ROAD HOUSE FOR
NEW LAKE RESORT
Through the efforts of Joe Spenard
Anchorage is soon to have a resort
where our people can while away
their spare time very pleasantly. Mr.
Spenard owns a homestead at Jetei
lake and he is now* engaged in tht
work of transforming that spot into
a pleasure resort for both summer
and winter.
The spot is an ideal one, where
there is a large body of fresh water,
which affords' the best kind of bath
I ing; there is also good fishing, while
j the surrounding country abounds in
big game. During the winter months
an ice rink will be the attraction.
In order to properly care for those
who will take advantage of the op
portunity to enjoy themselves at such
a resort Mr. Spenard will build a
large road house there. It will be a
two-story building 30 x 50 feet, the
ground floor being fitted up for danc
ing and as a dining room. The sec
ond story will contain a number of
rooms for those desiring to remain
any length of time.
Tent bath houses, for both ladies
and gentlemen, will be erected along
the beach, where bathing suits can be
rented. There will also be a small
dock and float built to accommodate
the craft of motor and row boats.
A force of men is at present build
ing a corduroy road to the lake, which
will be completed by Sunday. From
Wortman’s homestead there is a cut
off, which reduces the distance from
there to the lake about two miles.
Spenard has also arranged to make
daily trips between Anchorage and
the lake with his automobile and in
order to properly take care of
this new business will discontinue his
city express service.
CAPT. LATHROP TO BUILD
NEW THEATRE AT SEWARD
Capt. A. E. Lathrop will be an out
going passenger on the steamer Alas
ko. He will stop over in Seward be- 1
tween boats to arrange for the con- i
struction of a new theatre building at
our neighboring town. The captain 1
will then proceed to Seattle to pur
chase the furnishings for lys new
movie house and expects to return to
Anchorage in about a month.
NO BOAT IS FOUND
TO REPLACE DORA
Alex McDonald, agent for the Alas
ka Steamship company, has received
advices that the company is unable
to charter a boat to take the place of
the Dora on the westward run fpr
July. Passengers who started west
on the last trip can remain here and
go west in August on their original
ticket, or will be returned to Seattle
or the point on which they boarded
the company boat. The Dora will be
repaired in time to go west August
20th.—Seward Post.

THIS
SPOON
NENANA TOWNSITE
MAY BE CHANGED!
According to F. H. Bailey, the di
vision engineer in charge of work at
Nenana, it may become necessary for
the railroad commission to transfer
the townsite from where it was sur
veyed iast fall, on the north sn'.e of
the river, to the south side, near
Dukes’ trading post. The position of
the bridge may be changed also from
the place originally intended. This
will depend, however, upon what the
commission discovers when they start
boring to learn the formation.
If the new proposed site is selected
it will include practically all of that
ground now used by Duke’s trading
post, and will be bordered practically ;
by the Tanana river on one side and
the Nenana river on the other side, i
DELEGATE IS ANXIOUS TO
RETURN TO ALASKA
In a letter received recently from
Delegate Wickersham .the latter,
states that he expects to come home :
soon. One paragraph of his letter, j
which is as follows, will be of interest:
to his friends:
“I have no idea when I will be able j
to get away from Washington for no
one yet knows when congress will ad
journ. Ordinarily it would continue
in session until September, but every
effort is being made to elbow all sorts
of legislation out of the way and ad
journ. Whether it will be pos
sible to do that or not I very
greatly doubt. At any rate I will
come to Alaska as soon as congress
adjourns and will be home as soon
as possible.”
ALASKA TRAVEL HEAVY
DURING PAST SIX MONTHS
For the six months of the present
calendar year ending June 30, it is
estimated that 17,000 passengers have
moved to Alaska, including all classes
of travel via American and Canadian
steamship lines. This is the largest
number of northbound passengers ev
er recorded during a similar six
months period, and is an indication of
the growing importance of the pas
senger traffic in relation to the gen
eral steamship operations. It also dis
tinctly foreshadows the construction
of a fleet qf fast, exclusive passenger,
mail and express steamships fitted up
with rooms de luxe and extra fare
suites for service on the inside pas- !
sage run from Seattle to Anchorage.
Richard Heimer, better known as \
“Dick the Trapper,” arrived in Cor
dova, with a large bunch of furs, in
cluding the skins of six bears, 30 1
minks, two cross foxes, two red fox- j
es and a number of otters, lynx and ;
weasels.
The Nome city council has issued
warnings to owners of property in
the restricted district at that place
not to rent dwellings to incoming
women, the object being to limit the
number of those already there.
