,| PLAN TO PREVENT
REPETITION OF
BABY SLINGSBY CASE
LONDON, Dec. 2.—London hospi
tals are considering the use of baby
footprints for purposes of identifica
tion to prevent baby mixups and obvi
ate repetition of the Baby Slingsby
case.
Efforts have been made for some
time to take finger prints of new-born
infants but their tiny fists squirm and
clutch so actively that the plan failed.
The footprint is said to be quite as
i distinctive as the finger-print and a
| lot easier to tike.
j REYNOLDS NOW BOUND
SOUTH FOR THE COIN
H. D. Reynolds of Valdez, one of
the most famous of Alaska promot
ers, promoter of the Home Railway
out of Valdez, promoter of mining ac
tivity in that section, one of the
characters of Rex Beach's “The Iron
Trail,” and at the present time in
terested in promoting a smelter pro
ject for Valdez, passed through Ju
neau last night on the Mariposa
bound for the states.
Mr. Reynolds has probably led one
of the most adventurous careers in
the history of Alaskan business. He
first went to Valdez and fired the peo
: pie of that town with his energy,
promoted the Home Railway out of
Valdez through .Keystone canyon,
and towards the interior. His forces
mixed with those of the Guggenheims
and Reynolds was worsted in a tight
In the canyon in which several of his
men were killed.
Later Mr. Reynolds left Valdez for
Seatle and opened up an office in an
effort to bolster up his fortunes, but
was unsuccessful and eventually fail
ed. He later returned to Valdez,
where he is now making an effort to
gather up the loose ends of his af
fairs and rehabilitate his fortunes.
When seen last night, Mr. Rey
nolds refused to discuss his affairs,
but let it be inferred that he was
going to Seattle in an effort to float
the smelter project.—Juneau Empire.

SPENSE SORRY U. S.
MUST SELL BOOZE
AS LAW PROVIDES
(Seward Post.)
Judge Spence, U. S. attorney, ar
rived this morning from Valdez to
make final arrangements for the sale
of liquor here which had been confis
cated near Anchorage.
In discussing the various protests
against the sale of this liquor Judge
Spence said it was unfortunate, but
the law under which this liquor was
seized and the owners jailed provides
specifically that the liquor shall be
sold to the highest bidder.
I “I would gladly have seen it dump
ed overboard from the scow,” said
Judge Spence. “It is too bad that
the weather on the way round was
' not so severe that the crew would have
i been forced to throw it overboard to
‘lighten ship,’ but it is here and must
be sold. Fortunately some of the bot
tles smashed.
“I have no sympathy with the plea
of the local lquor dealers that it not!
be sold retail, however,” the judge
continued. “These dealers have been
selling liquor wholesale here by sub
terfuge, without paying a wholesale
license, and there is no reason why
the government should not sell this
retail.”
TWO MEN BET DINNER
FOR THE WHOLE TOWN
(Fairbanks News-Miner.)
According to letters from the lower
river the people of Hot Springs were
the winners on election day. J. C.
Moody, the commissioner, bet C. D.;
McCauley 4 dinner for the whole town;
that Sulzer would carry the town, j
When the votes were all in it was!
found that the democrat was victori- j
ous and like a good loser Mr. McCaul- j
ey gave a sumptuous spread and an j
enjoyable dance, to which everybody
was invited.
Owing to the wager, democrats and
Wickersham men were out early and
late getting out every vote possible,
but Commissioner Moody proved the
better vote getter.
Everybody in the district was inter
ested in the outcome, and personally,
owing to the wager, but which ever
way it went, the residents of the town
were the winners, as they got in on the
free feed and dance, while the leaders
of the opposing factions paid the bills.
