THE spirit of service which exists in the
operation of The Alaska Railroad, has
made our patrons our friends, and the safe
guarding and transportation of their ship
ments to stations on our line, to their entire
satisfaction is our ambition.
During the month of May the season of
river navigation will augment our rail serv
ice, and freight and passenger travel will
receive the benefit of our experience.
Trains will connect with all sailings on
the Tanana and Yukon Rivers.
Timetables, descriptive literature, etc.,
will be gladly furnished on request.

BOSTON MEN DONATE
11,000 TO MINKS
' SWEEPSTAKES RAGEj
The bigger the men are the better
men are they, is again seen in the
action yesterday of H. Wendell Endi
cott and John Haley, Boston bankers,
who were among the local visitors on
their way to the States following a
successful hunt in the Interior. As an |
appreciation of how much they en- ;
joyed- their Alaska trip and hunt they j
each left a check for $500, a total of j
$1,000, to be used in the general prize
of the Fairbanks dog derby this com
ing winter.
Mr. Endicott is reputed to be one of 1
the principal owners of Sears- Roe
buck, and a director of four Boston
banks.
Mr. Haley, is likewise one of the big
influential business men of Boston.
In commenting on these two distin
quished visitors The Gateway was in
formed that both- were two of the best
sportsmen, regular he-men, that have
visited the Territory this year and a
side from being expert big game hun
ters were fishermen par excellent.
They are sold on Alaska and their
recent trip is but the forerunner of
many more, they hope. They are tak
ing home with them a very fine collec
tion of big game trophies and are cer
tainly proud of them.
EXCELLENT CUSS OF
WORKMEN ON RAILROAD
In the many years Joe Hofman, lo
cal employment agent for the Alaska
Railroad, has been observing the class
of men engaged in work by tfie rail
road, he stated to The Gateway the
other day, that it is doubtful if they
have been surpassed this season.
“The finest bunch of men I ever
! saw,” was the manner in which he ex
pressed himself. The greater majority
that he sent out remained on the job i
all season working away steadily and !
I industriously. He also paid a compli
| ment to the many high school stu- |
I dents who were employed saying the j*
most of these were quite ambitious
and excellent workers holding up their
J ends alongside of grown men.
