parts, the 101 Bison drama The She
Wolf. This wonderful production
features Grace Cunard and Francis

She Wolf is a stirring drama,
throbbing with human interest and
electric with realistic enorgy so that
it cannot fail to prove a winner.
The Joker Comedy, Mike and Jake
Among the Canibals, is of the farce
variety and is relied upon to raise
the laughs at the entertainment.
This program is in Class A. No. 1
and should not be missed by movie
goers.

Word was received in Nome yest
erday from Valdez that the cahie
shlp Burnside had just arrived upon
the scene of the break in the Sitka
Valdez cable and if weather condi
toins remain favorable the break
would ’ be repaired in a very short
time. The , cable has now been
down over a month, during which
time messages have been relayed by
Sitka-Cordova wireless to Valdez 01
as in some cases over the Dominion
line. The latter line has however
been out of commission for^p goon
time also, and the radio has been
relied upon solely to fill the breax.
What delayed the Burnside all this
time is somewhat mysterious but it
is reported that continuous storms
have prevailed in the Gulf of Al
aska and the theory held by the
sigual corps men1 here is to the effect
that knowing that nothing could hi
accomplished in the terrible storm
that raged, the cableshlp was leisur
ely about proceeding to Alaskan
waters. The cableshlp will now pick
up the cable in Valdez harbor and
with its instruments locate the ap
proximate distance of the break
sailing there it will grapple for the
broken- ends; those are buoyed anc
finally spliced.

Yesterday afternoon a shocking
and fatal accident occurred in the
Charles Reed machine shop wherein
a young Russian named Deo Wat
kin who has been working for Reed
for some time met an exceedingly
sudden death. It appears Watkin
was engaged in drilling a hole in a
tank wherein had filtered some I
acetylene gas, and on his striking a
match presumably to aid an inspec
tion of the work, the top of the
tank exploded striking Watkin in
the head and spattering his brains
over the ceiling as the top of hts
head was smashed with the explo
sion, death being instantaneous.
The accident occurred upstairs
over the machinery room of the
shops. There were two tanks in
which was water, used for the pur
pose of balancing as in a syphon
the pressure on an acetylene tank
down below. Alongside the tank
lay the cot whereon usually slept
Watkin, and after the explosion had
done its fatal work the man's body
reclined at half length upon the
bed, with his feet resting on the
fioor in his fatal sleep, while his
head cruelly crushed by the evplo
sicn, lay upon the pillow.
Reed was below when the explo
sion occurred; he heard the force of
it for it burst through the ceiling
smashing the wood work immediate
ly above the tank, and smashed the
glass in the window frame out on
the sidewalk below. He ran at once
upstairs and over ,to the unfortunate
man, but saw that he was beyond
any human aid, death being evident
ly instantenauos. Medical help was
summoned, but as stated, Watkin
was beyond any such assistance.
Nothing much is known about the
deceased beyond tho fact that lit
was a native of Russia and had leti
that country at the outbreak of the
war. He obtained employment with
Roed shortly after his arrival at
Nome and was a handy intelligent:
man. He was studious in his habits
and made a great effort with con
siderable success to acquire a
knowledge of English.
When undertaking the work ot
drilling the holes, Reed stated he
duly Impressed upon him the need
of care and tho danger from lights
in the event of any gas being in the
tank. Unfortunately In the pursuit
of his task, the man forgot this in
junction with the fatal results above
recorded.
U. S. Commissioner Frawiey and
ex-officio coroner of the district
when notified hurried to the scene
and District Attorney Saxton, Mar
shal Jordan and Deputy Marshal
Holland also made, an examination
of 'the premises. It Is understood
from the obvious facts in the case
as to how the man met his end,
there will be no inquest held on
the body.
The Ueed machine shop has han
1 an untoward experience this month,
a few days ago being the scene of
i fire from an over heated flue.
On another occasion a few years
I ago an explosion occurred when the
: head of a boiler being used as a
tank blew out In the premises now
occupied by fctipek’s paint shop, hut
fortunately without any harm beir.g
. done to any one at that time.
