SUPERINTENDENT V HNSON
HAS STRANGE TALE TO TELL
Superintendent Johnson of the bureau of
education left for Nulato on March 1. After
attending to business there he will go to
Nome via St. Michael, says the Unalskleet
correspondent of the Nome Industrial
Worker. While in the Ku.-kokwitu Mr.
Johnsan ran across a village of Eskimos
living in good log cabins and who had a
written language of their own. hrom in
quries he learned that these people had
been promised a teacher several years ago
by one of the bureau of education men if
they would get together, build a village,
etc. This they did, but as no teacher ar
rived. one of the natives invented a system
of writing and taught it to the rest, and
they now can communicate readily with
one another. The writer saw a specimen
of this language where several chapters of
the Bible were translated into a small
space. It seems to be an abbreviated long
hand, but it must be left to the ploglot (sic)
authorities for more lucid comment.

LAHEY STARVED TO DEATH
WITHIN REACH OF PLENTY
(Ruby Record-Citizen, March 25)
Deputy Marshal Jack MacCormack of
Nulato arrived in Ruby last Tuesday on his
way to Fairbanks. He had lately returned
from a trip up the Koyukuk, made for the
I purpose of burying the body of Jack Lahey,
who starved to death in an isolated cabin
during the winter. The body was buried
about six miles from where it was found
Lumber for the coffin was sledded from Nu
lato. It is the intention of Bob Lang of
Koyukuk to make a trip up on the lust
snow to look for the body of Tom Wilson,
Lahey’s partner, who left the latter in
the cabin to go for assistance, but never
returned.
Robert Hilliary of Ruby had maintained
a long-standing friendship with Wilson, and
has interested himself in tire case, lie has
availed himself of every means possible for
learning all the particulars, and has fur
nished the following facts regarding the
awful experiences that resulted in the death
of the two men:
Wilson and Lahey left Hughes, lute in
the fall, in a small boat, bound for Nulato,
They froze in at the mouth of Hog river,
and reached Kolsac’s cabin, twelve miles
above Fortymile cut-off, November 3, with
out grub. They got a little grub from Kol
sac, a native, and declined to wait and go
down with Kolsac later, as they were in u
hurry to reach Nulato, in order to get a
wood contract from the wireless station.
Kolsac left about a week later, but when
he reached the cut-off he saw where fHeir
sled track went on over the cut-off.
Around by the way of the river it is 106
miles to where Lahey’s body was found,
fifteen miles above the lower end of the cut
off. Fifteen miles lower down was Peter
ki krine’s cabin, stocked with grub, and six
miles from where Lahey died there was a
trap line which was run at intervals, but
the hard-pressed men were ignorant of the-e
sources of relief. They hail hauled about
350 pounds between them with one dog.
It is probable that they played themselves
out with this heavy load, or they might
have reached safety.
Two letters were found in the cabin. The
first one written was signed by both Lahey
and WiDnii. It stated they were out of
grub and starving; that there were no birds
and rabbits were scarce, and that they had
eaten their dog. The letter a!so contained
an order for grub on Evans at Koyukuk
station. It was after writing this letter
that WiLon stilted back up the river
f r help.
Wilson was a member of the fraternal
Order of Eagles at Wilkinson, V, a h. His
relatives live at Gig Harbor, V ash.

HINTS THAT TURIKSH PRINCE
WAS VICTIM OF ASSASSIN
Whether Yussuf Izzeddin, late heir to
the throne of Turkey, really committed sui
cide recently, as was ofli- t 'lly announced
in Constantinoi'le, or was as. o.e mated, is
something nobody expects ever to know.
Yussuf is well known to have been pro
ally in his sympathies. Naturally, this
made the Germans hate him. It a'-o made
him hated bv the openly pro-German Turk
ish war minister, Enver Pasha, and by 1 lie
group of Turks which surrounds the lat
ter. Thee circumstances are regarded a
eiving plenty of ground for the suspicion
that Yussuf was murdered. At the same
time, it is rumored that the sultan's next
in-line had ample reason for the deepest
despondency concerning the Turkish gov
ernmental policy, which in his opinion was
rushing the country straight in the dila
tion of complete ruin, it is .suggested in
responsible quarters, therefore, that hi.- sui
cirte would not have been surprising. T us
si:f was nearly 60 years old. lie was Turk
Lsh war minister at the age of 18, but when
Abdul Aziz was overthrown he was forced
into retirement. Abdul Hamid kept him a
semi prisoner on the Asiatic side of the
Bosphorus. He was in thorough sympathy
and complete touch with the Young Turk
ish revolutionary activity which preceded
Abdul Hamid’s deposition. With the Euro
pean war’s outbreak, however, his pro-ally
views resulted in a violent break between
himself and Enver Pasha, the Young Turk
leader, who has always been strongly pro
German. The story is even told that he
and Enver exchanged shots as the climax
■ a quarrel between them concerning Tur
key’s attitude. The Turkish throne doe
not descend in a direct line from father
to son. but when a sultan dies it passes to
the eldest male representative of the house
of Othman. Yussuf was the present sul
tan’s cousin. With his death, Vahid Eddin,
born in 1S61, a younger brother of the
sultan, became heir apparent. He, too, if

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AT LONG
According to private advices received in
Fairbanks this morning from Ruby, John
l iser of Long creek last evening attempted
to commit suicide by cutting his throat,
says the Fairbanks News-Miner of M:- ch
15. He was discovered by a friend, who
immediately secured medical attendance for
him. Eighteen stitches were put in his
throat, and it is expected that he will re
cover. It is expected that the man will
be arrested and brought before Commis
sioner De Vane on a charge of having at
tempted to commit suicide.
FAY ON POGRMAN CREEK
(Ruby Record-Citizen, March 25)
The new find of pay dirt which was re
ported from T'oorman last week has been
confirmed by several arrivals from there
during the week, among them E, G. Mc
Kinnon and Joe Ferris. A crosscut of forty
feet has been run, which is said by the
laymen to run high in values. Another
shaft wa3 bedrocked about 150 feet above
the tunnel, where it is reported four feet ol
dirt which will run about 8 cents to the
pan was uncovered. This new pay has cre
ated quite a stir, and the lucky laymen,
Charles Cook, Albert Hanson and Teddy
Swindland, feel that they have a good
chance for a homestake.

i ALASKA’S FORD DELEGATE
GIVES HIS IMPRESSIONS
OF RECENT PEACE TRIP
Emil Edward Ilurja returned last night
from his tour of Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Germany and Holland at the expense of
Henry Ford, says the Seattle Post Intelli
gencer. Since leaving Seattle, November
30, to join the peace party as the personal
representative of President Henry Suzzalo
of the university and Governor Strong of
Alaska, Mr. Hurja lias been seeing and
learning. He admits he has had a good
time, in .spite of which he was able to ex
hibit 20 cents in good American coin when
he stepped off the train last night.
That the Ford peace mission so far has
served the purpose for which it was con
ceived is Mr. Hurja’s firm conviction.
“The principal purpose of the expedition
was to serve as a popular demonstration
against war. he says. Inis demonstra
tion was to lead to the selection of an en
tircly nentnl conference, whose task it wi 1
be to consider ways and means for bring
ing the war to an end. This conference,
which is now being formed in Europe, v. iil ,
serve as a continuous unofficial board of j
arbitration. It will formulate and suggest
a program for the settlement of the war, j
after deliberating on the international ques- J
tions at issue and calling in experts from :
both neutral and belligerent countries. ;
Whether the conference of civilians can ;
have any influence on the diplomats of
Europe is a question which time alone can
answer. But so far at least the expedition l
has not been worthless.”
Kings' palaces, world-renowned art mu
seums, and counts, dukes and barons no \
longer held forth any special attracts n for
| Mr. Hurja. lie has seen so many of each
; that they have become commonplace. Every !
: where members of the party went, espe
| eially the student members, of whom there
j were thirty-seven, they were wined and
! lined and feted until, a< Mr. Hurja said.
“It get so we would just for the novelty j
! t f it refuse champagne with our meals.”
And the peculiar part of the entire trip I
I is that Mr. Hurja never saw Henry Ford. ;
I father of the excursion and patron of tin*!
j expense accounts. Because of Mr. HuriaV ;
long prrTminary journey from Seattle, l e ,
i missed the Oscar II and started out eight j
days later with twenty-two other members. :
| 'mining the main party in Christiania. Nor
! way. When he reached Christiania Henry j
j Ford had become ill and had set out on ‘
I his return to the United States.
| Throughout the trio the sixty newspaper j
! men, present in their professional capaci
ties, were tie life of the party, recording !
■o Mr. Hurja. They wrote a very secre.
i ritual end initiated several of the dignified I
I members into the Vacillating Sons of St. j
i Vitus. Hurja has been initiated into the j
• Kappa Siuma and Sigma Delta Chi fraterni- !
i lies at college, but he never in his life ex-!
i perienced anything like the fun-making I
j 11ic11 preceded his acceptance into the j
j ranks of the Vacillating Sons of St. Vitus, j
* The name of the organization was se j
| lected after one of the brilliant wits in the ;
> newspaper crowd viewed a sedate member ,
j ■ f the party stagger across the deck of the .
| Oscar il during a storm.
! rlhe new.-paper men also entertained with |
| bilging, sometimes at most inappropriate i
j bines, Mr. Hurja confesses, a song the words 1
■ of which were written by Berton Braley j
, 'unions rhymester, to the doleful tune cr j
I ihe funeral march. Every verse ended with j
I iu eiunu-iasiic snout oi Mop me war. i
1 accompanied by a sharp clap of the hands. |
I Along the route the peace party, whose j
: members fully realized the purpose for |
i which they had been invited, and who par
j ciiipated seriously in all disesusions, held
I daily conferences. The student members
: held separate councils, and were never ad
; milted to the meetings uf the older per
j sons.
! “While Mr. Ford was with the party the
j students were shown every courtesy and
| con.-ideration that was accorded oilier mem
hers of the party." said Mr. Ilurja. “When
Mr. Ford left, however, his manager, who
evidently was not quite clear as to the
true purpose for which the students had
been invited, discriminated somewhat. The
students were made to carry suit cases and
were quartered in different places from the
rest of the party. However, the students
more than made up for this by the good
times they had in the various cities. Every
where they were entertained by the student
bodies of the foreign universities.
“The entire party was chosen by Mr.
Ford with the idea of getting a truly rep
resentative group of persons from the United
States. And nearly every type was repre
sented. The students probably w-ere the
most representative that could have been
collected in the country, and among the
newspaper men it was commonly said that
the students evinced a greater earnestness
in the serious purpose of the party than
did any of the other members.
“The Norwegians, while courteous, held
themselves a bit aloof and did not greet
either the party or its purpose with any
, great enthusiasm. It was a twenty-two
| hours’ train ride from Christiania to Stock
: helm, Sweden, and by some oversight no
I deeping accommodations had been provided.
: “The only person on the train who rented
! was the engineer. It surely was a slow,
tiresome trip.
“We were accorded a splendid reception
in Sweden, and spent a week in Stockholm
before proceeding to Copenhagen, Denmark,
i where, owing to strict orders against any
j discussion of the war, our gatherings were
1 more of a private nature. At Copenhagen
we visited Helsingfors castle, the 'Elsinore'
of Shakespeare’s 'Hamlet.' After ten days
in Copenhagen we went by boat to Warne
munde, Germany, where we boarded a train
for the border of Holland. It was a four
teen-hour ride across this strip of Germany,
and, contrary to common report, we were
not confined in cattle cars; neither were
the windows barred. As far as we coull
see from the train, Germany was in a flour
ishing condition.
“At The Hague, when the election of
members of the permanent peace board
came up, the influence of Mrs. Hose Sohwim
mer, the Hungarian peace advocate, was
noted for the first time in the party. She
really controlled the election, and was de
feated on only one occasion, and that was
by the selection of John Barry of the San
Francisco Bulletin to the board.”
After returning to the United States Mr. i
Hurja visited Washington, D. C., for sev- j
era! days, where lie met Franklin K. Lane,
secretary of the interior, and Judge Wick- ]
ersham, congressional delegate from Alaska, I
whom Mr. Ffurja already knew from his .
residence in the North.
Mr. Hur.ia will resume his work at the
University of Washington, and incidentally
returned to an enraged fraternity brother '
the dress suit which the peace delegate so
hastily tucked into his suit case when he ;
left for Europe.

COVEY, ALIAS JACK SPENCER,
TO BE TAKEN TO FAIRBANKS
The fallowing from the Fairbanks Times
..f recent date refers to the young man who
left here for Seward some weeks ago with
Mr. and Mrs. William Taylor as passengers:
“The United States marsh* 1 in the Third
division will send Wil iam S. Covey, alias
Jack Spencer, back to Tanana in charge of
a deputy from that division. Covey was
arrested at Anchorage on the charge of lar
ceny. It is alleged in a warrant sworn to
before Commissioner Delin that Covey stole
a team of five dogs, harness and sled a;
Tanana.
"When the marshal’s office here received
the information it sought to intercept the
alleged thief at Iditarod, when it was as
certained that he had gone, but before the
word could be gotten there Covey had left
for the coast.
“According*y Marshal Erwin wired Mar
shal Brenneman to intercept the man when
he arrived at Seward. In his wire to the
mar.-: al of the Third division Marshal Er
win described the man wanted for larceny,
for he supposed that the name he would go
under on the coast would be different from
that used in the Interior.
“Yesterday Marshal Brenneman wired
Marshal Erwin that the man wanted by him
had been Ucated at Ancohrage. The wire,
received by Marshal Erwin is as follows:
“ 'Covey arrested Anchorage for larceny j
of dog team under name of Jack Soeneer. j
Advi.-p where wanted. If at Fairbanks, will :
-end deputy from here to Anchorage and
bring to Fail banks. Taylor and wife 0. K [
at Anchorage. BRENNEMAN.’
“Covey misrepresented himself ad along •
the trail, from Tanana to Anchorage, accord- ’
ing to reports received by the marshal. ,
"It is understood that besides the charge j
of larceny, the warrant for his arrest charges ;
him with not that alone, but with several
■ ither breaches of the law. Until Ins am-; j
the fret that such a case existed was not
•. nerrilv known, but now that lie will be
returned to stand trial Marshal Erwin de
cided to release it to the public. The fact
that Covey was so easily intercepted proves
that this is a very difficult country to
escape from if the authorities keep a care
ful watch on the various lines of travel.”
