Collins, Allison and Farron, of Hope,
have been busy all winter freighting
an h.vdaullc plant to their ground on
the upper end of Resurrection creek
and are, even now, planning on spend
ing next winter on the outside spend
ing the money they are contemplating
on taking out this coming summer.
The property in question was pros
pected last summer and showed up so
well that the owners decided to put a
plant on it as soon as possible and at
this time the freighting ts practically
completed and the owners will have
the plant installed by spring and ready
for operation as soon as the water be
gins to run. There is an abundance of
good placer ground in the Hope dis
trict that will be making good money
for the fortunate owners within the
next few years. And it is only a ques
tion of time until there will be at least
a dozen fair sized hydraulic plants
washing out dust every summer.
Mrs. J. J. Finnegan chaperoned a
delightful little dancing party at the
Hotel Patton. Present were the
Misses Hickey, Hamraerstein, White,
Root, Culbertson, Peterson, and
Messers Atkinson, Chadwick, Berger,
Meherin, Cotter, Hickey, Cotter,
Youngs and Anderson. Dainty refresh
ments were served and dancing con
tinued until midnight.
Joe Richards, of Hope, has closed a
deal whereby he will build and operate
a roadhouse near Squentna Crossing
above Susitna Station and incidently
take a one hundred mile relay of the
Seward-Iditarod mail next winter when
the Revell mail contract goes into ef
fect. Mr. Richards will leave early in
the summer and put up his buildings
and spend the fall in getting up sup
plies in preparation for a busy winter.
He will be accompanied by Julius
Schalk of Hope, who will be a partner
with him in the business.
Charles Nutter, who has been em
ployed at the Skeen-Lechner property
on Falls creek, arrived in Seward last
night and will depart for the outside
on the Northwestern.

/|ANE of our customers gave a business
vll7 house a check for $12.48 recently.
The business man, being in a hurry to
wait on another man, neglected to mark
his account paid, and our customer was
very much surprised to receive a dun for
$12.48 a short time later.

to him cancelled and was a legal receipt.
He showed it to the business man, who
found that he had banked a check for $12.

have to pay the bill twice.
