NEAR CENTURY OF LIFE
 ENDS FOR INDIAN WOMAN

Continued from Page Onel forties brought for Louise a daugh- ter, who, had she lived would be close to fifty years of age.
 Louise lived over a span of years in which history has been made not only in her Alaska country but in the development of the Unite q States. Her experiences were rich and her life full in watching the transition of the life of her people from the barbaric to a high degree of development in our sO-called modern Christian civilization.
 The last few years of her life she lived helplessly for she was afflict- ed by blindness yet to the end her mind was clear though she was without the strength of a child.
 This winter marks the passing ot many landmarks; old buildings going and gone; timbered areas cleared; passing of men and women who have placed upon the commun- ity the influence of their lives to the good of the town. As the va cant chairs are viewed, as the par Zens feel the tightening of the heart strings by sorrow at the void that is left by this passing.
 The town is changing new buildings-new faces. The end that comes to all respects none and with out fear others stand waiting the final call.
 The Northwestern, off schedule 24 hours, will be in port south bound at o'clock Saturday night, according to word received at the local steamship office.

 vas becoming too cividzed TOT lrontiersmen. We needed more elbow room, Jim said. In order to save expenses they shipped then belongings to the thriving town ol seattle and jumped a freight Jraiu. But the weather crossing tue Rock les was very cold and the only an ddote for cold to a western man was red eye" So the saloon was che first stopping place in sett,e- ment. Upon reaching Seattle, tue they had each each spent uye doi- lars more than if they had bought a first class ticket an the train.
 Spring found them in Alaska where they began prospecting. NO fields were too remote to deserve their efforts. The Unuk River was first and it was during this time that Jim again met my father who owned a general merchandise store at Loring. In 1898 the Great Stampede was on and Jim went along with the rest. From then he became intimate with all the gold camps of Alaska, the Yukon, and Northwest Territory, until 1909 when he took up the nomadic life of trolling in Southeastern Alaska. In later years however, true to his antipathy for highly populated regions, Jim has been ashore at his beautiful little log cabin with it's flower garden ad- joining the Forestry Park at Wrangell. Now in his eighty fourth year, alert of mind and blue eyes shining, Jim says, T have been in every region of Alas ka and have seen more of il than most people. but there's a heiu1a lot l haven't seen yet"

'. g. SHIPMENTS TO ALAsKt
 INCREASED TWO MILLION 1885

An increase of nearly two million dollars in the value of merchandise shipped from the UnIted States and Canaua into Alaska during 1885 is an indication of the industrial growth Of Alaska in the opinion ot the office of the Collector, United States Customs Service at Juneau. Domestic shipments from the United states aggregated $32,007,S5o, while imports from foreign coun- trles amounted to $254,0O1, making a grand total of S32, 2,261,S57, or an increase of $1,986,379 over 1884.
 The total value of outbound com meIce during 1885 amounted to 9Oo,Zo9,5l1, or a decrease of S6,- Uz9ooo from 1884. This loss in outbound commerce was primarily due to the limiting of the catch of salmon in Bristol Bay by the Fed eral government. Despite this loss in shipments of merchandise from alaska, a balance of trade in favor oI the Territory of $21,027,654 was held.
 oulpmeuLS AAOAu IuS OnltSu OtaI5s to Alaska are classified by commo- dities, there being several hundred of such classincations. Lack of space prevents a detailed list there o1, put the following items are sa- lected tor pubncation as it is be- ueyed they will be of general inter est to the public.

President Hints Fund
For New Electric
Wiring Is Needed

A broad hint that the White
House is not up-to-date in the
matter Of fire protection was
given today by President RooSe-
welt in answer TO questions at
the first press conference he has
held since his return from Flor
ida fishing waters.
The President said that q re-
port from the Federal Fire Coun-
Gil, which examined the building
several weeks ago, was now in
the hands Of Army engineers,
who have charge of the White
House, and that it was apparent
that a deficiency appropriation
would be needed to take care Of
the obsolete electric light wiring
in, the upper floors of the build
ing. New wiring has been in
stalled in the basement Of the
building as a part of the work
in connection with the new
kitchen and other ground floor
rooms.
. It is understood also that q COM
plete fire alarm system may be
sought.
The Federal Fire Council, com
posed Of Bureau of Standards ex-
perts and other Government Off.
cials inspected the White House q
few weeks after the Post Office
fire. The President at that time
expressed surprise that the Gov
eminent buildings did not have
the protection Of the local fire
protective inspections.
and said that he saw mo reason
why that rule should continue.
