HUBBARD HOSPITAL NOTES.

The Hubbard Hospital Club had
it's usual meeting Tuesday afternoon
and was highly pleased with pro-
ceedings. Two new members, Mrs.
Reed and Mrs. Dawson, both made
very helpful remarks.
The most interesting part of the
proceedings came when DR.. Wells an
nounced that MI. VIM. Copeland,
president of Benevolent Lodge No.
81, gave for his lodge $25. His
thoughtful generosity is most COM
mendable and should and no doubt
will cause other lodges to follow the
meritOrious example.
Also Miss Fannie Miller, one of
the city teachers of San Antonio,
Tex, who raj in the city visiting
Or. Wells, gave $500. The hearts OF
Gods people r responsive to any
worthy institution.
The club is alive to every effort,
and its principle to do things rightly
or not at all is a sufficient guarantee
that it will succeed.
We + glad to note that Mrs. j
H. Hale, our efficient secretary, has
returned.
Rev. G.. B. Taylor gave one bed tt
the new hospital through the club
Our treasurer, Mrs. F. A Stewart
made a report to the club of the
money on hand which amounted Il
$12O.50. This is the effort of les
than two months.
We are now soliciting furniture
linen, dishes, etc. Any donation will
be highly appreciated by the club
The Hospital will soon be ready

Mr.. Richardson is a native Texan,
and when he first wrote to Mr.. Boyd
did not know that they had both
lived in the same city where he was
born about twenty-five years ago. He
declares that it is encouraging to a
Negro away UP there to hear these
good things of banks and banking in
stitutions controlled by his people in
the South. There are but few Ne.
groes in Alaska, and those who are
there have been luck enough with
push and energy, to make wonderful
progress.
Mr.. Richardson sent his order in for
the first copy of the Directory that
comes from the press.

Three different mining stampedes,
each distinct in character, are predict

of them is ON in the depth of this pres
ent winter. To the Iditarod placer dig
gings men are now toiling over the
snow trails in a wild chase for a
share of the undoubted riches first
found there last season Into the great
copper belt of the Chitina basin there
will be another influx of miners and
prospectors next July when the Cop

reaches the outer edge Of the district,
Still another group, the gold quartz
miners, will flock to Kenai peninsula
and the Sushitna valley as soon as the
snow has gone to follow up the recent
Moose pass and Willow creek strikes.
1t would seem then that Alaska has
finally advanced to the quartz mining
stage, and to this may be added in 1910
coal mining in the Boring river fields.
