Editor Gazette:—Before leaving for Alaska, the latter part of July, in common with most eastern people I had sort of a notion that Alaska was a land of avalanches and Icebergs. Having now returned from a visit to that country. I have thought it might be interesting to some, of your readers to know some little of my impressions. southern Alaska with a warm stream. This has the effect of tempering tne climate of all the country southward of the Aleutian mountain chain, which extends northeastward from the base of the Aleutian Peninsula. This area of land is very extensive. During the summer time, from March to September, the sun shines from 18 to 22 hours every day and the temperature is pleasant and agreeable, producing an exceedingly rapid growth of vegetation. Consequently we find here various sorts of trees, spruce, Cottonwood or balm of gilead, quaking aspen, white birch and alder bushes, with occasional stretches of marsh land containing most excellent grass. In fact, the grass of Alaska, both of the open lands and through the timber, grows with surprising rapidity. It is of a taking somewhat the nature of our common "red top," which grows in the hay fields of the east and is everywhere present through our gardens about home. This grass is found growing to the height of four to seven feeti The benr was killed in a hunting expedition by his majesty Alexander II. of Russia lu lfVD7, according to the in script ion on a bronze plate on the base of the mounting, and was presented by Czav Alexander to "the Duke of Osuma, Comte l'Ynfantando, Duke de Buenevito and l'Aroos Prince d'Ebodle." The house of Ebodie became extinct in the eighties, and the effects in the palace of the prince were disposed of by public sale. The bear was purchased by Hannis Taylor, then minister of the United States at Madrid. Oliver J.

NO CLUE WHATEVER YET BLOOMSBURG'S BIG FIRE I left Seattle early in August, taking the outside passage, which route avoids all of the islands and channels near the coast and proceeds directly to Valdez and Seward, Alaska. If you could imagine the district of Alaska having the shape of an elephant's head, with the Alaska Peninsula afid the Aleutian islands form* ing the elephant's trunk, then Prince Williams Sound would be under the elephant's chin and Cook's Inlet would form the elephant's mouth.

The search Is Since last Saturday night, when l-iuclano Pariano was shot to death In Browntown. the police have been unable to gain the slightest clue that might lead to the Identity of his murderers. The better acquainted they bocome with the details of the crime the more certain they are that those implicated In it had all arrangements made, even to the way of their escape. There is usually something left In a murder case that might give the police a chance to get a start, but in the present case the crime remains as deep a mystery as ever.

The Bloomsburg Press says that, because of a rush of work, a night force was at work Inst night. With a report that was heard In other departments of the mill the lamp exploded, igniting a can of oil. which, catching Are, filled the room with flames. In a moment the employes were on the scene but already the fire was beyond the reach of fire extinguishers. which were thrown on the fire and Impeded Its progress for a few seconds, but that was all. The plant was equipped with a fire syntejn, but the flames had enveloped the fire pump and It was impossible for the workmen to turn it on. The northern end of the inlet terminates with two large bays or arms, one known as Turnagaln arm—so named because when Capt. Cook entered this arm he found he had to "turn again" and could not pass through to the Atlantic by that route; the Other arm is known as Knik arm. These two bodies of water form a "Y" at the head of the Inlet. YOUNG NAN IS MISSING ANOTHER COURT HOUSE HITCH County Detective Richard Jones has spent considerable time near the scene of the crime, ■ and he admits that he has been unable so far to even commence the solution of it. He said In an Interview today: "You may say that the county authorities, aided by the Plttston police department, are doing all that lies in their power to solve the murder and learn who the murderers arc. So far, however, we have been unable to pet the slightest inkling that might lead to the discovery of the men responsible for the deed. The county police force are sadly handicapped by not having a detective acquainted with the foreign languages, and I wish something might be said that would induce the proper authorities to authorize the expC use of such a man." The body df Parrlno was burled this'mornlng in the Italian cemetery on Market street. There were 110 services and no mourners -In the cemetery. The man's widow and about ten other Italians went to the morgue of Undertakers L.ydon & Murray and 3pent a short time thero before the body was taken away. It was then placed in a wagon and taken to the cemetery. None of the man's relatives or friends followed.

Originally he favored the Nicaragua route, but when it was demonstrated that It must be the Panama canal or nothing he favored the Panama route, as he wanted to see a canal built. Notwithstanding the efforts of certain people who are striving by their circulation of false rumors or other methods to delay or defeat the construction of the canal tha president said tbey would be disappointed, for there Is going to be a canal. Health conditions on the isthmus, he said, are better now than ever. Must Rely on Volunteer*. The tides In this vicinity are extreme, being between 50 and 60 feet, bo that the navigation of the inlet and these arms can only be accomplished at high tide. When the tide is In, there is a wide ocean of muddy glacial water; when the tide is out. the-arms become a region of muddy flats and steamers remaining from one tide to the other must rest on this mud. The tide rushing into the Turnagain arm produces a great "bore", that Is, a wall of water from two to five feet high rushing along at the rate of about eight miles an hour, and woe betide any small boat or vessel which Is so unfortunate as to be caught by this on-rushing bore. Be Found. That Were AH Ready The negotiations for the transfer of the new court house contract are again off. At noon 'today a meeting was hel(J at the court house, with the expectation that everything was ready for the signing of the transfer papers, but a bomb was thrown into the meeting by the announcement of Controller -Norris that he would not sign (lie papers unless he were authorized to appoint an inspector, on behalf of the county, at a salary of $5,000 a year. This the commissioners refused to do, declaring that such an appointment would be illegal. Thus the matter stands this afternoon. The flames spread with frightful rapidity, the paper and raw material being as so much tinder. In five minutes after the fire started, the entire plant, covering several acres, was a mass of flames. All that It was possible for the employee to do was t*» fasten th« whistle so that the countrysUfeVvaa alarmed, the people coming 'pir\\e scene only to find that they we®, unable to be of any service. All the papers of the company were In the fire. Some of them, fortunately, were In the safe, which makes It a possibility that they may be saved. Our Journey continued thence to the town of Seward, which Is at the head of Resurrection Bay, a beautiful body of water very deep and smooth, which forms a most excellent land-locked harbor. This town is a new one, having been located only a year ago. The population now Is 1,200. It is the terminus of a, new railroad now being constructed from this point northward to the center of a large area ramified by navigable waters In the Interior o£ the gold mining districts of central Alaska. Ilwi Hunting Wltli a Friend In u Veld—Companion Walked Boy Was 1# Years of Age and Had Ahead of Ilini' and He CoukI Not Find Him Ijater, A strange case of a disappearance and one that might be very difficult to solve is reported from upper Parsonage street. A 19 year old Polish boy has been missing from his home on that street for five days and. despite many efforts to locate him, his whereabouts remain a mystery. The boy's name has not been learned, but his family is respectable in Polish circles.The climate of this portion of Alaska is very materially affected by the warm Japanese current, which, passing eastward, bathes the shores of Our little steamer ascended to the THE SHEA CASE. All the buildings, with the exception of the engine room, were frame and this increased the Intensity of the flames. The plant was equipped with the most modern machinery that goes with the equipment of a thoroughly modern plant.

We iuust therefore bring up and beep up our navy to the highest point of efficiency. In the event of war the Araerl can people must rely mainly upon its volunteer soldiers. While It is comparatively a simple act to turn a man Into quite a good soldier, you can neither improvise a battleship or the crew of a battleship. It is not necessary that we should have a particularly large navy, but It is necessary that ship for ship It should be a little the best In the world."

They had but one gun between them and spent several hours in the woods. They were returning home along a strip of land between the Susquehanna and Lackawanna rivers, and, in order to make a short cut, they started to walk through a planted field. ThC_y were half way through the field when a farmer called out to them to wait for him. The older of the hunters took the gun and ran away, having the younger to meet the farmer. The older waited for some time at the end of the Held and, a» his companion did not rejoin him, ho finally decided to turn back and look lor him. He returned to the spot where they hod seen the farmer but could get no glimpse of the younger man.

Editor Gazette:—Before leaving for Alaska, the latter part of July, in common with most eastern people I had sort of a notion that Alaska was a land of avalanches and Icebergs. Having now returned from a visit to that country. I have thought it might be interesting to some, of your readers to know some little of my impressions. southern Alaska with a warm stream. This has the effect of tempering tne climate of all the country southward of the Aleutian mountain chain, which extends northeastward from the base of the Aleutian Peninsula. This area of land is very extensive. During the summer time, from March to September, the sun shines from 18 to 22 hours every day and the temperature is pleasant and agreeable, producing an exceedingly rapid growth of vegetation. Consequently we find here various sorts of trees, spruce, Cottonwood or balm of gilead, quaking aspen, white birch and alder bushes, with occasional stretches of marsh land containing most excellent grass. In fact, the grass of Alaska, both of the open lands and through the timber, grows with surprising rapidity. It is of a taking somewhat the nature of our common "red top," which grows in the hay fields of the east and is everywhere present through our gardens about home. This grass is found growing to the height of four to seven feeti The benr was killed in a hunting expedition by his majesty Alexander II. of Russia lu lfVD7, according to the in script ion on a bronze plate on the base of the mounting, and was presented by Czav Alexander to "the Duke of Osuma, Comte l'Ynfantando, Duke de Buenevito and l'Aroos Prince d'Ebodle." The house of Ebodie became extinct in the eighties, and the effects in the palace of the prince were disposed of by public sale. The bear was purchased by Hannis Taylor, then minister of the United States at Madrid. Oliver J.

NO CLUE WHATEVER YET BLOOMSBURG'S BIG FIRE I left Seattle early in August, taking the outside passage, which route avoids all of the islands and channels near the coast and proceeds directly to Valdez and Seward, Alaska. If you could imagine the district of Alaska having the shape of an elephant's head, with the Alaska Peninsula afid the Aleutian islands form* ing the elephant's trunk, then Prince Williams Sound would be under the elephant's chin and Cook's Inlet would form the elephant's mouth.

The search Is Since last Saturday night, when l-iuclano Pariano was shot to death In Browntown. the police have been unable to gain the slightest clue that might lead to the Identity of his murderers. The better acquainted they bocome with the details of the crime the more certain they are that those implicated In it had all arrangements made, even to the way of their escape. There is usually something left In a murder case that might give the police a chance to get a start, but in the present case the crime remains as deep a mystery as ever.

The Bloomsburg Press says that, because of a rush of work, a night force was at work Inst night. With a report that was heard In other departments of the mill the lamp exploded, igniting a can of oil. which, catching Are, filled the room with flames. In a moment the employes were on the scene but already the fire was beyond the reach of fire extinguishers. which were thrown on the fire and Impeded Its progress for a few seconds, but that was all. The plant was equipped with a fire syntejn, but the flames had enveloped the fire pump and It was impossible for the workmen to turn it on. The northern end of the inlet terminates with two large bays or arms, one known as Turnagaln arm—so named because when Capt. Cook entered this arm he found he had to "turn again" and could not pass through to the Atlantic by that route; the Other arm is known as Knik arm. These two bodies of water form a "Y" at the head of the Inlet. YOUNG NAN IS MISSING ANOTHER COURT HOUSE HITCH County Detective Richard Jones has spent considerable time near the scene of the crime, ■ and he admits that he has been unable so far to even commence the solution of it. He said In an Interview today: "You may say that the county authorities, aided by the Plttston police department, are doing all that lies in their power to solve the murder and learn who the murderers arc. So far, however, we have been unable to pet the slightest inkling that might lead to the discovery of the men responsible for the deed. The county police force are sadly handicapped by not having a detective acquainted with the foreign languages, and I wish something might be said that would induce the proper authorities to authorize the expC use of such a man." The body df Parrlno was burled this'mornlng in the Italian cemetery on Market street. There were 110 services and no mourners -In the cemetery. The man's widow and about ten other Italians went to the morgue of Undertakers L.ydon & Murray and 3pent a short time thero before the body was taken away. It was then placed in a wagon and taken to the cemetery. None of the man's relatives or friends followed.

Originally he favored the Nicaragua route, but when it was demonstrated that It must be the Panama canal or nothing he favored the Panama route, as he wanted to see a canal built. Notwithstanding the efforts of certain people who are striving by their circulation of false rumors or other methods to delay or defeat the construction of the canal tha president said tbey would be disappointed, for there Is going to be a canal. Health conditions on the isthmus, he said, are better now than ever. Must Rely on Volunteer*. The tides In this vicinity are extreme, being between 50 and 60 feet, bo that the navigation of the inlet and these arms can only be accomplished at high tide. When the tide is In, there is a wide ocean of muddy glacial water; when the tide is out. the-arms become a region of muddy flats and steamers remaining from one tide to the other must rest on this mud. The tide rushing into the Turnagain arm produces a great "bore", that Is, a wall of water from two to five feet high rushing along at the rate of about eight miles an hour, and woe betide any small boat or vessel which Is so unfortunate as to be caught by this on-rushing bore. Be Found. That Were AH Ready The negotiations for the transfer of the new court house contract are again off. At noon 'today a meeting was hel(J at the court house, with the expectation that everything was ready for the signing of the transfer papers, but a bomb was thrown into the meeting by the announcement of Controller -Norris that he would not sign (lie papers unless he were authorized to appoint an inspector, on behalf of the county, at a salary of $5,000 a year. This the commissioners refused to do, declaring that such an appointment would be illegal. Thus the matter stands this afternoon. The flames spread with frightful rapidity, the paper and raw material being as so much tinder. In five minutes after the fire started, the entire plant, covering several acres, was a mass of flames. All that It was possible for the employee to do was t*» fasten th« whistle so that the countrysUfeVvaa alarmed, the people coming 'pir\\e scene only to find that they we®, unable to be of any service. All the papers of the company were In the fire. Some of them, fortunately, were In the safe, which makes It a possibility that they may be saved. Our Journey continued thence to the town of Seward, which Is at the head of Resurrection Bay, a beautiful body of water very deep and smooth, which forms a most excellent land-locked harbor. This town is a new one, having been located only a year ago. The population now Is 1,200. It is the terminus of a, new railroad now being constructed from this point northward to the center of a large area ramified by navigable waters In the Interior o£ the gold mining districts of central Alaska. Ilwi Hunting Wltli a Friend In u Veld—Companion Walked Boy Was 1# Years of Age and Had Ahead of Ilini' and He CoukI Not Find Him Ijater, A strange case of a disappearance and one that might be very difficult to solve is reported from upper Parsonage street. A 19 year old Polish boy has been missing from his home on that street for five days and. despite many efforts to locate him, his whereabouts remain a mystery. The boy's name has not been learned, but his family is respectable in Polish circles.The climate of this portion of Alaska is very materially affected by the warm Japanese current, which, passing eastward, bathes the shores of Our little steamer ascended to the THE SHEA CASE. All the buildings, with the exception of the engine room, were frame and this increased the Intensity of the flames.

We iuust therefore bring up and beep up our navy to the highest point of efficiency. In the event of war the Araerl can people must rely mainly upon its volunteer soldiers. While It is comparatively a simple act to turn a man Into quite a good soldier, you can neither improvise a battleship or the crew of a battleship.

They had but one gun between them and spent several hours in the woods. They were returning home along a strip of land between the Susquehanna and Lackawanna rivers, and, in order to make a short cut, they started to walk through a planted field. ThC_y were half way through the field when a farmer called out to them to wait for him. The older of the hunters took the gun and ran away, having the younger to meet the farmer. The older waited for some time at the end of the Held and, a» his companion did not rejoin him, ho finally decided to turn back and look lor him. He returned to the spot where they hod seen the farmer but could get no glimpse of the younger man.
