FEEDS HERO

An appeal for Government &C
tion in the case Of Capt. Evelyn
Briggs Baldwin, Arctic explorer,
was made today as the aged
mariner was forced to eat at a
penny restaurant to sustain life.
Captain Baldwin, whose exploits
once thrilled the world, is now II
years old. Due to the economy
act he lost his $135-a-month job
with the Navy Department.
Now he is living on 9 cents a
day. And soon the little store of
money he has will be exhausted.
An appeal for action in his case
was sent to Senator Tydings of
Maryland by Arnold Kruckman of
the Cosmos Club.

sequent generations of the Nordic man, the subject of this made quate life-sketch-John A. Nel- son, but lately one of our oldest and most active fellow citizens left his Scandinavian home to come to the United States seeking his fortune.
 MT. Nelson was born in 1871 at or near Halslaur, Sweden, but when some 12 years of age, Tn 1883, accompanied only by a brother, and not by his parents, arrived in America.
 The great Northwest being at that time, the modal point of at traction to the great numbers of adventurers and industrious Morse men coming to this country, it was but natural that our subject gravitated to Michigan and later to Wisconsin and then to Dakota where he became a farmer.
 At one time he became interest ed in the iron mines on the Mes abe Range in Minnesota and there left his mark, the town of Nelson, Minn., having been named after him. The entire course of his &C., tivities in the Northwest is not def initely known but it is known that he was engaged in contracting along the lines of the railroads building from the East to Spokane

ALASKA CARIBOU AND REINDEER SKIN AFFORD
 EXCELLEN! LEATHER

Alaska caribou and reindeer skin afford some of the best leath- CT obtainable for hand -titched gloves Such gloves are always smart and very easily made for a fraction of what they cost in shops. On Tuesday afternoon, 2 o'clock to 4, at the school house Mrs. Lydia Fohn- Hansen of the Exten- sion service of the Alaska College, will show how gloves are made and will make glove patterns for those who wish them. There will also be an exhibit of hand d-woven articles.
 In spite of the low cost of ready to-wear garments, it pays to sew at home when materials can be secured at reasonable costs as at present It is also a great saving to be able to remodel or cut down used garments in which the mat terial is still good. Present-day styles are especially adaptible for old material. The fancy sleeves make it possible to combine con- trasting materials, as for example, a dress worn out under the arms may be given a new lease on life with a square cut arm-hole and contrasting sleeves
 In children's clothing, health fulness. comfort and simplicity are of utmost importance. Garments easy to put on encourage a child to help himself. Front openings, large buttons, flat trimming, not only are best for the child but easy to make.
 The Wednesday afternoon meet ing at the school house will be in the nature of a clothing clinic. From l to o'clock Mrs. Fohn- Hansen will cut patterns and give suggestions for altering garments. Puff sleeve patterns, the bias slip pattern, and a child's dress with puff sleeves and yoke in one piece will be especially interesting for those who have difficulty in se- curing patterns.

 He arrived in Seattle, Washing ton and was there admitted to citizenship in the United States in June, 1902.
 TURNS TO NORTH
 At that time many prominent men in Seattle became interested in the project of building rail- road in Alaska, to the Yukon riv- CT from the most available port on the coast of Alaska, known to be free from ice during all winters. For this southern terminus of the projected railroad Seward on Res- urrection Bay was chosen.
 The Alaska Central Railway Company was organized in Seattle by Ex-Governor J. H. McGraW, J. w. Goodwin, prominent business man, John M Dickenson, presi- dent and general manager of most of the street railways of Seattle; E. E. Caine, president of steam ship line from Seattle to the south ern shores of Alaska, and other forward-looking men such as the then well-known August Heinze, copper magnate of Montana. Of this organiza tion, John E. Ballaine and his brother Frank L. Ballaine, were the formative agents.
 Among those seeking the oppor- tunity of getting to Alaska, our John A. Nelson and brother bought and paid for stock in said company and signed on as mem bers of the engineering crew about to 5e sent to Seward for the first surveys for the projected railway. MT. Nelson landed in Seward June 1902 from the SS Santa Ana to- gether with some 50 odd others.
 When, a few days later. about June 18, the SS Bertha, explained by our fellow townSman, O. A. Jo- hansen, arrived with the final party of surveyors under the charge of Engineer John G. Scurry, the real work began, friend Nell son doing his allotted share
 ACTIVE CITIZEN
 In late August, 1903, the Town of Seward was born. The NelsonS purchased lots and erected build ing on the lot where the Brown & Hawkins warehouse and Ogle's Garage now stand They then started the first transfer business in Seward which was subsequent ly sold to Joe Laubuer.
 Tn 1906 Nelson, together with Frank L. Ballaine, incorporated the Seward Water & Power Co.,, with which as a principal stock holder and general manager, he remained for many years.
 Tn 1910 Nelson and Ballaine took a bond on the Skeen & Lech- ner mines on Falls Creek but soon turned them over to other parties, Nelson, however, continuing in managing them
 In 1912 the same two friends and partners in important enter prises engaged in placer mining on Mills Creek and Canyon Creek.
 In July 1882 MT. Nelson organiz- ed the Surprise Bay Mining & Milling Co.,, of Nuka Bay with of- fices in Spokane, Wash. and was president of the company until his demise on April IT last, at Seattle.

mentum and due to the slippery condition of the rails was getting beyond the control of its operator Motorman Travel.
 The damaged cars were owned by the American Brass company and James Bosco of 76 Walnut street. The trio who suffered some bruises as a result of their exper1- ence were MT Bosco, Halton Par- thenay of 89 High street, this city and Edward Falk of Torrington both employees of the American Brass company.
 The accident occurred about 10:30 o'clock this morning. As the trolley car passed Johnson street 1t started to slip fast on the ice-coated rails. It crashed into a Plymouth sedan driven by MT Parthenay and car ried it down the incline several yards before 1t swerved to one side and piled against Bosco's truck with considerable force. The trolley car proceeding some distance fur ther down to the street was brought to a standstill below the intersection of Grove and West Grove streets. Motorman Travel remaining at his post and keeping his bell ringing loudly saved other autoists from being damaged by the trolley car.
 The left side of the Mack truck owned by Bosco was caved in. Con- siderable damage also resulted to the Plymouth sedan. MT Falk ap- peared to be most seriously injured of the three and was given medical attention.

FRANCE SENT ON
 HER USUAL NOTE
 ON DEBTS OWED
She Should Have Paid the Sum of $22,2OO,927
 To-day

Washington, Dec 15-(U.P.) - The French government formally notified the United States to-day that France will default on her debt instalment of $22.200.927 due to-day.
 The notification was contained in a formal note presented to Acting Secretary of State Phillips by the
 French Ambassador Andre De La- boulaye on behalf of his govern ment.
 The French note, it was under
 stood, followed nearly parallel lines with the note presented by Belgium several days ago an nouncfng Belgium's intention tc default this payment, as she and France and Poland have defaulted regularly since last December 15
 The Belgian note informed the United States that no further pay ments could be expected from Bel gium unless and until the German reparation payment to Belgium are resumed.
 The French note, it was under stood, contained much the same | inference but used less specific | language. It informed the Amer. ican government that the condi. tions which prompted the first French default last December 15 and again June 15, still revail and l that under the circumstances ths French government finds itself un'
 able to meet the current install ment. | ment of 229,623. She was the only | governmdnt to pay in full.
