HENLEY HUNTER HEADS
 PARTY OF SPORSTMEN
 DOWN MIG KENZIE RTVEE

Albert Dease, Cassiar guide and hunter, passed through Wrangell this week enroute to Prince Rupert and Edmonton where he will join a party of sportsmen headed by Fen ley Hunter, of Flushing, New York, bound down the Mackenzie River to Fort Simpson.
 Fenley Hunter is a sportsman of national repute. He has made two trips into the Cassiar for big game and a few years ago he headed an ex- ploring party into the Francis Lake country at the head of the Liard in search of a rare species of white sheep the reports of which Indians had brought to Liard Post. Hunter failed to locate any of these prized specimens, but he was impressed by the grandeur and vastness of this un- charted hinterland and resolved to return and explore 1t.
 Six miles above Liard Post he found Dr. Dawson's stake marking the sixtieth parallel of latitude and the southern boundary of Yukon Ter ritory. He took this stake as sou venir, setting another up in it's place. When he passes the spot on his voyage up the Liard this summer he will stop and erect little bronze monument dedicated to the great Canadian geologist.
 At Fort Simpson the party will leave the steamer and take to canoes powered by outboard motors. They will proceed up the Liard, portaging the rapids and canyons, following the old Hudson's Bay brigade route to old Fort Francis, on Francis Lake. At this point a short portage across a chain of lakes affords a passage to the headwaters of the Pelly. The party will continue down the Pelly to it's confluence with the Yukon thence up the Yukon to Whitehorse and out by Skagway.

Capt. PendletOn Will Operate
 This Season

Among the arrivals on the Prin- cess Alice Tuesday morning was Capt. George W. PendIeton. president of the Pendleton Gold Mining Cor poration. The affairs of this eorpor- ation have been in litigation for some time, but Captain pendIeton has won out after a legal battle eoY- ering a period of more chan two years.
 Captain Pendleton brought several men north with him and they all left on the Hazel B No. 1 this morn ing en route to the property of the company which is located on Me Danes creek, about IFS miles north east Of Telegraph Creek.
 The plant has been lying idle for some time and a certain amount of work will have to be done before starting up. However, it is confi- dently expected that the company will be able to get in from 5 to 75 days of production this season.
 Owing to the peculiar conditions obtaining on MeDames creek the Pendleton property is neither dredging nor a hydraulic proposi- ton. There are too many small boulders for dredging and the eoun- try is too flat for hydraulieklng. The property will, therefore. be worked by a boom drag line scraper with boom working on much the same principle as a steam shovel.
 From the results obtained during the short time that the plant was op- erated three years ago Captain Pen dleton estimates that the ground will average at least $1O to the yard.

KINGS BAY-A west wind was blowing up a storm here last night and if it continues two or three days, conditions will be terrible for the castaways of the dirigible Italia, ma rooned on the ice off the east coast of the archipelago. If they can reach the vicinity of Rips Bay they will find a small shelter hut, but if the ice is driven out of the lee of North east Land, they may be carried to- wards Franz Josef Land and into the open sea.
 Several rescue expeditions were heinz prepared here last night to at tempt reaching Gen. Umberto Mobile and the remnants of his crew who were understood to be making thelr way slowly across the ice after being dumped aground when the gondola of their dirigible was torn from the aircraft.
 Nothing was known of the rate that befell the men who were carried away by the drifting bag.
