ALASKA LIONS
The only lion in Alaska is believed to be at Lawing
lodge, Mile 23. The lion is quite docile for he has been
dead for many years. In former days the animal frollick
ed about in the zoo at Portland, Oregon. Standing
among the many Alaskan wild animal trophies the old
boy incites much comment but falls far short of being
lord of all he surveys in comparison to the huge Kenai
and Kodiak bear trophies.
“This is the first place I have wanted to stay in since
I left New Jersey,” said one of the lady members of the
S. S. Admiral Evans tourist party which arrived in Sew
ard the forepart of the week.
SKEPTICAL
Serious commentators are skeptical concerning the
Norwegians who allegedly left a record of their battle
with Indians near Spokane about 900 years ago. They sayj
that such isolated explorers could not have traversed the
width of the United States. But could they not have trav
eled eastward along the Siberian coast across to Alaska
and westward along the arctic shores of Canada? Any
crowd so rugged as to dwell on an ice-bound island in
Greenland would have thought the arctic and Alaska cli
mate only temperate and no obstacle to travel.
A FISH STORY
Amity between the United States and Japan is being
further improved, according to a story which sounds
fishy” but isn’t. The United States bureau of fisheries
some time ago presented the Japanese government three
million whitefish eggs, and the Japanese will send in re
turn 100 choice goldfish and 100 beautifully ornamental
carp.
HOW ABOUT IT, MAC?
Tammany Hall greeted “Al” Smith as the next presi
dent, and the governor smilingly “accepted the nomina
tion.” Now that's all settled, one naturally would like to
hear what McAdoo has to say about it.

BUCK FROM FOX ISLAND
Frank Angennan, son of Mrs. Pete
Sather, arrived in town yesterday on
the gasboat Rolfe No. 2, with a facial
adornment seldom seen on a young
chap. Frank’s face is covered with
brilliant red whiskers, about an inch
long. His disguise, however, fooled
no one and ’twas only a few minutes
following his arrival that his friends
began pumping his hand. Mr. Anger
man is spending a long vacation this
year with his mother on the Xuka
bay fox island and proposes to return
for at least another month. He has
been employed in the railroad shops
of the Copper River and Northwestern
R. R., at Cordova, as a mach:nist;for
many years in fact he served his ap
prenticeship there. Frank, who has
just recently reached his majority, is
considered one of the strongest, if I
not the strongest man working for <
the Copper river road. The story is
told that he frequently pushes en
gines and rotaries out of the round- ,
house, single-handed, just to get ’em
out of the way of the sweepers.
Once he got mad and tore a boiler
out. Another time he stripped the
tires off a loco. Frank is also quite >
an inventor and in this connection
has been working on a contraption
for three years which, when com
pleted, will revolutionize the roasting
of peanuts. And-he sings like a bird!
