The suggestion that patrons of
Swedish night clubs purchase rai
ment before they enter indicates
that the cover charges vie with
those of the U. S.
* * * *•
Now that German scientists have
jarred the atom apart they might
be persuaded to make Europe jar
loose from what they owe us.
At least it is not difficult to agree
that one charge against Jimmy
Walker is a fabrication. It is claim
ed he blushed.
* * * *
Now that an explorer has discov
ered the source of American civil
ization he might begin searching
for where it went.
* * * *
It is quite evident the League of
Nations has deleted ‘Silver
Threads Among the Gold” from
their stein song.
* * * *
Professor Piccard has been up
into the stratosphere to ascertain
if the earth is running down. No
doubt his next trip will be for the
purpose of cranking up.
* * * *
If it comes to the worse the Gov
ernor of Illinois can call upon the
Capone gang to put the coal min
ers on the spot
* * * *■
There is satisfaction in the fact
that by purchasing nighties the
Swedish night club patrons will
have something to go home in.
* * * *
Governor Roosevelt hinted at bad
deals between Mayor Walker and
his brother. According to the evi
dence they appear to have been
rather good.
* * * *
It is considered unparliamentary
to refer to a bloc leader as a block
head.

ALASKA RAILROAD AGAIN
OPEN FOR THRU TRAFFIC
In a telephone message today
from Col. Otto F. Ohlson, general
manager of the Alaska Railroad,
The Gateway is advised that work
of repairing the damaged track in
the flooded areas on the northern
division is progressing favorably
and that the line will be open for
through traffic from the SS Yukon
which arrived in port this after
noon from the South.
The Brill car will make connec
tions, at Anchorage, with the train
leaving Seward this afternoon, and
will arrive at Fairbanks at 10 a. m.
Saturday.
Mail and perishables will also go
forward on today’s train for Fair
banks. The accumulated freight
from previous steamers, which has
been held at Curry, will arrive in
Fairbanks Sunday.
MRS. BOUDREAU VISITOR
Mrs. W. J. Boudreau, wife of the
prominent Anchorage business
man. was an arrival in Seward
Thursday with her son, Billy, who,
it is understood, is to receive treat
ment at the Seward General Hos
pital, Dr. A. D. Haverstock. Mrs
Boudreau’s daughter Louise, who
has been in the States for the last
few months, is returning on the
next arrival of the SS Aleutian and
Mrs. Boudreau may possibly wait in
Seward until then to meet Louise.
GOLD BRICK ON DISPLAY
A $700 gold brick has been plac
ed on display at Ketchikan in one
of the windows of a bank. The gold
was mined from Ketchikan hills.
A caption bears the words “There’s
gold in them thar’ hills,” meaning
Ketchikan’s hills; the brick is a
sample and ample incentive for
many mining men who doubt the
fact.

August 22, all dry cleaning will be
accepted at one-half the regular
price. Seward Steam Laundry.

NOTED EDITOR HERE
George F. Kilroy, the well known
and talented editor of the Alaska
Weekly, arrived today from Seattle
aboard the palatial liner SS Yukon
and is remaining in Seward a few
days before continuing on. It has
been many years since the veteran
editor has been in these parts and,
and that is one reason “I am now
grey-haired,” Editor Kilroy said.
However, he qualified that remark
by saying it is not the newspaper
business which has made him grey,
but his dredging activities many
years ago. Editor Kilroy, with all
due respect to the famous singer,
closely resembles John McCormack.
Mary Jane Amend underwent a
tonsillectomy at the Seward Gen- |
eral Hospital.

Fred W. Woods, laborer with the j
B. P. R„ at Moose Pass, entered j
the hospital Thursday with an in- !

The SS Arthur J. Baldwin, en
route to the Seward peninsula dis
trict, arrived in Ketchikan Wed
nesday evening to take on a
cargo of lumber. The lumber is to
be used in the construction of a
hospital near Nome.
