AMERICANS WED
OVER IN BULGARIA
SAMAKOV, Aug. 19. (/P)—This Bul
garian town recently witnessed the
wedding of two young Americans,
the culmination of a short romance.
The bride was Miss Laura Standish
of Oak Park, Chicago, who last
spring started on a trip around the
world with little thought, it is said,
of marriage. In Samakov she met
John Staerns, a teacher in the Am
erican school. Their engagement
was announced after a short court
ship. Mr. Stearns is a graduate of
Harvard.

treaty be abrogated, this very sub
stantial interest will of course be
forfeited and Great Britain and Can
ada will thereafter obtain nothing ex
cept as may come from the extreme
ly uncertain pelagic killing for a few
years.
Formerly there were fur-seal rook
eries in various parts of the world on
islands of the British Empire, among
whch may be named South Georgia,
South Shetland, the Falklands islands
on the New Zealand ct>ast, islands on
the coast of Australia and on a num
ber of small islands elsewhere. As a
result of pelagic sealing and greed in
land killing all these herds, some of
which were originally nearly as large
as the Alaska herd ever was, long ago
became commercially extinct. How
ever, small remnants of most of these
herds still exist and they may be re
stored to their former size if given
the same protection which the herds
of Alaska are now receiving under the
present Fur-seal Treaty. The restor
ation of those herds would yield
many millions to the British govern
ment in annual income. Merely as a
business proposition, one of the best
things the British Government could
do would be the bringing about of an
international treaty for the protec
tion from pelagic killing of all fur
seals wherever found and the confin
ing of killing to the taking of bache
lor males on the breeding islands. No
other policy will produce anything. j
Any other policy means anihilation of
the existing fur-seal—the destruction
of the most valuable of all fur-bear
ing animals.

dova, Capt. A. H. McCarthy and his
party scaled Mount Logan, in Alas
ka, which is 19,500 feet high.

HUGE ORE BODY
AT NUKA BAY
OWNED BY 3 MEN
SMITH, BLAIR AND SATHER HAVE
UNCOVERED IMMENSE BODY
ORE AT NUKA BAY
One of the largest bodies of ore
visited by the Gateway representa
tive last week at Nuka Bay was that
located in Yelak Bay, on the south
side of the entrance to Nuka Bay.
The property which was staked but
a few weeks ago by A1 Blair, Capt.
John Smith and Pete Sather was dis
covered in the spring by Captain
Smith of the gas boat Rolfe II. The
vein is at least three feet thick and
up to the present time has been trac
i ed for over half a mile.
Several pans taken from the face
of the lead revealed extremely rich
colors. The unusual feature of this
big ore body is that it parallels the
beach for a considerable distance,
running inland only where a point of
land juts out into the bay. Like one
other claim in the district discovery
was made when a slide occurred ex
posing the highly mineralized quartz
ledge. Though no analysis has been,
made of the dyke wall it appears to
be also highly mineralized. Like the
rest of the properties uncovered thus
far in the Nuka Bay district this
property can be operated with the ut
most economy due to the fact that it
is at tidewater.
A1 Blair has moved onto the prop
erty. He has a comfortable tent up
stocked with grub and powder and i3
busily engaged in stripping the lead.
The location of the camp site is cer
tainly an ideal one. A fresh water
stream gurglee softly near by, on its
way to the sea, which in that partic
ular region consists of a splendid la
goon. The partners have filed on a
sawmill site at the camp location,
which is a good sized flat.

WHEN IS MULE NOT
MULE, BLACKSMITH
OF SEWARD, ASKS
MISSOURI MULE LEFT ON HANDS
FOR SHIPMENT IS SUBJECT
MUCH CONTROVERY
Charles Crawford, the “village
smithy,” in whose custody the Mis
souri mule was left last week by J.
D. Meenach, mining man and pros
pector who departed for Seattle last
week, is having the time of his life
in endeavoring to ship, as per in
structions, the mule to the states.
Mr. Meenich was unable to secure
transportation for the mule on the
steamer he left Seward on, last week
so left his pet with Mr. Crawford to
ship out on a later boat. Efforts to
talk the local steamship officials in
to permitting him to ship the mule
Outside has proven unavailing so Mr.
Crawford is now thinking seriously of
letting the mule swim out to sea for
twelve miles, beyond the jurispru
dence of the prohibition law, and
there, put the mule on board a boat,
southbound. The steamship officers
seem to be reluctant about allowing
the mule on board. It was careful
ly pointed out to them that it was
not “white liquor” but a draft ani
mal which transportation was want
ed for.
Mr. Crawford says the present
state of affairs is getting beyond his
control. The other day some town
josher told a new arrival that he had
a mule for sale. The man came
down and asked if he could purchase
a bottle. It was then carefully ex
plained to him that his wires were
crossed, that the mule could not be
packed in a bottle but would have to
be sold, “as is.” What the end will
be, “dad only knows”, exclaimed Mr.
Crawford.
