. ABOUT THE TOWN
E. C. Archer, of Raymond, Wash.,
was a passenger on the Watspp.
F. F. Duprey, of Tonopah, Ney.,
was among the Watson passengers.
Mrs. Ramsey has opened a neat
now eating place, fronting on C
street, back of the building formerly
occupied by tho Owl Drug Company.
The contractors of Anchorage are
rejoicing in the fact that Mr. Wat.
A. Maltby, an architect and builder
of Portland, has decided to locate
in Anchorage.
The new wage' scale for waiters
is $.'t.r>o per day, instead of $4, as
published yesterday. The Pioneer’s
informant with respect to the $4
scalo is an ©nicer of the union, and
takes the responsibility for the error.
Word has been received from Wm.
Martin, the Willow creek mine op
erator, that ho has recently pur
chased a big cinnabar property In
Washington and is in California at
present in the interest of the same.
The Alaska Realty and Invest
ment Company, through E. J. War
ner, have leased a portion of lot 8,
block 24, to Fargo F. Rose, who will
erect a building to be used as a
shooting'gallery and the sale of soft
drinks and cigars.
Among the notables who have
shaken the snow of the interior off
of them and decided that there will
be only one city in Alaska is Prof.
M. W. Kollm and wife, who arrived
on thq Watson and are at present
stopping at the Richter bouse.
The schooner Lucy, owned by
George W. Palmer, the Knik mer
chant, is in the harbor. The Lucy
left San Francisco on the 1st of
March, and is loaded with a stock
of general merchandise for Palmer’s
store at Knik.
Bud Whitney and wife are in
from the ranch for a few days' visit.
Among other things accomplished,
Bud extended an invitation to the
office force to Sunday dinner. How
ever, he did not specify any partic
ular Sunday.
Under the impression that there
was a dearth of legal lights in An
chorage. T. A. Wade, of ’ Diamond
vil.ol Mo., and W. H. Rager, of
Stephenville, Mont., hive located
here. These gentlemen are both at
torneys and will be ready for clients
in the very near future.
The automobile business ig getting
good. Messrs. Krause and Pedboy.
of Seattle, will open an oxygen and
acetylene welding and cutting plant
(it’s up to you) and also do auto
mobile repairing. They brought a
| Velie special built racer with them,
| that was designed and built by them.

Mr. Eric Lucas, cashier of the
Harriman Bank, of Seward, arrived
in Anchorage yesterday morning,
leaving for Knik in the afternoon on
a matter of business, returning to
Anchorage today. In other words.
Mr. Lucas has been instilled with
Anchorage push and has been going
and coming some. While this is not
verbatim, Mr. Lucas implied that he
| regretted that hig mail was not ad
dressed to Anchorage.
The paper tried to bring him in
on the Sampson, but he beat us to
it. Felix Brown and his wife ar
rived on the Watson laBt night.
Felix, commonly called “C Me" by
old friends of the north, was troubled
with the common complaint—no
place to sleep. He was lucky in meet
ing an old friend in the person of
Gus Seiffert, who generously gave up
his bed. Those who know Gus can
readily realize that there waB room
for both Mr. and Mrs. Brown in this
bed. Mr. Brown is certainly an ac
quisition to Anchorage, and in the
language of the cross-road, we wel
come both Mr. and Mrs. Brown to
our city.
As mentioned in a former issue of
this paper, “C Me will open an up

IN REBUTTAL TO
THE WEATHER MAN
The new reporter, with' a nose for
news_and some nose, too—was
fortunate in being in the vicinity
when it happened, and, being loqua
cious. can probably verify the facts.
Or. Reedy pronounced it "snowltls."
Judge David ordered him cared for
until his folks could be notified and
receive instructions as to the dis
posal of the remains. It happened
In front of Cotter’s store, and for
several momenta the curious, always
with us. blocked the sidewalks.
There should be some edict in re
gard to this. The testimony of the
bystanders was unanimous in saying
that evtrything possible was done
tor him, and the end was peaceful.
From the fact thi^t he hailed from
California and was a native son, he
j was not prepared for the change.
However, he probably had one with
I him, but the dock officials are doing
the best they can. However, at
large, the people will be compelled
to accept Dr. Reedy’s diagnosis and
call it “snowitls.”
However, for the information of
the balance of the new arrivals on
the last steamer. and bearing in
mind the old adage “An ounce,” etc.,
at this time will simply state, “and
the words are straight,” that in
order to prevent a general catas
trop’he, this snow was ordered, and
it is impossible for you to even im
agine how dippy the late Anchorage
weather was making some of the
newly arrived, especially those
claiming Kansas and Missouri as
their homes—not being used to sun
shine, clear sky, invigorating air and
perfect climatic conditions.
It is too bad. but we cannot please
all the people all the time. ,
The finest selection of high-class
cigars, cigarets, candles and soft
drinks, just arrived at the up-to

There is no north pole.
I Jack Robarts, on his trip around

up-to-date Robarts’ Billiard and
bowling Parlors, has stuck around
at the top of the world, looking for
the north pole for over a week. His

a pole in the far ndrth or any other
thing except tee.
