very little mining in progress at the j
present time, but that a number of ,
outfits are preparing to operate dur

are mining on Wilbur creek and do
ing prettly well, * the Patterson
property being especially good.

Martha Clow. He is enroute to
Nome, where he expects to enerage !

Assistant District Attorney E. B.
Collins came down from Fairbanks
yesterday on a hurried business trip
and returned to his headquarters
during the afternoon on the gascar.
He had intended arriving here in
time to meet the governor and his
party, but was delayed enroute as
the result of his steamer getting on
a bar. He made the trip down river
on the Martha Clow.
Fred Keil, who has a homestead
and fox farm on the shores of the
Tanana river, a short distance above
Nenana. was in town this week for
a brief visit. He reports that his
potato crop fell far short of ex
pectations on account of unfavor
able weather conditions. The spuds
are good but the yield was very
xig’nt.
Arrivals from the lower river re
port the arrival recently of about
25 natives at Minto lake, where
they are now engaged in catching
muskrats, young and old The
natives are said to have invaded
the district from Hot Springs upon
the assurance that the skins would
be bought from them at a good
figure. In view of the fact that the
season is now closed, local trappers
and fur buyers are registering their
objection.
If you want your fur robes, caps
or coats fixed, bring them in before
Mrs. D'Orsay leaves for the States.

HISTORIC TOWER IS USED TO
FILM “CARNIVAL”
Filming Venice from the topmost
part of the loggietta of the classic
Campanile of St. Mark’s was the
unique experience of Harley Knoles
in the making of “Carnival”, his
elaborate screen spectacle recently
released by United Artists. Incident
ally, it marked the first time that a j
motion picture camera has been per
mitted within the precincts of the
famous medieval tower. This pro
duction will be the feature at the
Coliseum tonight.
The Campanile, which towers high
above St. Marks Square, is over
i one thousand years old and is one
of the sights of Venice. It was built
1 originally as a sort of lighthouse
and lookout tower combined. Huge
iron baskets were attached to the
■ corners of the tower and filled at
night with oil-soaked material, so
that when lighted, they could be
i seen from the sea to guide the
Venetian ships safely into the har
bor. They were also used as look
out towers in those old times to
tell of the movements of alien
fleets and the approach of the ene
my.
• Venice, which is situated at the
head of the Adriatic, is made up of
more than a hundred little flat is
lands of mud or silt deposited by

i
the Po and other rivers, so that the
building of a tower in those days
was quite a feat of engineering.
Long piles were driven into the
marshy bottom and on these the
noted tower stands, as does, in fact
the whole city.
Only a few years ago the tower
fell, but was rebuilt with the same
old materials. Consequently when
Mr. Knoles asked permission to go
up in the tower he was at first re
fused. After much red tape and the
visiting of a number of city officials
the permission to photograph the
city from the top of the tower was
finally granted, but with certain re
strictions. First, the supervisor of
buildings must ascend the tower
with him and no one else could ac
company but the cameraman. To
gether the three of them made the
ascent round and round up the
steep ramps, entirely in darkness, as
there are no windows in the famous
old tower. Reaching the top the
camera was set up and everything
being in readiness, the gorgeouse
scenes which are shown in “Carni
val”, were taken.
