FORESTRY SERVICE MAKES
 PARK IMPROVEMENTS

The beautiful weather of the past weeks has made picnics decidedly popular and both cars and boats have taken out big parties each Sunday to nearby or more distant beaches as fancy dictates.
 The picnic grounds at Wrangell Park which were given much need ed improvements by the Forestry Department last summer are very popular and more than one hundred fifty persons have already regis tered at the park since the first of the year, During the past week, Forest Ranger c. M. Archbold has been having water piped to the park and another fireplace added and that these additional comforts will be appreciated by the outdoor loving public goes without saying.

SkeihOrne Party
 ProspectOrs Bound
 Stikine River Area

Arthur Skelhorne, representing the Mining Corporation of Canada. arrived on the Princess Louise Sun day morning with six prospectors. The party left on the Hazel B No. 2 Monday afternoon to spend the season prospecting in the Stikine River area.
 MT. Skelhorne said he has known Dr. Kerr of the Geological Survey of Canada, for a long time and knows that he has the reputation of being a very able, conservative geologist. It was his enthusiastic reports to the Canadian government concerning the geological formation of the Stikine influenced the Min ing Corporation of Canada to un- dertake a prospecting program in that area this season.
 'I purposely enlisted prospectors from the Portland Canal district" said MT. Skelhorne, 'in order. to have men who are accustomed to prospecting under practically the same geological conditions as pre- vail in the Portland Canal district. All the men I have enlisted but one are from Portland Canal and that one is already on the Stikine and will join our party up the river We have very carefully gone over the maps and data which Dr. Kerr furnished to the Department of Mines and our party will spread out and prospect where we believe the chances will be the greatest for finding something. If we do find anything there will be no de- lay whatever in exploitation as shall immediately telegraph our company and they will lose no time in sending a capable geologist to make an examination.
 What we are looking for is mines and if we find anything promising we will go right ahead with the proposition.
 Two or three other concerns are sending prospectors into the Sti- kline area this season as a result of Dr. Kerr's reports and I really believe that the chances are good for some of us finding something worth while"

GAS EXPLOSION AND FIRE
 IN CLEVELAND HOSPITAL
 TAKES BIG TOLL OF LIVES

CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 15.- Ninety-three lives are known to have been lost and scores of per sons injured in a deadly explosion and fire at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital here today.
 Many of the dead were victims of poisonous gases and suffocated in agony; others are dead from burns. Most of the victims were patients who were powerless to es- cape the death they could see ap- preaching them. The death list will continue to mount through the night the doctors who are caring for the injured said.
 There were 360 patients regis tered at the clinic at the time of the explosion. A check by firemen revealed that the explosions oc- cured in x-ray films stored in the basement. Several tanks of oxygen compressed by heat let go adding to the intense flames.

WILD SHEEP RESCUED
 STORM MCKINLEY PARK

During a storm in Mckinley Ma tional Park a band of mountain sheep were driven from the slopes of the range in the vicinity of Igloo creek and strayed out into the flats. They floundered through the deep snow until completely ex- hausted and starving, without be- ing able to win back to the wind swept range.
 They undoubtedly would have perished if they had not been seen by Chief Ranger Nyberg and Rang CT Myers. They picked up two rams and two ewes with lambs and carried them over drifts by dog sled to their Igloo cabin, where they set about reviving them. It was not long until they were stag gering about unsteadily on shaky legs.
 One ram revived sufficiently to chase one of the rangers through the door of the cabin and bring up with a crash against the door as 1t was hurriedly closed.
 Careful handling, however, soon made them very tame. They would eat potato peelings and oats from the rangers hands and follow them about. When they were stronger they were taken over to Sanctuary and brought into headquarters of the road commission tractors and sleds. At present they are tempor- arily quartered in one end of the barn and are putting on weight rapidly.
 The wild sheep, said to be the most shy animal in the Northland, are not bit afraid of the horses, and strangers may walk up to them and pet them without fear of a sud- den boost from the rear over the fence.
