Hardy Miner Wins
Bride From Ozarks
If Mary Johnston needed further
inspiration for the sequel to “To
Have and to Hold” the passengers of
one of the recent steamers could pos
sibly have furnished it. Out of the 65
passengers 58 of them were women,
some attached and some without any
encumbrance but all looking for their
man. Not that these.women were
marketable nor were they forced to
take the trip to Anchorage but
came of their own volition. There
were women wearing the smile of
youth, others attempting to; women
with dark and curly hair, and a few
j of the peroxide type; there were tall
and angular women in the party and
a scattering of the kind that are chos
en for the artist’s model. But there
was one particularly voluptuous maid
■ en who was the personification of pur
j ity and innocence and to whom mignt
be applied “where perhaps some beau
| ty lies—The cynosure of neighboring
; eyes.”
Men are rude and did rubber but in
this instance her fresh beauty was a
: valid excuse. Mary Robinson came
direct to Anchorage from the Ozark
hills, nor did she show the strain of
travel, for her eyes were as clear as
her mountain streams and her rosy
tinted cheeks the envy of the women.
Her hair and the cut of her clothes
spoke of Jasper county and were a
style of their own but worn with the
simple easy grace of a mountain girl.
Unsophisticated, and ignorant of the
ways of Alaska life she displayed a
timidity that appeals to men in every
walk of life and 50 bewhiskered, hor
ny handed manly men sprang to her
assistance. But it was left to a na
tive of Copenhagen wearing a red
shirt coat and equally red tinted mus
tache to win the honor of carrying her
old-time carpet bag up the treacher
i ous gang plaltk. This same gallant
was the further envy of his friends
when he assisted her into the automo
1 bile and directed the driver to take
her to the Crescent hotel where her
sweetheart was waiting.
Otis Skinner recently made a rich
strike on Hungryman creek after five
years of prospecting and immediately
sent for his mountain sweetheart. Mr.
and Mrs. Skinner took the launch Hus
tler for McDougal and will spend
their honeymoon and incidentally the
winter on Hungryman creek.
ALASKA’S TONNAGE
FOR THE YEAR 1916
For the calendar year 1916 it is es
timated that 600,000 cargo tons will
represent the freight movement to and
from Alaska. Of this total the port
of Seattle will handle 400,000 tons, the
port of Tacoma 150,00 tons and vari
ous other ports 50,000 tons.
Segregated another way, Seattle’s
total will be made up of 300,000 tons
northbound and 100,000 tons south
bound. Tacoma’s total will be made
up by 125,000 tons southbound, very
largely copper ore, and 25,000 tons
northbound. The balance represents
the canned salmon trade to San Fran
cisco on sailing ships and the small
amount of northbound shipments from
both San Francisco and Portland,t Or.
POPULAR STEWARD OF
WATSON TO BE MARRIED
(Cordova Times)
On the return of the steamshij) Ad

place the culmination of a romance of

married at St. James Cathedral to
Miss Margaret Teresa Ryan, of Rose
mont, Pa. The couple have been
sweethearts for ten years and Miss
Ryan is now making the journey
across the continent to meet her fu
ture husband, when the Watson re
turns to Seattle. The wedding will
take place on September 2 and the

AERIAL SERVICE FOR
THE MINING CAMPS
(Cordova Times)
An aerial freight service to the dis
tant and isolated mining camps of
Alaska will be a rapid development
from the proposed aerial mail route,
in the opinion of E. Wann, of Chisana.
Wann is a mining operator of the
north who is in Seattle on his first
trip out in three years, says the Seat
tle Times.
“The chief trouble with many of the
excellent mining camps of northern
Alaska,” said Wann today, “is that
supplies are too high to justify work
ing for normal returns. Mining men
of Chisana calculate that their raw
food, which they prepare themselves
costs in excess of $2 per person each
day. An ordinary meal at a road
house costs nearly as much. Trans
portation is the big problem.
“An aeroplane carrying 1,000 or so
pounds of freight would be a practi
cal means of getting supplies to the
distant camps. Where now it takes
six days to get supplies from the near
est distributing point to Chisana such
an aerial route would make the trip
possible in a few hours. I believe that
if the aerial mail route is successful,
the next step will be an aerial freight
service.”
PINCHOT LOOSE AGAIN!
(Railway and Marine News)
Secretary Lane should not worry
over the attack of Gifford Pinchot, as
that man is probably the most insin
cere political fakir who has ever ap
peared in public life. The fact that
the press of the country almost unit
edly passed Pinchot’s attack up by
placing it next to the butter and
cheese reports, is an indication that
Pinchot has lost standing with the
newspaper men, although he control
led conservation utterances of such
publications as the Saturday Evening
post, Collier’s Weekly, Hampton’s and
dozens of daily papers too numerous
to mention. But the one great fact
will always stand forth, that for ten
long years Pinchot exaggerated the
value of the timber on the Chugach
forest reserve in Alaska and today the
government is building a railroad
through that reserve and importing
all of its lumber from Oregon or
Washington. Pinchot has failed mis
erably in his assault upon Lane, and
with each year his failure is going to
be more pronounced.
