Miss Betty Calkins Elected Miss Nome Goes To Fairbanks

With the school auditorium crowded to capacity and wheels of fortune turning steadily all Saturday evening, Miss Nome was elected with a final furry of vote casting which ended at mid night.
 Miss Betty Calkins, daughter of Mrs. C. L. Calkins, was elected Miss Nome with total vote of over four million. Miss Lorene Hagen was second with over three million, and Miss Evelyn Wallace was third with 535, 900 votes.
 In beautiful setting, arranged by Queen Manager Heberlee, Miss Betty Calkins was introduced as Miss Nome from the stage, by the President of the Nome Ken nel Club, Russell Maynard, who placed the crown of the Club up- on her head and presented her with beautiful loving cup as a special gift.
 A lovely down quilt was pre- sentsd to Miss Hagen and a linen table cloth to Miss Wallace, as special gifts.
 A gorgeous fur outfit of spotted and striped rabbit skin was given to the Queen to wear in Fair banks. 1t included a fur turban, fancy mukluks and jacket.
 By special request Queen Betty modeled the outfit before the admiring eyes of her many friends. The Office of Indian Af- fairs, thru E. B. Fisher, the Nome director, was responsible for the fur outfit, which is undoubtedly the most fancy outfit to be turned out in Nome.
 A check for $80 for the Queens transportation to Fairbanks, via the Wien Alaska Airlines, and another $100 check for a ward robe, were presented to the Queen of Nome. Sunday morning she posed for pictures in her fur out fit, and left for Fairbanks this morning.
 Excitement prevailed thruout the entire evening as the votes were cast and the supporters od each contestant worked untiring- ly to put their favorite over. And SO another Queen was crowned and everywhere can be heard the remark that the other towns ir Alaska will have to go some tc beat the Queen of Nome in the contest for Miss Alaska, which will take place Thursday nigh at Fairbanks.

The Passing of
 A Real Pioneer
 Shock Nomeites

The shocking news of the death of our fellowItownsrnan, James Frawley, Saturday morning, drew hundreds of expressions of regret and condolences for Mrs. Fraw- ley, who is at Pasadena, Califor- mia, where death occurred.
 MT. and Mrs. Frawley left Nome this winter via plane for the pur- pose of visiting and doing what he could for his neice which lay serious i'll in New York, and upon his arrival there he made plans to take his neice to Pasadena, California, where he believed the change of climate would be good for her. So the Frawley's accom- panied fby the neice arrived in me west. MT. Frawley, himself had been intending to do some thing in relation to his own heal th, so decided to undergo an op- eration, which he did. Following his operation he had several set backs, finally ending in death.
 Born in South Dakota, Feb. 16, 1888, James Frawley came to Nome in the early days of the gold rush, to make his fortune in mining. Since that time he had devoted his life to that industry, being primarily interested in the development of this great mining territory
 He was the man who carried through the negotiations and ar engagements for the purchase of

British Destroyer Escaped Damage
 Plane Bombs

LONDON, March ', R-The Admiralty disclosed that the Bri- tish destroyer Blanche was not hit by any of five unidentified bombing planes off the Spanish coast in the same general area as where the Spanish government fleet yesterday torpedoed and sank one of the Insurgents prize cruisers.
 An admira lty official further said he believed the attack on British vessels was as a result of the naval battle, and was obvi- ously a case of mistaken identi- ty.
 Spanish government warplanes took an aotive part in the naval battle, bombing the Insurgent war,ships, straffing their decks with machine gun fire.
 The destruction of the crack ten thousand ton cruiser in the battle off Cartegena left a gaping hole in the Insurgents fleet block ade of Spanish government forts
 The British destroyers Kemp enfield and Boreas rescued more than four hundr ed survivors from the bombed cruiser, which is said to be the Baleares.

Fire Destroyed Machine Shop
 Of Mining Co.

At l:3O P. M. Saturday, a fire broke out in the garage adj oining the machine shop of the U. s. Smelling, Refining and Mining Co.,, situated just north of town. The city fire department, and members of the Volunteer depart ment, with the new motor equip ment made the run.
 The blaze gained headway rap idly and some oil caught afre, making it extremely difficult and dangerous to fight. Hose was laid from the hydrant in front of the Weather Bureau and strung out to the shops, following an alt tempt to get water thru the Moon light water main to the scene of the fire.
 The fire quickly endangered other buildings including the warehouses where thousands of dollars in supplies and machinery were stored Heroic work on the part of company men and the fire fighters, and others, prevented the fire from spreading. The warehouse next to, the machine shop was partially gutted, 1t was stated.
 A statement from company of ficials declared the machine shop with its valuable equipment and other supplies, to be complete loss.
 Water was kept on the ruins until P. M. Saturday evening so that no chance was allowed for the fire to smolder and break out at later time. An available hose was rushed from the fire house to the scene, and all fire fighting equipment utilized to the pest dIVdHtdge.
 Through expert management and cooperation of city and com pany men, not a person was burn ed or injured in the fire, which might easily have cost several their lives, if every degree of safety had not been exercised.
 Much costly equipment and vital parts of the power plant were reported destroyed in the blaze, whih might delay opening of operations in the spring, it was pointed out
 Company officials declared they were unable to announce any es- timate of the total loss. at this time.
 A letter was written to the City Council by Gerry Harney Assistant Manager, of the U.SR & M. Co.,, as follows:

Respiration, fundamental
function Of Nan s Body

just as much as we have to-
slowly when sitting still, more
rapidly when moving around, with
painful frequency when we run a
race.
These adjustments are carried
out by a very delicate mechanism
in the base of the brain called the
respiratory center. This center
was supposed formerly to occupy
a very small amount of space, but
studies in our own day indicate it
is more diffuse and multiple. At
any rate, it is very sensitive TO the
presence of oxygen and carbon di-
oxide in the blood. If the oxygen
content falls, the center is stinnu-
lated to activity, so that the
breathing is accumulated and more
oxygen is taken in. If the oxygen
in the blood is high, on the con-
trary, the center feels no necessity
for rapid breathing and respiration
falls to low level.
Thus we have a paradoxical Sit
uation so that if an anesthetist
wants to restore patient to bet
ter breathing, he gives carbon di-
oxide which is a kind Of body poi
son. When enough of this accum-
ulates, the respiratory center is
stimulated and the lungs them
selves wash all the extra carbon
dioxide out and take the oxygen in.
The respiratory center is sensi-
tive to many other influences, how
ever, and is well adapted to regu-
lating this most essential function.
