Meeting Will be Held Tuesday
Evening to Reorganize
Church.
Rev. Pried, of the Congrega
tional Church, plans to make use
of the church library in connec
tion with his work during the
coining winter, when people have
time to read during the long
nights. He has discovered that
there are about five hundred vol
umes in the library and will make
their use available to readers.
The library has been well se
lected and embraces the works of
many of the noted authors. The
reader can find his favoi'ite
whether it be classical, fiction or
educational. Mr. Price will act
as librarian and will arrange
Hours when (hose desiring books
may obtain them. The (books
will, however, have to be num
bered and listed and this will oc
cupy his attention, during spare
hours for the next webk.
Rev. Price requests all mem
bers of the Congregational
church to meet at the church on
Tuesday evening at 7:30 o’clock
■for the (purpose of effecting a
complete reorganization of the
church and election of officers.
Among other matters which
will be discussed will be the es
tablishment of a young men’s
athletic, association.
Stampeder Says McCarthy Trail
Has All Others Beaten to
Frazzle.
Jerry Learning, who recently
^arrived in Juneau from McCarthy
on the Cliisana trail says that en
r ute to the alleged diggings is
not a pleasure boulevard. After
losing a horse in the quagmires
near (ilacier creek lie turned
back. lie has been in every
camp from Ketchikan to Point.
Harrow, including Dawson and
Nome and was over the awful
slough of '97 between Skagway
and Bennett. It is his belief that
the trail from McCarthy has them
all beaten to a frazzle.
The prospects so far reported
on the Chisana including the
working claims Mr. Learning says
are almost identical with the
Squirrel river diggings in the Ko
liurk section above Seward penin
sula. The only pay that has been
found on Squirrel river was in
the one spot and it, was good.
But there were only two or three
claims that produced anything.

second-hand furniture,' stoves,
