In a recent issue of the Editor and
Publisher, a picture of Fred J. Wilson,
formerly editor of the Yukon Sun, of
Dawson, appears, together with an ar
ticle, telling of his having been made
general manager of the International
News Service.
In part, the article is as follows:
“From the time he edited the Yukon
Sun and the Dawson Daily News, in
the Far North, Mr. Wilson has been
one of the most active men in the
newspaper profession, having covered
some of the notable news events of the
country. He followed the outlaw,
Harry Tracy, through Oregon for the
Portland Journal. He was connected
with the Chicago Journal and the Am
erican, and was three years with the
New York Herald, after which he en
tered the Hearst service in Chicago,
coming from that city to the New
York American.
"He covered the Rosenthal trial and
the execution of the four gunmen, was
on the Mexican border during the first
burst of trouble with the republic to
the south, and was one of the first
men on the ground to handle the in
surrection in the coal fields of Trini
dad, Colorado.
“When he received the call to re
enter the Hearst service, he was suc
ceeded as general manager of the Pa
cific Coast News Service by J. W.
Partridge."

The ore deposits of the Prince Wil
liam Sound region may be grouped
broadly into two classes — copper de
posits and gold bearing quartz lodes.
The mineral associations in both gold
and copper deposits are in general
the same, so that the copper mines
produce large amounts of gold or sil
ver or both, and copper sulphide is
present in small amounts in many of
the gold quartz veins.
The known productive mines on
Prince William Sound in 1915 include
four copper mines and five gold mines.
A much larger quantity of copper ore
than gold quartz was mined and treat
ed, and the total value of the metals
produced from the copper ores was
about five times that obtained front
the gold quartz ores The value of
the total mineral production of the
Prince William Sound, region in 1915
was $1,340,000 as compared with $1,
200,000 in 1914.
The above information as well as a
detailed description of the mines and
prospects visited, is contained in a
report entitled "Mining on Prince Wil
liam Sound, Alaska," by B. L. Johnson,
recently issued by the United States
geological survey, department of the
interior, as Bulletin 42-1).

CART. LATHROP INSTALLS
AUTOMATIC TICKET SELLER.
Always on the lookout for any de
vice which will add to the convenience
of his patrons, Captain A. E. Lathrop
of the Empress theatre has installed j
an automatic ticket seller, which is
viewed with admiration and awe by
all the patrons.
When a theatre-goer applies for
tickets at the window, and signifies
the number of tickets wanted, the
young lady in charge of the cash
presses several buttons. There is a
whirr of a motor, and presto; the cor
rect number of tickets is within easy
reach and the cashier has the money,
The machine is especially useful on
nights when there is a big rush, as
the tickets are delivered as rapidly as
the patrons can pass the window.
Captain Lathrop has purchased two
of these machines, one of which will
be installed at his Valdez theatre.—
