 Perhaps the most amazing performance of a radio controlled ship far that of the United States destroyer Stodder off San Diego, Caf recently, when according to press dispatch everything from whistle to dder was operated by radio from the bridge of the control ship Perry, which followed in it's wake" The Perry is the destroyer which visited Seward last year with the Congressional party.
 One maneuver directed from the control vessel by radio 180degree tum caused by pressing certain keys the bridge of the Perry. The Stoddert without single board, turned entirely around without sleckenng speed The speed changed at wi search lights operated the whistle bown and other interesting stunts performed in obedience to the radio impulses sent from the Perry.
 In warfare ship equipped with this radio apparatus might be used to ram enemy vessels carry torpedoes to be automatically released among them and play havoc generally.
 As long they confine this idea to battle- wagons, naval vessels the public will be satisfied for anon, 1t would be awful for bunch of static to block such controlled steamer and instead of landing in Seattle, dock at China

With the exclusive rights to processing ore for the recovery of all values chemically pure, w. E.

 tremendous influence toward resumption before achieved throughout this area of Alaska.
 Instead of shipping ore to smelters, the miner need only ship to the plants which will be established by Mr. OMaey, the first at Anchorage and in the Seward vicinity and other units elsewhere they can be established in mining districts At these plants ev- erythng the ore embodies will be recovered.
 MT. O'Malley very conservative yet enthusiastic in his interview with The Gateway and is to be con- 1nended by every Alaskan for his admirable and pro- gressve spirit in bringing to successful conclusion his plans for founding great industry which has too long been dormant.

WALLACE, Idaho, July 2. (P- The hills of the Occur d'Alenes will witness more men at work on isolated ventures this summer than for many years. Those who must do their assessment work are in one class and those miners tenn porarily out of employment turn ing to prospecting, are in another.
 Congress declined exempt min ing claims from the law which re- quires s100 worth of work each year on mining claims, prior to patent If the work is not done by July 1, the claim reverts to the government and is subject to relocation by any one.
 Many owners are hiring the work done, reports the Denver Mining Record,in recent issue.
 ! Besides such work, many men are prospecting for placer ground still unworked or for undiscover- ed lode values. Old-time placer diggings of Richard, Eagle and Beaver creeks, scenes of gold rush. es in the early sos, are attracting many prospectors. Many still search for the mother lode," the source of all the gold wealth of the district.
 Gold nuggets, in a setting o1 white quartz, have recently been found and are evidence that quartz veins exist somewhere along the streams from which the golG became detached.
