Would Like To Start Again “I would like to start all ov again and make the trip just we did.

They had an earthquake the army bombers arrived, the, Los Angeles Chamber of Commer: tour, and Mrs. Davis and I reache here all at the same time,” Miss Reep said Stopped at Park They left Anchorage for Fair- banks on the Alaska Railroad stop- ping over for a day at Mt. Mc- Kinley Park as the guests of James L. Galen, president of the McKinley Park Transportation Company. A concert was given there which was attended by everyone in the cark, including more than thirty ‘ourists, and all residents for miles around. Leaving Fairbanks they re- turned to the coast by the Rich- ardson Highway and Copper River Railroad to Cordova whére they boarded the Yukon southbound. The trip over the highway was made exciting by the floods which had washed* out bridges and made it necessary to ford them as best one could. Miss Reep expects to remain in Juneau only a few days when she will leave for Petersburg..and Ketchikan, in each of which places she will give a concert. It is pos- sible that she will return to Ju- neau before leaving permanently for the south, During the coming winter Miss Reep plans to continue her musical studies in Milan, Italy, to be away for an indefinite length of time. However, she will return to Alas- ka. “I love the country and the people who bave been most kind to me,” the charming singer said. SALMON FISHING ON YUKON RIVER REAL BOON TO RESIDENTS Recent arrivals from the lower south mouths of the Yukon River repert that the opening of that ctream to limited commercial fish- ing for salmon has been a great boon to residents there All tierces on hand for mild-cure salmon were filled early, and had it not been for the transportation tie-up occasioned by the longshore- men’s strike, which held up de- livery of tierces until too late in the season, the maximum pack al- lowed by the Government agree- ment would have been reached. ‘Those engaged in mild-curing of salmon on the Lower Yukon in- cluded Waechter Brothers and Com- pany; Frank Kern, who went south on the last trip of the Yukon o dispose of this season’s pack and to arrange for shipment of supplies for next season now; the Northern Commercial Company and several smaller cperators. Reports would indicate that the quality of the kings packed this year on the Yukon would demand top market price for mild-cure fish. ———— cently for 19 Guernsey dalry cat- tle at a public sale in Salisbury, N.C The sum of $4,770 was paid re- THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE MUI\DAY.

WEATHER BUREAU SAYS RAINY DA COME IN CYCL WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. — Al= though climates of various sections of the world have undergone radi- cal changes in past ages, officials of the weather bureau say there is no indication that present cli- mate is changing despite Lhis summer’s drought. The existing conditions of drought are only what may be expected to recur at intervals of 30 or 40 years, according to past wediher records for the nothwest, asserts J. B. Kincer, chief of the divis- ion of climatology. The 10-year period ending with 1864 and that ending with 1894 also were heavily deficient in - fall, past records Show, 11 midway between these perigds were several successive years of comparatively abundant moisture.
