COMMUNICATION
Mr. Editor:
In the issue of the Progressive
Miner of March 1st, 1916, the fol
lowing statement is made in a re
port by G. H. Action, concerning
the refusal of the storekeeper at
Dolomi to assist the "North Cape”
in distress a few miles from shore.
"We have two boats here—the
Eurus, dismantled, boarded over and
laid up for the winter, and the
Gray, .1.0 H. P., in use."
There is no truth in this state
ment, however. The Eurus was not
dismantled for the engineer went
aboard of her and turned on the
sw Tch and she was all lit up' with
elrrtric lights. She wn not board-:
ed over in any respect. This point
can 1 ct be argued inasmuch as
there v as no object in hoarding
over a beat like that when she was
tied ui at the float. 1 have v;it
nesAcs that will swc>r that there
were no boards over her. She was
tied up at the float with three
lines which could hardly be con
sidered laid up. In regards to the
Gray 10 H. P.: she was not in use
as stated. The engineer said be
fore trying to start the engine
on her that he might as well not
try for it would not run, but that
he could start the engine on the
Eurus in a short time.
In the same issue Mr. Wm. B.
Boyce made the following state
ment: “The opinion of the boatmen
here is that the men on the “North
Cape” with their two row boats
could have easily towed the 32 ft.
(size given by fisherman) North
Cape in themselves.”
The "boatmen" he has reference
to must have been loggers or min
ers. It is needless to say that a
man who knows anything about
boats and tide-currents would not
expect two men in rowboats to tow
a 32 ft. boat in the swells that
were on the sea that night.
These men are both of the im
pression that I reported that there
was a heavy storm that night. I
did not. I merely stated that there
was a heavy swell rolling constant
ly.
They are trying to make it ap
pear that what I have said about
my plea for help in Dolomi is not
true. What could I gain by telling
anything that was not true? They
also try to impress upon the people
that I wanted sympathy from the
public. Anybody who knows me
would know that I do not want
anything that I am not entitled to.
Help has been offered us in dif
ferent ways but we are able to stand
our own losses and do not want
anyone to put themselves out in
our behalf.
The storekeeper knows that he
could have saved the “North Cape”
from destruction and Mr. Hanson
from the narrow escape from
drowning, had he given us permissi
on to take the Eurus. This is why
he is trying to conceal the truth
concerning the matter, and make
people believe that he did what he
could do.

THE ORIGINE OF
GOLD AND SILVER
Steamboat Springs, Nevada, has
figured prominently in discussions
of the origine of ore deposits. The
waters of these springs contain the
urecions metals in minute quantities
and the sinter deposited by them
contains several minerals that are
common constituents of ores, as
well as small quantities of "many of
the rarer metallic constituents of ore
deposites, including gold and silver.
Such springs, therefore, suggest
that many and perhaps most ore
bearing veins have been formed
by hot waters rising from great
depths, which have brought their
metal contents up in solution and
deposited them in open spaces or
fiscures in the rocks through which
the waters passed, the deposition of
some ores being influenced by chem
ical reaction with the surrounding
rock. Many ore deposits are un
doubtedly formed in other ways,
for some are unquestionably of
sedimentary origin and the metal
content of some others has been
carried down, redeposited, and con
centrated by rain water that' des
cended into the earth's crust, but
the "hydrothermal” origin—that is,
their deposition from ascending hot
water—of many of the more valu
able ore deposits is indicated by
the_ci.QSe relation observed at many
places between mineral veins and
eruptive rocks. Thermal waters are
believed to be, in part at least,
given off by slowly cooling and
solidifying masses of igneous rock
(magma) deep within the earth.—

Lyceum and Chorus
The Lyceum Chorus meets this
evening at eight o’clock for re
hearsal in Firemen’s Hall. It is
a singing practice to put on for one
or two evenings this spring, a musi
cal entertainment of the nature of
the production of a year ago, and
an entertainment that will merit
credit to those participating. Talent
is abundant in Ketchikan, and only
the will to do is necessary to make
t-c entertainment highly successful.
Inis Chorus number is conducted
under tr.c auspices of the Ketchikan
l.jojuin, whose membership is writ
ten only in the interei; Ket> hik.in
fiti rtv take in Keti>;kar. cnter

The fi.ect of the Ketchikan Ly

chikan intertainment that "'ill be
*«>•■ d fer thought and food- for talk,
other ti.an the naturiw Mother
Grundy proclivities of humans the
world over, prone to wunder. That

There are some thirty singers re
hearsing at present for this Chorus
production. But there is citizen
talent whose light is still under a
basket, for reasons in some cases
real, and in other , eases' fancied.
It hardly becomes the town to
allow this Ketchikan Lyceum, with
its membership and object as stat
ed, to be overcome by the magni

The carbon dioxide, according to
a scientific note, is contained in a
small interchangeable case, hold

shots, and lodged in the gun.
Upon pulling the trigger the re
quisite amount of the gas is admit

shot from the barrel. With small
shot the gun has a range of about
eighty feet; with bullets" a range
of about 130 feet.
The number of shot which can
befired depends, of course, on the
bore of the gun. About 100 shots
can be fired with small shot, 150
with a bullet number 8, 150 with a
