OCCURRENCES
Mrs. Chris Varn, a former Dawson
woman, died last month at Juneau of
the influenza.
Bob Leitch, of Dawson, is confined
to the hospital with a bad foot, from
which a toe was amputated.
Billy Peliter, for many years in the
stores of the commission at Anchor
age, has resigned and left for the
States.
T. E. Rivard, former publisher of the
Ketchikan Miner-Progressive, has
opened a real estate and job printing
plant in that city.
A number of Dawsonites are in the
hospital with spring colds. They have
no temperature and will probably be
out within a few weeks.
One hundred men have been started
to work surfacing the government
railway between Seward and Anchor
age. At Mile 9 the grade will be
widened and also at Mile 3.
The Pioneers of Anchorage have
boosted the auto fund to $400, which
with the amounts already raised in
other sections now gives over $1,000
for the purchase of a car for the home
at Sitka.
Only five of the teachers in the
schools of Ketchikan have signified
their intention of teaching in that cily
the coming winter, those leaving
claiming salaries were higher in the
States.
H. O. Beldon, a pioneer of Chena,
# died at Fairbanks recently. He was
r a native of New York and went to
Dawson in 1898, where he prospected
and cut wood in the Koyukuk. He
was in the store business at Cena w ith
Sunderbrook.
M. B. Chisholm, representing the
Mill & Mine Supply Company, is in
Ketchikan making a study of the sup
ply of pulp wood for a mill. He says
the first pulp mill will be located near
Ketchikan and will put a lot of money
in circulation in that city.
James Walter Stansfield, a long
time resident of Dawson, died recent
ly in Leeds, England, after a short
illness. Stansfield went to Dawson
with the great rush, and remained
there continuously until 1916, when
. he went to the front as a volunteer.
7 After reaching Europe he was trans

SCIENTISTS TO
EXPLORE OC
FOR FOODSTUFF
S. _
SAN FRANCISCO, .Tune 7 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The project to scien
tifically explore the resources of the
Pacific ocean will be further ad
vanced by the scientists who will
gather at Seattle June 17, 19 for the
fourth annual meeting of the Pacific
division of the American Association
for the Advancement of Science.
The immediate practical benefit to
be derived from this work, which will
require international co-operation, it
is said, will be the replacing of hit or
miss methods hitherto used in the
fishing industry which an orderly
procedure based on an acurate
knowledge of the ocean floar and
fauna.
“We shall be able to farm the
ocean,” said Winthrop W. Sargeant,
secretary of the California Academy
of Sciences
W. E. Allen, of the Scripps Institu
tion for Biological Research at La
Jolla, California, will present a paper
in the symposium on “The Animal
and Plant Resources of the North
Pacifio Ocean,” which will deal with
the relationship of the phyto plank
ton or floating plant life of the ocean
to its animal life. This will seek to
show that a knowledge of this “ocean
pasturage” is perhaps as important to
the conservation of the fisheries as
are the forage requirements of our
land species to the industry of stock
raising. The inaccessibility of the
ocean alone has prevented science
from contributing as much to the suc
cess of the former as to the later in
dustry.
Dr. D. T. MacDougal, director of the
desert labratory of the Carnegie In
stitution of Washington will present
a paper at the meeting in which a
discussion will be made of some of
the biological and physical barriers
which limit the distribution of plants.
Fourteen years ago a series of experi
ments wras begun by Dr. MacDougal in
which 200 species of plants from var
ious localities were introduced into
four stations, from the mountain tops
in Arizoan to the sea shore at the
coastal labratory of the Carnegie In
stitution of Washington, in order to
ascertain how plants are modified by
a chance of environment. The general
ization from these experiments will be
presented at the Seattle meeting
LINCOLN TA
TOBEUNV
LONDON, June 7 (by Associated
Press).—St. Gauden’s monument of
Abraham Lincoln, which has been pre
' sented by the American people to the
British people probably will be un
veiled this month, on the site of the
government in the Canning enclosure,
Westminister, facing the houses of
parliament.
The Anglo-American Society,
through which the gift has been made
and which is responsible for the ar
rangements of the unveiling, has in
vited Elihu Root to make the presen
tation of the statue during his forth
coming visit to Europe.
The statue is a replica of the bronze
monument of Abraham Lincoln in j
Lincoln park. Chicago, and represents i
President Lincoln in a standing posi
tion.
