WILL ASTONISH SOURDOUGHS
WITH BOBSLED AEROPLANE
A. A. Allen, better known as “Scotty,1'
canine expert par excellence, who has been
elected a member of Alaska’s territorial legis
lature, which will meet at Juneau next
March, instead of crossing the l.dOO miles
of ice and snow between Nome and the
territorial capital by dog team, will use a
new mechanical contrivance, known as an
auto-sled. It is a combination of the aero
flane and the Yukon bobsled.
Northern seers gifted with prophecy fore
cast the passing of the time-honored xnala
mute dog team, and predict that drummers
who have to make winter trips in the North
in a few years will be traveling in de luxe
nit tied?, natch the same as the residents
of Outside cities travel in automobiles.
Alien bred and raced dogs for more than
twenty year.-, tuner dog racing became a
fad in' Alaska Allen, driving his own teams
or those owned by Mrs. E. C. Daring and j
himself, ha? never competed unsuccess- j
f, 1 y. Three tmes he carried off the great j
prize, the All-Alaska Sweepstakes, the dog i
team classic of the North.
l,ivn-g in the North tor many years,
/•Hen tcnceiou ly hr.M to the theory that
the dog team forever would play an im
P rtsnt j art in the development of North
western Alaska. A trip to France, however,
changed his opinion.
Allen sold -130 malamute dogs to the
French government, and spent several days
in the Vosges mountains teaching the
French chausscurs how to drive them. He
rode from the coast to the fighting front
in an automobile, and while on the way
observed a squadron of aeroplanes engaged
in making observations. Why not the au
tomobile, the aeroplane and the Yukon bob
sled combined into an efficient machine'; j
He decided to try it, and spent last winter
in Berkeley, Ca!., in experimental work.
The machine which he budt was taken to
Nome lust summer, end this winter Allen
r.nd Nate Coombs, also a representative in
the territorial legislature, and somewhat
cf a dog puncher himself, wil; endeavor to
drive the contraption to Juneau.
The machine was tried at Nome this fall,
end it created considerable amazement
among the sourdoughs. It is said that- one
of them who was coming to town to cast
his vote at the elee'ion. after seeing the
device skittering through the atmosphere,
changed his mind and his vote for prohi
bition.
The one disadvantage that Alaskans can
tee about the machine lor travel in inac
cessible places is the vast amount of gaso- j
line that it consumes. They contend that ;
when the fuel supply for a dog team rims
•hort they can take a rifle and replenish |
the supply from the caribou herds or what j
other game animals happen to be around. :
But gasoline stations ore extremely scarce j
in the remote places, and therefore, for the
present, the airsled will be used only for
transportation thong well traversed routes.

; WOOLDRIDGE IS RELEASED
BY COURT OF APPEALS
(Fairbanks Citizen, Dec. 18)
‘Have secured a clear-cut reversal of
judgment in your case on grounds of in- j
sufficient evidence. Case not remanded for J
new trial. Congratulations. Mandate will
issue to lower court on January 1. Certi j
tied copy of opinion mailed today."
The foregoing were a few of the words i
contained in a fifty-word night letter re
ceived at the Wooldridge home last night
from James J. Crossley, formerly district
attorney for this division, but now of Port
and, Ore. They mean that W H. Wool
dridge, convicted of an attempt to commit
rape on the person of Laura Herrington, a
child under the age of lfi years, in local
courts last spring, hss been completely ex
onerated of the crime charged. For the
telegram explicitly says that the case is not
J remanded to the local courts for a new
! trial, as is usually the case when an ap
pellate court reverses a decision.
The case of the United States vs. Wool
dridge, together with its six companion j
cases, made that part of the last term of
court held here last spring the most sen
sational ever known in Interior Alaska. The
nature of the crimes charged, connected
| with the fact that some of the defendants,
larticularly Wooldridge and Callahan, were
men more or less prominent in public life,
;ave the cases even more prominence than
hev otherwise would have attained. For
ooth Wooldridge and Callahan had been
very active in bringing compiaiuts of vari j
ous kinds against local federal officials, and |
1 for this reason current opinion was that the j
prosecutions were “fixed."
Wooldridge was indicted by the grand I
jury on two counts; the perpetration of
the" crime and the attempted perpetration.
Wooldridge was convicted on the second
■ount in the indictmnet, the attempt to per
is'trate the crime. The evidence introduced
■ iy the prosecution tended to show that he
was trying to renew former intimacy with
the girl in the case, while Wooldridge s own
testimony showed that he was merely trying
o help "her family by taking potatoes to
their home when they were practically with
out food.
'Ihe evidence of the prosecution showed
that Wooldridge visited the Herrington
home one evening, but that, upon finding
that he was discovered he made a date with
lie girl to meet her at Rose’s bicycle shop,
the officials, according to their own story,
as told on the witness stand, were apprised
of this fact by the girl, and they made ar
rangements to catch Wooldridge on the
night that the date was kept.
Wooldridge denied all of the allegations
;f the witnesses for the government in this
•egard. He said that he was visiting the
recycle shop on the night in question when
the girl came running in and said that
omebody was following her. He went nut
to see who it was, he said, and it was then
that he was taken into custody, although he
was not placed in restraint until after the j
indictment against him had been returned .
bv the grand jury, some time later.
Two other appeals in cases of like nature, j
except that the defendants were convicted
of. perpetration of the crime, are now pend- ;
iig. They are those of Dan Callahan and j
I P. R,:.ss both of whom are now serving
sentences in the penitentiary.
A wri. known Fairbanks attorney stated i
hat, m his opinion, there was a mistake i
in the telegram received from Mr. Cros-ley. j
lie expressed no doubt that Wooldridge had
or-on completely vindicated cf the crime, but j
aid that the reason? for his vindication, as
given in the telegram, were not 1 gical.
Appellate courts, he said, arc prone to up- I
hold the decisions of lower couris. l or thi.
reason, had the' evidence been insufficient, .
as was stated in the telegram of Mr. Cross
lev, the case would have been remands
ark here for n new trial Ii is therefore
iiis attorney's opinion that the appelate |
-art, in rendering its decision, found that
h-r- original indictment did not state that a ;
1 lie offense had been committed, end was j
therefore valueless.
POSSIBILITIES OF AERIAL MAIL
INVESTIGATED BY NOME MAN
Eric Johnson, the well-known mail con j
tractor, was an arrival in Nome from the j
Yukon Sunday, after an extended visit to J
the Outside, which included a Sojourn at J
the Curtis school of aviation at Sail Diego, :
Cal., where he investigated the possibilities ,
of transmitting mails by aeroplane with a j
view to operating an aerial mail service in j
the event that satisfactory arrangements |
can be made with the government, according
to an article in the Nome Nugget of Oc
tober 17.
Mr. Johnson spent considerable time
learning the method cf handling the swift
air machines, and speaks in interesting man
ner of his flights at the Curtis school fields,
and also at the government aviation field in
the same locality.
He says it is a whole lot different from
mushing dogs, as the aeroplane is decidedly
more temperamental than are canines, but
he found it comparatively easy when the
idea was once grasped. His flights were
made with an experienced aviator, although
Johnson frequently guided the machine him
self after he had become acquainted with the
system of control. He states that pupils
receive their tutelage in machines
with a double system of controls, by means
of which the instructor can rectify any mis
takes of the student, by means of his own
control, thus obviating all danger of disas
ter overtaking the neophyte. Mr. Johnson
says that the only time one realizes the ter
rific speed of the machines is when leaving
the ground. Once in the air, all sense of
rapid motion is lost, and the machine ap
pears to be floating smoothly along at a
i leisurely pace. Flying in a piane is hardly
a novel experience any more, he avers, and
all kinds of people, both male and female,
indulge in skitters through the air at the
training schools. Mr. Johnson mentions an
old lady of 74 years who made a flight while
he was at the Curtis school, and who thor
oughly enjoyed her experience.
Mr. Johnson investigated particularly the
adaptability of the aeroplane to the condi
tions obtaining in this country, and an
nounces that he is perfectly satisfied with
the possibilities of transmitting the mails
during the summer season in all parts of
’e country, but further improvements are
essential to successful operation in the win
er. He says that the extreme cold of this
’tude makes it practically impossible for
a human being to sit long in a machine
without protection from the cold air.
Housing of some character, and also
warmth, must be provided before an avi
ator can make the long flights entailed in
Alaska mail transportation. For a summer
service Johnson favors the hydroplane, as
he says that the numerous lakes and rivers
offer ideal landing and starting places,
whereas the general surface of the country
presents poor facilities for starting or land
ing.
So well satisfied is he with the possibili
ties in this direction that he has already
communicated with the postoffice depart
ment with a view to making experimental
flights with mail during the coming season.
He says, however, that the department does |
not seem disposed to take an active interest j
at present, owing, doubtless, to the uncer
tainties of the election period.
WILL PUT ON STEAMSHIP
FOR SEWARD-BETHEL TRADE |
Another announcement made by Bunch
of the Alaska Steamship Company has much
significance in view of ill that has been
said about the balance of power, says the
Seattle Times. After he had given out the
j news of the invasion of the California routes
i yesterday afternoon, Bunch added that his
j company will enter the Kuskokwim river
trade also next season, operating at least
one freight and passenger vessel between |
| Seward and Bethel, on the Kuskokwim. The I
vast Kuskokwim district of Alaska is the
last northern region to be developed. Lack
of steam transportation facilities has held
it back. It is rich in gold and other re
sources.
It is presumed in shipping circles that the
Pacific Steamship Company also may in
vade the Kuskokwim traffic, with an eye
to the futhre balance of power.
The Alaska Steamship Company will place
the steamship Santa Ana on the route be
tween Seward and Bethel next May, the
! schedule providing for calls at Alaska penin- !
sula ports en route. Most of these ports
now are served in the summer by the fam
ous “big little” steamship Dora, the aquatic
bulldog of the North Pacific. The Santa
a a, with freight and passengers, will sail
May 20 from Seattle for Bethel direct, and
after discharging there will steam to Sew
aril to begin regular service in the run.
Bunch said that if the business warrants
the Dora also will be operated on the route.
I'he Kuskokwim river service will be main
tained from the end of May until the end
of August, with a round voyage each month.
The Santa Ana’s ports of cal after leav
ing Seward will consist of Seldovia, Kodiak,
Uyak, Karluk, Cold Bay, Chignik, Unga.
Sand Point, King Cove, Bclkofsky, Saanak, i
Scotch Cape, Cape Sariehef, Akutan, Una |
laska, Naknek, Nushagak and thence to j
Bethel.
If the Dora is not needed on the route j
he will be brought back to Seattle and tied
up. The Santa Ana is having new boilers
installed in Seattle. When she returns to
commission she will operate as a freighter
n the Seattle-Southeastern Alaska routes
mtil next May.
NOME GENIUS PERFECTS
“BOTTLED SUNSHINE" PLAN
“B Tiled Funehine" is what Albert Bernes, j
a looal machinist and a genius, calls Lis j
new invention a caloric contrivance that j
he uses to heat hi. house in winter and i > j
do washing, ironing and all other house !
hold tasks requiring stored force, says the
Nome Nugget.
On the hottest days in summer Mr. Barnes
catches the rays of the sun at the focus of
a bright tin roof on his house and conveys
the heat to his barn, which he has remod
eled into an immense model of a fircles^
a ker box. In this building great square,

Mr. Barnes claims that it took only ter.

nated with Mr. liarises when he was trying
to paint the roof of his house on a hot day.

there, and taking a beefsteak to the roof
he left it. After a wait of an hour he
crawled .to the top of the house and found
the steak cooked to a crisp. This incident
gave him the idea for his storage plant.
Hundreds of visitors are viewing the dish
shaped roof, the hothouse and heating sys
tem at the home of Mr. Barnes, who says
that as there is no meter on the sun he
does not expect to pay a cent for heat the
remainder of his life.

Wil.iam J. Bryan. He has dismantled his
orae at Fairview, shipped a portion of the |
furniture to his winter heme at Miami, Ha., I
and is sending bis large library, which he
-really prizes, to his summer home at Ashe

ast his vote. Fairview is said to be for _
sle, although Mr. Bryan’s brother. C. W.
Bryan, denies that Mr. Bryan has left Ne- j
rraska for all time. Many Nebraska Demo- \
■rats believe he has his eye on the Prohi- !
bition presidential nomination in 1920. j
Mr. Bryan has been deposed as the Deni- |
cratic leader in Nebraska by United States -
'enator G. M. Hitchcock, who was_ re- ‘
dectod over Mr. Bryan’s most determined
opposition. Furthermore, Keith Neville, a
then unknown man from the western part

vard was elected governor over the oppo
sition of both William J. and C. W. Bryan

ON BELGIAN DEPORTATIONS |
Vicorate Davignon, son of a former Bel- j
gian minister of foreign affairs, has informed I
London correspondents that appalling de- !
tails of the German deportation raids have J
| been received from Belgium, particularly
I from Antwerp and Waterloo. Tie vicomt
| rt news hi- plea that the United Slate- take
' action.
Among the Belgian men d- ior*ed from
Antwerp, the vicomte says, weie s.x priest.-, i
a vicar, many teachers and students, tint i
married workmen dwelling in Antwerp and!
he suburbs of B irgehcut and Berchem. At '
the cenrtr.1 station ct Antwerp an- ,
ithcr number of deportees have been dis- •
tributed in groups of seventy to eighty, who j
were given tickets without indication of |
their destination.
Already 5,000 persons have been deported |
from Antwerp. At Wateiloo til men be- j
tween the ages of 17 and 50 were called j
out and the street barred by soldiers. An |
actual razzia of able-bodied men followed, j
The refusal of the municipalities to furnish j
lists cf the unemployed is given by the Ger- j
man authorities as the direct cause of the 1
carrying oft of the employed men.
A Brussels paper controlled bv the Ger j
mans srys that til this is due to the fact I
that owing to their scrupi-3 Belgian work ;
men generally refuse to work on repairs ol j
railway material, under the pretext that if '
it was repaired the material eventually
would he employed for militrry purposes.
The Belgian authorities explain the uu |
employment cf Belgian workmen by say- i
ing that 600,000 are condemned to idleness, j
due to the measures taken by the German j
authorities themselves. Industry has been j
crippled since the first year. Work has |
been made impossible by a decree forbid- j
ling the Belgians to work outside their l
homes, as in Belgium most of the imius- !
lriai districts get their workmen entirely i
ir partly from villrges and hand -H five or j
ten miles away.
It has become impossible to run the re ;
maining factories. This country of hgut
radroads has been deprived of its cars anil j
rails, which were sent to the Russian front, j
fires of bicycles have been seized, and work
men are Unable to reach the factories. Trade j
has been crippled directly by the increasing ,
number of Zcntrad-talK establishing a mo ,
nopcly for the acquisition of all kinds of ,
material, manufactures and products. More- j
over, the German authorities are .slid ere- ,
ating unemployment.

CHRISTMAS DAY DOG RACE
FURNISHED SPORT AT RUBY;
The Ruby Hospital race, run last Christ- ;
mas day, furnished surprises to those inter- |
ested in the various canine speed balls
piloted by the dog men of this vicinity. j
Walter Goyne’s team showed speed equal to 1
the best nf George Jimmy of last year, and I '
K. Coke Hill got into the money.
Last year George Jimmy made 24:01. ,
beating G- .-go Ca;l when the latter made i
bis best time. But the track he ran on j
was just a sixth of s mile shorter than the ,
>rcs' itr one, which makes his performance j
mil that of Walter Goyue practically a tic. i
Many expected to see Alex Brown win, and i
even money was wagered freely, taking him j <
against the field. Brown himself said that ■ '
h's degs were sore footed anil stiff as the ‘ ,
result of their long run to Fairbanks and ! ,
return during the recent cold weather, but, 1
with Jimmy not running, it was generally
"xpected that Brown would win. George ,
fimmy did not come up from Louden be- i
cause two of his dogs were in such poor ;
•.■undition, due to accidents, that they ceul.t
not run. '
Probably the most meritorious perform- ;
nee, save Goyne’s, v.as that of a team
licked up by G. C. (Ca.pt.) Lament, which
ics composed of a combination of Ur. ;
Good’s dogs, Joe Green’s (the Fred Swanson j
team) and Honey’s (from Louden). That ]
earn got fourth money, and made the first
hree miles in about 11 minutes anti 15 ,
-■econds- - three-quarters of a minute faster 1
hail any other team. Each teem had more J
r less trouble, and nianj’ think that had ;
he first four teams each gone through 1
vithout any mix-up they would have beaten '
28 minutes.
The distance was 28 miles 900 feet. The
track was fair, being very good in places
and not bed anywhere.
The entries and time iti the order of
starting were as follows: Basil Antoski,
33 :5G ; Alex Brown, 2G :45 ; Walter Coyne.
