RUNNING In DAWSON.

Dawson has full-fedged lottery in con-
nection with its other institutions OF
amusement and chance. 1t must be class
ed as amusements when rich kiondikers

800 tickets had been sold.
Klondike Louisiana lottery Is the name
it bears and It's headquarters Is In tent

as the Victoria saloon, where bad whisky
