NOVEMBER SO, 1919. lira v HAVE IRON VITALITY PLAYING V I 1 11A Long Hikes to Deal Justice Requires Great Exertion. lUimi AHU VSiT-TT-J 3EE ALL WEEK LIBERTY CORNERJ LARGE DISTRICT SERVED ALASKA JUDGE US r Thousands of Miles ot Travel Each Year Too Much for Weakling. Bunnell Sleets Emergencies. SEWARD, Alaska. Nov. 16. (Spe cial Correspondence.) They always appoint a young man as United States district Judge for the fourth district of Alaska, and a young man of un usual vigor, for the reason that his. jurisdiction extends from the 60th I parallel to the north pole, and in volves a good many thousands of miles of travel each year that a weak ling could not endure. Judge C. E. Bunnell, Incumbent, qualifies fully for the Job, as evidenced by the circum stance that he recently broke his own previous record by walking 125 miles in three days in order to be at Valdez to open court on time, where he had been called owing to the Illness of Judge F. M. Brown of the third division. Judge Bunnell is one of the fore most walkers, or "mushers," in Alas kan term, and also ranks high as a boatman. Last summer Judge Bun nell, with one companion, poled a boat for more than 200 miles up one of the tributaries of the Yukon rfver. The judge is also one of the best informed men living on matters per taining to northern and interior Alas ka, having visited every settlement in the fourth division and traveled every trail and all the navigable water courses in that vast region. His ex periences have extended beyond Judi cial functions to escapes from quick sand, 80-below weather and other characteristically Alaskan incidents, not to mention a creditable marathon to escape a polar bear enraged at the intrusion of justice and its agencies into his previously unbroken soli tudes. Altogether, the life of a fourth di vision United States judge is just one thing after another, but principally it requires an iron constitution and a head capable of packing about a va rious assortment of laws usable with out resort to reference books travel ing light being a prerequisite to trav eling at all in much of the fourth division. The silver lining to the high cost of living cloud has appeared unex pectedly to people in the interior, where caribou have appeared recently in almost unprecedented numbers. The result is that everybody in that sec tion Is reported to be well supplied with meat for the winter. Rumors of the great depletion of the herds in late years seem to be disproved by the vast numbers observed during the migration of this season. A small herd of caribou is reported on Kenai penin sula. Reports are beginning to drift in of men losing their lives in various parts of the territory from exposure to the elements. Every year a num ber of Alaskans freeze or get lost in the blizzards and snow storms and eventually die from starvation or in cidental hardships. Just the other day while John UeLay and Julius Larson were searching for Emil Olsen, who had lost his life, they came upon a man named Irvine, who was just at the point of death and unable to help himself. He was taken to Wiseman and will recover. Old-timers, who are most familiar with the eccentricities of Alaska weather, are almost invariably the victims. In almost every instance where a man is lost through the rigors of the climate he could have been saved by reasonable precautions. Great numbers go forth into the wilds with little food and no adequate pro vision for sudden severe drops in tem perature, and it is amazing that the losses are not greater. A visitor from the states will wait for days and even weeks before he takes a trail in a blizzard, actual or impending; but the old-timer 'reckons" he can make it to such or such a point and frequently sallies forth while temperatures are anywhere from 30 to 50 degrees be low zero, or when snow storms are raging so that he cannot see a stone's throw ahead. This constant flirting with death is difficult to understand. A report, not confirmed, but bear ing evidence of truth, comes from Point Barrow of the discovery in that region of a buried Eskimo village, covered up by some catastrophe in ages long past. It is said that the discovery was made by W". B. "Van Valen, who has been in northern and central Alaska for two years collect ing specimens for the museum of the University of Pennsylvania. Eighty bodies were found in the lost village, it is said, solidly frozen, of course. vvhich show peculiar cranial forma tions and other characteristics en tirely dissimilar to any living Eski mos. The presence of the buried vil lage was entirely unknown to the na tives in the Point Barrow district. The details are too minute and plausible to be an invention in all particulars, and doubtless further information will soon be forthcoming based on obser vations and conclusions fcy scientists of the bit? Pennsylvania school. Mr. Van Valen has already sent a number of skulls and other parts of the dis covered bodies to the east.

CHRIST'S TEACHINGS 'HID urged Its application to present-day industrial moves. The Bible reference reads: "Moreover, if thy brother shall tres pass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother." Dr. McDowell urged the church members and pastors to get in touch with outstanding groups of their com munities, such as employers and em ployes, boards of education and teach ers, political. recreational, press. health, official, social and disturbing groups, learn their points of view and side with them when right. I believe," he said, "that eventual ly there will be industrial courts, sim ilar to city, state and federal courts, in which labor disputes can be solved. These courts would be graded as are the present local courts with the right of appeal." Dr. McDowell called attention to the following social creed adopted by the Presbyterian general assembly In 1910: "Acknowledgment of the obliga tions of wealth; application of Chris tian principles to the conduct of in dustrial organizations: more eauita ble distribution of wealth; abatement of poverty; abolition of child labor; regulation of the conditions of the in dustrial occupation of woben; release of every worker from work one day in seven; conciliation in Industrial dis putes and development of a Christian spirit in the attitude of society to ward offenders against the law."
