The changes to the roadbed Of the
Augusta, Halowell & Gardiner Elec-
trio Railroad below Maple street, Lou
don Hill, will, when completed, include
some of the most radical improvements
which have been made since the open
ing of the road almost 10 years ago. A
culvert Of durable masonry has been
built across the stream near the upper
glue factory Of George II. Seavey, and
another is being built some distance
north. In some places the new road
bed is from - to 20 feet west Of the
track. and will make the highway
much broader than al present. North
Of Maple street the old trestle will be
wholly done away with. The filling
has been general along here, and the
slope from one hill to the other Is very

Holdups are getting common occur rences at Skagway.
 It is reported that Skagway had a shooting scrape last week, and the law yers are all in Juneau.
 Our efforts to get Jack Beard and Joe McClusky into the squared ring have not succeeded.
 Miller, the hotel man of Skagway, was promptly acquitted on the charge of ofembezzlement. The jury was out but few minutes.
 Mrs. H. R. Shepard called last Satur- day evening and gave us some infor- nation in regard to the doings of the St. Lukes Guild.
 The Alaska Furniture Company has received a new stock of furniture. Call and see these new goods-they are very nice. MT. Knight knows what the people want and is prepared to supply them with anything in the furniture line.
 Joe French, the great big man who pulls the throttle on one of the small est locomotives at the Treadwell mines, was in town Saturday evening. He is a juryman this term of court and is having good rest. We often won dered why such large man was put on so small an engine and we have found out-he dispenses with the use of sand and ballast.
 Mir. R. B. Baton, Deputy Internal Revenue Collector for Alaska, has been in Juneau for week past. His office is at Skagway. He was recently ap- pointed stamp deputy for this district, which will be quite a convenience to our people. Mir. Baton isa very pleas. ant gentleman, and his appointment came to him without solicitation on his part. He was formerly from Portland.

The Douglas Island News,
FROM HAYNES. Items of Interest From Our Regular Corr respondent, Mir. L. L. Bales.

There is a chance for a good barber at Haines.
 Jack Dalton's building is going up this week on Front street.
 Mir. Frank Grygla and son will work their Porpupine property this winter.
 AS soon as the river freezes over there will be an influx of people to the Por- cupine country.
 Mir. Arthur Gardner, of Milwaukee, Wis, passed through Haines cnroute to the Porcupine district to look after his interests there.
 A raft containing 15OOO feet of lum- Der belonging to Henry Erie, of Haines was lost in the heavy blow last week, while being lowed down from Dyea.
 Mir. Henry Phillips, the Porcupine mail carrier, left Haines on the 18th with the U. S. mail for the mining camps. MT. Phillips will make two trips month.
 Mir. Andrew Dreher will move into his new building near the wharf soon. This is an up-to-date bakery with fine brick ovens and all the facilities for supplying the trade.
 US. Court Commissioner Sol Ripin- sky. has just returned from holding court at Skagway. While there, the Judge sent number of criminals to Sitka to ponder over their misdeeds.
 Mir. Chas. Nystrum, of Smoke House Bay, called and subscribed for the Douglas Island News. MT. Nystrum believes in patronizing the paper that speaks we'll of Haines and the only one that publishes the Haines items.
 The beautiful Miss Dunsmore, daugh- ter of Judge Scundoo, was married last week to Louis Shortridge. This we'd ding was performed in true Indian style with all the pomp and ceremony as used by them on such occasions. Susie was the native belle of Haines and her host of friends wish her long and happy life.
 Mir. F. F. Clark, the popular hotel keeper of Porcupine, and who is just down from the mining camps reports 30 people in camp and all well. Mir. Clark exhibited in this office $500 in nuggets running from 9 cents to S15. This was a fair sample of the Porcu- pine gold. It runs from S15. to SI7.36 and brings at the banks in Douglas City and Juneau, s16.5O in cash per ounce. Mir. Clark states that Biglow & Smith are putting in pump on No. l below Discovery on Porcupine, and will work that and the adjoining claims, known as the McKirk claims Mr. Clark is we'll satisfied that they have a good hydraulic camp and will stay with it.
