INDICTMENT CASES TO
ANCHORAGE, May 27—There will
be no cases tried in Valdez before the
petit jury at this term of court ac
cording to Julien Hurley, assistant
district attorney, who returned to An
chorage last week from Valdez, where
he has been attending the term of
court there.
Most of the cases in which indict
ments were returned will be tried in
Anchorage. The cases not tried here
will be tried at a term of court to be
called at either Valdez or Corddva,
following the Anchorage term in June.
Several liquor cases will be tried in
Anchorage which were appealed from
the United States commissioner’s
court. The court will try a civil case
in Seward prior to the Anchorage
term.
Additional indictments returned by
the grand jury at the Valdez term of
court, since the last report appearing
here are: an indictment against Gus
Schustereid for perjury in which he
testified on behalf of Louis Hertle,
which case was tried in the commis
sioner’s court here last winter. Also
an indictment against Tommy McNeil
for rape. McNeil was arrested at Mat
anuska by Deputy Marshal F. Hoff
man about two weeks ago.

KimS FIND BODY
OF UNKNOWN Ml
Anchorage Times
The body of an unknown man was
found last week on the banks of the
Yentna river about eighty miles above
Susitna station, according to word re
ceived from that district today. From
the attitude of the body it seems evi
dent that the man had come down the
Yentna river in some craft, and was
overturned in the treacherous waters
there. Apparently he had seen the
lights of the cabin of Paul Augustt
and Oscar Fagerberg and had tried to
make for that when he died. One hand
was stretched before him in a dying
effort to make safety.
Augustt and Fagerberg who found
the body below their cabin, were under
the impression that the law in Alaska
was the same as in Canada, in regard
to the dead body, and therefore did
not touch it, but simply drove stakes
all around the bod ' They then came
to Anchorage and ported their find.
From the meager description given,
the man had reo hair and wore a
heavy mackinaw coat. The authorities
are at a loss to discover the man’s
identity.
Deputy Marshal Staser wired Val
dez headquarters today for authority
to send out a party to bring the body
to Anchorage.

CABLE BAS BEEN LAID
SEATTLE, May 28—The work of
laying the new Alaska cable to take
the place of the present military cable
laid twenty-two years ago, is well un
derway, according to an announcement
made this morning by Col. J. D. L.
Boardman, in charge of the Seattle of
fice of the U. S. Signal Corps.
The cableship Dellwood, has com
pleted the first stretch of cable laying
from Seattle ro Ketchikan, 812 miles,
landing the cable at Trocadero Bay.
The cable was laid for the most part
live or six miles from shore and at a
depth of approximately 1,500 feet.
Across the Prince of Wales Island
an eight-mile- land portage is to be
made near Ketchikan, from Trocadero
Bay, on the west side of the island, to
Twelve Mile Arm, on the East side.
For this eight mile distance the cab'e
will be laid in a trench under ground.
After laying the present cable into
Ketchikan, the Dellwood will proceed
northward to repair the old cable to
Juneau. Then sue will return to Lon
don for the remainder of the new Al
aska cable ,which will stretch north
ward to the terminus at Seward.
The prelim'r.ary work has been
conpleted v.ith the two destroyers,
Corry and Hull taking soundings with
a Sonic depth finder on the lane from
Seattle to Seward. The soundings were
taken at intervals of four miles and
ships used to widen the lane.
Col. George S. Gibbs, U. S. Signal
corps ,is in charge of laying the new
cable and making the necessary re
pairs. Col. Gibbs recently announced
that in fair weather he expects to lay
cable at the rate of eight miles an
hour.
The Seattle Chamber of Commerce
was largely instrumental in obtaining
the appropriation and due to this fact
will probably have the honor of send
ing the first northbound message over
the new bond connecting Seattle with
Alaska. The Ketchikan Chronical has
asked permission to be allowed to
transmit the first Alaska message to
Seattle, the new cable, with duplex op
eration, allowing simultaneous trans
mission of messages.
A tiny copper core, less than an
eighth of an inch in diameter, is the
slender thread that will bear the mes
sages in the future between Alaska
and Seattle. The total diameter of the
cable with insulation is approximately
two inches.
Joe Ulmer, a member of the Ter
ritorial road commission, who has
been in Seward awaiting the arrival
of some horses, left ohi Monday’s
freight taking the team to the To
kotna district.

STOP THAT BACKACHE!
Many Seward Folks Have Found
the Way
Is a dull, nerve-racking backache
wearing you out? Do you feel older
and slower than you should ? Are you
tired, weak and nervous; find it im
possible to be happy, or enjoy the
good times around you? Then there’s
something wrong and likely it’s your
kidneys. Why not get at the cause?
Use Doan’s Pills—a stimulant diuretic
to the kidneys. Thousands ^recom
mend Doan’s. Read what a resident
of this locality says;
A. L. Davis, carpenter, 214 Bond
St., Astoria, Oregon, says: “Some
time ago I strained my back at carpen
ter work and it brought on serious
kidney trouble. I suffered much and
was in a badly weakened condition
when I decided to try Doan’s Pills. In
a short time they rid me of all signs
of kidney disorder anl strengthened
my back.
OVER EIGHT YEARS LATER, Mr.
Davis said: “Doan’s have never fail
ed to help me when I have backache
and other signs of kidney trouble.”
