Another Sale.
A sale was made yesterday of
the copper property hoV-nging to
George Cantwell and Gi ;. Cameron
and known as the Fissure group
on Knights island, for $40,000.
This property consisting of four
claimB was located last September
and is situated on Drier bay, ad-<
joining the property of the Knights
Island Consolidated Co. The Bale
was made by A. W. Tibbitts and
Grant Chase and the first news the
owners had of the deal, was when
they received word that the money
had been placed to their credit in
the bank. It is not known here
who were the purchasers.
Tri-Weekly S1age 8ervice.
Ed. S. Orr & Co., will inaugur
ate a tri-weekly stage service, Feb.
10 between here and Fairbanks.
Stages will leave Mondays, Thurs
days and Saturdays of each week
hereafter until the close of the
traveling season, and a regular
trail schedule, and good service
wilj be furnished. Baggage and
express carried on each stage.
The possibility of the division
bill passing at this session of Con
gress has caused the candidates for
the position of judge here to get
busy fixing their fences. A well
known resident of Valdez was in
the race for a time, but it is now
reported that he has abandoned
the idea. It appears that Tom
Lyons, of Juneau, is the candidate
whom the railroad and mining in
terests have agreed to support.
He is being supported by Jarvis
and other representatives of the
cannery and railroad interests.
Whether this combination is strong
enough to carry their point is an
open question, but it is said that
in the event of the division bill
passing they will make a strong
tight for Lyons.

Judge Wick$rsham Coming.
An Orr Co. stage left Fairbanks
Monday morning with five passen
gers for here, among whom were
Judge Wickersham and wife. It
is not positively known if the rest
of the court officials are with him,
but it is thought that Marshall
Perry, District Attorney Harlan
and Clerk Stiers are the other
three.
Dan Grennig, of the Kotsina
Alaska Copper Co., is preparing to
leave for the interior with his out
fit. The summer will be devoted
to doing development work on the
property, which consists of a large
numbei of claims some of which
were originally located by Grennig.
The company refused an offer to
bond the property last summer, in
tending todevelop it themselves.
The electric lights were turned
on last night in part of the busi
ness section of town and as a con
sequence there was universal re
joicing. Today arrangements will
be made to add 200 more lights,
which will be all that can be
handled until the arrival of the
armature for the old dynamo,
when the plant will be in shape to
carry as many lights as the town
can possibly use.
