urged life sentences for Cadets

for Cadets Oga and Hayashi and
three years for Cadet Tuskana. I'M

Jury at Thorntons undertaking

Singh's skull was caved in by the
blunt end of an axe and searchers
found the death instrument in a

strands of hair on the end and

CABLE AND 4 b0'N'S CHAIR |S NEEDED ID
 PENETRATE COUNTRY

Practically all of that portion of the Kenai Peninsula south of the Kenai river and west of Russian lake is locked from prospectors for the lack of a cable and bo'n's chair near the western end of the Cooper's Landing-Kenai road.
 Thus reports those who have en- deavored to penetrate the country in an effort to prospect and check up on legends of large quartz ledges, some of them reputed to be from 25 to 50 feet in width.
 The roadway now completed, for seven miles, traverses the south-side of Kenai river for dis tance of approximately five miles It then crosses to the north side of the river at Schooner's Bend, and extends approximately two miles further, where a brushed out trail begins and runs to a point Il miles down the river, and swings north thru the Seven lakes and on to Skilak lake.
 Thus one may reach Russian river afoot, but must that stream to proceed farther westward and southWard. The chance of fording is contingent upon the stage of the water in the river.
 At present the only method by which prospectors may reach the south side of river beyond Rus sian lake, is to jump the rapid in a boat, abandon it II miles down or line it upstream,a hazardous and trying experience.
 Efforts are being made to per suade the Department of Interior, under whose jurisdiction the inn provement remains, to string an overhead cable between the bluffs somewhere in the vicinity of Sur prise creek. This would open all of the southern side of the river, be- low Russian lake, to prospectors and give access to the north via the Seven lakes, the prospective route of the Coopers Landing Ke- mai road and trail, and which IS now traversed overland in winter by dogteam carrying mail.
