Scarcity of Men In Lower Country—
Two Dredges Have Good size
Clean-Up.
Frank Manley, the oldtime Interior
operator, who last year re-entered
the Alaska mining field, following an
| absence of many years in California
J during which time he was, and is
{ still associated with various oil. pro
j jects,„ was among the recent arrivals
i in Seward, en route to the States.
; During the short period, Mr. Manley
j was in Seward, he stated his opera
tions in the Iditarod this season
were confined solely to prospect work
) on his numerous holdings, and the
construction of a ditch.
Next year lie will put in a large
| hydraulic outfit and begin actual op
I orations. The drag line outfit which
I he purchased from the Alaska Rail
j road last year, has beea used with
remarkable success, notwithstanding
‘ his going against expert advice, and
will be used, when operations begin,
i
j for stacking up the tailings. He has
1 had 28 men working in the crew this
year but his ordinary operating crew
' will -i*e about £1.
Lack of Men In Iditarod.
| Due to the Iditarod workings be
j ing at the extreme lower end of the
i Yukon river, there has been a con
siderable shortage of men. A total
census of the region the past sum
mer could be placed conservatively
at 150 men.
Two dredges operated on Otter
Creek this season, and from every
indication there will be good ground
for the dredges to over-work for the
coming seven or eight years. It is
estimated each of these dredges
have cleaned up $75,000 to $100,000
this season.
Mr. Manley departed from Seward
on the steamer Yukon and will re
main at his home in California over
the winter, coming North again in
the early spring.
He was quite interested in the
Nuka Bay district and would have
liked to have taken a run down
there but time did not permit dur
ing his visit in Seward.
PAINTING, BELIEVED A
VANDYCK OF CHARLES
I, FOUND IN OSLO
OSLO, Sept. 25. (/P)—Art circles
here are greatly interested in the
- discovery of a painting which experts
are inclined to believe to be a por
trait by Vandyck of King Charles I
of England.
The picture was purchased by an
Oslo solicitor recently. It depicts the
king at about the age of 35, dressed
in a suit of dark velvet with a broad
collar of fine lace, and with hair
falling in long curls over his shoul
ders.
The owner has had photographic
copies made and despatched them to
every famous gallery in Europe
where contemporary portraits of
Charles I are known to be. Expert
at these galleries are reported to
have unanimously pronounced that
the original is not a copy of any
knotvn portrait of the king.
TESTS MADE TO ELIMINATE
JUICE REFINING IN THE
MANUFACTURE OF SUGAR
HAVANA, Sept. 25. P)—Manufac
ture of standard granulated sugar
direct from cane juice has been
proved a commercial possibility, tests
at Central Hershey, near Havana, in
dicate.
Milton S. Hershey, American cho
colate manufacturer and owner of
four sugar mills in Cuba, for sever
al years has been carrying on experi
ments seeking a- system workable
on a commercial scale which would
eliminate the raw sugar stage of re
fining the cane juice.
Last year a well knotvn chemist
and sugar expert carried on a se
ries of experiments which, officials
of the mills say, proved beyond a
doubt that direct manufacture of
white sugar on a large scale can be

BUILDER SEEKS SUITABLE
OWNER FOR HOUSE OF
ODD CONSTRUCTION
SEATTLE, Sept. 25. (JP)—A house
five feet nine inches wide at one
end and 16 feet at the other was
built on a lot 40 by 30 by 11 feet
here this summer by A. B. Wark,
contractor. An ordinance requiring
the house to be in line with others
on the two streets it faces was the
reason the structure took the shape
of a flatiron, Wark said.
The dwelling contains three fan
shaped rooms. In the rooms a dis
appearing breakfast nook, a reced
ing bed and a vanishing ironing board
were installed. The basement has
a combination laundry and garage.
Wark said he was trying to find
somebody the house would fit so
that he could sell it.
