little son John. His condition was
about the same when the last report
came.
Mrs. De Hoff, daughter of Mrs.
Cooper, of Cooper's Cafe, will return
to Seward on one of the next boats.
What gives us a better idea of the
amount of work to be done on the Al
aska Northern railroad is to remem
ber that the estimate of the money to
be spent on renovating it is something
like six hundred thousand dollars. It
is safe to say that not a fifteenth part
of that amount has yet been x
pended on that work alone. When we
remember that a thousand dollars
would keep one man working for onw
1 year we can get an idea of the ex
tent of the improvements to be made.
Taking into account wages alone we
1 might say that six hundred thousand
dollars would enable the employment
of six hundred men constantly for ap
proximately a year without counting
Sundays.
The office formerly occupied by
Stevens and van Pelt is being prepar
ed for the occupation of the Rich
barber shop.
A short visit to A. B. Hall this
afternoon was sufficient to give an im
pression of full satisfaction with the
proofs presented by the graduating
pupils of the thorough training they
have received during the past year
from Mrs. Forgy and her assistants.
Owing to the lateness o fthe hour at
which the exercises took place and the
late arrival of cables a full account
of the proceedings was not possible
today.
