When the Effie E. Morrisey was in the Arctic, the party stopped at an Eskimo village to pick up a couple of men to assist the Morrisey's crew with their walrus hunting. They found that quite a num- Der of the hunters had Irish names. This is accounted for by the fact that in the early days the whalers picked up men for the hunting, and, not knowing the proper names, called one man Murphy, anoth- CT O'Reilly, and another some common Irish name. These names they kept and today are very proud of them.

Thirty thousand seals were killed on the Pribilofs this season, an increase of 5000 over last year. Sealing is con- trolled by the government, from the time the animals are slaughtered until the pelts are dyed and tanned and sold at auction.
 The seal herds come to the Pribilofs to breed and remain only during the summer. While they travel northward in herds they make their departure one by one. The youngest animals travel farthest during the win ter, some of them going to California waters and even more southerly points, depend ing largely on the feed. The old males remain closer to the breeding grounds.
 Since the government assum- ed charge in 1912 the herd has grown from 25O,O0O to 90O,000. Only the three year old bachelors" are killed and as they cengregate in an area by themselves, breeding is not interfered with. Some of the three-year-olds are branded and these are left for breeding purposes, the remainder being slaughtered.

MINING ACCIDENT
 RATE FALLS AWAY ]

The metal-mining industry in the United States had fewer deaths and injuries from acci- dents to it's employees in 1927 than in 1926, according to study of reports from operat- ing companies just completed by the United States bureau of mines. The death rate was reduced from 3.47 per 1000 employees (3OO-day employ ees) in 1926 to 3.1O per 1000 in 1927 and the non-fatal in- jury rate was reduced from 245 to 222 per 1000 employees.
 The death rate for copper mines was substantially the same as in the previous year but the injury rate was reduc- ed 9 per cent. The iron-mak- ing industry effected a reduct- ion of IA per cent in the injury rate and 42 per cent in the death rate; the large reduct- ion in the death rate was main- ly due to the fact that the rate for the previous year was ab- normally high on account of a single disaster in which 51 lives were lost. Lead and zinc mines in the Mississippi valley states lowered their fatality rate 13 per cent and their in- jury rate slightly more than 2 per cent. A reduction of ' per cent in the injury rate was shown for mines producing gold, silver and miscellaneous metals, but the death rate for this class of mines was 20 per cent higher than in 1926. Mines producing non-metallic min erals showed reduction of 16 per cent in the fatality rate and 10 per cent in the injury rate.
 According to reports furnish ed the bureau of mines by op- erating companies, the metal mining industry in the United States in 1927 employed 119,- 699 men who worked 34,033,- 963 shifts, an average of 284 shifts per man. The number of men killed in the entire indust- ry was 352 and the number in- iured was 5,133, including all injuries disabling an en- ployee for more than the re- mainder of the day on which the accident ocurred. The num- Der of men employed and the number of man days of labor performed in 1927 were less than in 1926 when 127,823 men worked 37,16O,978 shifts. There were 430 deaths and 3O,35O non-fatal injuries in 1926.

Mining also is continuing steadily at the Gold Cord mine, under the direction of Hugo Johnson. The ore from this mine, runs very high in values and is being shipped to the Tacoma shelter as fast as it is taken from the vein, two ship ments already having been made during the season and a third shipment was being as- sembled at late reports. It is possible that shipments will continue throughout the win ter if the ore continues to car ry good values. Permanent buildings have been erected during the season for the crew and the work will proceed without interruption through out the year, either on actual mining or development. The property is being worked by the Golden Bear Mining com pany of Los Angeles.
