 .En route to Seward Peninsula to study and seek means to eradicate the warble fly grub from Alaska rein deer herds, Dr. J. E. Dove, entomolo- gist of the United. States bureau of biological survey, left for the lower Yukon river section a few daysaago, after a brief visit in Fairbanks. He was highly endorsed for the Alaska investigation by Paul G. Redington, chief of the bureau of biological sur vey.
 The ywarble fly problem is a very serious one to those engaged in the reindeer industry. The flies lay eggs in the skin of the deer andswhen the grubs are large enough they -burrow through the hide, scarring it and greatly decreasing its market value It is estimated that the damage now amounts to $6O0,O annually.

very few cases recalled by Dr. A. D. Haverstock in which death had come with such slight disturbing effect.
 Charles Fremont was real old timer of the North, having stamped ed to Dawson in the early Klondike days, and later followed the rush to the Fairbanks district when gold was discovered there. He was we'll ad- vanced in years and a cripple, and during the last year his strength had failed steadily, although his general health seemed to be about as usual. He made trip, downtown during the afternoon and it is thought the exer- tion of the walk hastened his end He was a life member of Anchorage Igloo, No. 15, Pioneers of Alaska.
 Ailing oldtimers of the Pioneers Home at Sitka have a new physician to diagnose their ills, Dr. Hugh G. Nicholson of Charleston, w. Va, hav- ing succeeded Dr. R. w. Miller >as staff physician at the Home. Dr. Nicholson will also act in that capac- ity for the Sheldon Jackson school and will be acting assistant surgeon for the United States public health service. He is a graduate of the Uni versity of Virginia and is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
 Magnus Stevenson, employe of the Shepard Point Packing Company, in charge of fishing boat No. 12, was seriously injured a few days ago in an explosion that completely wrecked the boat and threw him and his part ner, Carl Louis Odland, into the water, from where they were rescued by other fishermen and rushed to town, the Cordova Times reports. The explosion occurred, according to Stevenson, early in the morning, when he got up to build fire in the galley stove to prepare breakfast. He placed paper and kindling in the stove and the nstruck a match. Immediate ly there waas a terrific explosion, which threw hi mviolently into the air and down into the water. His arms up to his elbows were badly scared and sblistered, while his face
 
 was left a mass of burns.
 Severson's companion also was blown out of the boat and into the air, but he received no injury.
 Although the cause of the explo- sion could mot be learned definitely, due to the complete destruction of the boat, it is thought that leak in the gasoline tank permitted some of 4the fuel to escape and that the fumes collected in the galley during the night. This highly-explosive mixture of air and gasoline is then believed to have been set off by the match .Sev- erson struck, and to have reached the main gasoline supply

That Jim Burroughs, veteran in- ttemor mining man and formerly lhas been missing since April 28 was tthe word brought out fro mthe Kan Itishna t0 Fairbanks few days ago, :says the News-Miner. The word Ibroughtout by Mr. Howell was the first received there concerning the soldtimer's disappearance, and al- though search measures were at once instituted, hope of finding him alive lis declared to be slight.
 A thorough search of the district in which he disappeared was made by Pilot A. A. Bennett in flight made ito the head of theTnklat with Mr. Roth the flier and MT. Howell were .on the lookout constantly for the missing man, but saw no trace of lhim.
 Burroughs left Knights roadhouse ton April 2S with a team of IA dogs ;and 700 pounds of freight, headed for fhis mining propert yon Little Moose ,creek, a tributary of the Clearwater 1rixer. He has not been seen since, seither at the creek or any point point lbetween there and the roadhouse.
 Burroughs was an experienced 1musher and familiar with the coun- ttry, but it is very possible, it was .said, that he perished when the river ice, weakened by the warming rays of tthe sun, gave way beneath the weight sof the loaded sled
 A heart attack which came on as Inc was eating his supper caused the tdeath fe wdays ago of Charles Ere mont, we'll known Alaska pioneer. During recent years he had lived at Anchorage, where death came to him, lbut prior to his residence there had lived at Dawson and Fairbanks.
 The old-timer apparently had pushed his chair back from the table in the kitchen, after completing his evening meal, and was sitting there mapping when his spirit departed, says the Anchorage Times A caller Hound him very soon afterward and summoned the authorities, and the ealdtimer was still in his chair when they arrived.

PUSH OLD AGE Bill
Eagles Plan Vigorous Effort
for Pension Measure.

Contending that the old and
needy may be cared for in their
homes at less expense than in the
poorhouse, the Fraternal Order Of
Eagles will make a vigorous effort to
induce the Indiana general assembly
to enact an old age pension bill in
the coming session.
Provisions of the measure were
announced today by Otto P. Deluse
of Indianapolis. chairman of the or
der's legislative committee. The bill
takes the form of an enabling act to
permit counties to establish the
pension system only after ratifica-
ton by the voters at a referendum
election.
Persons who have attained the age
of 65, who have been residents of the
county fifteen years and who have
an income of less than $25 would
be eligible to d pension, administered
by the probate court.
Twenty-Five dollars monthly would
be the maximum pension to any
person. Applicants for a pension
who own property would be required
to assign their property to the
county.
Senator James j. Nejdl of Whiting
robably will introduce the bill He
introduced one of a similar nature
two years ago. 1t passed the senate

Slotted Wing Aids Filler

The slotted wing has been found
particularly useful in landing on
water. according to Captain w. r.
Maxwell, director of provincial avn
alton for ontario. Sixteen De Hayi-
land Moths have been fitted with
this device and used with success
in the forest service. patrols over
the country where landing fields are
scarce and lakes are plentiful.
1t is well known among fliers that
a pilot finds it almost impossible to
Judge his distance when coming
down for landing on dead calm
water, unless there is a ripple or
something else to serve as a guide.
He is apt, under such circum-
stances, to dive into the water or to
make a pancake" landing from too
great height. with resulting dam
age to the plane and danger to
himself.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-W. c. Du-
rant. who paid $4,000 for a plan
to enforce prohibition, and w. r.
Hearst, who has offered $4,000 for
plan to repeal it. sought to get
together today on the common
ground Of temperance.
Durant sent a telegram to Hearst
congratulating him upon this con-
tribution of yours to the question:
Are the American people ready to
give up and admit the failure of this
(prollibition, the greatest expert
nent ever undertaken by free peo-
ple?"
Telegram to Hearst
Durants telegram, however, did
not express perfect accord with
Hearts views.
81 cannot believe" Durant said,

TO which Hearst replied: we are
not so far apart as might seem at
first glance. 1911 can assume, 7
think. that we both are equally
sincerely interested in the cause of
temperance and the only difference
between us is a difference of opinion
as to what is the best means Of pro-
noting that cause.
The prize offered by Durant was
woi by Major Chester P. Mills, for
naer prohibition administrator of the
New York district
Hearst has not yet announced
rules for the submission Of proposals
in his contest.
Closing OF Saloons
"You apparently believe that pro-
hibition is an intelligent and prac-
ticable effort to promote temper
ance,' Hearst's telegram said. Il
do not deny the truth that saloons
have been closed, but saloons were
beng closed before prohibition was
enacted. being closed through edu-
cation of the public, through a high
rate Of excise taxation, through To-
cal option, and through direct legiS-
lation.
ANY sacrifice might be justified
to further a great cause; but pro-
hibition has not furthered the cause.
1t has created intolerable criminal
conditions and intolerable political
conditions. Therefore, I think the
time has come to call for another
plan, a more practicable plan, which
will advance the cause of temper
ance.''
