PROSPECTOR TO
WORKISOLATED
ARCTIC CLAIM
«» •
TANANA, Jan. 4 (by mall).—Bound
tov an isolated gold claim far to the
north, on the Arctic slope, a lone
prospector, Martin Josephson, left
here today with his dog team to mush
in the half dark Arctic winter over
the difficult snow trail to Betties,
Alaska, and on farther into the coun
try beyond the polar line.
Tanana prospectors say Josephson’s
trip is one of the .longest ever under
taken by one man alone. Josephson,
however, has sought for gold before
along the Arctic, from the Kobuk to
the Mackenzie countries, and has
even prospected in Greenland, so his
friends here are not going to worry
about his safety.
Josephson’s gold claim is on the
Anactuvuk river, a tributary of the
Colville river, on the Arctic slope.
There are no white men or Indians
or Eskimos on the Anactuvuk, Jo
sephson said before he left here.
After leaving here Josephson will
have to travel 112 miles to Alatna
before he finds any white residents.
There is a roadhouse at Alatna, the
first roadhouse on the Betties trail
north from here. Frftm Alatna Jo
sephson will “mush on” fiftyuthree
miles to Betties. At Betties he ex
pects to get a gasoline drill»which he
shipped in last summer.
After leaving Betties Josephson will
continue his lonely journey 110 miles
to the headwaters of John river. Even
then he will not have crossed the di
vide between the Arctic and Pacific
slopes. At the John river the pros
pector will stop and rest and spend a
few weeks hunting and trapping while
waiting for warm weather.
When warm weather comes Joseph
son will take an Indian or two into
his employ and climb up across the
divide to his claim. He must take
fuel with him, for it is said his claim
is above the timber line.e If he finds
gold he remain on his claim some time.
Also he may come out this season.

HOW WESTERN 1
DIVISION WON I
ns HONORS |
CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, Feb. 10. :
(by Associated Press.)—How the
346th Field Artillery, which left tor
France as part of the “Wild West”
Division displayed such efficiency
upon arriving in France that the or
ganization was relieved from the di
vision and designed as "artillery” was
told by men of hte commanad upon
tbeir return here.
Since September, 1918, the 346th
comprising men of the Pacific Coast,
has not been a member of the divi
sion but equipped with motor-drawn
French 75s, have been “army artil
lery.”
Soon after the regiment arrived in
France it was ordered to Souge, an
artillery training camp, where the
men received five weeks’ intensive
artillery instruction. So high was the
standard set by the Americans that
they were given their new title, armed
by but one other outfit in the United
States expeditionary force—the 301st.
While the 75s were loaned to the
Americans by France it was specified
that any repairs to the recoil mechan
ism should be done by Frenchmen.
This part of the famous Frenh gun is
a military secret and, despite the
frendship between the two nations,
France insisted that the gun be re
paired by her soldiers.
Officers of the 346th said here today
that so delicate are the recoil fea
tures of the cannon that a glass of
water, placed on the barrel, would
not spill a drop as the gun dropped !•
back into placement following fire.
No French 76, the officers stated, had ji
ever been captured by the Germans §
Without breach mechanism being •:
wrecked beyond the possibility of re- jj
pair or duplication.
