lay silent in a beautiful bower of
flowers; of the heartfelt sympathy

Clark Andresen leads by a nar- t
row margin the local golf handi- 1
cap tournament which has been
underway for the past few weeks
but owing to the small number of
score cards returned todate, many
of which have not completed four
games, the tournament wil be con
tinued until at least the 10th of
this month, reports A. D. Balder- !
ston, president of the Seward Golf
Club, who is awarding a cup to the
winner.
Dr. A. D. Haverstock is next to An
dresen. Thirteen have turned in> |
their four or less games but there
are still 10 more players to be
heard from. As the tournament
stands at the present time Warren
Neal and E. F. Jessen are tied for
third place.

purchased the equipment of the
Pioneer Airway company and has
incorporated a company to be
known as the Ketchikan Airways
Corporation, says the Chronicle.
He is arranging for an autogyro
plane for use in landing in small
spaces to take care of hunting
and mining and prospecting par
ties.
A PROSPECTOR’S OPINION OF
DAWSON
It’s mostly a bunch of tumble
down shacks
And the place is over run with
Indian mutts,
And most of the grub comes
packed in a tin,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
The weather is cold, dam cold.
I’ll say,
And the long winter lasts from
October to May,
And most of the shacks have a
roof fallen in.
But it’s a dam good town for
| the shape it’s in.
The people all gossip and knock
! to beat hell,
And must be excused for the
-wild tales they tell,
And to do as they do, is un
pardonable sin,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
The town is divided in two so
cial lots,
Those that are in it and those
that are not;
And knocking each other, raise
a helluva din,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
The only difference in the two
social classes,
One lot are mules and the other
asses,
And the partition between it
is sure very thin,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
The asses are asses—you know
■what I mean,
In a town of any size, they
wouldn’t be seen;
The airs they put on is a joke
and a sin,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
The asses get drunk as they
think on the side,
The mules get drunk, they have
nothing to hide;
Such is the game as it always
has been,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
Between mules and asses just
take your pick,
But either, I’ll say, will give you
a kick,
And about you unite in the wild
tales they spin,
But it’s a dam good town for
the shape it’s in.
