MAN MISSING FROM
MINING CAMP
(Anchorage Times)
A searching party, which was au
thorized by Governor George Parks,
left Anchorage July 11, to look for G.
V. Pettigrew who came to this city
from San Francisco May 3, and left
in a dory for Lewis river about May
23 in company with R. C. Beck and
J. Frederickson, to look into a placer
prospect in that vicinity.
Mr. Pettigrew, assisted by Beck and
Frederickson, built a dory here and
took a ton of provisions with them
to Lewis river, prepared to do some
extensive prospecting. Pettigrew told
S. IT. Gordon before leaving Anchor
age that he would return here in about
three weeks to meet a man by the
name of Lacke, of Brawley, Cal., to
take him out to Lewis river to look
over the property.
According to Beck and Frederick
son, who reached town Wednesday,
Pettigrew left camp with some sup
plies in his dory on June 21, and
stated in a note left for them in the
cabin that he would be back in about
two weeks’ time. Upon their arrival
here they inquired for Mr. Pettigrew
and immediately Mr. Gordon and
some others whom he had met while
in this city got busy and organized
a party to search for the missing
prospector.
Upon receipt of authorization from
Governor Parks to go ahead arrange
ments were made to leave and the
gasboat boat J. W. with sufficient
supplies aboard to last for five days
I left with Dutch Henry, H. P. Allen,
i Joe Frederickson, Wm, T. Murray, T.
G. Parker and his partner, Judd, who
are hunters and trappers from that
section and uie boat engineer, for
Lewis river, where they will go to
the Lewis river camp and then pro
ceed along the Susitna flats.
Mr. Gordon sent a telegram to Mr.
Pettigrew’s wife at Los Angeles this
morning notifying her of her hus
; band’s disappearance and stating that
j a searching party had left to hunt for
1 him.

UNWRITTEN LAW
THEME OF FILM
There are thrills as well as mighty
emotional climaxes in “Another Man’s
Wife,” at the Liberty Theater to
night. Here is a picture that blends
dare-devilism with the sweet por
trayal of love tried and found not
wanting.
“Another Man’s Wife,” a new tri
umph for Director Bruce Mitchell, is
a picture with a close-to-nature
theme. It bares the rawness of ele
mental jealousy and flaunts the argu

ment that the man-made “unwritten
law” is a vehicle of justice. It tears
to shreds the labric of the circum
stantial evidence and proves the val
ue of humility in life.
Above all else, “Another Man’s
Wife” has a cast that is admirably
fitted to the blending of the humor
ous with the dramatic. James Kirk
wood and Lila Lee, both of whom
have scored in a multitude of hits,
play the leads as John and Helen
Brand. Matt Moore is Philip Coch
ran, a naturalist, and Wallace Beery
is the Dutch captain ol' the liquor
smuggling barge.
Others in the cast are Kate Price,
Donald MacDonald, Russel Powell,
Chester Conklin, Rlalph Yearsley,
Fred Kohler and Zena Keefe.
The scenes are laid in San Fran
cisco, at sea and Mazatlan, Mexico.
Splendid photography adds to the
charm of the numerous colorful set
tings and the art of the players com
pletes the perfection of detail.
Be sure and put this one on your
entertainment list this week.
Stranger—
You are welcome to our Town
And we will make an effort
To tear all barriers down.
And when you are taking in the sights,
And have the time to spare,
Hunt up Seward’s oldest Pioneer
And see what he is doing there.
You will find he has a real live moose
Behind a high board fence,
And all it costs to see that moose
Is just Fifty Cents.
