bud.
It is the intention of the owner of the
billiard parlor in this city to move his
tables to another place as soon as he
is able to secure a desirable location.

Picking up copy Of the Alaska
published at Juneau. one
day this week we were surprised to see
in it an advertisement of one of the
large Chicago cataloge houses bidding

ply illustrates the fact that these peo-
pie know the value of advertising and
are able to draw trade from the re-
hottest parts OF the country.
The members of the J. L. D. club
gave their first masquerade ball at the
Star hail Sunday evening which was
attended by large number of the
young people Of the city. The atten-
dance was better than the promoters
anticipated and the results, financial
ly and socially were correspondingly
better. The J. L. D. band was out in
the afternoon advertising the event.

the city and working at Ill rent trades

friends Of Mr.. Vogel in this city would
like to see him secure the nomination
and also the election. He is deserving
of the compliment it would mean.
