SEND MAN TO
NEW STRIKE
A movement is on foot among Sew
ard business men to send a man to the
Alfred creek strike to size up the sit
uation. The suggestion is a good one
and should be carried out. Possibly
$500 would cover the expenses, and if
everybody would do bis share, the bur
den wouUl not he great, i lie benefits
to be derived are out of all proportion
to the small su.n necessary to send a
well-equipped, wide-awake man to the
scene, to report on the diggings, etc.
T. J. Potter and Col. Kovelle are
old timers who are somewhat familiar
with the Alfred creek country, the
scene of the recent gold strike. Both
declare it to be a very likelv countty
for minerals. Alfred creek was named
for Alfred Lowell, of the pioneer Low
ell family, who formerly lived in Sew
ard.
Just over the divide from Alfred:
creek, and on what is cal led Bud creek, j
another discovery has been made, but
details concerning it are lacking.
J VV. Hamiltou was at Knik when j
Joe Palmer brought the gold dust to
that camp, and saw it.
It is ex,.voted that when the Samp
son arrives from the west, more news
will be available regarding the strike.
Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Fisher will de-■
part on the steamer Admiral Sampson,
which is due from the west tomorrow,
enroute *to spend the winter in San
Diego. ___

Aeroplane flying
imposes unforeseen
and trying conditions on a
watch. The aeroplane
vibrates constantly. It tilts
at all angles. Often it lands
with a iolt that would ruin
« _ - . • >• K r f i ) r »f?
the balance-wheel of many
a watch.
The Wright Brothers had most
unsatisfactory experiences with all
1 the watches they tried in Europe
and America—until they adopted
the HOWARD.
The HOWARD Watch is
the finest practical timepiece in the
world. Its special hard-tempered steel
balance cannot jolt out of true with the
roughest service. The HOWARD ad
justment is permanent.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD Is fixed
—$40 to $ 150—and a printed price-ticket
attached.
t We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you. or: * •
