| is expected to attain a speed of 250
'miles an hour. The wheel is 14 feet
high, and the gyroscopes on eacli
[side weigh 500 pounds. The power,
| furnished by a 250-horsepower gaso
line engine, is transmitted by chain
[drive. Professor Christie was for
merly President of Garfield Univer
sity, Wichita, Kansas, and has de
voted his time in recent years to
perfecting his invention.

"It has been a distinctive shock
to us, but a pleasant one,” said Mr. ;
Luce, heavy character man. "There j
is as much metropolitan airs In Ket- \
chikan and Juneau as in any city,
in the States. The people are the,
came kind, as well (iressea, as well j
educated, only more hospitable, in
the greater degree, than in similar
cities in the states Your hotels.]
your stores, your theatres and your]
homes, are the sante as elsewhere.
The auto is here and your highways
are a positive delight with the sur-i
rounding scenery which is grand.” j
The other members of the com-!
pany, those who have never before I
been to the great northlnnd, echoed]
Mr. Luce's statements. The women ;
of I ho company were especially at-j
tracted by the display windows of,
the millinery and dry goods stores.
Saturday night, at the Oastineau!

watched tlie fair sex of this city
equally as they were watched.
"AH_ were just ilk© anywhere
