PARIS. — Lieutenant Nungesser

French air fighters in the numbei
of German machines downed during
the war, is shortly to make hi;
debut in newspaper work. He ha;
been officially credited with bring
ing down 31 German airplanes.
His new colleagues hope his aebu'
will not have the same result a«
did the beginning of his air career
After obtaining his commission
Nungesser was ordered to report a'
a flying field near Nancy. Arriving
in sight of the field, Nungesser be
gan executing many loop-the-loops
upside down stunts, sliding on tht
wings, and all the acrobatics knowt
and unknown to flying men.
Landing at last, his superior of
ficer said to him sternly: "Greer
one, acrobatics are ail right in theii
place, but we shall have to see you
perform them before the Germans.'
Nungesser asked his mechanic to
fill his gasoline tank, and half an
hour later he was off to the Ger
man lines. Arriving over the trench
es, he repeated his performnce, in
full view of his comrades and also
of the officer in charge.
"There you are,"’ Nungesser said
to the colonel. "It is done."
"Fifteen days in the brig.” or
words to that effect, said the col
onel.

GENERAL OUTFITTING
JOHNSON’S STORE Front Street
i AS STOREKEEPER
! TO MANAGE MINE
—
Convincing evidence of the fact
that the coal mining industry is as
suming proportions in Interior Alas
ka is found in the announcement,
made late yesterday, that George
Markus has resigned his position as
general storekeeper of the Alaskan
Engineering commission in order
that he may devote his entire time
to the management of the Healy
River Coal corporation. The resig
nation will be effective as soon as
Mr. Markus* successor arrives from
Anchorage.
Regarding the appointment of a
successor, Engineer-in-Charge Fred’k
D. Browne informed a representa
tive of The News this morning that
he had requested Chairman Mears
to send a man in from the coast to
take charge of the store. This ac
tion was taken, he explained, with
a view to getting a man experi
enced in the work and familiar with
Anchorage methods. He suggested
that the Cooney stage would reach
Talkeetna within a short time and
that it would be possible for the
new storekeeper to make the trip
back with that conveyance without
loss of time.
Mr. Markus entered the employ
of the Alaskan Engineering commis
sion about eighteen months ago,
coming to Nenana from Fairbanks,
where he held a position as manager
of the hardware department of the
Northern Commercial company for
a number of years. Recently be
became interested.in the Healy River
Coal corporation; is one of the in
corporators, in fact, and his asso
ciates have prevailed upon him to
take active charge of the work. One
of the partners is already in the
States, a second is enroute, and
August i’c.erson, who is now man
aging the mine, will leave for the
Outside as soon as Mr. Markus is
relieved from his present duties as
general storekeeper.
The output of the company’s
mine, known as the Burns mine, was
something over a thousand tons last
month, and it will be greater this
month, in spite of the fact that con
siderable dead work is in progress.
The mine employs about twenty men
at present and shipments of coal
are made frequently to the local
bunkers of the Alaskan Engineering
commission, with occasionally a car
for private consumers.
When Mr. Markus leaves his pres
ent place to take charge of the
coal business, he will make his head
quarters at the mine, but will be a
freouent visitor in town in connec
tion with his duties as manager.

just received.
