in the Territory, and this is his
first visit to Nome.
Burnett was a member of the
Richard E. Byrd flying expedi
tion which based at Kings Bay,
Spitzfoergen and made the first
airplane flight to the North Pole
returning to Kings Bay, shortly
before the memorable flight of
the dirigible ‘‘Norge” from Spitz
bergen to Teller, Alaska, over
the Pole.
While not having any detailed
information at this time of the
Department’s plans for the devel
opment of aviation facilities in
Alaska, Inspector Brunett howev
er, felt confident that the Terri
tory could look forward in the
near future to much advance
ment both in the line of local
commercial business and interna
tional and airmail connections.
From Nome, Burnett is to go to
Kotzebue where he will inspect
the planes of the Ferguson Air
ways, operating out of that place.
Was Queen Alaska
Louise Sachen, who 20 years
ago thrilled New York by posing
as a gold miner’s daughter fresh
from the Alaskan wilds, was mar
ried in New York to John Vavlic,
a bartender. Difficulties resulted
when the Vev. Charles Stimac of
St. John’s Catholic church remem
bered the notority which the girl
gained when she was headlined
as “Queen of Alaska.” As a re
sult it took a conversation with
the Cathedral priest and the rous
ing of a probate jud/ge to fix it
up. Miss Sachen said that in 1917
she registered at her hotel as
from Koyukuk, Alaska, and that
she had just returned from Alas
ka. Then because she was lone- ■
some she said she called on a I
newspaper and the hoax then
grew as she kidded a reporter by
telling him she was the daughter
of a rich gold miner and saying:
“Pa gave me a big nugget and1
told me to go have a good time.”!
For days she carried front page
headlines and it was tiien discov-;
red her father was a city employe j
in Kansas City.
