O. Hulterberg, of Kan J one, Cal., and the action la directed aguln.t P. H. An (ltT.on, of Chicago, ; another former mhtelonary: Dr. C. W. Johrwon, also of Chicago, arid the White Star Company, In which a number of Chteagoane are interested. , ' The dispute reaches bock to the flrat diacovery of gold Mn Alanka and hlngee vti the. point whether a mlwlonary eent Into the northern wilds to make con vert for his church wn likewise act ing for hi. church when he ataked out a number of mining claim. Thew claims have been developed Into highly profitable gold mines out of which sev eral men have made fortunes. Miss Dora Adams, an Eskimo convert, and Constantino Aparosookl, aim an Eski mo, are wHtietwes for the church or ganization. Ex-Judge Charles Johnson, of Nome, Is another witness from Al aska. Thus far nearly 20 persona have testified. The agreement of the liti gants to argue the case before a board of arbitration was due to their dealre to avoid the notoriety attendant on a court bearing. The board consists of Hiram T. Gilbert. A- M. Pence and D. F. Lane, and the finding of tSk arbitra tors Is to be final. The church society la repreaented by ex-Judge M. Boder- berg, , of , San Franctoco; Frank J. Qulnn, of Peoria, 111., and H. F. Wil liams, of Chicago. The defer Is rep resented by Judge Chytraus, ofthe Cook county courts. ! In 1903, Mr. Hultberger was engaged by the Swedish Evangelical Mission Covenant to go to Cape Nome as mls nlonnry for the society. He estnbiltthed a achool at Oolovln boy, where he re mained until 1898, when falling health forced him to "return to the United Sta'es for a year. His anHl.tant at Golovln bay was P. H. Anderson. Just before returning Mr. Hultberger found a pocket of gold and now claims to be the original discoverer of the Nome gold region. He located his claim and left It In the care of Mr. Anderson with the understanding, he saya, that it was to be staked out and held in trust for the church society. Mr. Hultberger did not return to Alaska until 1899. He found that during Ms absence Mr. An derson, with the aid of Gabriel Trice, a practical miner, hod staked out nine claims adjoining the original "Discov ery" claim. These claims were, held In the names of various uidlvlduals. The last two were known as No. 8 and No. 9. It is this claim, No. 9, that the so ciety seeks to recover. Claim No., 8 was first held by Con atantlne Aparosookl, while No, 9 was In the name of Gabriel Adams, another if llllW Economy Brand Evaporated Cream 4. bears the above cap label.

TRANSPORTATION EXHIBIT MAKES PALACE OF WONDER Transportation exhibit, at the Louis iana Purchase exposition are being in stalled In thre separate places, First, within the walls of tha palace In the main picture that bears tjie name of this classification f second, in an out door apac adjacent to this building; third, on the aerial concourse, which Is situated In the west of the grounds. Fifteen and six-tenths acres of ground ore covered by the Palace of Transportation, which is 1,200 feet long by 625 feet wide. Within the walls are five miles of railroad tracks, on which exhibits are being brought in on their own wheels. On terraces without are i.600 ad ditional feet of track, maintained for the supplemental display. The baloon concourse is 1,200 feet long by 600 feet wide'. It Is protected on two sides by dormitories of Wash ington university, which with otjier college buildings have become a part of the fair, and on the third side by a temporary wind-brake. , Thus the aer ial craft will be protected untll w-ell tip on their voyages. At the eastern end of the concourse are baloon stables, where repairs can be made and where gas will be supplied. From all over the earth exhibits are coming for this Interesting: display and they Include everything known In the world of transportation from the baby push-cart to the mogul locomotive; from the submarine to the Santos-Du-mont of latest design. Of the railroads the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore and Ohio will make the moat elaborate displays and they will be distinctly different. That of the former company Is in the nature of a giant test of power as applied to trans, portatlon today, that of the latter Is historical in character. While each display appeals to the visitor, they do so In a different manner, th Pennsyl vania exhibit attracting the practical mid and the Baltimore and Ohio the lover of romance. ; ; For the first time in the history of the world a locomotlme testing labor atory will be thrown open to all comers. Such Is the exhibit made by the Pen nsylvania company. In this depart ment It will be possible to measure to a pound the pulling power of any Iron hors of the rails, while under full head of steam. The mechanism that makes this possible reminds one of the char iot race In Ben Hur, where the ve hicles are apparently moving forward but In fact are stationary. In the test ing laboratory the locomotive Is run upon a system of cog wheels which move In opposite direction to the- driv ers,, and the lever is then gradually pul led open, even as it Is when a train Is Wing started. Then faster and faster move the cogs beneath, until their speed ia the representation of a cer tain number of thousand tons and then the true test begins, for the re sidual power of the locomotive is felt upon steei cables that connect with a dynamometer which has a limit of 8, 500 pounds. An Illustration of the method Is that of a man using a test ing machine. A certain resistance must be overcome before the pointer commences to swing around the dial; so In the case of the locomotive, the resistance of the cog wheel must be overcome before there Is a strain on the dynamometer. Tests in this laboratory may be made by any locomotive builders in the world and rules have been framed so that all will have equal conditions. Thus the grade of coal must be the same and the water of a prescribed quality. The results of these testa will be published In book form by the Pennsyl vania railroad and the work will prob ably become a classic In the literature pertaining to transportation. , ! Mark the contrast In the Baltimore and Ohio exhibit, which breathes of the entire life of raidroad transportation. There for Instance is the "Rocket," the first locomotive to run on tracks in the United States, and which had Steven son, its inventor, as engineer. . Titer, also Is the "Pioneer," the first locomo tive to run out of Chicago, which was built in the east and had to be trans ported to the city on the lakeside by boat. This was in 1849. Think of the wonder that must have been caused by the little machine, which today looks so cruder It was more of a marvel than to the present feneration would be the sight of an airship carrying pas sengers among the clouds. ' In addition to the "Rocket" and the "Pioneer", are locomotives representing the progress made In building during every successive year. You see the type of short boiler and spreading smokestack, which are familiar sights in prints made before he civil war, and then the longer boiler and still more bulging stack that was used on all roads during that period, A locomo tive punctured with bullet holes tells Its own. story of a wild run through lines of hostile infantry; while others have memories of great floods and sub mersion clinging to them. Gradually the iron horse has grown In size, the wheels In height and the stack comes to the short neck now to use. , The first section of this interesting exhibit came rr on 17 gonlola cars. What a eight it must have been to railroad men on the lines from Bal would send it ahead at the speed of It miles an hour, and seeming ready to dasb at an Instant through the great building, but held In one spot by a sys tem of counter-acting wheels beneath. And while this locomotive Is turning s on the table an electric bearllght flashes around the circle bringing out every thing touched with startling brilliancy. ' Although the railroad exhibits will be the most impressive, yet the thousands of other displays promise to create equal interests. In this space are hobby cut ters and sleighs; in that are seen sedaa chairs. ; There is a section devoted to automates and you can study the growth of this modern vehicle of pleas ure and corr.merce from .the primitive steam road engine to the storage bat-' tery car of the tourist, , Bicycles stand In long rows and with them the motor cycle. Brakes, tally-hos and' all other horse vehicles used for pleasure and profit are represented by the best of the kind. ' ,, Transportation of the dead Is exemp lified by the side of transportation for the Hying, In cars and hearses. War transportation Is shown as well as peace. You see a complete armored train with wicked looking gun muaaels peering from silts cut to the steel pro tection. You inspect a little ship that dives, then crawls upon the bed of the sea, to rise again under the hull of .a enemy and fasten a torpedo to her side. tlmore to St. Louis, as they witnessed j Marine engines are In operation and object lessons from pages of the past you learn how power Is conveyed to the being moved toward the World's Fair city. , In like manner is told the history of street car building. You see the little "dinky" vehicle with two steps in the rear, a narrow aisle and side seats, and extending the length of the Interior a slot of metal, down which your nickle slid to the driver, who tn those days served as conductor also. Imagination pictures the straw that once covered the floor ond hi winter aided the feet of passengers to retain their warmth, and imagination also pictures the pa tient, albeit sleepy mules that tugged you along for miles ' So, a step further, the first grip car is shown. What an advance was the cable and bow It revolutionized urban tran sit! A little further you view the first trolley car,' then others that show the progress, until finally the triumph of the builders of today show in the cosy parlor car with rattan easy chairs and the trolly sleeping car that has been brought into use in Massachusetts and Ohio. , To hark back to railroads again you are shown not only the means of actual trasportation but all the accessories. Actual demonstration Is made of the latest safety 'appliances. Semaphore signals are on exhibition and also sys tems of turning switches by compres sed air and by ' electricity. You .see safety locks and towers used by section guards. The beet rail of the present day are exhibited and the latest man ner of stringing ties. In one place Is a model ticket office, where world's fair visitors may purchase transportation to any part of the world.' : On a side track is a modern equipped train. You can enter and pass through model cars, model express cars, model day coaches, model Pullman, ad model buffet and dining cars. V In no department of the exposition is the keynote, "revealment of "processes" used with betttr effect than in that of transportation. There is life and mo tion everywhere. But of all the mov- j Ing displays the most attractive and j startling is the central picture. Mount- j ed on an eleveated turn-table is the I largest locomotive ever manufactured. ! With engineer and fireman In the cab this creature of brightly polished steel Is a thing alive, pistons flashing in and aut of cylinders drive wheels and pilot propeller, of the liner, the side wheels of lake craft and the stern wheels of rives boats. In like manner is exhibited the new force in water propulsion, the tur bine screw. . . .,, Now for a visit to the western" part of the world's fair grounds, where the baloon and air ship concourse Is lo cated. " Althugh a special committee wai sj polnted to arrange the prizes for ex hibitors in the Twentieth century dis play, ad to formulate rules for govern ing contests, the executive work in con nection with the installing of machines and tht- planing of the different events fell to the department of trasportation. The grand wise In the air ship con test, which Is open to any aeronaut wha proves that he has sailed one mile ov er a straightway course, , Is J100.000. Over two score entries for this event are matters of record but who will par ticipate and what manner of machines they will use are spbjects that have not yet been made public, it being one of the conditions of the exposltln that such information will -be with-held un til the gates are open. ' The prize of this grand air tourament will go to the person who makes the besVtime over an L-ehaped course fif teen miles long. He will be given as mt-ny trials an he may desire, providing of course that any one competitor does not Interfere ' With the work of the omers. , , Prizes are offered lor aeroplanes that mount in the face of the wind and pro ceed a certain distance before touching earth again, and also prizes for the beat motor to be used in an airshlp, Several prizes are offered halloonlsts. One for the aerial traveler who lands nearest to Washington's monument. starting from St Louis, another for the longest voyage made in any diretlon, startlng from the World's Fair grounds. Kite flyers also have an opportunity to win substantial sums of money, awards being offered for the kites that attain the greatest height with the, shortest string and for those that reach the greatest altitude with; any amount nf trtn These latter will be made the vehicle of interesting observations with Instruments In the upper regions. Thus transportation, in all Its rami fications, at tlie Louisiana , Purchase exposition, -, will bring into evidence creatures of man that move upon the heels revolving at a rate which, wer j earth, beneath the surface and above the locomotive on a straightway track the surface. Claude HWetmore. Eskimo, now dead, who was Apara sookl's partner. On the plea that the Eskimos could not lawfully hold title, It Is alleged that Mr. Anderson induced them to give up possession and the property was then deeded over to Mr. Price. Claim' No.' 9 was sold to Mr. Anderson for 820, It is said. Later Mr. Anderson took Into part nership Dr. Johnson, of 'Chicago, who was acting physician for the Swedish Mission Society. In 1902 they formed the White Star Mining Company of California. Last May the White Star Mining Company of Illinois was organ ized In Chicago. It Is charged by President C. A. BJork of the Swedish missions, that the sole object of the forming of these two corporations, one selling out to the other, wasMo cloud the title to the property and thus prevent the society from getting relief at law. Since 1899, It Is declared, Mr. Ander son has taken out about $480,000 In gold. Claim No. 8, It Is said, has netted Mr. Price something like I800.00P. 1 All told, the amount taken from these two claims alone aggregates nearly 11.300, 000 and the representatives of the Swedish missloiv claim they can prove that a greater sum has been realized. Report ' Not Confirmed. Tokio, March 8. The report of the naval attack upon Vladivostock Is not confirmed officially, although the navy department admits that the attack was planned. A report is expected from the fleet commander before long. "I owe-, my whole life to Burdock Blood Bitters. Scrofulous sores covered my body. I seemed beyond cure. B. B.
