SWARMS OF MOSQUITOES
ASSAIL LOSI PROSPECTOR
More than one man In the wilds of
Alaska has become demented and lost
his life through the effects of the as
saults of the mosquitoes. Such, for
tunately, was not the case of Lewis
Sheguin, of Rampart, who was lost in
tho Innoko this summer, although his
mind was wandering when he was
finally picked up, and he was in a
fearful condition physically.
Johnny Barret, who tells the story
of the man's adventure, was In com
pany with Fred Williams and Dougal
Murray when they discovered She
guin's poling boat on the Innoko river
at a point about sixty miles below the
north fork. This was on July 28.
They reported the case of the lost
man and a search of half a day was
made by the Oregon Kid and Prank
Kern. Besides finding a place where
the missing man had built a smudge,
they secured no trace of him.
Sheguin, it seems, was poling up the
Innoko a few days before, when he
decided that a longer pole would be
more convenient than the one he was
using. Accordingly, he beached his
boat, took an ax to cut a new pole,
and a small pail in which to pick a
supply of blueberries.
While searching for his pole and
filling his pall with berries he became
turned around and, accordingly, when|
ho started back to the river, the
stream was not where he had left it
After several attempts to reach tho
river, he stopped to take his bearings.
Some hills appeared in the distance,
which he judged to be the Innoko
hills and he laid a course for them.
They were In reality the Muddy river
hills, and it was the Muddy river that
Sheguin eventually came to.
It looked like the Innoko to him so
he built a raft and floated down It.
Eventually he came out on the Innoko
forty miles below Dlssakaket and
there Mike Connolly and Nels Perra
picked him up. He was then In a
rather pitiable condition, after his nino
day's wanderings through the mos
quitoes without food other than blue
berries.
When he left the raft Shegain had
but two matches on his person. Ac
cordingly, to keep a smudge going
Sheguin built It In his blueberry pail
and carried it with him day after day
across country and down river. Hei
was still in possession of his ax when '
found.
Sheguin was taken up river to Dls
sakaket, arriving there Just after ?
Johnny Ilarret and party came In
from above and had told tho story of
finding the boat. ? Tanana Tribune. ,

Advices from Fairbanks by wire
state that a great many men are slip
ping out ot town in small boats and
other ways more or less on a quiet

that his brother Edward, was leaving

Iditarod is in or close to the Idit

Otter seems to be the principal creek.
Between 150 and 200 men were report*
ed working there the middle of Aug

Some curious and Interesting astro
nomical phenomena nre recorded In
the old Chinese annals which go back
to a great antiquity. In C87 B. C. a
night Is mentioned without clouds nnd
without stars. This may perhaps re
fer to a total eclipse of the sun. but
If so the ecllime Is not mentioned In
the Chinese list of eclipses. In the year
141 It. C. It Is stated that the sun and '
moon appeared of a deep red color dur- I
iug five days, a phenomenon which (
caused great terror among the peo- ?
pie. In "4 B. C. it Is related that a
star' as large as the moon appeared
and was followed In Its motion by sev- j
eral stars of ordinary slie. This
probably refers to an unusually large
bolide, or fire ball. In 38 B. C. a fall
of meteoric stones Is recorded.
