I*l’USER JOE LARGE AM)
WIFE EM) HONEYMOON TRI1*
Purser Joe Large, who has for sev
eral years been been purser on the
the Alameda, for the Alaska Steam
ship Company, arrived last week from
the Interior, accompanied by Mrs.
Large. Although Joe has made about
half a thousand trips to Alaska, he
lias never visited the interior. Recent
ly Mr. Large was subpoenaed on the
Romeo Hoyt case, at Fairbanks, and
took advantage of the fact to take
Mrs. Large on a belated Alaska hon
eymoon trip. Both were delighted
with their experience and especially
with the hospitality shown them by
Interior residents, which the couple
explained was the most lavish in their
experience.
Mr. Large has been promoted to be
purser on the Alaska Steamship Com
pany's new boat, the Yukon, the larg
est vessel ever brought to Alaska as
a passenger vessel. Mr. Large in
formed the Gateway that he made
his first trip to Alaska as freight clerk
later making a score of trips to Nome
and far northern points. In 1907 he
went on the Southwestern Alaska run
and in 1912 took Fred Tracy s place
on the Alameda.
Mr. and Mrs. Large took the North
western for Seattle, and will transfer
to the Yukon there.
i Harry B. Madland, the well known
; commercial traveler, whose name is
; on the passenger list, ain’t nothing
j else but. The Northwestern sailed at
9:00 o’clock this morning and at that
hour the popular salesman was woo
ing Morpheus so devoutly that he neg
lected to arise when called by the pro
prietor of the Hotel Van Gilder. He
failed to get up in time and the boat
sailed without him, although his pas
sage was engaged.

Jesson-Howard Mine
Makes a Fine Showing
A letter received on the last train
from Bartley Howard, who with E. E.
Jesson is operating a mine on Moose
creek, the property formerly being
known as the Leroy property, writes
that February 29, they struck another
seam of coal 12 feet thick with 300
feet of overhead, and it is a clean
seam of fine coal. Mr. Howard writes
that they have two more seams ahead
of the workmen to be crosscut, and
they will then be ready to ship. Mr.
Howard says "when we get this coal,
going through Seward at the rate of
500 to 1000 tons per day it will help
everybody.”
At present the working force at the
mine consists of eight men. Samples
taken at the mine by J. J. Corey, en
gineer, show a moisture content of 4.
(33 per cent, volatile matter of 32.26
per cent, and ash 12.60 per cent.. The
final carbon content is 43.15.
Calorific tests show an average con
tent of 649(3 calories and 11,692 Brit
ish Thermal Units. The sulphur con
tent is very low, averaging 0.28 per
cent.
Mr. Howard is very much pleased
with the prospects, and says that with
a shoif railroad spur unlimited quan
tities can be shipped.
