The Skagway Alaskan recently suf
fered rather hard luck in trying to get
out its daily edition. First the water
pipe leading to the dynamo for the
linotype machine froze and was only
thawed after about an hour's patient
work. Next the water pipe to the
dynamo for the large press burst and
the major part of the day was put
in making repairs.
Residents of Anchorage and vicin
ity have contributed $693.35 to the
tobacco fund for the soldiers and
$153.50 for, the relief of the Halifax
sufferers.
