In the show window of Lomen’s
drug store are to be seen the ban
ners of the different tribal exhibit
ors at the Igloo reindeer Fair. They
are very interesting and reveal quite
an artistic spirit among the natives.
One especially is embroidered with a
reindeer head in deer skin that is
really wonderful. This is from the
Noorvik settlement.

With reference to the reported
sale of the Gussie Ilrown from the
former owners to new owners,
further inquiries do not connect this
sale with the bringing of coal from
Lisburne. The boat was acquired bv
a man named Cawley who had pre
viously inquired as to its condition
and although told that it was bad
completed the deal. The residence
of the new owner at that time was
in Seattle, but it is now said tt be
British Columbia. As far as any de
finite information as' to the object
of the purchase, Gawler might be
going to turn it into a pirate craft
for all anyone knows on this- Head.
It will take at least $2,500 to make
this boat seaworthy. The water
has been going (ver and into her
for several vears and it weld hive
to be caulked throughout In ad
dition the engines, which are marine
steam engines, are rus'ec! nod
worthless except as junk and it is
doubtful if any sort of an overhaul
ing would fit them for the briny
again. The boat has a fair capacity
and In these days of short tonnage
might make money even for an
owner who would spend a lot in re
pairs.

corded and more fully described in

required to hold said claim.
And you are further notified that
if you fail to contribute your pro

Deep dope and then some. The
local unterrified are preparing to
foregather. A petition requiring the
officials of the Club to call a meet
ing of the Democratic Club was be
ing circulated yesterday and fully
signed. The request is mandatory
for a meeting of the Club within
throe days. It is likely that the
Club may take further action in the
matter of the endorsements, feeling
that the Vox Populi should be real
ized as the Vex Dei, as Hogan says.
The meeting will probably be held
on or about Thursday next in the
City Hall. It is likely to be very
well attended by the faithful. Allah
akbar!

The All Alaska Sweepstakes al
though run quite late this year has
run into a nest of blizzards that
threatens to make the race a fizzle.
Yesterday from the morning watch
even until evening there wasn't a
report from the mushers who since
leaving Solomon were dead to the
world “somewhere in Seward Pe
ninsula”. It was blowing some ^
yesterday and all day It was re
ported that the storm king was et- :
fecting a heavy drive across the 1
snowy plains. Councilites reported
being unable to see across the street 1
and they lost sight of the where
abouts of the N'iukluk altogether
Opinions during that crucial time
were all generally to the effect that
the teams were tied up at Timbei,
although some held to the belief j
that they were around Farmer I
Brown’s ranch in the vicinity ot I
Spruce creek. Reports from outly
ing precincts ail show that a gale
with drifting particles of snow com
mon. - i
Nothing further was heard of the ;
teams as we go to press.

Yesterday afternoon when Court j
convened and the case of The I'nited’j
States versus Karl Anderson came j j
ui). Attorney Hugh O'Neill moved j 5
to quash the indictment and in sup- !|
port of this motion submitted an i j
affidavit praying therefor aiul an !
addenda thereto as Exhibit A of the
minutes of the court from April 4
to April 7 inclusive. The District
Attorney’ while complaining that he
had been served with no notice of the
motion, did not resist the motion,
admitting that the point was well
taken that an indictment was irre- I
gular in that the Grand Jury had re- j
turned a true bill after re-opening ]
the case without a special order ot 9
the court. He therefore said that G
lie realized that the court had no 3
alternative but to quash the indict- 3
rnent and he asked that a special _
session of the Grand Jury he sum
moned for tomorrow (today) at '
eleven o’clock, that they be directed
to consider the charge against the
defendant and that the defendant
be held. The court tliereupn quashed
the indictment, directed the grand
jury to be summoned to consider the
case and that pending the report
thereon, the defendant he held. Ii
was agreed that the present bonds
of the defendant would stand. The
court then adjourned. There was a
large audience to attend the sitt
ing ot the court.
