In opening our new store, we wisli to
announce that hereafter as in the past,

In inviting the public to our new store,
we wish to draw the attention of the

which are equal to any in Anchorage,
were made by local artisans.
At this time we also wish to announce
that for the benefit of our patrons, our
store on Fifth and 0. street will be kept
stocked as fully as ever.

With the recent enlargement of its
plant the Alaska Juneau mill is now
crushing nearly one thousand tons of
ore per day.
Fair pay is reported to have been
struck on Charles Ross’ ground on
Center creek, Nome district, by Leo
Williams and partner.
Five of the crew of the steamer
Jefferson, plying between Seattle and
Southeastern Alaska, were recently
discharged for being German nation
ality.
Harry A. Lawrence, Alaska repre
sentative of the Union Pacific system,
is authority for the statement that the
tourist travel to Alaska will be very
heavy despite the war.
The Admiral Evans on a recent trip
south, took thirty tons of iron ore
from Seldovia to the states for a test.
This is the first iron shipment ever
sent out of the territory.
At the Wrangell hote', sauer kraut
no longer has a place on the bill of
fare as being too German in sound.
It is “pickled cabbage” now in ac
cordance with Capt. Grant of the
Wrangell Guard.
The Golden Gate mill on Chichagof!
island, which has been closed down
since last January on account of lack
of water due to a mud slide blocking
the intake pipe, is again in operation,
the slide having been removed.
At the recent cave-in of the Tread
well mines which resulted in the flood
ing of the underground workings,
about a dozen horses and mules were
drowned, among them being one mule
that had not seen the light of day for
five years.
Following the cave-in of the Tread
well mines and resulting from the be
lief that it spelled the doom of min
ing there, quite a run was started on
the First Territorial bank at Douglas
but it soon ended. About $50,000 was
paid out before the run ceased.
Captain Jack Healey, formerly the
commander of the revenue cutter Cor
win, which for a number of years held
the record for early arrival in Nome
each season, is now first mate of the
freighter Rovallia, operating between
Seattle and Southeastern Alaska.
The Fairbanks section, including
the Hot Springs district, will produce
$3,500,000 this season, is the estimate
of Theodore Johnson of E. R. Peoples
& Co. In addition to this the Tolo
vana country is expected to produce
from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000.
Ground running $3 to the square
foot of bedrock is said to have been
found on Amy creek in the Tolovana
district. The claim on which the pay
was found is known as the Union
bench claim, located on the right limit.
It is the richest pay yet discovered in
this vicinity.
rreclerick Zorn, the Alaska i’ros
pector,” strongly urges the establish
ment of a traveling constabulary for
Alaska. “I could point out the work
of a half dozen Krauses,” says Zorn.
“Many lives have been snuffed out by
such slippery eels and crawling human
tigers as that Edward Krause.”
Former Governor John G. Brady
fell from, a boat cradle on the beach
at Sitka, hitting the rocks below,
breaking his left arm and seriously
injuring his back and head. From the
examination of the aged man’s inju
ries at the time it was not known
whether or not he sustained internal
injuries or not.
