CANDY
IN DEMOS HAS i
TAKEN LONG SHOT
The News is in receipt of the
following newsy letter from John
Demos, former well-known resident
of Nenana, who left for the States
by way of the Fairbanks trail a
short time ago. The letter is dated
at Ranger, Texas, and was written
on December 18. The company he
refers to is the Ranger-Sipe Springs
Oil company, capitalized at half a
million dollars, and of which At
torney S. 11. Milwee, former Fair
Ibanksan, is secretary-trustee. The
iletter follows:
1 “I arrived in Ranger the 15th,
|and have been spending the time
jsince looking over the country. This
| is the best country 1 ever saw and
the livest to make money in. Rang
ier is a town of around thirty thou
jsand or more and is growing very
; fast, with brick buildings going up
I.some fifteen in number, ranging
i from two to six stories in height,
inow under construction, and money
I circulating a-plenty.
“Lots of money is being made out
i of oil, and development is being ex
|tended all the time.
J “I have made an investment in
; the stock of the Ranger-Sipe Sprint's
Oil company. This company is or
igani/.ed by Dr. Mihvee of Dallas
and S. H. Milvvee, who used to be
| in Alaska, together with some more
, oldtimers of this state. I have
•made a thorough investigation of
the company, and I believe its man
Iagement is’ square and all rijihf•
[Mr. T. K. Rea, one of the organ
i izers, is a wealthy and responsible
cattleman of Hamilton county. Dr
'.Mihvee is the leading X-ray special
list of this country, and lives it
[Dallas; also Dr. Rea lives at Dallas,
|where he is a practicing physician,
land tl • 'dance of them are all
[well known in this state. I have
(looked over some of the holdings
■of the company, with the result that
1 think enough of it to take a
!chance, and believe that the com
pany will make good and that they
| are in a good field. 1 just got a
'wire from Bert Spencer, a member
of the company, who is now at Sipe
^Springs, saying that another well
had come in close up to the com
pany’s holdings. This makes it look
'still better. Spencer is an old
timer of the North, having been in
Dawson and Fairbanks.

! BIG BLAST MOVES
! IONS OF ROCK ON
GRADE IN CANYON
The first big shot in the grading
operations in the Nenana canyon,
where railroad construction work is
rapidly assuming large proportions,
was set off recently by George
Gatto & Co., who have a large rock
contract south of the end of steel.
The shot was a complete success, it
being estimated that approximately
2,500 yards of rock was broken up
and moved by the explosion.
As a preliminary to the big shot,
ja tunnel two feet wide and three
i feet high was driven into the hill a
' distance of 25 feet, and the end of
I the tunnel crosscut a distance of
j four feet on each side, making an
; apartment 10x2x3 feet. Nearly a
ton of explosive was used to load
the coyote hole, which was elec
trically discharged.
' Victor Young & Co., Herman
1 Vlagnussen & Co. and a few other
I contractors are now engaged in
preparing coyote holes, which will
soon be ready for loading.

Paris churches that were removed
to places of safety during: the bom
bardment of the capital by German
long-range guns are being rapidly
replaced.
The wonderful medieval 'glass of
Notre Dame and the Sainte-Chapelle
has already been returned, and now
the windows of five other old
churches, Saint Gervais, Saint Sev
erin, Saint Merry, Saint Ktienne du
Mont, and Saint Germain l’Auxer
rois, are to be put back. These are
all very fine specimens of Renais
sance art.
The windows of only one of the
old Paris churches were seriously
damaged by the w»ar, those of Saint
Denis, which were partially shat
tered by the explosion at Cour
neuve.
