NEW MANAGER FOR
CARLISLE COMPANY IS
WELL KNOWN IN NORTH
A. F. Zipf, recently elected to the
office of vice president and general
manager of the Carlisle Packing Com
pany, in which he has acquired an in
terest, is no stranger to the salmon
canning industry of Alaska, although
this is his first direct connection with
the producing end of the industry.
For many years he has been promi
nently engaged in the Alaska trans
portation business, with all phases of
which he is thoroughly familliar; and
it is doubtful if any other man of his
age has as broad and intimate a
knowledge of Alaska and Alaskan af
fairs in general. In view of this spe
cial knowledge, as well as his practi
cal business experience, it is expected
that his services to the Carlisle Pack
ing Company will be of exceptional
value.
Between tne nrst or tms year aim
the time he took up his present du
ties, Mr. Zipf was traffic manager of
the Pacific Steamship Company, prior
to which he had been for many years
associated with the White Pass &
Yukon route in a similar capacity.
Mr. Zipf is a native of Idaho, 47
years of age, and has been connected
with the transportation business prac
tically all his life, having started with
the Wells-Fargo Express Company in
San Francisco in 1889. He first went
to Alaska in 1898, in the service of
the Alaska Commercial Company, and
acted for a time as purser on Yukon
river steamers, later taking the posi
tion of agent at St. Michaels for the
Northern Commercial Company and
the Northern Navigation Company. In
all his previous positions he had made
a good record and is known as a
capable executive. His pleasing per
sonality has made him many friends
all over the territory, as well as in
the Puget sound region, who predict
his success in the salmon canning
business.
The Carlisle Packing Company is
one of the leading salmon canning
organizations, having large plants at
Cordova and the mouth of the Yukon
river, with both of which districts
Mr. Zipf is especially well acquainted,
in addition to the cannery on Lummi
island, Puget sound. The management
of the company has formerly been
handled personally by Frank Wright,
the president, who after years of
strenuous activity feels that he can
pass a part of the burden of respon
sibility on to younger hands, and is
confident that in Mr. Zipf he has
found he right man for the work.—

MILADY’S TRAPPINGS
BECOME MORE COSTLY
LONDON, Aug. 26 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—The trappings
which the fashionable Englishwoman
must have are becoming more luxuri
ous almost every week, the latest
instance being the dictum that um
brella and handbag must match.
Tortoise-shell and ivory fittings are
the favorite choice for silk umbrellas
and bags, and, with ivory, bottle
green silk is liked for its old-world
effect.
Both ivory and tortoise-shell are
costly, which may account for their
popularity, but ivory is the higher
priced. An umbrella fitted with a
solid stick, surmounted by a ball,
will cost $50, and a bag as much
more. Both umbrella and bag are,
as a rule, finished with the owner’s
initials, at an additional cost of $7.50.
In the country and at the seaside,
cretonne-covered sunshades, with
handbags to match, are popular. The
sunshades are domeshaped, and are
patterned with Chinese garden, pado
da, large bird and flower effects. Bags
commodious enough to carry a stock
* inette bathing suit, needlework, knit
ting or crochet, and even light
luncheon, accompany the sunshade,
the wearer slipping the composition
bracelet handle over her wrist.
MADBREN’S REPORTS
ON SULPHUR DEPOSITS
OF ALASKA PENINSULA
-♦
Many of the Aleutian islands, that
crescentic line of volcanic isles and
islets that stretches westward from
Alaska peninsula toward Asia, bear
deposits of sulphur of the type called
solfaratas. Sulphur claims have been
located at three places on these
islands and on the peninsula, one of
them in the crater of Makushin vol
cano on unalaska island. This peak,
w'hieh is about 6,000 feet high, is
capped by perennial snow and ice and
bears glaciers on its slopes down to
points about 2,500 feet above the sea.
The sulphur deposit is the only part
of the crater that is permanently free
from snow and ice, being kept so by
subterranean heat and by the dis
charge of hot sulphurous vapor, which
issues from vents in the rocks with a
loud roar. In this crater 10,000 to ,
15,000 tons of sulphur may be avail- '
able for mining. J
Another deposit ot suipnur is on
Akun island. It covers 15 or 20 acres
and contains about 1,200 tons to the ,
acre. Still another is on Stepovak
bay, on the south shore of Alaska
peninsula.
A report on these deposits by A. G.
Maddren has just been published by j
the United States Geological Survey, j
department of the interior, in a
pamphlet entitled “Sulphur Deposits
and Beach Placers of Southwestern
Alaska” (Bulletin 692-E), an advance
chapter of the survey’s annual bulle
tin on the mineral resources of
Alaska, 1917.
Gold Placers on Kodiak Island
Mr. Maddren examined also the
deposits of placer gold in the beach
sands on Kodiak island, where min
ing has been carried on for 30 years,
and where the value of the annual
output of gold has ranged from $3,000
to $10,000. He sketches the geology
of the island and describes the beach
deposits that contain the gold and
their mode of origin, as well as the
methods used in mining. Here the
sea has done for the gold miner the
work that is done inland by streams—
it has assorted and concentrated
particles of gold which were derived
from the bluffs that border the beach
for miles along the island. The
storm surf along the coast is power- j
ful enough to move boulders that j
weigh tons, and the play of the waves
concentrates the fine gold in patches
that yield good returns to the miner.
Mr. Maddren’s reports can be ob
tained free of charge on application
to the director of the Geological Sur
vey at Washington, D. C.
HUMOROUS INCIDENT
OF HUN OCCUPATION
LIEGE, Aug. 29 (by mail).—One of
| the humorous incidents of the Ger
man occupation of this city which
now are being described is that of
the arrest by German police of a par
rot on the complaint that it had re
peatedly called out, “Down with the
Bodies.” According to the story the
| parrot was kept prisoner for a month.
The woman who owned it finally con
vinced the German authorities that
the parrot could not pronounce “B”
and the bird was released.
It's the flavor and the grain which
make the bread at the City Bakery
famous.
