BROOKS TELLS A
GOOD BEAR
STORY
(Cordova Times)
Probably no man in the north is so
well informed on Alaska as Dr. Al
fred H. Brooks, of the geological sur
vey, and he has a fund of pleasant
stories about his wide experiences. A
late one he gathered up last fall while
outside. He had occasion to visit a
summer instruction camp of militia
and among other things learned how
to pitch a tent—found he had been
doing it wrong all these years he has
been camping on the plains and gla
ciers of Alaska. On returning from
the camp one of his friends, hearing
him exclaim his recently acquired
knowledge demanded to know whether
or not these young men had taught
him how to build a camp fire, to
which he replied, “ No, they told me I
hadn’t advanced far enough to take
up fire building.
Dr. Brooks says there is an unusu
al demand for chrome, which is used
in the manufacture of hard steel,
which may result in the development
of the chrome iron deposits near Sel
dovia. He has made some inquiry
about recent mineral finds in the Nu
ka bay region, and was very much in
terested to hear of the possibility of
locating high grade copper at Thumb
cove.
On hearing the story of the bears
on Kodiak having lost most of the
hair on their backs as the result of ir
ritation caused by pumice ash, which
blows up in great clouds with every
wind since the Katmai eruption, the
geologist expressed sorrow for bruin.
“It must be tough on a bear to have
a hairelss back in winter.” Some one
suggested that he ought to take the
matter up with Congressman Humph
rey, author of the game law, and have
a bill passed through congress provid
ing a supply of hair restorer for the
bears, one bottle to be given to each
licensed guide, with instructions how
to apply the same on unfortunate
bears. Brooks said the matter was
more or less out of his line and sug
gested that J. L. McPherson, of the
Alaska bureau, should co-operate with
Humphrey.
BIG STARS AT EMPRESS.
Quite beyond the comprehension of
ordinary mortals is the enormity of
its figures in which motion picture
stars hold common conversation now
a-days. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars are apparently of no more mean
ing than simply hundreds of thou
sands of dollars are apparently of no
more meaning than simply hundreds
to most folk, and the late lamented
Booth and Barrett and Jefferson would
be appalled at the sums which present
day stars of considerably less magni
tude are said to receive for their per
formances before the camera. Screen
stars receive as much as $1,000 daily,
or $7,000 for the week. And yet some
of these stars can be seen right here
in Anchorage, at the Empress theatre
for the small sum of 25 cents, when it
is known that quite a number of the
features shown at the Empress show
in eastern cities ranging in price of
admission from 25 cents to $1.00.
Captain Lathrop’s extraordinary busi
ness trip outside recently placed him
in a position whereby he closed con
tracts for the very best motion pic
tures possibly obtainable for this ter
ritory, and these pictures will be pre
sented to the Empress theatre goers
from time to time regardless of cost.
This Saturday evening, the usual
comedy and drama, with Pathe Week
ly events of interest will be on the
program. For Sunday and Monday,
David Higgins in his original role in
the famous racing play in four excit
ing acts entitled “ His Last Dollar,”
together with a scenic and Pathe
Weekly will be the features. 10-7-lt
