CITIZENS MILL IS
 MPROYED

Work is now in hand which will materially increase the usefulness of the local stamp mill
 It is intended to increase the weight of the stamps to 500 pounds apiece, and also to increase the speed, which a, present is made quate.
 In addition to this a concentrat- ing table will be added to the plant These various improvements. which are being undertaken by Brum- baugh, Hamilton X Kellogg. are expected to almost treble the ca pacity of the mill, and enable it to cope in q speedy and efficient man ner with any trial Crushings that may be entrusted to 1t.
 A consignment of rock will short ly arrive from Summerset & Me Carty to be treated at the mill, and the addition ot the concentrating table will doubtless lead to further business in the future.

THAT DOC-CATCHER
 ACA|N

The policeman is not the only person whose life is not a happy one, II we are to believe the plaint of Dog-Catcher Day.
 At last nights council meeting Chief Of Police Conway asked the councillors to dispense with the services of the present dog and to appoint another man in his stead. The chief detailed his cause for complaint, saying that the dog catcher had caused considerable trouble and that his assistant was anything but model citizen. Alter a motion had been made to discharge Day, that individual was allowed to state his case, which he did with considerable feeling. h. deed his heartrending story of the trials of a dog-snatcher almost had
 the effect of causing the susceptible councillors to indulge i'll tears. In any case his appea! was very efec- tive, as the councillors reconsidered the matter, and eventually decided
 10 give Day a chance to do better. His assistant, who is evidently worthless, will have to look for an other pound, as the chiet oi police will have none of him.
 In future the poundmaster will report to the chief of police daily, either personally or by proxy.

High Water Caused Great

GnIeSs Steps are Taken 10 Protect L0sar Portion of Front Street Our CVaten- p0TarieS WiII he Washed Out to Bgf- ing Sea, Which Would b9 Pity

The recent high water played havoc with the banks of the river, especially that portion west of Cu~h- man street n some places several feet of the .e.t bank Of the river have caved in, and much more is tn danger of doing 90 unless i'm mediate steps De taken to p"eyentit.
 This is not Q matter which should lTouse jealous;es. IT the long run every ratepayeT is more CT less af- fected. Ef no attempt be made to control the river, sooner or later the whole e that portion of Front street will disappear, and a valuable source O: taxation will be lost to he city.
 For that reason, if for TO other. t is 3 public matter and the coun- oil cannot go far wrong if they take steps to prevent further damage to The banks q the point mentioned.
 II is fac! which can be vouched for by any cldtilner that at one lime thc river tank extended many feet beyond the present line. and further less in this direction should De prevented f possible.
 II the councillors do rot feel jus ided in incurring the whole Of the expense at the present time. the 1es;dent9 most affected might be sske3 to agree 10 pro rata assess neut for the balance; but from our viewpoint it is a q4cstion which affects the whole city, and the ex- pense connected herewith should De met out of the public purse, and, f necessary by g 9psc.al assess ncnt.
 From ali appearances another dood .s imminent, and it would be veil to commence work at once. if any action ct all is intended to be ,aken in this matter.

BARGAIN HUNTERS

It is an axiom that women spend nine-tenths of what men earn - principally at bargain sales; and judging by the enor- nous crowd that visited a local store on Tuesday last, the pull chritudinous peaches who dom mate the city of Fairbanks ard all that therein is, are no eX- ception to the rule.
 The spectacle of several hun dred frantic women struggling to be first at a tive-cent counter is enough to strike terror into the bravest male heart. Some of the ladies got black eyes and bruised arms, some lost a few locks of (their own) hair, others got off with a few scratches. That mattered little, however. No gains without pains, was the motto of the ladies, so they stuck to their task like heroines. And they were all rewarded. Scarcely a bargain-hunter but what got something she didn t Want-and cheap, too.
 Then there was the excite ment, which was gratis.
 They weren't over scrupulous, either, some of the ladies. One visitor envied another's hat, The hat was not for sale-in fact it was on the owners head This did not deter the other daughter of Eve from snatching it and making the clerk an offer of S1.95 for the same. She was a good judge, too, for, if we are to believe the unfortunate vic tim, the hat cost just S35.
 For hours after the sale start ed perspiring females could be seen emerging from the store, loaded to the ears with kimonos,

TAROD IS kOT
 VERY COOD

StaInpeders who returned on she Tana do not give a very sCCd account of the IditarOd camp, but as tlley were only on the ground 6 few hours and did aot have time to visit the creeks their opinion does not count for a great deal
 It was stated that the camp is already badly overdone, and t is not expected that it will be able to support more than 1900 at the outside
 The reports of rich finds which arrived here during March and April do not seem to have been correct, and those who have spent the winter in the camp seem to know little about them.
 There was serious grub shortage in the camp until the arrival of the Tanana, and it is said that the winter weather was very severe, with deep SHOW and high winds.
 The country is covered with townsites, but the principal To- cation seems to be near Gregg Stewards post, which is known as Iditarod city.
 It is stated that the N. c. will eonduct their business in a barge store for the present, as 1t is believed they will eventual 1y locate some no miles lower down, at a place called Bubayo City.
 Meals are S1.5O. wood is $50 a ocrd. and hunks S1.50 each. Teamsters were charging as high as S1O an hour. There is said to be shortage of lumber, bas by this time some of the big scows loaded with lumber

 During the location of the lots a wide-awake person discovered a fraction between two of the best lots. He erected a tent and opened up q fish market" with two or three fish. His neigh. bors were considerably annoyed at his presence, and sought to buy him off. They offered him as high as S125o, but without avail. Nope, gentlemen, he said, I've got my homestake here, and intend to stick to it. f

 IL is said that the O'Malley lay on Flat creek has been sold for Sl2, 900, and Pat O'Gonnor and Roy Stevens purchased u tWO-thirds interest in claim on Black creek for 500.
 E. Banks, who went to the Iditarod wth the stampeders, has written a letter to B. Koeg ley, wherein he says tkat in his opinion the camp will be good one. As he expresses it there are lot of soreheads who are knocking the camp Mir Banks says that Flat is undoubtedly good, that Otter is fair and Will low is good. He also says that good prospects have been found on Black creek. \ lot of build ing is going on in Iditarod city, and tue writer Of the letter pre- dicted good times for the new town, ;pt least for this season.
