Women’s fashions calling for wear
ing as little as possible and that little
made of silk are causing causing the
cotton mills of the Northern States to
close down, says Felix Bouchet, one
of the best known oldtime mining men
!of the Interior, who returned Satur
j
| day from the East.
It was Mr. Bouchet’s first visit Out
| side for more than T>0 years, and the
|
j changes that had taken place were
startling. For instance there were the
prevailing fashions of dress—or un
dress.
“It's terrible!” said Mr. Bouchet i*
discussing his impressions before con
tinuing his journey to Fairbanks. “The
little clothing the women are wearing!
11 know! One would think they would
| catch their death of cold. Nothing
I but silk is worn. That is one of the
j reasons why cotton manufacturing
: plants of the North are compelled to
close down. It’s “dog-on” little clothing
they wear these days. Undershirts
are a thing of the past. Just three or
four pieces are now worn—a waist,
skirt, bloomers and something else—
I don’t know what they call ’em—un
der the waist. And shoes! You never
see anything like it up here in Alaska!
Out there they are wearing shoes and
slippers with heels that are actually
three inches high!”
COLO HEINE ECHOED
FROM THE AIR IN N.!.
NEW YORK. May 20. (JP)—Picking
gold out of the air suggests a fairy
tale, but that is exactly what is done
at the New York assay office in Wall
street, says Popular Mechanics Mag
azine. Tests have shown that the
method is saving the government
thousands of dollars that otherwise
would be wasted. The minute parti
cles of fiie metal are taken from the
fumes in the smelting furnaaces.
High-pressure forced draft drives
the gases up the stack to ‘“settling
chambers,” where the gold is taken
out by a special electrical process
before the residue fumes are releas
ed. Since the mechanism was in
stalled, it is estimated that gold to
the amount of not less than $12,000
has been received.

NORTHERN NOTES
Another new industry is soon to be
added to the growing list in Ketchi
kan—a plant to fillet fish and to turn
out smoked and kippered herring and
salmon, which will furnish work the
year round when fully developed.
The new industry will be establish
ed under the name of the Ketchikan
Fish Co., with J. E. Borg manager
and president. Papers are now
being drawn up. It will be a strict
ly private corporation with no stock
for sale, and fully financed. The old
Ketchikan iron works plants, owned
by the Ketchikan Cold Storage Co.,
will be utilized for the plant.

ers on the Princess Alice for Wran
gell, with an outfit for the season’s
mining operations on claims which
they own on the Clearwater, a tribu
tary of the Stickine river 140 miles
from the mouth. The Princess Alio?
on this trip carries considerable
freight for the Stickine river, which
j Messrs. Hassas and Brydon are in
terested with Sid Barrington in min
ing claims on new ground. They ex
I pect to get their outfits up the river
I at once. Mr. Hallas said it was too
! early as ye! to make much, of a
jtorecast on possible mining opera
tions in the Stickine river district,
ibut he believed activity would con
, tinue on a larger scale this summer.
| Word has been received that repre
J sentnlives of London and New York
capital will give the district the once
over this summer.

raising considerable disturbance over
a bill. He was a patient at the
