J. Peterson, of Eklutna, is stopping
at the Crescent.
Morris Abrashin has sold his two
story frame residence at G4G F street,
to Z. J. Loussac .
Revelation—from the mud of a week
ago it is now necessary to sprinkle
Fourth avenue.
It is remarkable what a little work
land Alaska sunshine can do in one lit
1 tie week. Look at 4th avenue, a cred
' it to any city.
The S. S. Alaska left Seward at 2
o’clock this afternoon and is due to
reach Anchorage at 1 o’clock tomor
row afternoon.
Stewart Maxwell, of the Anchorage
Supply company, is able to attend to
; business again after being confined
for the past week suffering from a se
vere cold.
Sumner Smith, federal mining in
spector. returned yesterday from a
week's trip up the line where he has
been inspecting and investigating the
i conditions of the coal companies.
Anchoarge is now in the metropoli
tan class and the speed law is being
enforced. A speedy couple were ar
rested yesterday afternoon for exceed
| ing the limit and accordingly fined
$10 and costs by acting Judge Conroy.
The Chamber of Commerce lunch
eon at the Oyster Grotto yesterday
was attended by 30 of Anchorage’s
business men. Sumner Smith who
was billed to address the gathering,
was out of the city and the discus
sions were general and informal.
George Nunan left this morning
with two tons of provisions and min
ing equipment for the N'unan-llarring
ton-Austin property in the Willow
creek district. Mr. Nunan will go by
the way of Matanuska and Wassilla
by the railroad and freight his stuff
from the end of the steel into the
district.
In asking for publicity the officers
of the Parent-Teachers promise faith
fully that never, never again will they
allow May Day to pass unnoticed.
One year may be a long time to wait
and anticipate a pleasure, but then
life is made up of eternal Hope. In
the future the day will be featured
with all the accompaniments even to
the childish, lisping voice as she says,
“I crown you Queen of the May.” And
then too, by another year it may be
possible to find May baskets hanging
on the brass door knocker.
Why wait until Christmas to have a
baseball game? The grounds are in
splendid shape and judging from the
number of players out practicing last
night it should be no trouble to get
two teams to play next Sunday. The
league schedule does not start until
May 20 and this is a long time to
wait, especially under such favorable
weather conditions. Naturally the
game would have no bearing on the
regular schedule but would give the
two teams an opportunity for a good

Mrs. Brown, wife of Judge Fred M. j
Brown of the district court, met with i
I a serious accident in an auto wreck in
! Seattle recently. A broken limb was j
^ among the Injuries sustained. Judge |
1 Brown was hastily called to her bed
I side.
It is conservatively estimated that
1700 people have arrived in Anchorage;
this spring from outside and Alaska
| towns; at least one-half have remained j
in the city; many have gone to work
for the government and mining com
panies; some have taken up home- j
! steads in the vicinity and a very few
have returned.
The executive committee of the
Chamber of Commerce held its regular
semi-monthly meeting last night and i
among other important matters that
came up for discussion were the advis
ability of starting a 12-foot concrete
sidewalk movement for Fourth avo
fiue and praying the proper authori
ties to declare null and void the bind
ing lot forfeiture clause which is work
ing a detriment to advancement and
retarding substantial building activity.
Both measures will be rigorously
pushed by the organization.
May Day passed off quietly in An
chorage. There was no labor demon- j
stration and the red flag of anarchy
( was not in evidence. Labor day, that
comes on the first of May, is not,
i
strictly speaking, on the American ,
calendar or a national day, but is an
international day which found its or- ,
igin in Germany. The day is set
apart for the laboring man and ac
cordingly is celebrated by the labor!
union organizations. In accordance
with the custom the local organization
celebrated by giving a smoker, which
was well attended. The program was i
varied and entertaining with Lena
Morrow Lewis as the principal speak
er.
In the absence of L. V. Ray, who is,
confined to his rooms on account of a
severe cold. Judge Truitt made the
principal taik of the evening last
night at the Sourdough club’s social*1
affair at Robarts’ hall. J. Hore of
Kuskokwim also recited several ap
propriate selections in addition to the '
regular program, which, as a whole, l
was entertaining. The usual dance:
followed the program and light re
freshments and punch were served
during the evening. Out of courtesy ,
to the Pioneers, Igloo No. 15, who
have made all arrangements for a!
dance next Tuesday night at the Labor ,
Temple, the club has cancelled its reg- i
ular Tuesday night event.
The government harbor and dock j
is the scene of great activity these 1
days. In addition to the numerous
small schooners, fishing boats, power
boats and regular line passenger
steamers cutting through the waters,
it is a mere bagatelle for a large.
freighter like the Turret Crown, car-1
rying a 3000-ton cargo, to tie up to;
most any of the docks and unload the |
large locomotives, immense stean: i
shovels and heavy railroad equipment
with theaid of the powerful Browning
cranes. Captain Parks experienced no
trouble at all in the first atteippt to
run a big vessel the size of the Tur
ret Crown up alongside the dock and
discharge cargo. The question is why j
hasn’t it been done before ?

j
The Anchorage Chamber of Com- £
merce is doing all in its power to in- !
terest the Alaska Road Commission to £
visit Anchorage and vicinity in antici- J
pation of relief from the present de- S
plorable conditions of the wagon roads j
in the farming community of Mata- o
|
nuska valley and the Willow creek j
mining district. •!
Every day a complaint is register- jj
ed and the cry goes up for !»elp. Traf- i
fie is practically suspended over the j
roads leading from Matanuska and in !
the vicinity of Wassilla and Knik and jj
just at the critical time of the year j
when the busy season is on. A large 5
freighter and transfer operator on the j
Knik-Willow creek road was in the [
city yesterday and said it was impos- •
sible to move even an ordinary load j
under existing conditions and the onlyjr
help in sight is an abundance of sun-j
shine, a drying wind and a supplica-1
tion to the powers that be at Valdez.

TOWNSITE AUTHORITIES
IMPROVING BALL GROUNDS
When Mayor J. G. Watts gets
through with the local baseball dia
mond, the outfield and the grand stand
the Polo grounds will pass into ob
scurity, the Yale bowl will cease to
flow and the Harvard stadium will
sink into insignificance and further ail
future comparisons will be made to
the Anchorage baseball park. Among
other happy things the city officials
hit upon at the Genesis of the city was
the selection of this park; ideal in lo
cation. perfect in contour and pro bono
publico in purpose.
While the administration is not en
:
titled to any particular credit for do- ■
ing its duty, this characteristic is es
sentially American, it must be admit
ted that the work is being well done.
