Jimmy Hewitt with the assistance
of a few men are busy removing the
bar fixtures etc, from the building
adjoining the Nome Bakery and
storing same in a warehouse.
The building is owned by Si Car
man, and was formerly known as j
the Angeles saloon, _ and later as!
Lynell’s grape juice emporium.
Mr. Hewitt does not contemplate I
opening up a place of business at
present, but may do so at some
future date—in the building former
ly known as the Headquarters sa
loon.

The dredge on Bangor creek has
boon given a thorough overhauling.
The crew recently returned to town,
io wait until such time as condi
tions will be favorable for th? ex
cavator to raise the auriferous grav
el from the creek-bed and dump it
into the sluice boxes.
Apparently, the efficient manner
in which the official poundmaster
performed his duties during th'1
first couple of days after his initia
tion has brought about very good
results.
We’ve heard several ladies remark
that it is now a pleasure for them
to take their children down town
for a tittle exercise as well as
fresh air—without being In fear of
the youngsters being bitten by vi- '
eious dogs, which formerly seemed i
to have a special privilege to roam ,
the streets. (It is the duty of the ]
Mayor and his colleagues to see that i
the aforesaid good work is kept up i
to its present standard.)
Play no favorites regardless of j
whose dogs they may be, or how J
much “Influence” the owner may i
have. "Why should one man’s ^
dog be released from the pound by J
the 'dictum- of a certain council- i
man—without any remuneration to
tho poundmaster—and another’s ^
not?-- ’
-i
Boarding House Mistress—Is this ij
beef too rare for you, Mr. Simp? J
Mr. Simp—Wcl-1 since you ask ?
me. I would like it a little oftenor. i
