bar examination before Judge
J. W. Harding, and an exam
ining board consisting of At
torneys John A.Hellenthal, R.
E. Robertson and G. C. Winn,
United States Marshal Albert
White, of the First Division,
was admitted recently to the
Alaska bar. Mr. White has*
been studying law for more
than two years.
Wrecked on the rocky north
western coast of Unamak Pass
recently, the lumber-laden
freight vessel Alloway finally
reached the end of its career.
The cutter Chelan found the
Alloway piled up on the beach,
at the foot of a thousand foot
cliff, after searching for the
derelict ship for 36 hours in a
dense fog. The decks were
awash, the cargo broken loose
and floating in the breakers
about the ship, and the entire
hull was full of water. The
ship is a total loss, salvage be
ing impossible. The next east
erly gale will probably com
plete the destruction of the
vessel.
That the violent earthquakes
felt in the Interior last month
had their origin in the Dry
Creek country, about 80 miles
southwest of Fairbanks was
the word brought to Fairbanks
recenty by Fritz Stromberger,
trapper, whose cabin is locat
ed in the heart of the disturbed
area. The earthquakes are be
lieved by Mr. Stromberger to
have resulted from a slipping
of a fault running along the
bed of Dry Creek. This corrob
orates the theory advanced
the day following the most vio
lent of the tremblors, by Dean
Patty, of the Alaska College,
who said that in the absence
of reports of volcanic disturb
ances on the Alaska Peninsula
it was probable that the
quakes originated from a fault
adjustment in the Alaska
range. The shocks on Dry
Creek, which is in the foot
hills of the range, were ex
tremely violent, Mr. Strom
berger said.
The body of Gus Heiderich,
an inmate of the Pioneer Home
at Sitka,was found recently at
the foot of Mt. Verstovia, by
Peter Sing and Louis Simpson.
His coat, hat and and one shoe
was off and the body was
frozen solid. His hands, part
of his face and the left should
er were partially eaten by
birds.
Noel Wien, Fairbanks aviator,
is planning on making the
long and hazardous flight to
the North Cape of Siberia, 500
miles northwest of Nome. The
flight is to be made to bring
a load of furs from the ice
locked vessel Ellis F., which is
frozen in nine miles from Cape
North. The vessel is of Ameri
can registry and has been held
fast in the ice since early last
summer with a cargo of fur
aboard and the owners are
anxious to get the pelts to the
states on a rising fur market.
Such a flight as Wien con
templates has never been made
before. It involves crossing
Bering Strait from Nome to
hit the Siberian coast until
North Cape is reached. The
aviator must gamble with the
weather and landing condit*
ions after leaving Nome.
