Mr. and Mrs. Tom McKinnon, who

cil regions.
Many of the Interior mining peo
ple are nowr en route to the coast,
it is reported by late arrivals in
town. Workings have all ceased in
the remote districts and trail condi
tions are now such that outbound
travel is beginning. The first of
these miners and operators arrived in
Seward Saturday, the most of them
departing for the States this morning
on the Victoria.
The Anchorage basketball players
left for home this morning with one
game tucked away to their credit,
out of a possible three.
E. Anderson, dredge master of the
Yankee creek dredge, McGrath dis
trict, was among those arriving in
Seward en route to the States for
the winter.
Lars Indegard, wenchman for the
Flume dredging company on Yankee
creek, departed this morning for Se
attle on the Victoria.
E. Morgan, dredge master of the
Little creek dredge and J. Hill, en
gineer, passd thru Seward last week
en route to the States.
Mrs. J. H. Romig, former Seward
resident and wife of Dr. Romig, ar
rived in town Saturday for a few
days visit with her daughter, Mrs.
J. P. Hannon. Mrs. Romig expects to
leave for her Anchorage home next
Thursday.
Oscar Dahl, proprietor of the Se
ward Hotel is among those who
will return Wednesday from Anchor
age.
Arrivals on trains from the Inte
rior all speak of the beautiful appear
ance the Jesse Lee Home makes in
the evening, with electric lights fil
tering from the many windows, as the
train sweeps by.
Two new pictures have been hung
up in the High School Assembly. One
fo them is a picture of three differ
ent scenes, each of which is delicate
ly tinted. The other picture is an
oil painting of Mount McKinley.
