ABOUT TOWN
Con Sullivan returned yesterday
from a 12-days’ trip into the Willow j
creek district where he has been ir.
the ini-.-rests of local capital. Mr.
Sullivan was very much impressed
with the outlook in that country and j
says that if they had the same show
ing in Nevada or any of the mining I
states that it would justify a boom
and that it will only take proper de
velopment to make a big camp of the |
Willow creek district. He visited the
Mable, Alaska and Free Gold and the
Independence mines in addition to
looking into several prospects and ex
pects to return to that country to
morrow.
A. S. Koch desires to thank the
members of the marshall’s office for
their services in assisting at the fire

E. M. Huff is trying to organize a ;
gun club in Anchorage and requests
all persons interested in this line of j
sport to call on him at the Bank of
Anchorage. Several of the local
sports have already signified their in- j
tentions of joining and there should
be no trouble in organizing a gun
club in Anchorage that would give a
good account of itself in any competi
tion that may be arranged with Sew-!
ard or the neighboring towns.
Joe Spenard reports that he hasn’t
completed his work at his new road
house at Jeter lake and the opening
will not take place until next Sunday,
July 30th, but that 15 Anchorage peo
ple spent last Sunday at his place and
all had an enjoyable time.
It is with regret that The Daily
Times announces the departure of
Captain Sid Barrington and the Hazel
B No. 2 from Anchorage. Captain ,
Barrington loaded the Hazel B. No. 2
on the government tug Roscoe yes
terday and will go to Wrangell where
he will operate on the Stickene river.
From the fact that the commission
has announced that the government
work at Talkeetna will close down on
October 1st, many people who were
figuring on locating there have decid
ed to wait until next spring at the
commencement of further operations
and the present river business does
not justify the operation of such a
boat as the Hazel B. No. 2.
The “Bill’s” club will hold an in
formal dance tonight at their club
room ,to which all visiting Elks are
invited.

written volumes, for instance the
names of Col. Harry Revell, Miss
Babe White, Jim Wardell, George
Cotter, and Sport Smith casually ap
pear in the article.
