Four Killed
 At Fairbanks
A. R. c. ROAD SUPERINTENDENT AND. g. WOMEN PERISH WHEN
 AUTO pL LuNGEs INTO GuLeH.
(Fairbanks News Miner. }


 Four. persons were: killed at an early hour. this; morning when the au- tomobile in which they were riding plunged off the road and rolled down a..gulch 18 miles from Fairbanks. on the Steese highway. The. dead are:
 H.-G. Haslem, 40, Alaska Road Commission superintendent for the Fairbanks district;
 Mrs. May Haslem,. 23, his wife;
 Mrs. Helen. Burmaster. 25, of Fair banks;
 Mrs~Jnlia- Warren. of Mason creek
 There were not. witnesses to. the. tragedy, which is the worst of its kind that has ever occurred in the h. terior. Reports conflict as to the time the party left the Summit Road house., where they had attended a dance. on the return trip to Fair banks, but as nearly as can be learned it was between 4:30, and 5:15> a..m., and, the accident followed with in. a few minutes of the time they. left.
 Snffocation caused the death of all the4victims, an examination made. this morning. by Dr. ]. A. Sutherland. found, and only Mrs. Haslem and Mrs Burmaster were. bruised. Wedged tightly against the ground, with the weight of the overturned car. on them,. they probably died within a few minutes after the machine had stopped rolling.
 The car was a Ford of the light de- livery type, with only one seat, and the fact that. all were crowded into this may have had, it is believed, something to do. with the accident. Haslem, who wasdriving, had just negotiatedan s curve, the sharpest on the, entire road. and was attempting to- straighten it out when it plunged down the embankment.
 The tracks made by the tires from the time the, curve was passed until the car left the road could. be. clearly seen this morning. The machine ran along the very edge for a consider able distance until the loose dirt gave way under it's weight and it rolled into the gully below. Two reasons have. been advanced for Haslegns ina bilitY to swing back into the center of. the road, neheing that the steer in. ggear may have been ds1ective, and the. other that with so. many in the seat he lacked room and could not swing the steering. wheel far enough to; avert the accident
 At that point the hill is steep, and the car rolled about fifty fe.t before coming to rest against the stump of a-tree. It is believed that 1t. turned over twice. It was overturned when it stopped. The light top WAS crushed in, pinning the occupants ill with no hope of escape.
 The wrecked car was found shortly after 5:3O by Buster Ande. -on of the Midnight Sun Transportation Com pany. He and the two passengers who were riding. in the. stage went down the. hill to inveas gate the wreck. At first they helaed no one was in the car, but on looking further discovered one of the bsdies. They were unable to right the ar and hav- ing no ar with which to c4s.the stump hurried to the Summit From there news of the tragedy w.s telephoned to Fairbanks, and Mart.as Nelson, A. R.. c. foreman, who has a sansp near by, were notified. Men were sent duwn from his-camp immediately. and

What stranger?" asked Mrs Robin.

You're crazy" declared Mrs Robin.
You are crazy, Welcome Robin! I can
look right into that window and there

You're crazy YOURSELF" retorted
Welcome. ''He is right inside here this

Il tell you, you are crazy! There isn't
any stranger and there hasn't been
any stranger"
There is and there has been!" re-
torted Welcome, and once more began
to beat at the window. The stranger
on the inside did the same thing.
They kept it up until both were ex-
hauSted. Finally Welcome felt that he
had to go off for a little rest. He flew
over beside Mrs. Robin.
Show me that stranger" said Mrs.
Robin.
Welcome looked back at the window.
The stranger had disappeared. He
isn't there now" said he.
He hasn't been there" declared Mrs.
Robin. You can see Tor yourSeH That
from here we can look right into that
window. There was no Robin inside
while you we're pecking and beating at
that window"
There was, tool" retorted Welcome
Don't you suppose know! I was
right there"
Now, of course you have guessed what
had happened. Mrs. Robin was quite
right. There was no stranger and there
had been no stranger. Welcome Robin
had been fighting his own reflection In
the glass Of that window. The light
fell on that window in such a way
that, from a certain position. Welcome
could see his own reflection from a
short distance away, and he could see
it when he was on the window sill. But
from the place where Mrs. Robin was
sitting there was no reflection. The
light was not right to make a refiec-
ion. So, of course, she didn't see any
thing. Do you wonder that she thought
that Welcome was crazy? She was sure
of it when presently Welcome once
more flew back to that window sill and
began to fight himself. Yes, sir, she
was sure that Welcome was crazy.

Welcome few at that pane of glass
furiously. So did the stranger. They
did their utmost to get at each other
through that glass. They beat against

with their bills. Welcome could never
hear the other hit the glass, because
he always hit 1t just when Welcome did.
Mrs. Robin, returning to the nest
she was building, discovered Welcome

window sill Of Farmer Browns house.
What are you doing?" she called
sharply.

Although the sugar cane acreage OF

acre, the new stock can be counted
upon to average close to Is tons an
acre and even 40 tons under favorable
growing conditions. Each ton of the
new cane will give TO pounds more OF
