A. M. Smith Holds Secret
of Ancient Alaskan Days
Alex Malcolm ,Smith, one of the
advance agents for the Detroit Avia
tion Society, North Pole explorers,
who will arrive in. Seward in two
iweeks from Seattle, accompanied by
Earl Rossman, photographer, will be
recalled by many as being a brief vis
itor in Seward lasit summer, having
arrived on the S. S. Victoria from
Nome. From here he went Outside.
He is one of the best known of the
old-time prospectors of the North and
previous to arriving at Seward had
just completed a lengthy investiga
tion of mineral deposits in the Arc
tic. Among his claims in the Arc
tic regions is one covering a lake of
oil beneath which, it is confidently
believed, lay scores of skeletons of
mastodons. The interest of scien
tists lor years has been directed to
this probable fruitful field, which no
doubt would add considerably to
modern knowledge of when Alaska
■was a tropical garden.
Guy Cameron, protographer, who
expected to open a shop in Seward,
has decided to locate in Anchorage,
according to advices received last
evening. Last Wednesday he opened
a studio next to the Empress.
