FAMOUS CHTCHAGOFF MINE ONCE MORE
 IN PRODUCTION

Recent reports from the Jun eau section announce that the famous Chichagoff mine on the west coast of Chichagoff Island, about 60 miles from Sitka, is again in production. Milling operations were resum- ed October Is, with modern ized 150-ton mill crushing the ore. The mill is in two units of 20 and 10 ton stamp batteries respectively. Power is obtain ed from a hydro-electric plant at Rust Lake, AZ miles from the mine. The mill and mine equipment includes a 2OO-ton counter current decantation cy- hide plant for treating the tailings, a Ledgerwood air hoist and three Ingersoll-Rand compressors.
 The mill started up on ore ex- tracted during development work and, although it was about half waste, returned $2O per ton. The discovery of a new shear zone paralelling the original Chichagoff shear and about 600 feet north has ere ated an entirely new outlook for the famous old property, which has already produced over 121s millions in gold and silver and paid over $6, 6,000,00O in dividends.
 The mine is now controlled by the Chichagoff Mines, Ltd, of which c. A. Banks, of the B. c. Silver company, is presi- dent. The company is a Brit ish Columbia corporation and capitalized at $2,00O,0 900, with an equal number of shares al $1 par value. One million shares were paid for the prop, erty. Of the remaining million shares, 6OO,O0O were issued for sale, leaving $40O,00O in the treasury.

SPECIAL U. s. COMMIS.
 SIONER NAMED
 FOR DISTRICT

U. s. Commissioner w. c. Arnold and Mrs. Arnold will leave Monday for the South to spend the holidays with rela- tives in the States.
 During the absence of Judge Arnold, B. B. Smith, former U. s. Commissioner in the Idit- arod district, will officiate as district court commissioner for this district under a special commission issued by Judge E. Coke Hill during the recent term of the district court at Ketchikan.
 As a result of the order, the Hyder district will actually have two U. s. Commissioners after December 10, the date on which Judge Smiths com- mission becomes effective, un- til Judge Arnold's return about the middle of January.

Mar tin, acting as Commissioners clerk.

ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TREE COMMITTEES
 ARE NAMED

Active preparations for the annual Community Christmas Tree were launched at a pub lie meeting held in Chamber of Commerce Hall Tuesday evening in response to a call by the Moose Lodge, sponsor of the beautiful custom since the lodge was first formed.
 The meeting was attended by a considerable number who are interested in making the kiddies happy on childhood's greatest day and resulted in the organization of the neces- sary committees to handle the arrangements.

 In accordance with the usual custom the meeting selected only the chairmen of the vari- ous committees, to whom will be left the selection and ap- pointment of additional com mittee members.

 J. A. Martin, finance commit tee; Mrs. A. J. Mayer, pur- chasing committee; Mrs. Wm. Mcdonnell, tree and decorat- ion committee; Miss Geraldine Torrance, entertainment com mittee.
 Holger Johnson was also ap- pointed a special committee man to secure suitable Christ mas tree. The Christmas exer- cises will be held in Pioneer Hall as usual.
 All who wish to assist in mak- ing the little folks of the com munity happy on Christmas may do so by offering a con- tribution to the expenses of the undertaking, either to mem- bers of the committee direct or by placing them in the Christ mas boxes in most of the busi- ness houses.

No lives were lost in the accident, the passengers, crew and the mail being land ed in safety.
 The vessel struck a rock on the south coast of St. Phillips Island, later slipping off the rock and drifting across Es- quibel Gulf, to the Hecata shore where she sank about three hours after the crash.

Engine trouble developing while the vessel was enroute from Ketchikan to Hyder, forced the Moves Boat Go. motorship Taku II to return to Ketchikan. As a result of the accident the weekly mail from the First City was brought ov- 1T Wednesday night by the City of Anacortes.
 The Taku II is said to have
 tarted to make the trip here owing to the regular mail ship Fairbanks being tied up as a 'esult of another accident oc- curing while the latter vessel vas returning to Ketchikan rom this port last week.

BEAVER TO BE
 PROTECTED 1929

The Alaska Game Commis- sion has decreed that no beav- er are to be taken in Alaska turing the year 1929, the ob- feet being to permit the ani- nals to propagate with the view of permitting of increase, he inroads on the beaver tribe during the present year hav- ing been very heavy.

FORMER LOCAL
 GIRL WEDDED

Miss Eleanor Fisher, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Frank Fisher of Hyder, and herself a former local resident, became the bride of MT. Paul Schwab, ris- ing young business man of Mt. Angel, Oregon, on November 14th.
 MT. Fisher, who attended the wedding with Mrs. Fisher and their sons Leonard and Ray mond, returned Monday night bringing the following details of the nuptials, which will be of much interest to the many local friends of the charming young lady and her family.
 The wedding took place at St. Mary's Church, Mt. Angel, at 8:15 a. m., Rev. Fr. Domino officiating. The church was beautifully decorated with white and yellow chrysanthe- mums and palms. Streamers of the same colors centered upon large white bell were joined with an archway which led the way to the altar. During the nuptial high mass attend ing the ceremony Miss Clara Keber sang the Ave Maria.
 The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her fath- CT, was beautiful in a gown of white satin with an overskirt of silk lace ruffles, trimmed with pearl trimmings from the wedding dress worn by her mother. Her full length veil of silk tulle appliqued with taf- feta flowers, was arranged in cap effect and held in place with orange blossoms. She car ried a bouquet of pale yellow rosebuds and lilies of the val ley. Miss Rose Schwab, sister of the groom, was bridesmaid and Miss Leona Nickel, a cous- in of the bride, was maid of honor.

WORK CONTINUING ON
 HYDER-BUTTE PROPERTY

The Hyder-Butte Mining Co.,, having failed to complete its option contract requiring the driving of 600 feet of tunnel by December l on the Butte Group near 9-Mile, the prop erty has reverted to the origin al owners, c. w. Peterson, Nils Olsen and Cora Tollefson, ac- cording to MT. Peterson. De- velopment work on the group is being continued by the own CTS with MT. Peterson in charge. A crew of two men is employed at present and plans are underway to further in- crease the number of men em- ployed in the near future.
 Although forfeiting the op- ton by reason of it's failure to perform the work required, the company, of which J. c. Boulton, of Seattle, is presi dent, is said to be very much interested in the property and is endeavoring to secure a re- newal of the bond.
 So far as can be learned To cally, the inability of the com pany to complete the tunne! was due largely to inadequate financing, combined with con siderable delay in getting the work under way last spring According to MT. Peterson bad mine management anC failure to recognize the true position of the ore bodies also played an appreciable part il the failure of the company ir fulfilling its contract. In sub, stantiation of this contention MT. Peterson says the operat ions now under way indicate that the drift tunnel, project ed to follow the main vein which is traaeble on the sur, face for more than 150O feet was permitted to run entirely off the ore, apparently to distance of 25 feet or more. Since taking over the property the owners have turned the tunnel back toward the strike of the vein and are said by MT Peterson to be already en, countering fine ore severa yards from the place where the vein is believed to run.
 During the short period in which operations were main tained, the company extended the tunnel about 260 feet, en- countering from 10 inches to upward of two feet of high grade galena over large part of it's course, together with considerable ore of good mill ing grade. In addition to es, tablishing a fine camp, the company also installed a 500, foot tramway for handling supplies and expended a con siderable sum for power ano mine equipment, including compressor, an ore car and a large quantity of rails, drill steel and other supplies.
