HERE IS AN INVESTMENT

According to the U. s. Geological Survey and 3 score of experienced mining and private engineers the greatest known copper deposit m the world hes waiting the coming of capital to create hafdozen Ken necots This is the White River fields, lying approX- mately no miles from the terminus of the Chckaloon sour of The Alaska Railroad The ChckaOOn spur ter inmates in the heart of Alaska greatest sem anthra cite and bitnous coal fields This coal produces the very best quality of coke In addition o penetrating the coal fields the ChickaoOn spur traverses great agr cultural region in the Matanuska valley passes through the Nelchina placer fields and possibly thru prolc oil field The Alaska Railroad furnishes the final outlet to all year around ocean transportation at Seward.
 According to estimates made by skilled engineers, 1t would cost approximately $30O00 per mile to construct the link necessary to connect the White River copper fields with The Alaska Railroad at ChickalOOn. The route would follow for great distance that selected by the late Dr. Alfred Brooks chief of the Alaska division of the U S Geological Survey with view to making accessible this vast stOrehOuse of wealth 1t Dr. Brooks dream that day the Matanuska coal fields would be the opening key of this copper field by utza hOn of the hghgrade cOas for coke with which to set copper and other Alaska metals.
 Thus at glance one may the great possibilities awaiting of capital and vision and the exceptionally favorable conditions surrounding the exploitation of this field.
 Had the Federal government carried the White Riv- CT project along with The Alaska Railroad when con- strctlOn started the railroad would have been paying dividends instead of being deficit It is hardly to be expected that the government would undertake this pro- Ject at the present time but there is obstacle in the way of private capital undertaking it, and it is as ripe as plum awaiting the first the ground
 It has been argued that the Guggenhem interests would have extended their Copper River and Northwest en railroad into the region if the fields were what claimed for them In the first place it would be too ex pensve to extend this railroad and secondly to do so would bring the o. R. s N Ry within the scope of com carriers as no such franchises as was obtained for the construction of that enterprise may be had today
 ms IS one ot the many ripe investments in Alaska awaiting capital.

MIRACLE BRIDGE DEAL
 RECORDED IN ENGLAND

LONDON, Dec, IS, lP)-The odds against a deal at bridge in which each player holds one complete suit are 2,235,l97,406, ,895, ,366, ,368, ,3O1 559. .- 999 to l; but it has happened again. and for the sixth time as far as au- thentic records are concerned.
 The hands were held by four well known players in a game played at the Carlton hotel Sir Charles Sykes had the spades and naturally made a grand slam in that suit.
 The five previous cases that are regarded as authentic iii which this amazing distribution of the cards occurred were at Calcutta in 1888. at Brighton, Eng, in 1892; at the Cavendish hotel, Bedford, Eng, and in 3 game played at town in Maine in 1927; and at the United Berkeley Club, London in July of last year.

n { v RAILROAD
{: SEEN IN MD.

HAGERSTowN, Nd. Oct. II.
There is considerable speculation in
this section over the operations Of
a. corps of surveyors in the vicinity
of, Clearspring, in the western part
of Washington County.
According to reports a new route
is being surveyed for a railroad line
from Four Locks in a northeasterly
direction toward Hagerstown and
connect with the Western Maryland
Railroad north Of this city.
1t Is said by railroad officials that
such line would eliminate about
seven miles from Cherry Run, w.
Va. where the Western Maryland
has a connection with the Ralti.
more and Ohio and avoid a grade
OF about five miles between VIII.
Transport and Hagerstown. 1t Is
believed, in connection with he
operations. that the Baltimore and
Ohio Is preparing for any eventu.
ality whereby it might lose con.
troll of the Western Maryland.
In this case such a line would
enable the Baltimore and Ohio to
reach the Reading system in Penn.

Maryland tracks.

The same Scientific Principle is behind
Betholine's remarkable performance

VOUR motor works at terrific speed. Any irregu-
/ lariy OF shock, however slight, destroys its me-
chanica perfection. Smooth, continuous power is VITAL
The performance of your motor depends upon its
source of energythe fuel burning within the cylinders.
If a damaging shock were desired every time your
motor fires, it would be concentrate the fuel
energy by exploding it at the beginning Of each piston
stroke But since smooth uniform power-stroke is
necessary, the fuel energy must be controlled, and
applied evenly-progressively!
Betholne, the benzol motor fuel, is blended to pro-
duce this uniform, sweeping power Instead of expod
ng, it actually burns evenly by progressive combustion.
Instead Of jarring crash at the beginning Of each
piston stroke it developes s7ep of continuous power
The Washington times., 1929-10-17

This progressive combustion accounts for the tolo~
thru power stroke. And it is the folowthru power stroke
that explains the instantaneous starting the quicker,
smoother acceeration, the swift silent conquest of hills,
the freedom from carbon and knocks the greater mile
age and longer car-lfe that benzoLbended Betholne
gives you. Because of these advantages benzolblend
Betholine is actually cheaper per mile.
This amazing beazol is specified in all fuel for the

over the rim of the glass,
trying to bring her eyes to
focus on his face. "But
what Il the others think? ?
They"
The others thought moth
ing at all; they were in no
condition for thinking.
Dick Stuyvesant and Sam
IIanier, hiking back from
the claim and halting to re-
cover their ear, parked at
the Gold Rush as they ex-
plored the mountains afoot,
strode into the noisy room
for something to eat and
drink before resuming their
trip home.
Pegs giggle rose sbrilly,
and Dick looked at her dis
approvingly. What would
the Hodges think if they
knew that their child was
in such a place, at such an
hourand drunk I, What.
would Felicia Think
The only vacant table was
next to that which Felicia
bad left, and the two men

travelled without recogni-

Good Lord !" .muttered
Dick. Wouldn t You think

away. His eyes were
riveted upon Pegs table.

brusquely to Lanier, and
went out of the room. Ap-
prehensively, he searched
the grounds, returned to the
danee-floor and stood, un-
certainly, wondering what
he should do.
Just up the stairs that as
cended behind him, in a
closed room, Billy Blair had

well keep it up while we
still have our youth"
The Gold Rush entertains
a heterogeneous crow d;
ranchers, miners, gamblers,
men from Below the Line,
tourists, Divorces and the
younger set Of permanent
residents. Some forty miles
beyond Reno, it lies on the
California-Nevada State-line
and a painted band bisecting
the 4dance-floor permits one
to be conscious that one foot
is in Nevada while the other
dances gaily in California.
After midnight, colonists
establishing their Nevada
residence have to take care
where they tread, and more
than once a criminal, sought
by the Nevada police, has
stepped six inches to the
right and laughed in the
helpless face of the law.
The loud laughter Of
dancers and the clamor Of
the ''red hot orchestra
was exciting. Slipping her
drink as nonchalantly as
though she had been drink
ing all her life, Felicia sat
watching group Of col
onists making merry. There
The Washington times., 1929-03-11

was q bitterness about their
gaiety ; their laughter seemed
oddly forced.
She turned back to her
own crowd, the university
bunch. They were not pre-
tending masquerading, as
Judge Cooper had said.
Their amusement was spon-
taneous-they were young.
Billy Blair was going
about his drinking in a
thoroughly efficient manner,
and he seemed intent on
Felicia s doing likewise. Al
ways there seemed to be
two glasses at her place,
the one she was finishing
and the one awaiting her
consumption. Her cheeks
were flushed.
Perhaps it was the 'ex-
ample of the older people;
perhaps it was because they
were confined beneath b
roof, but all Of them were
drinking more much more
than tlsdal. Peg was be-
coming silly, giggling at
nothing at all.
Billy slipped unobserved
from the table; when he re-
turned, a little unsteady on
his feet, he swung Felicia
out to the dapce-floor. The
music stopped; they were
near a door and he led her
through it. She. looked at
him questionly.
WANT to talk to you, =
he muttered. "Can't talk
to you down there! -
A staircase rose before
them, and uncertainty
Felicia followed him.
"But where are we GO
ing, Billy!"
He paused, swayed. & Don t
you trust me, F licia 7"
"Of course / do! But
"Then come along
He pushed open a door,
led her inside, and closed
the door behind them. "A
little room, dimly lighted,
with a table. chairs, and a
narrow couch. Highballs
awaited them, and with an
air Of formality the boy
pulled out a chair for
Felicia.
I'm tired Of that gangl"
he erumbIed. "0h, Felicia,
I'm so crazy about you
You've got to let me fell
you! You've got to listen +"
She slipped her drink,
looking at him uncertainty
