 Fine Hotel

Frank B. Stanley is one of the men in Hot Springs who believes that this city has future, and who is backing his judgment with money.
 This fall Mr. Stanley recognized the fact that our town was badly in need of a hotel where a wayfarer could secure good comfortable bed at req. sonable price. He also saw that there was demand here for another first class restaurant and short-order house where the hungry could get a good meal at any hour
 Without wasting any time in useless preparation, MT. Stanley started in to, fill these wants for the public, and the Stanley House is the result. This hotel is a credit to the city, and is the headquarters for scores Of miners while in town. The building is new and we'll constructed, and the furniture throughout the place is also brand new. There are nine completely furnished rooms which are equal to the best in the land, besides large and well-ven- tilated bunkroom where a man who cannot afford room can get good spring bed and mattress for lesser sum.
 The house is lighted throughout with electricity, and is insured against fire by the large safety fues that cover every stovepipe and run from the first floor through the roof.
 The restaurant is Mr. Stanley's par ticular pride, and there is where he gives his patrons, if anything, little more than the worth of their money. While everything is conducted in first-class manner and the service is the best, yet it is a place where the ordi- nary man may come and feel at home and not feel as though he ought to have on boiled shirt. The bill of fare al- ways includes everything on the mar ket, and the large trade to which MT. Stanley caters shows that his efforts to please the public have been successful. lu u tIlc uOlCl dIlU ECSUduA~ ant there is pool table and reading room down stairs where the guests may pass away few pleasant hours before retiring for the night. ., | For the benefit of the travelling pub lie, there is long line of dog stables where the musher can house his team with the assurance that they will be comfortable in the coldest weather. 1 Mir. Stanley is no stranger to the people of Alaska, having been in the country for many years. He was in business in Rampant in 1901, was on Dominion creek in the Dawson coun- ftry, mined on Cleary creek, and was steward on the larger N. N. boats for several years. He came here from Fairbanks and says that this country suits him, and that he intends to re- main as long as there is anything here.

Late Arrival
 From Fairbanks

William Lord, who spent the last summer in Innoko, arrived in the city from Fairbanks on Tuesday. On the first day out Mir. Lord slipped and hurt his back and as a- consequence was much longer on the trail than is usual having spent eight days on the trip.
 Mr. Sorp reports that at present con- ditions in Fairbanks are rather slow SIS there is not much work being done although preparations are under way for big work yet this winter, particu- larly on Goldstream, Little Eldorado and Engineer creeks.
 He says there are great many people from the upper city making preparations for trip to this city, but are waiting for more snow and that as soon as the trails are in good condition a big crowd Inf people may be expected. The roadhouses on the trail are all conducted in frst-class manner and the accommodations were much better than he anticipated.
 As soon as his back becomes stronger MrsLord will go on through to Tanana and from there to Rampant, having business in both places. After he has transacted his business in these cities he will return to this city which he says looks good to him.

cams Forced
 to Turn Back

Owing to lack of sufficient snow to properly cover the trails several big loads that started to the creeks on Tuesday were forced to unhitch the horses and return to town.
 The roads were practically bare, and required at least six inches of snow to make good sledding. With the roads in that condition it is impossible. to haul anything like good load, and the freighters say they can stand several very heavy falls of snow.

 One day last spring I was blowing for a neighbor who had a horse with sweeny, and I told him about Sloan's Liniment and he had me get bottle for him, and it cured his horse all right, and he goes off now like a colt.
 We had horse that had sweeny awfully bad and we thought 1t was never going to be any good, but we used Sloan's Liniment and 1t cured 1t up nicely. I told another neighbor about it and he said 1t was the best Liniment he ever used.

Hacks Off Head With An Axe.

What was probably the most ghast. ly and uncanny murder in the history Of Saline county occurred two miles west of Hensley late Monday after noon, when Alex Brunson, negro about 45 years old, killed Fred Al ford, another negro, aged 65 years. by chopping off his head with an axe. After seyering Affords head from the body, Brunson is alleged then to have placed the head on block and hack ed it into four pieces. According to one report of the killing, Brunson then took the brains out of the head and placed them on table, intending to feed them to his dog. After killing Afford, Brunson sat up all night over the body and was still watching the body Tuesday morning when he was arrested by Deputy Sheriff T. P Byrd and taken to Little Rock, and from there taken to Benton, where he is held on the charge of murder IL is thought by many that Brunson is in- sane. It is alleged that Brunson, after killing Afford dragged the latter's body around to the front peych of the Branson home and, standiHs on the body, crowed with joy.
