NEWS NOTES
D. H. Moss, vice-president of the
First National Bank of Seattle,
writes to Sydney Anderson that he
and a party of friends will visit Sew
ard on the Farragut.
A. D. Estes has come to the city
after an absence of several months
and will go back to Mile 52 immedi
ately to continue his work as engineer
in charge of the work in that neigh
borhood.
Chairman W. C. Edes of the Engi
neering Commission went to Anchor
age this morning on the Evans to dis
cuss matters with Commissioner
Mears before going to the interior.
Attorney Cotton of the Alaskan
Engineering Commission is expected
to arrive soon in Seward.
The habeas corpus application in the
case of Mrs. Dunlap of Anchorage has
not yet been decided but the decision
may come from Judge Drown today.
Mrs. Dunlap was married here in
Seward to Al. Lowell who was later
drowned in Kenai lake. She was mar
ried to Dunlap afterwards and has
property in Seattle.
Quite a little trouble is looked for
soon over at Anchorage in relation to
the orders for the removal of the
restricted district. The difficulty is
expected to come because of improve
ments made by the occupants there at
the demand of the authorities. The
occupants say they spent thousands of
dollars in the work.
Alvah Fames, chief of the railway
mail service in this division, came on
the Evans on business and is staying
over until the boat returns from the
west.
N. B. Solner, the Seattle banker and
mine owner of Crow creek, passed by
on the Evans this morning. He is ac
companied by Mrs. Solner.
Bishop Rowe of the Episcopal
church of Alaska was a passenger
westward on the. Evans this morning.
Mrs. Rowe accompanied him. In ad
dition to his church work the popular
bishop takes a large part in public
questions relating to the territory.
Mayor Myers and T. W. Hawkins
went down to the fox island ami to
Sunny Bay yesterday in the former’s
launch. At the creek at Sunny Bay
they found salmon jumping over each
other. The salmon run has just
start ed.
James McCoy is out on bail of $4.
000 waiting the hearing of his appeal
which will probably not come tor
three years. The judge who tried the
case and who passed through Seward
j some days ago is quoted as saying
that the court of appeals will surely
free McCoy. His conviction is believ
ed to be due to the fact that the case
was tried by a jury of farmers who
suspect all mining deals.
Rev. J. K. Ounstan of the Yildez
Congregational church is a passenger
!on the K.vans taking a vacation trip..
George \V. Sherwood and Harry
' Baldorston went out the line for a
week’s fishing today.
A practise game of ball was played
vesterdav by two local teams but the
result was ‘teen to one, or something
like that.

TV/TADE of indestructible Asbestos (Rock) Fibre ■

W proofer, J-M Asbestos Ready Roofing is literally a
ra pliable stone. Fire, acids, gases, chemical fumes, fl
heat or cold have no effect upon it. It is therefore
practically indestructible. p
And because of its stone nature, J-M Asbestos
^ Rooting never needs painting or graveling. Its first I
cost is its only cost. Asbestos being a non-conductor

’j in winter and cool in summer. j
Think what a protect ion J-M Asbestos Roofing wou 1 d

and repair bills! It is adapted for any building anywhere.
