The only street cars in Alaska
; are at Skagway where they are
j put into service during the sum
; mer months transporting tourists
I about the city to famous and glam
l orous spots when Klondike and
Alaskan history was in the making.
It is said the conductor has a
hirsute adornment the envy of
• many Oldtimers; some say he
ate a mule once and swallowed the
entire animal but the tail.
On the hood of the street car,
a made-over auto bus. a stuffed
figure of a man waves Old Glory,
over the front bumper is a stuffed
I bear which opens its jaws and
jemits a “woof”—a horn inside—
| and at the same time, through
! battery arrangements the eyes
; light up.
Acessories of every nature may
be seen attached to the street car,
special signs for direction, mirrors.
! bells, klaxons, horns, lights, etc.
One of the scenics in the former!
I haunt of “Soapy” Smith is what
1 the conductor designates as the
largest nugget in the world. He se
i leeted a huge boulder, gilded it.
; drove a great bar into it and at
l tached it to a nearby tree with
; a large chain. Stuffed guards keep
i constant watch over the nugget.
The old gentleman relates truth- ^
1 ful episodes of the city's history
as he (raises the city, the “nugget”
being but a laugh producer and one
that is greatly enjoyed by everyone.
The ride to the end of the line
costs 25 cents, a similar charge be
ing made to bring one back into
the city.

Not only are the quartz possi

( mining camp 180 miles north of

In the opinion of Delegate Jas.
Wickersham. as expressed in a re
cent wire to Fairbanks, any at
tempt to increase the school
building bond issue from $100,000
to $150,000 at this time would re
sult in a deadlock which might
mean no legislation empowering
Fairbanks to issue bonds would
pass Congress at this session.

that way.
That’s why we look for and buy the
mildest and ripest tobaccos we can get.
That’s why we age,them in oiir vvarfe-f,
houses till they’re mellow and sweet.
We believe that even the shredding
of the tobacco.. . and the quidity of the
paper it’s rolled in, have a lot to do
with the even-drawing, mild smoke that
people enjoy in Chesterfields,. {, , *
