and Henry Warnke, sons of our resi-
dent, Mrs Martha Warnke, are now in
Alaska, brought there by the gold
fever. Henry is conducting a meat
market for a syndicate at Dyea, and

tending to enter the Klondike gold
fields in the spring. The latter sailed
from Tacoma, Wash, on January B..
leaving his wife at Tacoma. He may
be absent as long as two years, at any
rate until he has his fever for gold
mining satisfied. His wife has i'm
parted the foregoing information to
relatives here.
Emil Berg, member of the
Phoenix Fire company, had an opera
ton performed Sunday for an injury
he received some two years ago while
responding to fire alarm, which
proved to be a false one. While run
ming with the hose cart across Main
street bridge collision occurred with
a telegraph pole and Berg was struck
in the side by the cart. The effects
of the injury, which was not cousid-
cred serious at the time, were never
overcome, and of late they had grown
to be of such a nature that an opera
ton was deemed necessary. 1t is ex-
pected that the patient will be all
right in few days.
Although Louis Heimerl, of this
city, is on the claim list of the Mime
apolis baseball club, it is doubtful if
he will ever go there. According to
the correspondence he has received
from the manager thus far, he cannot
see how he can. He makes him no
definite offer of salary, and wants all
the advantages on the side of the Min
neapOlis club. Louis is good pitcher
and all-rOund baseball player, and
we believe he could hold his own in
the league, but he himself is not very
anxious to play professional ball, and
it is, therefore, reasonably certain
that he will occupy the box for the
local team again this coming season.
Jefferson Banner.
Civil Engineer Lappen, of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul rail
way, was in town Friday with force
of men making a survey of the
premises of the waterworks station,
the end in view being to remove
the side-tracks that now lie in front
of the station to the rear. The
contemplated change is something
that the board of water commissioners
desire very much to have done, and
President Stone has been interesting
himself deeply in the matter. 1t is
hoped that his efforts will bear fruit,
for then many needed improvements
to the waterworks site can be accom-
plished. AS the tracks are now laid
