frozen salmon and some of them had been visited hy, ,.hair bear owners. Apparently the bears raid the streams late. in the fall, taking, there from many ef the dog salmon of the latest run of the year These they pile in heaps back from the streams, where they freeze and are then cov- srau By the winter snows. The fish, MT: Williams said, were found to be remarkably we'll preserved. While no nedrs were actually. seen removing the lsh, the evidence. that they had visitedtsome of, ths9 caches this spring we're unmistakable.
 Mrs. Gahe .Sather, of Petersburg, recently went. hiking the. hills just beyond Point Frederj having for company d.. little. dol Hearing 8 erackling of twigs juss ,elow her, she stopped and, thinking y was her dog, called to him. To make sure it was the dog she very carefully scanned the underbfush,- and not more than 50 feet below her she saw big brown hear. He, came bounding up the hill after her, set she took C. negocd aim to the left of" the white spot on it's breast and let drive from her trusty gun. MT. Bruin dropped dead in his tracks. When Gabe and Mrs. Sather skinned and stretched him he was II feet long and feet wide. They took pains to measure the foot tracks and found it just 12 inches across.

STAGGERING SUMS OF
 BANK CAPITAL FINANCES
 WALL STREET OPERATIONS

NEW YORK.-Nearly twoscore of banks, located within a radius of three blocks of the New York Stock Exchange, aid in financing the heavy trading in securities.
 Their capital exceeds $5OO,O00, ,0OO, their deposits 100000, and they probably represent the greatest con- centration of wealth in the world.
 Wall Street has need of their vast resources, for the Street is beginning to talk in terms of billions. With brokers loans approaching a $5,000,- 0OO,OOO total, $12,O0O,0 ,080, ,OOO bond is- sues listed in the market, and daily sales of stock and bonds'in the. organ ized markets alone approximating $425, ,0O0, ,00O, millions have lost some what in significance
 It is only in recent years that sdch immense sums have been, accn,nu-' lated. The largest of the banks, the National City, capitalized at 800, ,0O0,- 900, ha 'aa capital of only $1 1,00O,00O,. with deposits above S1,275 5,0eO,OO in 1901. Chase NationM, capitalized at $60, 100000, and Guaranty Trust, with a capitaF of s46,QOO,O0O, whose deposits approximate $750,0O0, 600 each, have shown almost as remark able growth. Banks with capital ranging from S10,0O0,0Oe to $3O,OOO,- 900 and deposits of $500, 100000 up are numerous.
 :. Many of the banks have subsid- iaries doing a lucrative business in underwriting and distributing securi- ties, the capital of the subsidiary often comparing favorably with that of the parent hank. Frequently the income of the subsidiary is sufficient to pay dividends for the bank, thus releasing for business use still additional sums.
 If, upon some almaSt >inconceivable occasion, the banks and their sub, sidiaries should be unable to accom- modate the demande for funds, bor- rowers have only to step just over the block radius and draw upon the SETS, 100000 reserve of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. About half this sum is kept .on hand in the form of gold and gold certificates in vaults of the bank or the United States Sub Treasury.
 Despite the. growth, in individual resources of these institutions, their number is increasing in the area sur rounding the Stock Exchange. Their. loans to any one, borrower are limited by law to 10 per centsof their avail able resources, and ..as the borrowers have increased as rapidly as the bor- rowings, there appears to be plenty of business for all and for the addi- tional institutions to. come. This is true especially since the legal list of investments for banks. has been ex- tended and banks have become part ners in industries as we'll as in their own particular field, .
 The potentiality of such sum as the $8,OOO, 100000 represented by. de. posits in these few banks rather taxes comprehension. Reduced to cash, the deposits would pay off the total national debt of. every Central and South American republic and have nearly enough to perform the same service for Austria, Bulgaria, Denmark, Esthonia. Finland. Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Sweden and. SMitzerlAnd..s

 SCRIBED BY4OLDTIMER

Having spent twenty years of his life in the great Panama valley, c. F. Cries. who departed on the steamship Aleutian for the States, certainly should an authority of that im- mense region. When approached by the Gateway MT. Griess began talking about the wonderful Kantishna dis trict. His remarks. follow:s
 The Kantishna river, the principal stream of this tributary valley, gath CTS the waters of the two great peaks, Mount McKinley.am -Foraker, which rise above thesAlask arrange at this point. The valley.is but a small part of the district, however, which is on an average of some 30 miles in width and nearly 250.miles long. The bottom lands are very fertile and with fairly heavy growth of tim Der. Among this is considerable birch and spruce for mill purposes and heavy growths of cottonwood; which should make good pulp.
 The gentle slopes of this valley have, with it's. lakes and warm springs, always been favorite breeding ground for moose and bear and also for forest birds-native as we'll as migratory.
 Here the mallard duck can be seen in his winter home, in spite of all naturalists who would deny him the, privilege of whitening in Alaska. He, takes his exercise in the air and. waxes mighty upon diet of fish and, water grass; so> mighty that, should he lack a mate come spring time, the decree of divorce which he hands to some tourist drake is most violent and leaves him sadder, wiser and sim gle again.
 Vegetables of the kind that grow in the North trrive and yield wonder fully in this valley, and the yearly waste of the wild fruits, are sad to; behold; the abundance is nnbehevr abie.
 The placer of the Kantisi1na was; lrst struck by Benson and Benbenick in 1904, and while never very ricla they have produced many a gruh-- stake with enough to spare for the burning of many bright lights," which would have burned low at an earlier date but for them.~ r The hope for this section as fu- ture mining camp is reasonable trans portation-transportation that dou- bles and triples the miners outfit be- fore it reaches his cache will do but little to develop a lamp, regardless of: it's promise.
 The antimony property in this country is. notable. One of the big gest deposits known, which is owned or controlled by w. R. Taylor, is now by way of being sold to an operating company in the Fairbanks district.
 I. B. Quigley, by long years of per- sistent work, has now reached. the point where reasonable, priced transportation for his orefwilt,, with out a doubt, bring in the largest mine in the Interior.
