Recognizing the need in Skagway
o' a dependable wood business Kel
ler Brothers have secured a per
il; i* from the government to estab
•iah a wood camp at Mud Bay, be
low Battery Point, on Lynn Canal,
and about 18 miles from Skagway.
Already several huudred cords of
WO&d have been cut there which
aro ready to be floated and towed
to the city. The Keller Brothers
expect to make this a permanent
business and one which can be de
pended upon to supply the city with
wood during the whole year.
A crew of men. and team of hors
es h"ve been working for some timq,
but owing to the stormy weather it
ha^ been almost impossible to raft
the wcod to towu. J. 1M. Keller said
this morning the timber would be
hauled iu rafts of from 1UU to
200 cords, hence it is necessary to
obti'u the use of a fairly large
boat.
Because of the lateness of the
season the wood will have to be
rafted and brought to town during
the winter months. Another year
the timber will be cut during the
witter and rafted during the sum
mer when the water is smooth more
of the time.
Tao new wood camp is ideally lo
! cated iu a thickly timbered belt,
aud 'he haul from the forest to
tUu water is less than one-qiiirter
0' a mile. The timber is being
cut in a radius from which extend
I several skid ways to tlie water

GERMANY MUST KEEP BEL
GIl'M SAYS VOX TBIPITZ
Amsterdam, Nov. 22.—At a meet
ing of the new Fatherland party in
Munich, Admiral von Tirpitz, form
er German minister of marine,
made a violent annexationist sfieecli
Ho said Hie question whether Ger
many ;• England became the pro
tec'or cf Belgium would be the de
cisive issue of the war.
"A mistaken solution of the Bel
gium question would stunt our ex
ports and the reserve capital of
ou~ industry and degrade us to
beiu^ bond slaves of Anglo-Anieri
cauissm," said the admiral. "Our
military security lies in Belgium,
it i3 the ouly way of obtainng com
pensation for our enormous econ
omic losses."
The admiral added that it wag a
mistake to believe the submarine
would prove sufficient protection
against Great Britain as gome ef
fective counter weapon was bound
to be discovered. He declared Ger
many must have Antwerp, that Aus
tria mu»t become the principal pro
tecting power of the mouth off the
Danube and that Germany was in
terested in the settlement of the
Adriatic question.
"Germany's struggle," he added,
"is a terrific battle against the
all-devouring tyranny of Anglo-Am
ericanism."
Owing to the high cost of print
uaper the Seward Gateway recently
reduced from six to four pages
It claims the new size will contain
as much reading matter as the six
oage size because smaller type will
be used.
Laundry Work In Alaika.
In AiusJta and throughout the more
or less frozen north laundresses are
practically unknown. The miners do
their own housekeeping and their own
laundering.
A cylinder about thirty Inches long
and of the same diameter as the head
of the churn is first constructed of
heavy galvanized Iron. One end of this
cylinder is left open, and the head of
the churn is fastened to tlio open end.
The cylinder is then carefully balanced
in the churn, and the churn bearings
are fastened on with rivets and solder
to make them watertight.
Two meshes of galvanized wire of
one inch mesh are then made. One of
them is suspeuded from the movable
head by one quarter inch galvanized
Iron rods and the other fastened to
the cylinder, so thut the two are about
ten inches apart lu the middle of the
cylinder. The clothes are confined be
tween the two screens. The water
surges back and forth through them
until they are clean, or as long as the
churn is in motion. A large plnwheel
attached to the bearings furnished the
turning power.—Popular Mechanics.
