 KETCHIKAN MAN B YEARS GETTING MINING PATENT

After 33 years of effort Joseph Hamblet of Ketchikan has secured a patent to the Gold Banner lode claim at Thorne arm, says the Ket- chikan Chronicle. Four of the six attorneys hired by Hamblet died while on the job, causing complica- tions and delays, according to Frank A. Boyle, sixth attorney to handle the case in the United States land office.
 The records show that a survey of the claim was made by Hamblet in 1900 Hamblet hired Seattle at torney to whom he paid the cus- tomary fee. The money was placed by the attorney in the Washington National Bank of Seattle instead of with the land office in Sitka at the time.
 The bank on being notified, placed the money to the credit of the United States treasury and a Sp6cldl dCI Ol COuSTeSS WdS nSCoS- sary to get it back in the right channel. Meantime the attorney died. Roger S. Green of Seattle was hired by Hamblet in 1901, and he died.
 John B. Denny, former Juneau attorney in Seattle was then re- tained Publication of the notice was published in Ketchikan but before it was completed Denny died. A showing was made to the land office that the paper went out of business and failed to give proof to Hamblet that the notice had been published according to law. Several years later Hamblet re- opened the case and secured Pat Gildea of Ketchikan. He was busy with the case when he died.
 In 1881 the land office again called on Hamblet to furnish proof of publication. He convinced the land office through MT. Boyle that he had published the notice and paid for it, and the claim was al- lowed to go to patent. MT. Ham, blet has other interests in the Thorne arm section.

Reports from an unofficial source are said to have been circulated in Alaska to the effect that Secretary Ickes has given approval for early start of construction of the Ameri- can section of the PaCific-Y Yukon Highway. Unfortunately, this is not SO. The Secretary himself states that he has not given such approval. Distribution of the reports of the American section of the Highway Commission is continuing in order to obtain the widest possible public city.

Another ruling was made last night by the Treasury Department with respect to the exportation of gold.
 The ruling is that ores, concen- trates, precipitates, and unretorted amalgams may be exported, thus all lowing the exporters to command the prevailing world price for the precious metal That price in the London market is now approximate ly $50 an ounce as against $2O.67 for an ounce of pure gold in the United States.
 The ruling is not now in written form and it is exceedingly difficult to tell just how far it goes. If defi- nitions of ores, concentrates, etc. are those usually employed in mining terminology free gold market in effect has been declared, but in conversations with Treasury off, cials the impression was gained that restricted definition of terms would be applied. This impression was heightened by reiteration of the statement that gold recovered from smelting processes would not be eli- gible for export.
 Delegate Dimond is endeavoring to secure a written opinion relative to the ruling and if it becomes ap- parent that the bars now raised against shipment of gold to foreign countries have been lowered the news will be wired to Alaska. In this connection it may be said that the Delegate has submitted brief to the Secretary of the Treasury urigng creation of free market for gold.

the ball going Is feet past the

for a birdie.
Runyan's fine play, which cleo
trified the crowd following him,

this position men who must have
certain qualifications. They must
be large enough to hold their
line from the physical stand
point, and this size depends a
good deal upon a mans active
ness and his aggressiveness. He
must be fast enough to run
interference and likewise smart
enough.
He must be intelligent enough
to quickly cover his position on
shift plays. It is unusual to find
a man under ITO to ITS pounds
in universities and colleges who
is strong and aggressive enough
to make up for his lack Of
weight necessary to play this
position.
Just ~ Unusual
On the other hand, 1t Is Just as
unusual to find Q man weighing
over 100 pounds who has the speed
and is, at the same time, active
and alert enough to play a guard
position, so that in college we ex'
pect to find the right type of
guard with the qualifications for
this position somewhere between
ITS and 1876 pounds.
A coach is indeed fortunate who
finds a man who is bigger than
this, and, with all, has the nee
esSary speed and qualifications for
the position.
In order to appreciate the type
a little better, a great many
coaches take men who have more
experience at q fullback position
and, for one reason or another,
have fallen short Of the qualifi-
cations to make a high class full
back and shift them to a guard
position. This is almost an ideal
type.
Had Butter Fingers
We have in mind an all-Amerl-
can guard who had all the quail
fications for q fuuback-speed,
running interference and q hard
hitting back. aggressive, alert, and
smart-but he was Of the fumbling
type.
His hands never gained the skill
necessary for him to make a sure
handler of the ball. This man
was developed into an all-Ameri-
can guard.
Again, we have in mind a guard
who had all the qualifications to
play in the backfield, but he did
not have the mental alertnesS nee
eSsary to defend against forward
passes.
For defense against running
plays he was q good defensive
fullback. This man made a re-
markedly high grade guard.

up in aggresSivenesS plus alert
ness. However, they took the
hardest way to stop the Presi-
dents.
With four more days Of practice
the team should improve often
sively and be able to give Tulsa
University a hard battle Friday
night in Griffith Stadium. Spe-
cial attention will be given to the
mastery Of new assignments
created by the shifting Of some
players.
Smooth Function
Smooth functioning Of the
offense will be necessary if the
Colonials are to stop Tulsa. The
Golden Hurricane from Oklahoma
has one of the best attacks in the
country and G. w. must have one
just as effective or better in
order to win the decision.
Just how the Colonial regard
Tulsa may be expressed by the
statement Of several Of the play
ers who have played twice before
when G.. w. lost to the Golden
Hurricane. All Of them say:

HARRIS NOT PLANNING TRADES FOR RED SOX AT
TEAM
WILL ENTER
IST DIVISION

Stanley cBucky") Harris, the
newly appointed manager of the
Boston Red Sox, today is at his
home here eagerly looking for
ward to his off-SeaSon hobby OF
hunting.
Harris said:
There really won't be much
doing in the way of trades until
the annual winter baseball meet
ing in Chicago on December H."
Although Johnny Hodapp, sec
ond baseman, and Tom Oliver.
center fielder, have been released,
Harris intimated that no more
players would be let go at present.
Possible Lineup
AS to the possible lineup of the
Red Sox next season, Harris
stated:
Eddie Morgan, the first base
man we obtained in the draft,
has good American League
reputation as a hitter. He ought
to help us.
"CiSseIl should plug up the
gap at second base. Although
Werber played shortstOp last
season, I haven't decided who
win take over the job next year.
"Bucky Walters, at third,
leaves nothing to be desired as
far as fielding is concerned. I
am confident, and so is Eddie
Collins, that Walters will pick
up from 10 to Is points in his
batting average next season.
Dusty Cooke and Roy John
son will probably be fixtures in
the Outfield, with Julius SOlters,
whom hope will live up to the
great reputation he had in the
international League.
II intend to get another
catcher to help out Rick Fer
reIl."
Harris did not say, however
what will become Of Catcher
Johnny Gooch in the event an
other backstop Is secured.
Seeking SOuthpaw
Although announcing himself
as pleased with the present group
Of Sox hurlers, Harris let it be
known that he would like to add
. southpaw or two to his mound
staff.
eve said this before, and
IN say it again. I feel hon.
Ored to come to Boston as
manager, said Harris.
81 think the club will be up
there in first division next
season, and I hope to remain
here long enough to bring it to
the top of the league"
Harris announced that the
Red Sox will train at Sarasota,
Fla, next spring.
Asked to comment upon the
American League situation, Har-
riS said:
"SOme of these secOnd-divi-
sion. clubs are liable to make
trades during the winter that
will pull them up in the stand
ing when the season opens.
ANY prediction at this time as
to how the American League
race will go in 1894 would be
very foolish.
