1 FAIRBANKS MAN RUNS AMUR
AND SHOOTS PETE PETERSON
About 7 o’clock on the evening of
October 6 Jim Bernard ran amuk in
the restricted district of Fairbanks,
shooting Big Pete Peterson in the
shoulder with a 30-30 rifle, according
to the News-Miner. The injured man
is in the hospital, suffering considera
ble pain as a result of the wound, but
there is no doubt that he will recover.
Bernard is in jail awaiting a prelimi
nary hearing. ,c
Peterson was on Barnette street
when he saw Bernard enter the re
stricted district, carrying a rifle.
Fearing that he would injure some
one, Peterson followed him, and enter
ed the first house that he found open.
He started to telephone to the police
and as he did so Bernard fired through
the window. The injured man made a
hasty retreat through the back door
of the house and escaped three other
shots that were fired.
Later Bernard went to the Miners’
Home saloon on Garden island and
was arrested by Chief of Police Wise
man, who later turned him over to
the federal authorities.
It was stated at St. Joseph’s hos
pital that Peterson was resting as
comfortably as could be expected.
Physicians took an X-ray picture of
his shoulder and will extricate the bul
let.
FARMS ON RAILROAD
- MADE GOOD MONEY
(Seward Gateway.)
Several ranchers made good money
near Anchorage this year as they sold
their produce to the Engineering Com
mission, according to Henry C. Dohr
man, the Anchorage hardware man,
who has arrived in Seward. The
price given for potatoes by the Com
mission was forty-seven dollars a ton.
The most remarkable example, per
haps, of the value of a potato crop is
shown by a little farm owned by a
brother of Mr. Dohrman and another
man. This "farm was only two and a
half acres but its potato crop was
eleven tons. Multiplying eleven tons
by 47 shows that this two and a half
acres of Alaska land brought in over
$500 for one season.

GETTING PICTURES OF
CANADIANS ON SOMME
A REAL MAN’S JOB
—
LONDON, Nov. 10.—(By Mail.)—
Filming the Canadian “Tommies,” on
the Somme, is a dangerous but inter
esting occupation, according to the
man who has turned the crank or
pressed the bulb for months for the
benefit of all the eyes of Canada.
Canada’s official picture maker is
Lieutenant Ivor Castle, it has just
been.publicly announced. -'Armed only
with a black box and a photographic
lens he has been under fire hundreds
of times. Pictures which have thrilled
Canadian and American movie audi
ences and filled the Anglo-Canadian
newspapers have in most cases been
made with death lurking near.
Back in Fleet street where Castle
was a press photographer before the
war, he is hailed by his fellow journal
ists as a hero. Like veteran war cor
respondents, Castle practiced for the
job of filming Canada on the Somme
by photographic work during the little
skirmishes before the great world
war. He faced fire with his lens in
the . Chinese revolution, the Balkan
Turkish war, the South African war
and the Turco-Italian trouble. When ■
the king and queen arrived for the In- j
dian durbar, Castle was there to film
the ceremonies. But these were mere
tries, compared with the Canadians on
the Somme, Castle has told his Fleet
street colleagues.

“Civilization is the most powerful sermon on the need
of true Christianity ever preached to man since the cru
cifixion.”—Chicago Tribune.
“Civilization doesn’t suggest, it does. It boldly and
thrillingly sets forth in actual pictures the processes of a
wonderful dramatic imagination.”—Chicago News.
“The picture (“Civilization”) registers in no uncertain
fashion what we of today have to show when we answer
civilisation’s roll call.”—Chicago American.
