"But early one morning we sighted q
fleet of five boats becalmed," said Capt.
LukenS. This was our chance to catch
them and teach them a lesson about
destroying Government property. We
sailed forth to give battle Pushing
our boat toward them we forced them
ashore on the island. We then beck
oned them to produce their leader At
the same time we opened fire to frighten
them. For two Philippine boys we had
left on shore to watch the tides were
missing from their camp. And we felt
pretty sure the Dyaks knew what had
become of them.
Finally, the leader of the band came
wading out to our boat, ali the time
covered by our rifles. Through an in
terpreter we demanded to know what
had become of the Philippine boys. He
declared that they had left of their own
accord. But we were skeptical and made
examination of their boats for any evil
dence to the contrary and for contra
brand material. Nothing, however, was
found to confirm our suspicious So we
had to let them go. However, before
doing so we fired several shots into their
boats as a warning of what might hap
pen to them if they bothered us any
more. They departed swiftly and never
came back. Later our two boys, given
up for dead, appeared. They had re-
treated to the brush to escape the
raiders."'

These are not fantastic tales, conjured
up by a fantastic brain. They are actual
adventures encountered by members of
one of Uncle Sans greatest surveying
organizations-the United States Coast
and Geodetic Survey.
The survey goes all over the world,
wherever Uncle Sam has possession,
charting shore water, taking observa-
tionS in deserts, on mountains, in
SwampS and amid desolate ice and snow
regions. The men who follow the
"theodoliteS" have vivid and memorable
experiences. They read like Baron Mum
chausen tales. Take, for instance, the
experience of Lieut.. Jack Bond in the
Philippines. He was attacked by
crocodile.
Bond was in charge of a surveying
party down in the Zulu Archipelago.
The party was going into small bay
with a motor launch. Bond was stand
ing on the after deck with his leg wrap
ped around an awning stanchion. Sud-
denly there was tremendous upheaval
of water at the boats stern. and a giant
bull crocodile flashed his Slithery black
length out of the water and seized him
by the leg. Fortunately for Bond, the
"croc" got the Stanchion along with the
leg in his mouth. AS it was, Bonds leg
was severely lacerated and broken and
the boat all but capSized. Bond had to
spend several weeks in a hospital at
Manila to recover from his experience.
The crocodile was shot by 6 native con-

work under the leadership of Capt.
Richard LukenS.
One of these raids took place and the
Somales, not content with attacking the
Palawan natives, proceeded to wreck
the equipment of the surveying party,
particularly destroying their hydro
signal station to get nails and wire.
Every time the party went out to survey
the members found their equipment
broken and scattered. Nothing was left
but brush with these pirates.
But the SomaleS were wary and hard
to catch. AS soon as they committed

Bond and the stanchion gripped in its
viSelike jaws.
IN THIS same section of the world live
the SomaleS, native pirates and can
nibals, remnants of the fierce Dyak
tribe of warriors and sea rovers. These
killers operate along the coast of Pala-
wan, making raids upon the natives
living there, destroying the men and
carrying off the women and their food.

JUNEAU PROPERTY WORTH MORE
 NOW

The transaction whereby the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company purchased the property and hold ings formerly known as the Alaska Gastineaur has in the opinion of many Juneau property owners, increased the value of all real estate in Juneau.
 This opinion is well founded The relatively large and consistent semi-monthy payroll of the Alaska Juneau gold mine goes long way to make Juneau the thriving town it is. The employees of the mine make up very considerable part of JuneauS population. True if the mine were not here the other industries such fishing and lumber ing the sourrounding area, the Territorial and Fed eral offices would support town, but not one of Juneau'S present size
 Through the purchase last week, many years of life have been added to the Alaska Juneau mine. Property owners and business men are assured that even if some of Juneaus other hoped for develop ments such pulp and paper mills should not materialize as rapidly extensively hoped for, that now many years of large scale mining and milling by the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Com pany have been added, which in turn definitely insures Juneaus continued growth and the sustain ing and increase of business and property values.
 Some believe that the acquisition of the Alaska Gastineau by other interests would have been more beneficial If the property could have been profit ably operated a separate unit a considerable period of time such arrangement would un- doubtedly have been beneficial. However many think that the future of such proposition very doubtful Numerous engineers and fnanciers have studied it. An important New York fnancier, a heavy stockholder in the company that sold to the Alaska Juneau spent considerable time here this Summer with engineer studying the property. This man is said to have stopped the deal that was underway earlier in the year previous to his trip here. After a thorough investigation he evidently decided that separate operation not practical, last weeks sale would not have taken place.
 According to General Manager Metzgar's an- nouncement Saturday, development work will start immediately the new property. Some increase in employment will result and the entire Alaska Juneau operation will be sustained and heightened through the purchase.
 Under this situation Juneau property is certainly worth more, and it is not presuming for every Juneau property owner to place an increased value on his real estate or business

Complexion sof the Senateal
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

l
 If is taken for granted generally that the Demo- cratic Party will lose some seats in the House after the election next month but not enough to endanger its working majority much more interesting ana unusual situation is that in the Senate Here the Democrats now have 60 members, with occasional support from one Farmer -Laborite and several so- called Progressive Republicans. Because of the doubtf prospects of G. O. P. forces in seven States now represented by Republicans to elect their Sen ators this year. the likelihood is that the Democrats will increase their majority.
 candid survey of the Senatorial lineup indl- cates that the Democrats have good chance to establish a two-thirds majority in the upper cham Der If they do this it will be the first time since the Civil War that one party has had SO great a majority in the Senate. two-thrds majority is peculiarly important in the Senate, since that vote is required for confirmation of treaties. It is diff ficu to estimate accurately the possibilities of this situation inasmuch as there is precedent in the last three generations.
 Another aspect of the Senatorial situation IS important Because they hold office six years, the turnover of Senators is much slower and there is virtually no possibility of a Republican majority in the Senate in 1886 Even in 1888, it would re- quire wide shift of public opinion to annhilate Democratic control of the Senate Thus not only the Legislative success of the present Democratic Admin istraon is involved the elections for the Senate next month but the political complexion of the Senate in the Administration after 1886 is also at stake.
