SURVEY TO BE MADE OF
ALASKA COAST LINE.
The government will begin this year
a resurvey of the Pacific coast from
Mexico to Alaska, extending at some
point ten miles from shore, according
to recent announcements made in
San Francisco through the coast pilot
section of the coast and geodetic sur
vey service. The survey will prob
ably include wire drag work in the
smaller harbors of the coast for un
charted rocks. It is primarily a hunt
for submerged valleys and pinnacle
rocks. It is stated. Particular atten
tion will be paid to waters along the
Mendocino coast in northern Califor
nia, where there have been found
many abrupt holes 300 fathoms or
more in depth on a bottom otherwise
40 to 60 fathoms below the surface.
The work will be directed chiefly
from the coast and geodetic survey
steamer Surveyor, which is to be sent
around from the Atlantic coast very
soon.
-♦- ;
A meeting of the Cordova fire de- j
partment will be held on Thursday ^
evening, and a full attendance of the (
members is requested.

ODE TO AN OVERDRAFT.
Vhen In Bchool 1 learned addition,
ind learned subtraction, too;
ind 1 learned a lot of other stuff
'hat's helped me out, 'tis true.
Jut experience and learning
^ail to mitigate the pain
)f that phone call from the banker:
Bill, you’re overdrawn again."
..ong I studied plane geometry
n college, and 1 know
iome algebra and calculus—
dy brow is high and not low.
Jut professors never told me
Jf this melancholy strain
rhat my banker alwrays warbles:
‘Bill, you're overdrawn again."
When the lights are burning brightly,
tnd the cabaret is fine.
Who am 1 to spoil a party?
'Walter, crack a quart of wine!”
Phen a check I quickly scribble,
(Surely 1 can stand the strain).
But tomorrow brings the tidings:
'Bill, you're overdrawn again."
When T die and face St. T*eter
\t the shining golden gate,
lie will balance all my virtues
With my sins, and make me wait
rill he hands me out my statement,
Phen again he’ll make it plain
\s he sings the banker's anthem:
‘Bill, you’re overdrawn again."
