BUIIU VISITED LOCIL
MORGUE DURING NIGHT
Some burglar received an awful
♦shock last night when, after break
ing into a local establishment, he
found himself in the morgue.
P. C. McMullen, proprietor of the
Seward mortuary, reported today
the back door of the undertaking
parlor had been broken in during
the night but, as far as a close
check up revealed, not a casket is
missing; nor anything else.
It can be assumed the ghoul did
not linger long, especially so if he
were inclined to believing in ghosts
which spirits might have clasped
him in their embrace.
Captain Hienie Berger, m aster
and owner of the MS Discoverer,
arrived in port today from Cooki
Inlet and Anchorage. He was due j
to leave on the return voyage at
an early hour this afternoon.
Roadmaster Johnson of the Alas
ka Railroad, in charge of the Cur
ry-Seward division, was an over
night business visitor in the city.
Leo Douglas, who last week flew
to Cooper’s Landing from Anchor
age with Pilot Call of the McGee
Airways, came into town Tuesday
by motor car from Lake Kenai. He
drifted back to the lake last night.
Ml IS SECURED
BEST IN DISTRICT
Three residents of Wasilla re-,
c e n 11 y renewed subscriptions to
the Seward Weekly Gateway, and
gave as their reason the fact that
each and every one considered it
the best paper in the district.
The depression seems to have af
fected some of their neighbors,
however, in that frequently the
paper is “swiped” from the mail
box so that they can keep posted
gratis on daily events by reading
the purloined issues and also by
listening in on other neighbors’
radios!
It was also stated that there was
an over-supply of labor at Wasil
la.
The Dempsey Mining Company at
Alma, Colo., is getting ready to
start operations.

CLEW IS III SIGHT
MOOSE PUSS OPERITOnS
For three years past two pros- ;
pectors ih the Moose Pass district j
have carried on without faltering.
During that period they have
worked hard and denied themselves
many of the Common pleasures.
It now appears that success will
award the untiring efforts of Os
car Plowman and Bud Tolson for
recent reports say the boys are do
ing exceptionally well on their j
claims located near Mile 19.
Last year they completed a thor
ough prospect of the ground and
now have it opened up and indi- ]
cations are, their friends say, they 1
will have a rich cleanup.
