LAST NIGHT
The Northern Club last night was
reorganized by a number of the mem
bers. who met and passed on the ad
mission of twenty-three new members.
For the past several years the club
has not maintained rooms, but the nc
cessity of some such organization has
been felt, and the active members de
cidcd to revive the club.
Itoonis have been fitted up in the
Burkhart building, which can be
reached by the entrance to the Eagle's
hall. The rooms have been complete
ly refitted and new furniture added to
make them among the most pleasant
of the kind In Alaska.
The Northern Club is purely a so
cial organization, and the members
include most of the business men of
Cordova. A. J. Adams is president
and M. Brock secretary.
As soon as the rooms are ready for
occupancy, it is planned to give a
house warming, to which all the mem
bers will Invite friends.

CUNNINGHAM GETS BROWN'
BEAR—ALMOST ANOTHER
Frank Cunningham, of the Alaskan
Hotel barber shop, returned yester
day from his trip up the line in search
of bear. He succeeded in killing one
yearling brown bear, which he brought,
in with him on the train.
Cunningham reports seeing three!
others, one big and two smaller ones, j
He shot at the big one three times, |
knocking it over with the last shot.
Thinking it was dead he was about to
go to it. when the bear rose up and
started In his direction. Luckily the
bear failed to notice the hunter and
continued on into the brush. Cun
ningham followed it for more than a
mile, tracing it by the blood which
was flowing profusely from its
wounds.
Darkness overtook him and he was
forced to leave the trail, and now he
never will know whether he got the
bear or not.
-:o:
You can rely on the news being cor*
rect when you see It in the Times.

| The lighthouse tender Kukul, Cap
j tain Gregory, will sail today with W.
Dribell, Inspector, who will make
his annual inspection of the light
houses and aids to navigation on the
1 Maskan coast.
The Kukul will visit all parts of the
| coast where there are any buoys or
lights. These will he carefully In
spected, refilled, and when necessary
repaired. Supplies will be taken to
the lighthouses sufficient to keep the
three keepers stationed at each light
for one year, until the next arrival of
the tender.
The work of Inspector Dribell will
take the Kukul as far west as Uni
mak pass,' where there are two light
houses. The keepers of these have j
now been there for three years and |
are entiled to one year’s vacation. |
The new men. who will take their,
places are aboard the Kukul, and will
be landed on her present trip and the
old keepers taken aboard.
Tua nnic aontvlono hlinl/ ora u 111
placed on Cook Inlet, one between
Resurrection bay and Cook inlet, and
one at the entrance to Kodiak. These
blinkers are known as unattended
lights and may be left without atten
tion for twenty months. They are
visited each year, however, by the
lighthouse tender and the supply of
carbide replenished.
Three gas buoys will be anchored!
in Prince William sound. Two of]
them will be In Orea inlet and the
j third will be placed off Reef island
reef.
Inspector Drihel says the Cape St
Elias light probably will be completed]
| t>y fall. This light, although not rated :
as a light of the first order, is so Itn- :
] proved that in strength It will equal J
j the older lights of that rating. It ] •]
Ms about equal to the light on Cape)-;
j liinchinbrook, and will give a double j l
flash every 20 seconds.
Following the usual custom, the j :•
j light is placed as low as possible in j;]
■ order to avoid having it obscured by \
I fogs, it is about 80 feet above sea , 2
level and will be visible between lf<;.
land 18 miles off shore. The station'
|also will be equipped with a fog siren; i
of the first class . This will give aj:-:
double blast every minute. I:-;
The Kukui probably will not return: v
to Cordova for two and one-half j-:]
months, which is the time it is esti :•]
| mated will be required to complete::;:
her work to the west ward. I:}
