1 had a live hunch today
And so I hunit'd up Herb Tozier and
tried to rent the Alaska Northern
building.
“You mean the whole building?”
says Herb.
“Yep,” says I.
And he says “Nope.”
And I came back to the office.
You set* I figured out that if the rail
way engineering commission came
here they would have to locate in there
because there’s no room anyplace else
in town and I figured out if I could
rent it from Herb I might be able to
sub rent it to the commission for
enough more to buy a lot from “Doc”
Komig for the ditTerence.
It was a good idea.
Hut it didn’t work out. Herb told
me afterward that he would have ren
ted it to me only it would have inter
fered with the solo game that he and
Lane and “Dadey” Youngs hold up
there every afternoon.
So 1 said if that was the reason it
was all right.
You see I had figured out that maybe
the reason be wouldn’t rent it was be
cause it was railway property and the
government would come on them for
taxes if they rented it, and I was real '
sore over that, but an important thing
like a solo game,
„ - ■ , . ■■■—
Well, that’s different.
1 met “Jack" this noon.
And then I asked him if it was, be
cause I was feeling hungry.
And he said sure it’s me, what’s the
matter with you?
And l told him I didn’t know.
And what’o more 1 don’t.

*A Very Monstrou* Great Ship."
In her “Life of James IV.,” Miss L
A. Taylor says that James was untir
ing in Lis efforts toward the realiza
tion of ;i good Scottish fleet. In 1511
the building of the St. Michael, ‘‘a
very monstrous great ship,” was com
pleted. “All the woods in Fife, save
one. had been laid waste to build her,
and material was also imported from
Norway. According to Lindsay, this
wonder ship, which was 210 feet long
and 30 broad, “cumbered ail Scotland
to get her to the sea ” Her sides were
ten feet thick within walls of oak.
and sho cost the king, all told, some
£40.000 He paid her daily visits when
she lay in the roads, often dining and
supping on board, and exhibiting her
to the lords and ladies be brought
with him. Henry VIII. was covetous
of her. but when the singular request
was preferred that James “would
grant Henry the loan of the apple of
his eye. the great St. Michael, the
king’s reply was to the effect that if
he would make peace with France he
might command all his ships.” Sftx
months after their king’s death the
Scottish government sold this desirable
ship to Louis XII.
