Phillips Smith and seven cornpan- |
ions returned to Seattle yesterday I
froni u summer exploration and j
geological survey trip and report i
the finding of vast deposits of coal ;
within the Arctic Circle and ex- j
plored hitherto unpenetr*' aide
wastes. Dr. Phillips said 'Tho
foothills and great valleys which
lie to the north of the Enriicott
range contain some of th/» great
est bodies of coal on the American
continent, proving that Alaska once
had temperature of not subtropi
cal climate. There is no vege
t :tiun now suitable to form coal.”
After leaving Seattle in January
and heading north from Ntenana
with dogs two parties were formed,
one exploring Colville river and
tributaries and the other chipp
river and adjacent streams. Smith
said it is the greatest game site
in the world, the fish being easily
netted or taking any bait offered.
The party is leaving Seattle for
Washington, I). C. today.

the rule #ihat no one. on board the •
vessel shall smoke at any time and :
he ia also the only mitn who break*; f
Smoking on board an airship is j
exceedingly dangerous. An open
flame might at any time ignite the j
gas. But the doctor, who is very;
fond of his pipe, occasionally locks
himself in the pilot house and. en
tirely alone, takes a short and hur- !
ried smoke.
