Find Bodies Of Ernest Balsinger, Emil Laurin

Yesterday morning U. s. Mar shal Ben Mozee and a party of searchers found the missing bodies of Ernest Balsinger and Emil Lau- rin in the ruins of the Lincoln ho- tel.
 It is reported by those who were in the building about an hour be- fore it collapsed that the two men were working frantically trying to save merchandise.
 Emil Laurin, owner of the building was a moner for many years in the Kougarok with his brother Hector who died a few years ago. With Joe Mullins as partner he bought out Mrs. Jack Devine in the early years of the war and since then had become sole owner of the hotel. He was French Canadian by birth with his home in Quebec, where he has several relatives. It is reported that he also has a sister who is at the Catholic Mission at Holy Cross.
 Ernest Balsinger, a Swiss, was for many years manager of the Golden Gate Hotel here, from where the big fire of 1884 started. Since then he has spent most of his time at the Lincoln. It is pop ularly believed that he never re- covered from the shock that the fire which started in his hotel de- stroyed the greater part of Nome's business district.
 The safe of the hotel, which was removed to the Polar Bar, is be- lieved to contain papers of both men. It has not been opened.

WE THE WOMEN
What's Your Rating As A Wife?

You think more of gaining the
approval Of your friends than you
do Of your husbands comfort in
furnishing your home.
You derive no pleasure from en-
t%ertaining your husbands friends.
You'd rather pick out your own
presents than run the risk of
having your husband buy you
something you don't need.
When your husband does buy
you something you wouldn't have
selected yourself, you return it.
You remind your husband OF
his duties as a host, when you
know he'd remember them himself
in a few minutes.
You say, ell have George do
so-and-so," instead of, I'll ask
George if he'll do so-and-so."
You aren't willing to let your
husband take credit for an
idea you were anxious to have
him think was his until it turned
out well.
You never ask your husbands
opinion about anything.
