(By Babe Hayes)
Jos. Christopherson and wife of
Virginia, Minnesota, visited Alaska
in 1928. Commenting on their trip
they say, among other things:
“Well, Babe, keep up the good
work and we will not forget the
good that is past and have high
hopes for the future; it’s a great
thing to be alive. And to tell you
the honest truth, we have never
gotten such a thrill and lasting
good pleasure as our trip up to
you people in the great and won
derful North,”
* * * *
Sir John Mullins, a former vice
president of the Bank of England,
'was in Alaska on a hunting trip
two years ago. A short time after
him in which he says, among
hi min which he says, among
other things:
“It is quite wonderful for you
to take such an interest in the
visitors to your country and I am
sure the travellers appreciate very
much, indeed, your kindness and
attention. Alaska is indeed a
wonderful and unique country and
I hope to be back again some day
and to have the pleasure of meet
ing you once more.”

AN UNUSUAL MOON
A magnificent and most un
usual heavenly splendor was;
glimpsed last evening far over- 1
head and to the south of Resur- ;
rection Bay. The moon, hidden
behind a mass of dark clouds, ap
pearfed in the shape of a slit about j
15 feet long and two feet high. j
By stretching one’s imagination it j
seemed as if some mansion high I
in the mountains was ablaze.
The Ketchikan Chronicle recent
ly moved into a new home—in the
Commercial Building — according |
to an announcement appearing in ;
that publication.

The builder of the bridge across
the Columbia river at Longview,
(Wash., and of the recent $4,500,
1000 St. John’s bridge at Portland,
Ore., John H. Pomeroy, was in
Ketchikan recently. He is on his
annual trip to look after some
mining property on the Clearwater
river, a tributary of the Stikine
river, says the Ketchikan Chron
icle.
He is accompanied by his son,
iJohn Nelson Pomeroy, who is mak
ing his first trip to Alaska.
Mr. Pomeroy is interested in five
claims and had blocked out 1.500,
0D0 yards of dredging ground which
he says drilling indicates will run
from 35 cents to $1.60 to the yard.
He has built a dredge on the
ground which has a capacity of
1800 yards per day and is powered
with a 150 horsepower Diesel en
gine.
It will be the first dredge to
bperate in that part of the coun
try and he said it was expected
to begin operations by Septem
ber 15.
The Conway building at Anchor
age had a close call recently when
an overheated stove in an apart
ment on the second floor set fire
