companies. Mr. DeMills has one of

tle ami is very much impressed with
the development of Anchorage. He
says the city is assuredly entitled to

action by the merchants would proba
bly bring about the required results.

FROM FACTORY DIRECT
TO THE EMPRESS THEATRE
Flop, th > factory direct to the Em
press screen; that is, -is fast as mo
tive power can filing the Hearst-Pa
the news service from the studio to
Anchorage. On his last trip to the
outside Captain A. K. Lathrop closed
a year’s contract with the Hearst-Pa
the combination whereby the news
service is sent direct to Anchorage
and the local movie fans can view the
exciting and entertaining happenings
of the world l ight off the bat.
Formerly it was necessary to wait
as long as three months to see the
j reproduction of some event of nation
I al interest but by the present ar
■ rangoment this splendid news service
j will lie thrown oil the Empress screen
in Anchorage as soon as in Seattle, j
! barring of course, the difference in ;
lime.
Commencing last night the Empress
will run the Hearst-Pathe News serv
ice twice a week and it will not be ;
second-hand, nor will it be ancient j
history, but. figuratively speaking, j
before the echoes of the cheers which 1
(greet President Wilson in a public j
demonstration in New York have:
reached the Palisades the people of j
Anchorage may see the reproduction
of the vast gathering on the Empress
screen.
The film news service has been the
matter of general education and does j
much to keep different parts of the;
country in touch with each other. In
making this contract Captain Lathrop (
was indeed fortunate and far-seeing;
the people of Anchorage, too, are for
tunate in having the Empress with a
considerate management who is con
tinually feeling the pulse of the local
movie audience and endeavoring to
satisfy its every whim and impulse.
BODY OF I N KNOWN M AN
FOFNI) IN KINO RIVER
The body of an unknown man was
found Sunday in King river three and
one-half miles from King river station
on the Matanuska branch, by a party
of men working at Camp 27.
The officials were duly notified and
Judge Conroy left yesterday for the!
scene, accompanied by Marshal Frank
Hoffman, of Matanuska. It is report- ’
ed that the body is in a good state of
preservation and will possibly be iden
tified.
The first rumor to reach Anchor- •
age was to the effect that it was i
the body of Ross, the prospector, who'
wsa drowned last fall in the Little Su
sitna, but this theory is undoubtedly
erroneous.
The authorities state that they have
had no recent news of missing men j
and no death has been reported from
that vicinity other than accounted for.
Judge Conroy will return tonight with
full particulars of the identity.
ANCHORAGE TO HAVE
18-PIECE BRASS BAND
Anchorage is going to have a hand,
a real band composed of at least 18
pieces, the players are going to have
uniforms and the band will be a credit
to the city and a much needed acqui
sition. Jimmie Cort. the prime mov
er in the matter, appeared before the
Anchorage Chamber of Commerce last j
night in behalf of the movement and
the Chamber voted to give its unquali- j
tied support, individually and collec
tively, morally and financially. Mr.
Cort said that the organization was
virtually perfected but that it would
require in the neighborhood of $700 to
properly finance it. There are several i
instruments, music, stands and uni
forms to buy and these things are all
absolutely necessary for a well
equipped and organized band. The
public will be called upon for assist
ance and the merchants generally have
signified that they are perfectly wil
ling to support the movement.
SERVICES IN EPISCOPAL
CHl'RCH HELD HERE SI'NDAY
—
The first service was held in the new j
Parish Hall of All Saints Mission of '
the Episcopal church last Sunday
morning. The trustees and the lad- i
ies of xne guild have worked very i
faithfully to complete this new parish I
hall, xne plans of which were laid out j
by Bishop Rowe.
The building is particularly adapta
ble for use as a “work shop.” The
cnancel can be shut off from the main
part of the building thus enabling it to
be used as a social hall. In addition to
the main assembly room two rooms
1 have been constructed which will be
used by Mr. Hughes as living quar- j
ters.
For the present the Sunday services
will be as follows:
8:00 a. m. Holy Communion.
11:00 a. m. Holy Communion first
j Sunday in month.
11:00 a. m. Morning Prayer and Ser
mon (except first Sunday.)
12:15 p. m. Sunday School.
7:30 p. m. Evening Prayer and Ad
' dress.
All are cordially invited to attend
| these services. The evening service
] will be made especially simple for
those not familiar with the services of
! the Episcopal church. The sunday
j school will meet this coming Sunday
! for organization.
Peterson’s hotel has additional new
rooms now ready. 2

properties adjoining or in close prox
imity to the Bonanza mine of the Ken
necott Copper company, in Alaska,
has sold $200,000 six per cent ten year
convertible bonds to a Pittsburgh syn

net earnings now being derived from
shipments of high-grade ore, will be
used to install a power plant, build a
wagon road and erect a concentrator,
all of which it is hoped will be com
pleted before the end of the present

The Tacoma Smelting company this!
year has put into effect a rule that \
it will only pay 121 a cents per pound;
for the copper metal at delivery. This |
is subject to a further reduction of t
2'a cents from the New Yprk price on
the day of the settlement; the balance
of the remittance is to be made 120
days after that date.
On’ March 15 the company received i
$13,506 in part payment for 177,340
pounds of ore, which arrived at the
smelter on the steamer Victoria. This
assayed 59.10 per cent copper and
14.62 ounces of silver.
On March 27 the company received
$27,485 in part payment for 630,860
pounds of second class ore, which as
sayed 34.9 per cent copper and 8.9
ounces of silver. Up to March 30,
last it had received from the smelter
<102,940 for the sale of copper ore
extracted during 1916.
