THE "GUGGS” FIND
BETTER GROUND
;
Transferring their operations to the
creek bottom instead of on the right
limit bench where they have been
working, the “Guggs,” laymen on the
Wildcat association on Flat creek, had
a small cleanup Thursday and found
that the ground was going better than
$4 to the foot. This outfit which con
sists of Jonas Brewis, Harry Johnson,
Wm. Kelly, A1 Burke, Joe Davis and
T. W. Jackson have been working in
dustriously all summer and getting fair
returns on the bench, but they are now
in shape for some big cleanups.
“My Policies”
San Francisco, Aug. 24—Secretary
Ballinger has joined the ranks of the
progressives. At least he says he be
hoves in progress. Ho says that those
who are opposed to his policies are un
moveable. Conservation to him means
a maximum of efficiency with a mini
mum of waste. But he did not bblieve
that we had any natural resources
which should not be developed at once.
George Hamilton, one of the main
gazooks of the Pioneer Sheet Metal
Works, went to Flat City last Monday
on a business errand for his firm.

BODY OF H. E. VOLCKART
FOUND IN KOYUKUK
According to the last issue of the
Tanana Leader, which by the way will
be its final one, the body of H. E. Vol
ckart, who was drowned in the middle
fork of the Koyukuk river a few miles
below Coldfoot, June 18, 1909, has
been found. The body was recovered
Aug. 2, and although badly decom
posed still retained clothing enough to
identify it.
Volckart was drowned while going
down river on a raft in company with
Heinrik Bismarck. The raft was cap
sized by a sweeper which Bismarck
grabbed and saved himself.
The deceased was a member of the
Eagles at Fairbanks and was well
known in the upper country.
The cleanup of Doc Mading's ground
which was had last Friday evening
advances the record for that ground \
since the riffles disclosed an accumula
tion of $17,000 worth of gold dust.

HE BROUGHT SOME
NICE GREEN STUFF
—
On the Str. Evelyn and later by
launch to this point, J. W. Brewer
brought to the city Thursday afternoon
a ton of perishables which will un
questionably raise the tone of the local
market while the stuff holds out. He
had fresh cabbage, turnips, carrots,
celery and tomatoes which are on in
spection at the Cleveland dock.
A correction is desired concerning
a story printed in this paper last week
wherein the names of Wallace &
Hutchinson wore given as proprietors
of the Pack Train saloon. Mr. Hutch
inson wishes to state that he is not as
sociated with the management of the
Pack Train.
At the offices of Clark Lumber Co.
they have a pocket-book containing
the papers of lone Captain Becker.
Thislbook was found about 6 weeks ago,
but no one has claimed it as yet.

| WILLOW STREET, IDITAROD JIMMY NEASHI, Proprietor. FIRST-CLASS SERVICE j
EVERYONE PRESENT
RAO “OPENERS”
The Northern saloon has been well
opened—in fact, it was opened twice.
The first time they used an ax, But the
next night somebody had one of these
new can-openers and before the bunch
got through trying it, they all had
their sea-legs on.
The Northern is that pleasant relief
station on the corner of First and Wil
low w here they have a brass rail for
your foot and one for your elbow. This
is very convenient unless one gets
mixed in the rails.
The bar fixtures are some kiDd of
dark mahogany or sandal wood or
something, and the mirrors behind are
shiny and ovally—at least they were of
that appearance when last seen. Just
in front of glistening pyramids of
glasses stands a handsome gentleman
t ju white who makes it so pleasant that
you feel indebted to him every time
you take a drink. **
Marsh and Ashland are the proprie
tors and their pronounced popularity
accounts for the big time that was had
at the meeting on the first night. The
seaond meeting was merely an encore
particspated in by a few unsatisfied
souls who thought they would try it
agaih: to see if it felt the same.
Fires Still Raging
Spokane, Aug. 27—The destructive
forest fires that have been devastating
Oregon, Montana, British Columbia
and other sections of the Northwest for
weeks past still continue. Bains in
some parts have retarded the progress
of the flames, but only temporarily. Up
to date the number of those who are
known to have lost their lives totals
160, but as nearly a hundred people are
missing in addition, it is feared the list
of casualties will be greatly augmented
when accurate details are all com-1
pleted.
Too Tough for Lions
Chicago, Aug. 27—Colonel Roosevelt
delivered an address today before the
Newspaper Club in this city. A large
audience was present and applauded
the ex-President vociferously through
out the course of his talk.
The Colonel did not mention politics
in his speech, nor could he be induced
to discuss the subject after leaving the
platform. He occasioned much merri
ment and brought down the house
when at the beginning of his address
he remarked that not a single Hon in
the African wilds had done its duty so
far as he was concerned.
Coal Lands Withdrawn
Beverly, Aug. 27—President Taft
has issued an order withdrawing from
entry 8,265,970 acres of coal lands situ
ated in the state of Idaho. The order
is based on recommendation to that ef
fect from Secretary Ballinger.

New York, Aug. 25—F. Augustus
Heinze, copper magnate, is in a bad
way. He is now being sued for breach
of promise. The lady says that she met
him in 1898, and she has been very
friendly ever since. She knew that
there was “another woman,” but, so
far as she was concerned, it was not a
case of jealosy, but “justice.” Miss
French asserts that she will sue Heinze
if he marries her rival.
