IF YOU KILL A DUCK
LOOK AT HIS HIND LEG
The following request comes from
the office of information United
States Department of Agriculteure,
D. C.:
“If you kill or capture a wild duck
bearing an aluminum band around
one leg, having a number on one side,
and on the other a statement request
ing that the United States department
of agriculture or the biological sur
vey be notified, you are requested to
send this band at once to the bureau
of biological survey, United States de
partment of agriculture, Washington,
D. C.
“This band, if accompanied by a
statement as to date place and cir
cumstances under which the bird was
taken, will be of service to the survey
in its efforts to determine the long
evity of individual ducks and the
routes of migration of the species.
“The bands are being attached to
considerable numbers of wild ducks
of several species which have been
cured of the duck sickness prevalent
around Great Salt Lake Utah, and
there released. The department is
particularly anxious to secure reports
from these birds to determine their
complete recovery from this malady,
which has killed hundreds of thous
anads of ducks in Utah.”
PASS DEATH SENTENCE
ON ESSAD PASHA

death sentence passed by a court mar
tial in Constantinople on Essad Pasha,
formerly provisional president of Al
bania, has been received in Amster
dam, according to a dispatch to Reu
ter’s. The commanding genera! at
Constantinople says in the report that
at his trial Essad Pasha was proved to
have conspired with bands against
the Turkish empire and to have de
clared war on Turkey. By doing so,
the report says, and by his hostile at
titude he gave service to Turkey’s en
emies. The sentence of death was
confirmed by the Sultan.

HUGE RUN OF CARIBOU
REPORTED ON McCARTY
(Valdez Prospector)
J. Wilbur and J. Halson arrived in
town this morning from Nenana, hav
ing come out over the government
trail. Mr. Wilbur reports Nenana as
lively during the past summer, but
that at present things have slowed up
considerably on account of shutting
down on the railroad work. On the
way out Mr. Wilbur states that he
saw the largest run of caribou in the
vicinity of McCarty he ever saw in
Alaska. The hills in that vicinity
were literally alive with the animals
and hunters were busily engaged in
getting their winter’s meat. They al
so saw several moose and a number of
lynx along the road.

PILGER’S GENERAL STORE
PIEOlEP. S DOPE SHEET— We are retiring from the mercantile business in Anchorage
FEW WORDS TO THE MERCHANTS OF THE TOWN:—
and expect that our stock will be completely cleaned out in

down cost.
It would not be the part of wisdom for any of you to try and meet our prices. We are leaving Anchorage in a bona fide manner and are not merely having a clearance sale of ac
cumulated junk under the guise of “GOING OUT OF BUSINESS.” If you try to meet our prices you will be compelled to sell at same all winter. Don’t try to follow us for we will
shoot daylight in any price you think you can follow us to. .
Pilger’s Store is now cutting and slashing like a foreign soldier in the third line of the enemy’s trenches. We ask for no quarter. We give no quar+er. We shoot prices. We dy
namite precedent. The fever of the trail is in our veins. We don’t know where we’re going but we’re on our way.
j Pilger is due in Butte, Montana, Dec. 23, which will necessitate his leaving Anchorage about Dec. 3, in order to catch
i a boat from Seward about Dec. 7. He wishes to have his entire stock sold out and all accounts settled by Dec. 1.
HALT!

Pilger always kept his stock of rubber goods moving. All Pacs now on hand
are September ship. Shoes—Hi top Shoes that’s where we shine. Pilger introduced
the original Chippewa and Hunkidori Shoes into the Cook inlet country. Leather has
advanced twice since we bought. We could ship these shoes outside and get our mon
ey back over freight charges. But the boats have quit for this year. Buy a pair for
next spring. Your money invested in a pair of our shoes will earn you more money
than a loan shark's money does for him.
