NEW HELLO" BOOK.

The telephone department this week
delivered to subscribers new book.
Thanks to the efficiency of Mr. Waltz
there are few errors in the book,
those in previous issues being due
to the incompentency of the misft
who previously superintended the local
telephone department. 1t is well
gotten up book, but, we belive, no
better than would the Beacon Light
have done had the council used real
business acumen and let the job go
to the lowest bidder.

LISTENED TO RETURNS.

The election returns were received
at the G. A. X. hall Tuesday night,
where big crowd was gathered until
a late hour. The service was poor
for the money paid for it and the
bulletins were few and far between.
However, what was received was
pleasing to most Of the crowd. The
job of counting the ballots was a slow
one on account of the many split
tickets and complete returns from
the wards in the city were not re-
ceived until a late hour.

The Dora Arrives

The steamship Dora tied up to the dock about 3:3O yesterday afternoon. The Dora encountered some very rough weather on this trip. She made Iiamna on the way down, but owing to bad weather had to pass that port .on her return. On account of the heavy seas Coal bay could not be made on either trip. This means that no mail could be sent to or received from Nushagak.
 There were on the Dora about thir- ty-fve fishermen from Cnga and Sand Point who, as the fishing season is dull in the summer, are on their way to Valdez and other ports in search of work.
 Judge DriMcId, United Satoes com missioner from Cnga came in on the Dora and is spending a few days in Seward. He will go to Valdez on the next boat Co attend to some business, and be ready to make the return trip to Cuga on the Dora next month.
 Marshal l.. L Bowers from Kodiak brought in on the DorJa party charged with making am assault upon young native. He is taking him, together with some witnesses. tO Valdez to be held for the grand jury.

A Remarkable Dinner

The news from St. Petersburg that some Russian scientists have been making meal off the flesh of 100000 year old mammoth recalls remarka- ble dinner given by Brussels antiqua- ry named Goebel.
 "At the dinner" said one of the guests, "I ate apples that ripened more than 1,8O0 years ago; bread made from wheat grown before the Children of Israel passed through the Red Sea, and spread with butter that was made when Elizabeth was Queen of England, and I washed down the repast with wine that was old when Colum- bus was playing barefoot with the boys of Genoa"
 The apples which formed part of the dessert were grown before Pompeii was overwhelmed; in fact they were res cued from it's ruins. The wine was re- covered from an old vault in the city of Corinth, and the wheat was found in a chamber in one of the pyramids. It is interesting to know that this an- tiouarian fare was all excellent, the fruit particularly being described as of as fine flavor as if it had just been taken from the trees.-The Sun.
