PHILIP S. SMITH, ENROUTE TO
NOME ON THE STEAMER
VICTORIA
Philip S. Smith, chief of the Alaska
branch of the U. S. geological survey,
returned to Seward yesterday from
Interior points, boarding the steamer
Victoria for Nome. He was accom
panied by his son, Sidney.
Mr. Smith, who annually visits the !
Territory will visit new fields and at j
the same time will check up on the ;
investigations now being carried on !
by four survey parties which have '
been working in the Mt. Spur, Nizina i
and Copper River districts. He will j
spend some time in the north wrest- j
ern district of Seward penninsula,
where there is an area which has
never been mapped by the bureau.
His work principally will be in trying
to correlate the rock series in the
district with "work which has already
been done north of the Endicott
range. He will visit Hot Springs on
the Tanana River, where some min
ing revival is being experienced.
While in the Interior last week he
visited certain points along the Alas
ka Railroad in company with B. D.
Steward, supervising mining engi
neer of the geological survey.

nent San Francisco advertising di
rector of the nationally known firm
of Foster and Kleiser, left Portland
yesterday, July 20, the Gateway is
advised, on his way to Seattle, the
port of departure for Seward and
western Alaska. Mr. Kleiser and his
party are coming on the steam yacht
Westward, Caption Roe Dykeman,
built and owned by Campbell Church
of Eugene. Oregon, who made a trip
last year with William Finley, Ore
gon naturalist, to the same grounds
Mr. Kleiser will cover. The West

D. Chidister, both of San Francisco,
Mr. Kleiser and his son George, pro
ceeding to Seward, thence to Kenai

the greater part of their time in hunt
ing moose, mountain sheep and cari
bou. The party will then leave for
Kodiak Island to hunt big brownies.
At the end of 60 days the party plans
to leave the Westward at Kodiak Is
land and return to the states by
steamer.
This is Mr. Kleiser’s first trip to
Alaska. He has spent the past three
summers hunting big game in New
Brunswick. The party will include
Mr. and Mrs. I. M. Green, Dr. and
Mrs. C. D. Chidister and son Edward,
Mrs. George Reiser, George Kleiser

'HUMMING BIRDS IN ALASKA
The question has often been asked
if there were humming birds in Alas
ka. From various sources, generally
from hunters, it is rei>orted humming
birds have been seen in the Terri
tory.' According to one story related
to the Gateway, was that of a duck
hunter discovering a humming bird
nestling on the back of a duck which
he had winged. ,
A REAL BASKET
Nellie Lawing returned yesterday 1
from Russian* river with the fish
ing party "which she took down the
lake few days ago and that the trip
was highly successful can be judged
solely from the results of the outing
for the party returned with, it is
reported, over 200 pounds of the
Rainbow trout, the average running
from five and one- half inches to
well over that size.
