ALASKA’S POET TO WRITE
WAR POEMS AT FRONT
Robert W. Service, Alaska's poet*
laureate, who for several months has
! been busy heaving bombs from French
to German trenches with a lacrosse
racquet, is going to write a book on
“Hallads of Hattie”—as soon as he
can find time. This story came in a
private letter from a publisher.
Frank C. Dodd, of Dodd, Meade &
Co., went to Fiance last April in an
e!r.)rt to find Sen he and induce him
to write some ooetiy dealing with the
war. Service was at the front and
Dodd was unable to get a pass per
mitting him to visit the trenches. He
was ont particularly anxious about
the trip anyway, as the point at
which Service was living at that time
was not very healthful, there being a
superfluity of German bullets and
pieces of shrapnel whistling through
the atmosphere. He left a letter for
Service and returned to the United j
States. A few days ago, Dodd re- j
ceived an answer, which he forward
ed to a friend of Service’s.
“I’ve been on the front for nearly ^
a year,” the Alaskan poet writes,
“and have developed considerable pro
ficiency as a bomb-thrower. If I ever
get back to America the anarchists
will be sure to will it to hire me. Late
ly I have been driving ammunition
automobile truck and doing ambulance
work, which is not quite as nerve-,
racking as is bomb throwing. Hut at i
that my nerves are becoming some- j
what frazzled. I guess it must In* the
noise. I'll have to quit before long,|
and when I get back to where it’s.
quieter I’ll see what I can do about'
writing something on the war.”
A story is told to the effect that |
some time ago Service rescued a I
wounded Irishman. The man died be
fore he reached a base hospital. Ser
vice, who, although he is a poet, has
good business sense, found in the
man’s pockets a copy of a poem on
“War” written in long hand. Servicel
read and thought it a master piece. |
He told newspaper correspondents of
the great tragedy. Here had been
discovered an unknown genius who
died on the eve of gaining public rec
ognition. The newspaper correspond
ents printed the story of the poem and
then it was discovered that the verse
had been written nearly sixty years
ago by an author of international
reputation.—Ex.

HOMESTEADERS GIVEN
WARNING BY LAND OFFICE
FAIRBANKS.—Since his arrival in
Fairbanks several days ago, the nat
land office. And having heard that
there are a number of homesteaders
who arc not complying with the law
in the matter of living on their home
steads for seven months out of each
year, Mr. Arundel has issued a warn
ing to them.
The non-compliance with the law on
the part of the homesteaders, accord
ing to Mr. Arundel, means that their
homestead locations are subject to
contest. And there are a number of
homesteaders in this vicinity who are
clearing and cultivating their home
steads without living on them, as is
required by law’. Therefore, anyone
who wishes to jump their claims may
do so, and could probably hold the
ground under the law, getting the
benefit of all the improvements made
by the first homesteader.—Ex.

ity cf Fairbanks has been brought to
the attention of C. K. Arundel, chief
of the field <Iivision of the general
mine to be worked in Alaska. It was
opened by the Alaska Commercial
Company, which immediately after
the cession of the territory to the
United States, established fur trading
posts at every accessibe point. One
of the main branches was on Unga
Island. The Apollo mine produced
nearly $5,000,000 and then the lead
suddenly disappeared in a vault. Vig
ilant search failed to reveal it again.
Cushing, who had been on the isl
and seven years before the lead was
lost, could not understand how such a
large body of ore—the vein is more
than 200 feet wide—could break otF
entirely and he searched assiduously
to rediscover it. Last spring his long
search proved successful. He pi ked
up the lead on the other side of the
mountain.
On his way to Seattle he met !!. II.
Doming, a Bellingham eannery man
ami capitalist, and Doming acting tor
himself and Alex H. Bradford of Bel
lingham, and S. C. Scotton and J. K.
Sumlucker of Chicago, optioned Cush
ing’s property for $30,000.
The discovery was first examined
by a mining engineer who roughly
estimated tin* amount of ore in sight
at 0,000,000 tons, running front 40c
to $! 1 per ton.
The Apollo mine was a big produc
er for more than 20 years, A CO
stamp mill, which i> .-'till on the
ground, was kept busy for that time.
The* tailings from the mine were run
into the hay. About two years ago
Otto W. Carlson, who made a fortune
at Nome and who for many year - wa.
superintendent of the Alaska Cam
mercial Company at Cnga, conceived
the idea of reclaiming these tailings
and treating the material by the* cyan
ide process. Ho began the installa
tion of a plant last year, and com
menced operations last summer.
We have the finest line of stoves
and ranges in A’.a>ku.
