AROUND THE
Commissioner Mears and Resident
Engineer H. F. Dose left yesterday
morning for an inspection trip over
the Turnagain Arm district and will
return tomorrow.
A force of men are working on the
100-ton coal bunkers in the O’Reilly
Doherty coal yard at the foot of C
street. Mr. O’Reilly says the bunk
ers will be finished in time to receive
tomorrow’s shipment from the Moose
creek coal mine.
Miss Ella Threlfall, an expert ac
countant and stenographer who has
been in Anchorage for the past two
months, was an outgoing passenger
on the Admiral Evans en route to her
home in San Francisco where she will
spend the winter.
Colonel Revell returned late last
night from his first mail trip to Idit
arod and way stations and says the
trail over the entire route was in
very good condition. He leaves to
morrow morning for Seward and the
Revell mail service is on from Sew
ard to the Iditarod.
The freighter Bangor with 792,000
feet of lumber in addition to a large
shipment of laths and shingles for
the Anchorage Supply company, ar
rived in the harbor yesterday after
noon and is laying by off Fire island
until Sunday morning when the car
go will be discharged.
Matt Button, an enthusiastic mem
ber, has notified the Times that the
Pioneers of Alaska will hold a smoker
in the Moose club rooms tonight and
the festivities start promptly at 8
o’clock. Special arrangements have
been made to make theaffair a success
and every member is earnestly re
quested to be on hand. In addition to
dwelling on “how it happened,” and
“what might have been,” there will be
social features of merit with a grand
climax of the big feed.
From school teacher to merchant.
Miss Juanita Anderson, formerly con
nected with the Seldovia public
schools, has recently leased the Her
bert store building- at that place and
has stocked same with a complete line
of general merchandise. Miss Ander
son is a true daughter of the north
with a coast wide acquaintance of
friends who will be glad to learn of
her independence and new venture in
the commercial world and moreover
join with the Times in wishing her
the success she is justly entitled to.
Senator and Mrs. Charles A. Sulzer
left last night on the Admiral Evans
for their home. Before departing Mr.
Sulzer stated to the Times that he was
confident of receiving the election for
delegate by a plurality of 400 votes.
Mr. Sulzer said further: “We are
much pleased with our visit to An
chorage and have enjoyed our stay
here very much. Whether I am elect
ed or not I shall always be glad to do
any thing for in my power for this
section and I desire to say that I am
thoroughly in favor of the govern
ment railway project and always have
been. If I am elected delegate you
may depend upon me to assist in ev
ery possible manner to bring about
the completion of the railroad at the
earliest possible time, and not only
the completion of the main line but
also side lines and wagon roads and
trails to develop the tributary coun
try and I firmly believe these projects
will open up an immense area of won
derfully rich territory.”
Marshal Hoffman Marries.
Frank Hoffman stood on the cold
dock and anxiously awaited the ar
rival of the Admiral Evans. He
spoke to no man and from the fact
that he was so distant and nervous no
man spoke to him more than once.
Like a caged lion or better like a
school boy waiting for his turn at the
Friday afternoon exercises, Frank
paced back and forth on the dock al
ways entreatingly holding out his
arms in supplication towards the
cruel tide that was so slow in bring
ing the Evans and her precious cargo
to shore. After what seemed hours
to Frank, but which in reality was
only the matter of a few moments the
passengers disembarked and the se
cret was out.
They were married this morning by
Judge Leopold David in the presence
of J. J. Sturgis and Annie Sturgis and
will make their future home in Mat
anuska.
Miss Florence Haughian, who came
all the way from Seattle to marry
Mr. Hoffman proves without a doubt
that Frank is a man of discernment
and good judgment. Everybody
knows and admires Frank Hoffman,
who is so ably upholding the laws of
the land in his capacity of deputy
United States marshal with headquar
ters at Matanuska. Let The Daily
Times be among the many who wish
Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman the pleasures
and happiness of an ideal married
life.

EVANS SAILS
ON LAST TRIP
; “And as she went it was like the
; passing of sweet music.” The final
blast from the whistling Admiral Ev
ans as she steamed away last night to
J Seattle from her last trip to Anchor
| age for the year 1916 could hardly be
I called music, but you can double the
| bet that next spring’s iirst and wel
| coming whistle, announcing her ap
| p roach fresh from the outside world,
will be full of notes giving forth the
kind of music you have been hunger
ing for for, several months. To a
few of the favored four thousand who
expect to remain in the city for the
winter the sound was rather sail and
mournful and they probably felt a
faint sinking in their interior work
ings that has no connection with the
pit of the stomach where it landed.
And too they no doubt felt homesick
and longed for something that haint
but has been. Still it will not be long
until these same four thousand will
crowd the government dock to wel
come the return of the Admiral Evans
and in that hour will glory in them
selves that they are numbered among
the sourdoughs and the winter in An
chorage wasn’t so worse after all.
Let’s hurry “Tempus Fugit.”
MAT CONTEST
. Through the columns of the Times
J. Blase, manager for Andy Martin,
the wrestler, wishes to state to the j
public that he is ready to arrange for I
another match with Bob Peterson. !
The former match was postponed and :
the money withdrawn on account of;
Martin having been unavoidably de- j
layed on a hunting trip.
The Times called up Jack Robarts
this morning and there is no doubt but
that the public will yet have an op
portunity of seeing these two expon
ents of the mat in action. Jack had
gone to a good deal of trouble and ex
pense in arranging for the other
match and it is no more than right
that he should have the first chance at
this one. He said this morning that
he turned over all bets that had been
placed with him on the former match
but was willing to take up the matter
with Peterson again and would notify
the Times the result of the conference
for tomorrow’s paper.
TE OLD THE
"Ye Old Tyme Variety” is billed for
next Monday night. This will be the
the production of the combined vaude
ville talent of Anchorage under the
directorship of Jack Dunstan. The
city has been combed for talent and it
is remarkable the number of stars and
staresses; donnas and prima donnas
that Anchorage is harboring. Some
of them go to music, some to trage
dy and some to dancing and comedy
but from the whole the leaders will be
selected.
The team is practicing daily and
are rapidly developing into their old
form. And there will be the soubrette
and the beginner who has hopes. It
will be good, it will be very good and
the price is nominal for the entire
proceeds of the'.evening will go to
wards paying for the new Alaska La
bor union hall and the management
expects to fill the Empress theatre to
capacity next Monday night.
