HARRY DAVIS FRANK TAYLOR
Among the arrivals in town on
the Carl White launch from Tolo
vanana this morning is Mr. Charles
Lynn, who has been operating this
summer on the George Associaion
on Livengood creek.
Mr. Lynn says that despite ad
verse labor conditions and the short
age of water for sluicing purposes
encountered during the mining sea
son, the gold output of the camp
will be quite as much or little more
than last year. The miners of the
district were greatly handicapped
this season owing to a shortage of
labor and water, and during prac
tically the whole of July no sluicing
was done. The operators kept on
working just the same and con
tinued hoisting and piling up the
dumps for sluicing when sufficient
water became available.
Mr. Lynn is here for the express
purpose of witnessing the work done
by the Bueyrus dragline excavator,
with a view to adopting a machine
of this kind on mining claims, if
possible. He will probably go out
to the dragline camp today and
watch the operations of the big
machine.
STIRRING SCENES AT
COLISEUM TONIGHT
The feature for tonight at the
Coliseum will be the famous play
entitled “Mr. Crex of Monte Carlo”
with Theodore Roberts in the title
role.
The opening scenes are laid in the
famous Casino at Monte Carlo,
where the wealth and fashion of the
civilized world gather to indulge
in gambling unrestrained by the law.
Three of the most noted and able
diplomats of three European pow
ers, who are charged with the con
; summation of a treaty which if
| signed will leave England in a pre
I carious position, meet at the famous
I Casino as if by accident. Their
| watchword is “England must not
know.” Lort Huntersley is sent by
| the English government, who sus
ipect a plot, and he arrives in Monte
Carlo just before the three diplo
! mats meet.
I A pretty love story is entwined
jin the diplomatic maze, with a young
I American who generaly gets what
t he wants and the daughter of one
;of the diplomats as the principals.
! The scenes are gorgeous and the
big gambling room at that world
famous gambling resort is depicted
in all its splendor. There will be
i five acts to this feature, and the
management announces that bargain
; prices will prevail for tonight, the
! admission being 25 cents, with re
: served seats two-bits extra.

Alaska natives of the Susitna
j tribe think of the building of the
; government road is the fulfillment
; of a prophecy made years ago by a
■ chief of the aribe. According tc
i his descendants the old Indian said
! that some day they would be able
; to travel by other means than boats
1 There appeared to him, it is said
I “two brown streaks running thri
j the country and ending at the ocear
! beach.” The natives think the
j “streaks” were the present day stee
: rails.
Three alleged violators of the es
I pionage law were recently taken te
iJuneau from Funter Bay. The;
i were Filipinos who had attemptee
I to persuade their fellow workmei
j to ask a higher price for their worl
! or quit. They were placed in th<
j city jail. It is said the men ar<
; above the average in intelligence.
Booze galore, enought to make
small fortune, if sold at $10 j
botfcje—23 cases and two gunr
sacks to be exact—were seized
Juneau recently in a shed rig
across the street from the Cust<
office. From the appearance of t
boxes and sacks they had been
hiding for some time as they h
mould on them.
1). S. AH NEEDS
MANY OFFICERS
IN THE SERVICE
—
Frederick D. Browne, who was:
recently appointed branch manager
of the Military Bureau of the Uni
versity of California, with head
quarters in Nenana, has received
much information regarding the re
quirements of the army and would
be glad to impart any or all of this
information to those seeking to enter
the United States army through the
local branch of the Military Bureau.
Mr. Browne has released for pub
lication, the following information
regarding the Field Artillery Offi
cers’ Training School, the Quarter
master's school at Jacksonville, Fla.
and the Aircraft Production depart
ment.
Subject: Field Artillery Central
Officers’ Training School.
1. The need for officers is great
er today than it has been at any
time since the United States entered
the war, and as the efficiency of the
army depends upon its officers, it
is essential that only men of the
best type should be taken into this
school. Either the great need which
now exists for officers is not gen
erally realized, or the leading men
of the country fail to appreciate
their responsibility, for we regret
to say that few such men are apply
ing for admission to this school.
2. It is generally conceded tnat
the United States must supply the
preponderance of man power to win
the war, and it goes without saying
that this man power must be effi
ciently officered. Consequently, the
duration of the war, and possibly
its ultimate outcome will directly
depend on the quality of the men
who are sent to this and to other
Central Officers’ Training Schools.
3. It has been brought to our
notice that some older men have
hesitated to apply for admission
to this school on account of an
erroneous impression that the field
artillery requires an intimate know
ledge of mathematics. As a matter
of fact, our mathematical require
ments should not be a stumbling
block to a man of officer caliber.
It is believed that any man who
has successfully Dassed the ordinary
college or high school courses in
algebra and plane geometry will be
able to re-aquire a sufficient know
ledge of these subjects during the
first month at this school, when
a preliminary “brushing up” course
in mathematics will be given.
4. Applications to the Central
Officers’ Training School must be
made through the Professor of Mili
tary Science and Tactics at the
university nearest the applicant.
Subject: Quartermaster School at
Camp Johnston.
X. The quartermaster school at
Camp Joseph E. Johnston, Jackson
ville, Florida, gives courses in three
main divisions of work, namely,
quartermaster office work, shop
training, and training in motor
truck work. In addition to the en
listed men’s courses it gives a course
for officers in all three of the di
visions.
2. The courses vary from four to
eight weeks, depending upon the
preparation of the student.
3. The entrance requirements to
the courses are established by the
Quartermaster Corps. Men are as
signed to the school from other
. draft and training camps in propor
, tions as l^id down by the office of
, the Quartermaster General at Wash
I ington. Men are admited to the
, school only through the regular
military channels, namely, they must
be enlisted and be sent from some
camp, cantonment or depot.
Subject: Aircraft Production.
1. Any men who have had ex
i perience in logging and sawmill
• work with the ability to handle in
■ spection of same can be used in the
: Bureau of Aircraft Production. Also
; men with sufficent technical know
i ledge of wood to enable them to
■ become inspectors of wood parts,
i preferably men with college educa
I tions, are wanted.
2. Candidates should submit ap
