MISS WARE MARRIED
TO OSCAR MEYER IN

known and popular in Cordova and

ANCIENT RELIC FOUND
IN LAKE NEAR SEWARD
A hand-carved lamp of the pre
historic age of Alaska was brought
to Sewrard this morning by an old
time prospector, W. E. Johnson, and
exhibited at Borgen’s grocery, where
the relic of years ago excited unusual
attention.
The antique was found by Johnson
in eighteen feet of water in a lake off
Two Arm bay, about forty-five miles
southwest of Seward. Johnson was
unable to get his boat into the lake,
so he built a two-log raft. While pol
ing along the lake he looked down
through the clear water and sighted
the carveid stone lamp. For two days
Johnson attempted to raise the an
tique, which weighs about tw^enty-five
pounds and is eighteen inches long,
sixteen inches across, and from two
to five inches deep, center and sides.
The lamp is unique in another wray
from first inspection, inasmuch as an
image, presumably of an Indian, is
carved out from near the top of the
oil basin part of the lamp. The head I
is perfectly carved, eyes, cheeks, nose
and chin being wrell formed and pro
nounced. Around the sides of the
lamp and across the bottom are carv
ings very similar to those of Egyp
tian days, proving that the antique
is a find from the first age, the stone
age, and also that this part of the
continent wras inhabited before the
glacier formation took place. The
find is such that it will arouse the
interest of scientists, especially such
organizations as the Smithonian In
stitute.—Sew'ard Gateway.
