An examination OF the city drink
ing water recently made is most en-
couraging in its result iiiasmuch as it
shows a complete absence of bacteria
coli, j. e. sewage bacteria This change
in the character OF the water is due
doubtless to the fact that in the early
spring the melting Of snow and the
consequent running into the reservoir
Of much surface water carries with it
the contents of two barnyards which
are situated within the watershed of
the reservoirs. The fact that the sew
age bacteria is absent in the latest
sample examined is considered as proof
positive that no serious results are to
be anticipated from this occasional
unpleasant washing Of barnyards.

SzoO,ooO For Roads.

Speaking of the work of the Alaska road commission, Major Richardson said, in an interview al Sea tile:
 As far as possible, the people of Alaska will be consulted abou. their wis, es in the matter. We shall take up the work systematic ally. l estimate that within the coming twelve months the board should have at least $2OO.O0O to expend in opening new territory by means of wagon roads and trails and in improving those already in existence
 Under the law 70 per cent of the money collected in taxes out side of incorporated cities and towns shall he returned to Alaska to be used in road building. This building will, as far d practicable. be of a permanent character. While tine work will not be for merely local benefit, as far as possible the districts that have contributed most largely to the fund will be given tine best attention, providing roads and trails are needed. The work of the commission is prin- cipally tod;strihute the fund wisely and to the best advantage" Headqaar,ers of the board will he established in Skagway immed- lately upon the arrival of Ma for Richardson there. The board will then gather all, possible data re- quirelpents of the district.

Suing Ellamar Company.

A suit for $25O,OOO has been in stituted in the superior court nj Seattle, by F. c. Lawrence against !. D. Meenach and the Ellamar Mining company. in which it i. claimed that the plaintiff was de- fra uded of neteen-twentieths oi his interest in the holdings of the company in the Prince William sound district, of Alaska.
 Lawrence asserts that previous to the organization of the company, in 1901, he owned one-fifth inter in the Gladhaugh, Copper King, Copper Queen, Convict and Solo quartz claims, and that he put this into the hands of Meenach as or ganizer, taking in return contract under which he was to receive 100000 shares out of a capitaliza- tion of half million.
 After this, according to the com plaint, Meenach went east and en- listed capital in the company among others that oi John Lowber Welsh, of Philadelphia. When he returned the organization was com pleted on a basis oi $l0,OOO,OO in capital stock, and 100, ,OCO was ten dered to Lawrence as his share, thus reducing his holdings from One-iifth, which he claimed, to one- one hundredth.
 Assertions are also made that the present officers are converting the profits of the company 10 their own use. and that Z50,O0O worth of ore has been sold ard not accounted for.
 The complaint demands either 100000 shares of stock or $25O- UDO in cash. Harrison Bostwick his attorney, states that the prop er,y k at present worth about S1,- 000,0o0.

AbaIe Nuisance

For the past week the committee on sewers have been investigating the condition oi the creek running from the St. Elias under the post office and Horseshoe buildings to the beach, and have decided that it Is q menace 10 lie public health to allow the dumping of all kinds of refuse into the stream. As con sequence they have ordered notices served on all persons maintaining toilets over the creek tC have them removed. The damming of the stream to secure water for the fire wells causes the water to stand stagnant, and the accumulation of filth resulting is liable to cause contagion.
