A new and prosperous business
has been built in Alaska, with Ket
chikan as its headquraters, says
the Ketchikan Chronicle.
It was only a few years ago that
Campbell Church conceived the
idea of bringing hunting, fishing
and sight-seeing parties to Alaska
in specially chartered yachts. The
I business has grown from a part
time pastime to an industry of
major proportions.
This year six yachts are being
kept busy all operating out of Ket- j
■ chikan, and to date some 500 cruis
ling days have been arranged for
the season.
Supplies are bought in Ketchi
kan, and most of the parties outfit
there. Guides are employed from
there, and while many of the par
I ties are picked up in Prince Rupert,
I many also are to be transferred
from steamer to yacht at Ketchi
kan.
This business now is being con
ducted by Campbell Church Jr.,
Phimstero Proctor and Wiley Bent,
all of Seattle, and R. A. Veatch,
! who as the Alaska representative,
| spends all of his time in the Terri
! tory.
! As an example of how the busi
ness has been built up, it was
(pointed out tliat the concern this
j year has spent $20,000 in advertis
ing Alaska attractions. That the
advertising has proved worthwhile
is evidenced by the frequency with
which the yachts are making their
Alaskan cruises.

PEIPING, July 21, (/P)—Money
has become an unreal thing to
Americans who work in China and
who are paid here in the currency
of this country. Owing to the de
preciation of silver. Chinese dol
lars seem next to worthless if con
verted into U. S. currency; and,
owing to charctie conditions in
China, it is impossible to invest
these silver dollars safely in China
itself.
Unable to send their savings
home, except- at a loss, and unable
to invest them here, except as a
gamble, Americans and other for
eigners are tending more and more
this year to pour their funds into
frankly speculative enterprises in
China, according to the Denver
Mining record.
The cost of living here has be
come as unreal as the money it
self. Imported articles are so ex
pensive in comparison with native
merchandise that the housewives
are forced to readjust all of their
j ideas of values.
A cake of cheap laundry soap
costs as much as a chicken; four
ordinary 10-inch phonograph re
cords cost as much as a ton of
coal; a pound of coffee costs as
much as eight pounds of the best
beefsteak; and a can of corn or
peas costs as much as two dozen
fresh eggs.
22,000,000 SALMAN FRY
The finest lot of red salmon fry
ever hatched and reared in Alaska
are now in the ponds at Yes Bay |
hatchery, in Southeast Alaska and ;
soon will be released to make their
way to the briny deep or where j
ever they go in the years that i
swallow them up from the time of
migration ot their return in par
ent streams. Some 22,000,000 red
salmo ry are to be released
cording to the Juneau Empire.

of cetdova for many years, passed
