Anderson Sells Fur At
 Satisfactory Prices

Oscar Anderson, well-known fur trader of the Liard country. passed through Wrangell this week on the way to his post at the mouth of Dease River, after having attended several west coast fur sales. He was accompanied by his son, Lester.
 Anderson reports satisfactory prices for most of his fur. He dispos- ed of more than fourteen thousand dollars worth of his own fur, but re- jected bids on some of his lynx and beaver. He believes the prices will continue to advance.
 Anderson's experience as trap per, and later as fur trader, dates back some thirty years. He is well known in Wrangell as the former partner and boyhood friend of Guy Carson, who also spent a number of years in the Liard.
 For a number of years, Anderson occupied the old buildings mile be- low Lizard Post. Later he acquired the property formerly owned by the Hyland Estate, situated close to the Hudson's Bay Company's store.
 Power Boats
 The power boat has been a decided factor in the fur trade, according to Anderson. Ten years ago all fur and supplies were transported in heavy scows propelled by Indians and voyageurs. The trip from Lizard to Dease Lake usually meant three weeks of back-breaking work on the tracking line. Now the trip is ac- complished in three days without the aid of a crew of men.
 The Indians are quick to take ad- vantage of competitive buying, And erson says. Many tribesmen who traded at Liard in former years, and who abandoned the post when only one trader was left, are beginning to return with their furs, and are bringing other bands with them.
 There are three outfits buying fur at Liard this year; the Hudson S Bay Company, Anderson, and Dell zeil. All the fur purchased is sent out through Wrangell and all the supplies for the posts are brought into the country via Wrangell.

Dr, Joseph Mandy, mining engineer for the Province of British Columbia, arrived from Telegraph Creek on the last trip of the Hazel B No. 2, after having spent several weeks visiting the various mining camps of the Cassiar District. He expressed him. self as pleased with the outlook for mining in this district, and reports more development work in progress than in any previous year. Accom- panied by Mrs. Mandy. he covered 164 miles of the district with saddle and pack horse.
 Leaving Dease Lake with Bill FL der in charge of the pack stock. Dr. Mandy crossed the Arctic-Pacific di- vide via Hotel Creek and dropped down into Little Eagle directly op- posite Gold Pan. where three claims are being worked.
 Cambrons Doing Well
 Mir. and Mrs. Ben Cambron, work ing with a two-way boomer are un- covering much good ground, Dr. Mandy said. Twenty-two nuggets picked out by hand weighed nine ounces and two pennyweight. Two of them ran better than an ounce each. Cambron has two men in his em- ploy, shoveling into sluice-boXes, and Mrs. Cambron, in addition to looking after the culinary department, ire quently lends a hand with a shovel. Their ground is being worked sys- tematically, and they have two good seasons ahead of them without nov ing their dam.
 Bill Moody, who operates close to the Cambrons, appears to have good ground, Dr. Mandy said, but it is deeper than either Cambron's or Vickery's claims. and presents diff faculties in disposing of the tailings. The creek should be turned and a drainage tunnel driven.
 Previous operations by laymen on Vickery's ground covered Up some of his best dirt, Dr. Mandy thinks, and it will be necessary to do some ground-sluicing before this claim can be worked to an advantage.
 Possibilities On Dome
 A number of likely creeks are be- ing overlooked by prospectors in the Gold Muddy River sections, ac- cording to pr. Mandy's observations. Excellent indications were found on Dome Creek, and also on little un- named creek at Caribou Pass. Pan ming was done here by members of the party, and colors weighing two to three cents found.
 The area between Dease Lake and Gold Pan is also worthy of some de- velopment work, according to the

EPISCOPAL
 CHURCH TO BE
 REMODELED

N. J. Nicholson, superintendent of construction and repair work of the Protestant Episcopal church in Al aska under Bishop Rowe, arrived in Wrangell Tuesday from the north, to see about repairs at St. Philips church and gymnasium.
 He left on the Princess Louise Thursday for Victoria, B. C., where he will confer with Bishop Rowe. He intends to return to Wrangell the first of October. Church repairs will include a new heating plant and some repairs to the front of the building, though it is not certain at this time to what extent the bishop expects to authorize alterations on the church properties
 Since coming North eighteen months ago, MT. Nicholson has been continuously engaged on church property repair and construction work.
 His first stop was at Anchorage where he raised the church and built a parish hall and guild room under heath. He also raised and remodeled the rectory, and installed a hot wa ter heating plant in the rectory, church and guild room, the total cost being $S0OO.
 Nicholson then went to Fort Yu- kon, north of the Artic Circle, where he installed a steam heating plant at the Hudson Stuck Memorial Hos pital, sank 240-foot well and built a girls dormitory at the mission.
 The hospital is maintained pri- marily as a charitable institution for the Indians, but many of the old time white men are charitably cared for as we'll as any white person in the district needing hospital care. Those who are able are expected to pay for the service rendered.
 The hospital, which has 24 beds and full modern equipment, is run by Dr. Burke and a staff of four nurses. A 10-bed solarium for Indian tubercular patients is operated in conjunction with the hospital and the beds are rarely vacant. The clinic at the hospital handles an average of ten out-patients daily.
 Mrs. Burke conducts mission for the children and usually has from twenty to thirty under her care The children often have been patients at the hospital who need to be kept in an environment different from what they have at home, some are or phans and others are left with Mrs. Burke while the parents are out on traplines during the winter months.
 The mission gives food, clothing and shelter to the children. They are trained in sanitation, hygiene and domestic arts, and are also taught the Indian arts of bead work, mocca- sin and other work with skins which they need in that country. They re- ceive their schooling from the Gov ernment school at Fort Yukon.

WASHINGTON: President Roose- welt moved into the drivers seat Wednesday, determined to end the coal code fight and put across a nationwide program of credit ex- pansion as a necessary move toward recovery. Roosevelt, it was learned. was ready to exercise direct White House pressure on the coal operators whose demands are holding up the codes for that industry.
 With the credit expansion an ob- iective in view, the chief executive turned to strengthening the already rehabilitated banking structure in order to provide sources of addition al capital for agriculture and indus try, and to convince bankers that the administration is behind them on a liberal lending policy. In addi- tion, the President was making every effort to increase the purchas- ing power of the farmers dollar, which he hopes is a key to the solu- tion of the economic situation.
 On top of these definite moves, Roosevelt stood ready to pour mill lions of dollars into stricken areas, ranging from the Dakotas to Flor ida. These sections were hard hit by droughts, storms and hurricanes. Orders already have been given to make funds available.

engineers report. Both Hotel and the creek opposite Gold Pan are given as likely places to prospect. The prospector must watch the flow of glaciation in order to get the best results, however. Creeks cross ing the flow of glaciation offer the best possibilities.
 Avoid U-shaped Valleys
 In prospecting a glaciated terrain the prospector will do we'll to avoid the U-sh.sped valleys. and spend his time on those that more nearly cor respond to the letter V, Dr. Mandy said. Loose morainic gravels, even when they give colors, are apt to result in lost labor. Evidences of stratification should be looked upon as a good indication.
 Forty miles from Gold Pan, at the Little Muddy crossing. Dr. Mandy's party found Walter Simpson and Alex Melee engaged in the erection of 165-foot bridge which the De- partment of Mines had ordered built The two men were completing the last span when the party ar rived.
 Tt is the most creditable piece of work have seen in the Cassiar Dis trict," Dr. Mandy said. Tt is con- structed in five spans and has four piers of rock cribbing. The job was completed in 30 days, and affords an easy crossing for pack horses"
