GOLD COMPANY’S MANAGER
RECEIVES HURRIED ORDERS
TO TAKE UP NEW LABORS
R A. \ustin, manager olF thr Iditarod in
tercets of the Yukon Gold Company, re
ceived telegraphic instructions from the of- \
ficials of his company the latter part of fast
week to report immediately at San 1” ran
ciseo, and on Sunday evening, accoiupojiied
by Mrs. Austin, fie left for that city. They
will leave St. Michael on the Victoria, which;
is cxjvcted to sail from that point about
the loth of this month.
The urgency of the business which called
Mr. Austin away may be surmised from the
fact that he had but about forty-right hours ;
in which to make preparations for his tie-:
pavture It is understood that William licit-1
man, the dredgema.-ter, will be temporarily
in charge of the company’s affairs ponding
the arrival of a new manager.
While no information has been given o\rt
as to Mr. Austin’s future plans, it is under
stood that he wifi not return to Mitarod.
It is learned that he has been intrusted with
a quartz-mining proposition of magnitude
controlled by the Yukon Gold Company, but1
where ;he property is located has not been
ascert tuned.
The announcement on Saturday last of
the impending departure of Mr. and Mrs.
Austin was received with genuine regret
by all members of the community. Mr.
Austin is regarded as a most capable and
energetic administrator, and his handling of
the big company’s affair- here have won tor
him the respect and kind regard of all.
Mrs. Austin, who came here as a bride three
years ago, will be missed by a large circle
of friends. The people of the Iditarod dis
trict. while regretting their departure, will
wish them success and prosperity in their
new surroundings.
FAMOUS GERMAN INVENTOR
WAS WITH UNION ARMY
Count Ferdinand Von Zeppelin entered
upon his SOih year ou July S. end the <>c
ca. ii n was observed with fdd)ralkins in ail!
parts: of Germany., according to djspale.hr>
from Berlin. Count Von ZeppfTm had lit
tie part in the celebration of hr- birthday
anniversary. Since the beginning of the
war he hns seldom left the Zepjdin works
at Lake Cons’ aasre. where he has worked
almost day and night planning and super
intending the building of the huge dirigible
balloons which the Gernmcs have employed
in their raids on England How many of
these airships have been constructed since
the beginning of the war will probably never
be known to the public until after the great
conflict is ended, it is known, however,
that the fleet has steadily increased in num
bers. despite the fact that many have met
with destruction in the raids on the Bnti.-k
isles. There is also evidence to show that
the Zeppelins have increased in size and
efficiency during the past six months. Ac
cording to recent report- from Berlin the
air craft now building will be 50 per cent
larger than the Zeppelins now in commis- ;
sion. They will possess a proportionate in
re ase in lifting power and consequently will
be capable of carrying a much larger
quantity of explosives than the existing
craft of the same type. And what is of even
more importance, the new Zeppelins will
be able to drop their bombs from a much
greater height than heretofore, which is ex- i
pected to render them practically immune■
from land or water gun fire.
To few of the world's great inventors ha
fame come so tardily and reluctantly a.-'
it has io the man who brought to perfec- i
tion the dirigible airship, and who is now
characterized bv his etnjieror as “the great
est German of the century.” Few inventors
have encountered such relentless obstacles
and overcome them by so indomitable a
spirit. At the age of 7.5 years he and hi?
invention were the subject of public ridi
cule. Today, in his Slst year, he is hon
ored by the entire German nation, and his
invent'u n is hailed as one of the most ef
fective weapons that Germany has been
able to bring to bear on her enemies in the
present war.
It is not generally known that Count Aon
Zeppelin made his first flight in the United
States. At the age of 25. as a lieutenant of
cavalry, he was AATirtemburg’s military at
tache an;! observer with the Union army in
the American civil war. Joining the army
of ihe Mississippi, he was attached to
General Carl Schurz’ brigade. It was then
that he had his first taste of aeronautics.
He went up in a balloon, sent up by the
federal army to spy out the positions of the
Confederates. Zeppelin not only volunteered
but begged to be permitted to go up. His
request was granted, and during the re
mainder of his service with the federal army
hp made numerous balloon ascensions.
When he returned to Germany at the
close of the American conflict he was im
bued with a strong taste for aeronautics,
and it is said that even at that early day
he already dreamed of navigating the air
;n a dirigible baloon. Many years were
to elapse, however, before he could begin
the practical execution of his plans. He
distinguished himself in the war with Aus
tria in 1866 and in the Franco-Prussian
war four years later, as an officer of a
Prussian cavalry regiment.
Manv thousands of dollars were used and
many lives were lost before the Zeppelin be
came an accomplished fact. With each suc
cessive disaster the aged inventor set to
work to eliminate the imperfections.
Wealthy and influential friends, among them
the emperor, shared Zeppelin’s faith in the
ultimate success of his invention. Airship
after airship was constructed at great cost,
onlv to meet, with destruction after a few
flights, and some of them on their initial
trip. The spectacular nature of Zeppelin’s
ftiisfortunes loomed large in the public
mind, and it was only the German military
and scientific experts who continued to have
faith in his invention.
While the German scientific organs pro
claimed each new Zeppelin a triumph, the
weight of expert opinion in England was
on the other side. At the beginning of the
present war the English were inclined to
laugh at the idea of a Zeppelin raid. The
possibility of such a thing was ridiculed by
even the foremost of English aviation ex
perts. some of whom still contended that
“a balloon cannot be steered in the air be
ouse of the absence of that denser medium
c r the rudder which the water provides in
‘he case nf a ship.”

FAMOUS SPANISH PRISONER j
STILL TRYING TO DI5POSE OF
HIS DUCATS AND DAUGHTER
p
Headers of The Pioneer '.nil recall rival f
about a year ago Ira Wood, the ■wrfJ-f
known local business mam, received * fetter J
from a distressed Spanish gentleman who]
was imprisoned and wlio was solicitous of 8
I he welfare of his darling daughter and J
desired Ara Jo assist him in securing her |
fortune for her, for all of which be offered j
a princely reward. It appears that either
Mr. Wood is hard hearted in the extreme or[|
he has been afraid to make the trip to.j
that dear Spain in war times, for another j
resident td the district has lately received j
a similar appeal. The letter follows almost
similar lines as that received by Mr. Wood,
but the daughter has not. aged any since
lust year, being still sweet 16. Sn fact,
she must have partaken of the waters of J
perpetual youth, for she was 16 years of i
age » quarter of a century J.go wheat the j
distressed Spaniard commenced asking the {
assistance of “near kinsmen” in his effort I
to save his daughter and his ducats. j
The latest letter of the famous Spanish
prisoner was addressed to “'Mr. Pete
Kowalski, Wood Contractor, Iditi.rod,
Alaska,” and is dated May 28, PJ16. Mr.
Kowalski was somewhat puzzled about it.
ami was inclined to hte belief that “the
proposition submitted in the letter is of,
a fraudulent character.' He states that
he has never been in Spain and has no
relatives nor friends in that country.
It always has been a puzzle as to how
the “Spanish prisoner” works his scheme;
but that it does work is evidenced by the
persistency with which he keeps up his
work. In order that a waiting world may
be enlightened as to the details The Pio
neer suggests that some chivalrous member
of the community who can spare the money
make the venture and comply with the
request, in order that all may learn the
details. The fact that all of us may not
be “near kinsmen” of Senor Fonseca prob
ably would not act as a bar; for no doubt
the money of entire strangers would be
just as acceptable. Here is the letter;
Writes to His “Kinsman”
■'Beir.g j laced in a very grave situation
and i cannot fey myself resolve a great
strougle that sorround me I take the lib
erty to write you the first anti perhaps the
last lime due to ruy grave health, although
1 am know to you when I say you that
my death mother Mrs. Anna was your near
kinswoman you will know our relationship.
"Counting with your discretion i will ex
plain you my sorry situation :Jthough I
am affraid this letter not reach you, but as
my situation cannot accept delay i risk
this letter of which can depend the salva
ion of a great fortune that is the future j
of my only and dear daughter of lt> years ‘
old that is |Jaced in a boarding School.
"Mv death father was Contractor of the!
Spanish army for this reason he made me |
to study for the corp of Administration for j
to make better his business and when my
parents death I was Commander of mili
tary administration and 1 follow his busi
ness and the same tune I was employed as
cashier in the war ministry here in Madrid,
working hard to make a fortune for my
dear daughter and when I begin to see '
realized my wishes because I had some for
tune t became the european war. As you
know every nation sent their agregated
mititarys and the Spanish government sent
me to the centre of the operations of army
could see myself the actions done by the
belli gents end for this reason I write here
in French. Once in the centre of action I
to Madrid to my republican friends telling
them to work for break our neutrality and
go to the war. but when my pelbician ene
mies saw it, the government call me to re
turn at once to my employment of cashier.
Then in Madrid and knowing that our gov
ernment do not break the neutrality for
the power of the Austrian Empire has over
the mother of our king, because she is
there, myself and all republican people nam
ing a committee for start to France and
ask the french government to aid us to de
throne the king of Spain and proclaim a
republican government but when the com
mittee came back and arrive to Trun (his
pano-franco frontier l. they were lubried
cruelly by the monarchical adherents and
some of them were wounded. I think you
know all this events because it was pub- j
lished in the newspapers of the world.
Immense Fortune Secreted
“Thinking that the french government
would aid us I was empowered for start
to England and there purchase war ma
terial, so I Went to London immediately
bearing with me all my fortune which
amount to £85,700. In London I was
awaiting some instructions for fulfill ray
mission but before receiving them the corn
plot was discovered and the committee was
arrester! denouncing me as defrauder of a
large sum of money to the war-ministry.
Knowing the calumny my enemies throw
upon me I remain in London where some
days after I received the sad news of my
wife’s death leaving abandoned in the world
my dear daughter, this sad new obliged me
to return to Spain to recover my darling
daughter, but thinking it was an impru
dence to take with me my fortune I decided
to place it in a sure Bank of Lonrlon but
saying that money of mine could be payed
in any branch office of said Bank in your
country, which bank gave me as warranty
of it a Cheque payable to bearer transfered
for to collect it in your country where I
was going to life. This cheque I hidden
in a secret partition I make myself in one
of my trunks impossible to be discovered
for anybody.
“Being then on surety all my stock I
come here to Spain with all my luggage to
recover my daughter and start for your
free country but when I arrive to Spain
and although I was perfectly disguised I
was discovered and arrested by the Spanish
government policemen being wounded my
self by them with a very grave wound in
the breast thinking all at first I was death.
“Consequently of my resistance and as I
wounded a policeman I will be judged by
civil Court of justice because I have been
forsaken of the army and because they have
not found over me the money which my
enemies say I have defrauded at govern
ment.
“As results of my lawsuit I have been
notified that all my luggage will be seized
at the disposal of the court in order to
be responsble at the results of the law' and
assure the payment of costs. I shall have
to pay, as you can understand all my stock
is now placed in hands of the Court and
as of the Spanish Court it is easy to ob
tain all with some money it shall never
be difficult to get all my luggage placing

PLANS FOR IMPERIAL UNION
AFTER TERMINATION OF WAR
-—-—
The remodeling of the system of govern
ment of the British empire after the war
was predicted by Herbert L. Samuel, sec
retary of home affairs, at a dinner given
in honor of the Australian premier. Will
iam Morris Hughes, says a recent London
dispatch.
“Many times in history," said the home
secretary, “have states previously not inti
mately united in their internal organiza
tion been welded together bv war. I have !
long been convinced that the present con
stitution—or absence of constitution —of the ,
empire cannot be the final form of our no- 1
litical relations with one another among the
various portions of our empire.
“The whole empire is affected by grave
decisions of policy made bv the government
and parliament, responsible not to the peo
ple of the whole empire, but to the electors
of these islands. That, is in contradiction of
the whole spirit of British institutions.
“I speak, not for the government, but
from my own hrm conviction, wnen i say
that the mother country is very ready to
admit the Dominions into a share in the
decisions of policy as soon as they desire
such admission. Let each develop on its
own lines, hut let them be ready to com
bine in some organic union for dealing with
matters of common interest. Tt is for them
to decide whether, after the war, we shall
be able to take a forward step in the evo
lution of our imperial institutions.”
Premier Hughes’ speech was devoted
mainlv to urging the necessity of weeding
out German influence in Great Britain and
the colonies.
