QUICK TRIP IS MADE
SEATTLE TO INTERIOR
Lynn Smith, well-known resident
of Ruby, reached Fairbanks yester
day on a Karstens auto, just nine
days from Seattle, which is almost
the record. Smith lost no time at
Cordova, petting: a train out from
Cordova soon after the arrival of
his steamer, and at Chitina he was
fortunate in finding a Karstens auto
ready to carry him to Fairbanks.
He did not take a chance on the
mail stage.
Smith is enroute to his home in
Ruby and probably will leave the
upper town within the next few
days.

MAIL BRIDE PUIS
SKIDS TO FIANCE
There is said to be a roadhous.
man on the Circle-Fairbanks trai
who is out several hundred dollar
a; the result of engaging too seri
ously in matrimonial correspondence
The experience cost him the fare o
a young iadv to Circle and bad
again to the States.
Those who tell the story say th<
roadhouse man is a good correspond
ent and an enthusiastic booster o:
Circle and the roadhouse life or
the trail. At any rate, after •
number of letters had been ex
changed between the oldtimer ant
the girl ^it the other end of the cor
respondence, the picture bride, a:
the Japs call them, decided to take
a chance in the North, and madt
the long journey full of illusions.
! Then came the disillusionment
Both the town of Circle and he]
mail-order husband proved disap
pointing. The joyousness of thf
meeting was all one-sided and, a
the risk of breaking a sourdough';
heart, the maiden expressed a de
.sire to return as quickly as possible
to that dear Outside.
The next boat took her away.

BREWER OF ENGLAND
ADVOCATES REFORMS
TO CHECK DRINKINC
* _
LONDON.—An important brewej
who advocates restrictions upon th<
; consumption of his product has beef
.found in the person of Sir Archi
l bald Salvidge of Liverpool, manag
jing director of a brewery company
which owns three hundred of whal
are called saloons in the United
.States, who proposes that the war
j time restrictions upon drinkins
'hours shall be continued.
Under the old regulations public
houses in London closed at mid
night, and might open at any houi
in the morning they pleaded. Most
of them opened at six, but in some
working districts they were open
at five, and one of the evils of that
system was the custom among many
workingmen of drinking beer before
breakfast.
The present hours for opening
are from twelve-thirty to three in
the afternoon, and from six to ten'
' at night, (the closing hour until re
cently being nine), with shorter
’ hours on Sunday.
Sir Archibald Salvidge said to a
‘ jreporter: "The old conditions when
: i hours ranged from six in the morn
'jing until eleven at night, I trust,
i
■ {will never return.”

ANDERSON BROS. & NERLAND.
The train arriving from Fairbanks
' .today brought only a small con
‘ ;signment of local first call mail and
a handful of second class matter,
^‘consisting chiefly of newspapers. The
: I
failure of more mail to arrive is at
' itributed to the difficulties the Brow
jer stages are having on the Rich
ardson traii, several of the autos
having become stalled enroute since
' jthe commencement of the winter
service.
j One of the stages was due at
1 | Fairbanks last night with a ship
'.ment of first class mail, but it failed
]to arrive, and reports from the up
per town indicate that it may not
reach town until tomorrow or next
I i day. Several other rigs are close
behind, and probably all of them
j will arrive in a bunch,
j The failure of Brower to make
jgood at the commencement of the
; season encourages the belief that
ithe mail sendee this winter will be
jvery irregular, and already there is
’considerable agitation for an inde
pendent sendee between Xenana and
the coast bv wav of Broad Pass.
