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.

WESTWARD IT SPRINES
If Ponce de Leon had known his
onions he would not have gone to
Florida in quest of the Fountain of
Youth, but would have come to Alas
ka, to Moller bay, where bubbling hot
springs invigorate all who bathe in
its waters.
Moller bay lies to the Westward,
easily accessible from Seward, and
should some ambitious Sewardite
conceive the idea of establishing a
resort at that point he would no
doubt shortly be well on the road to
fame andl fortune. The fortunate
ones who have been cured in its
healing waters are loud in their
praise of the soothing effects of
these wonderful waters. It is boiling
hot and in order that one may bathe
holes are dug in the ground and from
the main spring small ditches are
run leading into the*’'individual bath
The patient, when he feels the
temperature mounting too high, picks
up a handfull of mud, plugging up
the ditch, thereby shutting off the
waters. Another ditch leads from an
ice cold frech water spring running
merrily along near by. Thus hot and
cold water is always on tap.
Anyone who is troubled with rheu
matism can be absolutely cured in
three months, declares Frank Osborn,
oldtimer from that country who pass
ed through Seward a few days ago
enroute to the States. There is a
house at the springs, also a bathing
house, and*both are generally in use,
especially during the winter months
when there is little to do, only trap
ping, keep the home fires burning,
and bathing.
As in other vicinities in certain sec
tions of the Bristol bay region, salmon
packing in Herendeen bay was a
complete failure, arrivals from the
, Westward report.
The salmon pack at Port Althorp
was 117,000 cases of tails and halves,
i or approximately 97,500 full cases, as
compared to 153,000 cases of mixed
tails and halved last year.
--
The highest catch of fur last win- —
ter by one trapper in the Heredeen
bay region amounted to $3,000. The j
average trapper in that vicinity aver
aged about $2500.
FLIGHT CALLED OFF
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 30. (JP)—Sid
Grauman, theatrical magnate, has
withdrawn his offer of $30,000 for a
non-stop flight from Los Angeles to
Tokio because of the tragedies link
ed to the recent Dole flight to
Hawaii.
