KERN DONATES PARK TO EL PASO:
It is now settled that P. E. Kern is
goinu to give El Paso a scenic park
and what the people of El Paso will do
to him when the whole deal is made
public will be good and plenty. It
will makeMr.Kern blush with pleasure
for the rest of his days.
Mr. Kern was a pioneer of El Paso
years ago. He loves the old town. He |
has made a fortune in Alaska and he
wants to do something for the women
and children of El Paso: something
that will cause them to remember the
genial gentleman of the rotund figure
and cherubic face. He has paid the
Kirby estate $10,350 for 34o lots in the
western end of the town, and he is
getting others to donate lots, and if
necessary will buy other lots until he
has secured 82 acres of Mand to be
presented to the city as a scenic park.
This land commands a magnificent
view of the city and valley and con
tains canyons that can with the ex
penditure of $10,000 be converted into
natural lakes that will be filled [with
water twice a year with the natural
torrential flow from the mountains.
All that is necessary is to construct
cement dams at the mouth of the four
canyons to secure perpetual lakes, one
of which will cover six whole blocks.
There are natural driveways around
th* lakes and beautiful groves of shade
trees can be grown cn the ground.
But Mr. Kern is not telling all his
plaus until he has closed negotiations
for all of the land desired. ? El Paso

BOYS HAVE A
CLOSE CALL
An accident that might easily have
proved fatal was narrowly averted
Saturday afternoon through the efforts
of Herman Grimm and Frank Page.
Mr. Grimm was standing in front of
his place of business at 3:20 p. m.
when he noticed three small boys
playing in the wood chute. Mr. Grimm
had just been talking to Mr. Page. who
told him that he was going to the foot
pf the wood chute to load some wood
that would soon be sent down.
Realizing that the boys were in
serious danger, Mr. Grimm called to
Mr. Page, and he at once set off on a
run for the wood chute.
As soon as he reached the scene he
shouted to the boys to get out of the
chute. They obeyed him at once, but
they were hardly out of the chute be
fore a heavy stick of wood came shoot
ing down. Had the boys remained in
the ohute a few seconds longer a bad
accident would have certainly resulted.
The narrow escape should be a warn
ing to parents to forbid their children
to play around the wood chute, for if
this is persisted in an accident will be
almost certain to result.

WORK THAT TELLS
The Kind Alaskan Readers Appre

Cures that last are cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must investigate the
cures and see if they prove perma
nent Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in this locality. People who test
ified years ago to relief from backache
kidney and urinary disorders, now de
clare that relief was permanent and
the cure perfect Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave., N., Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
, the public statement I gave in favor
of the remedy at that time. For two
I years I had attacks of backache and
I my kidneys were so weak that the
least cold I contracted settled in them
making my condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains in my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney secretions. A
the present time there is not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills
a trial."

Victor Sparks, who returned on the !
Jefferson after spending several months j
in Sin Francisco and visiting1 Portland ,
and Seattle, says that the people of
Skagway don't know how lucky they
are to be living in Alaska.
"Money is not so plentiful down be- j
low as it is in Skagway, said Victor
yesterday," and the young fellows who j
work in the railroad and transportation
offices in San Francisco seldom get
more than $00 or $75 a month. Lots of
the clerks in stores get as low as $8 or
$10 a week. These fellows are always
broke and near the week end they
have to touch each other for two bits |
to get their meals.
"Up here we get more money and
spend more money and live better in
every way. Skagway looks pretty
good to me- after all."
Victor says that the cost of living in j
San Francisco and Seattle is practically

Here is one page as it will appear in the Commercial Club book
advertising Skagway and which is claimed by some citizens to be det
rimental to the city.
Hotel Accomodations In Skagway
Skagway will not "take a back seat" when it comes to hotels,
There are none better in Alaska, and there are very few better
ones found in the smaller towns of the states, say about the size
and population of Skagway.
The tourist may have steam heated rooms with or without
bath, and with electric light. The beds are clean and very com
fortable, and the table service is excellent. The peopl of Alaska
are noted for the splendid tables they set, and the Hotels are not
lacking in this feature either.
Y ou may have single meals at the restaurants from 35 cents
each up to $1.00, At the hotels the flat rate is 50 cents per
meal, and at the private boarding houses where parties remain
for a time the rate is $ 1 .00 per day for board, The Hotels will
make about the same rate for periods of longer duration than a
week or ten days
The price of rooms in Skagway varies from 50 cents per
day to $2.00 per day, depending upon locating, and whether or
not they contain bath, etc.
The Aurora Borealis
AVE YOU ever seen the Aurora Borealis. It is one of the
natural phenomenas that helps make Alaska famous. These
are generall referred to as the Northern Lights, and are very
common to the people of Skaway during the fall and six
winter months, but to travellers who have never witnessed the sight they
are of unfailing interets.
Great arches of light shoot across the heaven* on the clear nights,
assuming myriads of colors, to the awe and astonishment of the spectators as
they wave back and forth, ever-changing in shap and hue. Sometimes
somber and steady they shoot their luminous rays toward the zenith, then
rise out of the horizon like the Goddess of Morning.
This is one of the great phenomenas that can be seen only in few
places of the world, and Skagway being one erf them, we must call your
attention to the fact. Here is an opportunity for poet and painter.
To be continued tomorrow.
