ALL FLAT CITY PRIES
 OPEN TIE CONNOLLY

Accompanied by many burst of song which gurgled like that stirring ballad sung down where the Wurtsburger flows, the Connolly unlocked the doors of its thirst station at Flat City last Wednesday night and pulled the spout down. Every through freight, extra. limited and special put little sand on the tracks right in front of the chutes while the crews got of 10 coal up and fill the tank. The semaphore was hung up all the time, and as the lights were changing constantly no one cared to take chance about going on, so de- cded to remain for further orders. Finding his job futile endeavor, the chief dispatcher quit the desk and came in to buy the drinks for the house.
 It has been privilege to write about the opening of good many booze ba- ZarS this last summer and fall, but they do say that this one had them all bea- ten to cold frappe when it came to genuine fun and unmarred enjoyment. It was more like a smoker, where a bunch of jolly Bohemians had gathered to let off steam. They tipped a few over and then burst into song like spontaneous combustion, while Jack Connolly Himself tickled the horse teeth and simply beat the eternal tar out of the upright grand.
 erybody tried to sing and since it was a give and take in the vocal line, nobody got sore if you stubbed your toe on note and fell off the key. Those who couldn't sing tried to dance while the raftcrs rattled and the bar tenders ran around in circles.
 Just as the excitement was at it's height, one Svenska feller he came in and jumped on the big drum stove with his rubber shoes, not knowing or car ing cuss where he was. He wasn't very cold when he first came in, but when his feet began to burn and he discovered what he was:up against, he cut loose one large Scandinavian war whoop and jumped clean over the head of man five feet away. Yes, it was a gladsome time, and there will long be pleasing memories of the Connolly's first night.

FEW OF THE PIONEERS

A history of the town of Flat would of necessity have to start with Frank Stanley, proprietor of the Stanley house; also it would be incumbent to mention him occasionally as the work progressed and then at the finish 8 whole chapter night be devoted to him. Frank started the town of Flat on June ! all by his lonely, with roadhouse and store, and, when he got chance, built footbridge across Otter creek. Most of the mushers preferred to swim, however, hoping to dispose of some of the semi-liquid macadam they had ab- sorbed on the voyage from Iditarod. By the time M.nley & Aitken had begun to show up Flat creek to the doubting ones, Stanley's roadhouse was alto gether inadequate for the rush of busi- ness, so Frank started to enlarge the premises and has been building ever since until the little roadhouse has de- veloped inty first-class hotel, splen- olel L"O-StOtS loS Dbi OlLS, --AOO icols ! accommodating 50 guests. His commo- dious dining-room and office is freely given for dances and social entertain ments. In connection with the hotel is stabling for 20 head of stock in one of the finest barns ever built in the North, and you don't hear the malamutes put ting up any howl about their sleeping quarters.
 Within the town limits the thorough fare leading up Flat creek is appropri- ately named Gold street, and between Second and Third avenues, on the left limit of that paystreak, Mrs. Swanson's s Grand hotel is located. The popularity of the landlady and excellence of the cuisine is daily attested by the crowd of boarders who regularly respond to tho sound of the dinner bell
 In the same building, and run by one of the proprietors of the Grand hotel, is the cigarstore and pool room of Nels Glantz, resort for many who delight In putting in few hours of recreation to the best possible advantage.
 Across the street is Mrs. Crawford's $ notion store and lodging house, then Drs. Carter and Spaulding's drug store and office. The fact that there is nc

Flat City, Nov. f, 1910.
 As striking instance Of what can be quietly and quickly accomplished by earnest endeavor, the town of Flat at the mouth of the creek Of fthat name fur nishes an example worthy of emulation. Like Eldorado creek, in the klondike camp, Flat was passed up by the wise ones amongst last years stampeders, to be later banned and damned by the CO., terie of pessimistic old sourdoughs who came here on the first boats this sea son. While these authorities (on solo games) were bawling out the camp, mon who are still equipped with red blood and ambition, were putting their belief in the creeks to the infallible test of the pan, with results which fully justified their faith. Fortunately, the prospectors of the Yukon and Alaska have amongst them men of capital and sound judgment who are practical min CTS and always ready to develop pros pect in the quickest and most efficient manner possible.
 Flat creek which few months ago was grudgingly credited with having few rich spots, through persistent ef- fort now shows continuous paystreak extending over the divide, on the very top of which "Caribou Bill" Deetering has mined successfully for part of the season. From there down Happy and Willow creeks the golden stream has been traced for miles, and who shall say in view Of what has developed in all the other camps in the North, that all the pay has been located Say, rather, that at this early stage defining the deposits of auriferous gravels has just begun.

WHAT PLAYERS ARE DOING

Tommy McSmart and Ollie Bourette will furnish the music for the Fire mans bali which will be held at Stan- ley's Saturday night.
 Fred Carter is still confined to his bed as the result of the accident which befell him three weeks ago. He is feel ing quite cheerful however, and ex- poets to be able to get up in few days.
 Angus Mcdonald, who has been un- der the care of Mrs. Galbraith for some time, is now recovering from a severe attack of typhoid fever and is able to get around again.
 MT. Howard, the popular host of the Willow creek roadhouse, paid us q brief visit on his way to Iditarod. He says travel toward the Kuskokwim has as- sumed stampede proportions since the late snowfall.
 Jim Ryan is wearing a kind of troubled expression these days. Jim has been pounding over the mud and niggerheads all summer and got kind of used to it, but the snow has filled up all the old familiar chuck holes and the sled slips along so speedily now that his schedule is all upset.
 Bennett James is one of the latest arrivals in Flat. He is building a home for himself from which he will direct operations on his mining property.
 Hearing glowing reports of the good hunting over on the Ku5kokwim side, Charley Worden passed through here the other day enroute for that favored section. His equipment consisted of 2 and several gunny sacks, the heavy artillery following on q freight team which will be used to transport the moose, bear, caribou, etc., back to the zone of meatless meat markets.
 The committee on fire protection ap- pointed by Chairman Ed Rusk at the citizens meeting Q week ago soon got down to business and have ordered a plentiful supply of extinguishers from Iditarod, and engaged Fred Raap as fire chief. Mir. Raap will devote his entire time and attention to his duties and will have the hearty cooperation of all his towns people in their united efforts to guard against fires.
 Keys and Meahan stage line adds some class to the route it traverSes, and Phil is there with the ribbons to the delight of his passengers who en- joy the exhilarating effects of being whirled at top speed around the curves near this end of the line.
 Jack Connollys grand opening was the leading feature of the weeks social events and was enjoyed by large, noisy, good natured crowd.
 "Line Busy" is the all too frequent response of central, and it looks as if Henry Weir will have to string another wire to Flat in the near future.
 Having got most of the loose change in Iditarod safely slowed away, T. A. Cleveland the hustling manager of the Clark Lumber Co.,, paid visit to Flat during the week on business for his firm.
 Anderson Bros. and the tin shop people have been busy here during the week in their respective lines.

INDUSTRIOUS FLAT CITY

The town of Flat stands today mop- ument to this belief, for rich or poor, the inhabitants are showing their opti mstic spirit by industriously building to meet present needs and future re- quirements.
 The few tents of the summer season have been replaced by substantial buildings, and none too soon, for hotels and lodging houses have been taxed to their utmost capacity during the past couple of weeks, stampeders on their way to and from the Kuskokwim strikes making 8 stopping place before going into the hills, or when returning after month or so of siwashing it, the com forts of civilization are eagerly appre- ciated.
 It is all very fine for Simple-life fad dists to enthuse over the delights of camping, where with wealth at com mand they may hire horses and guides and "cut out the rough stuff" them selves, but you don't notice any of them worrying about cold tub or the de- lights of early rising if they have been mushing all day with their little outfit on their back or dragging sled by the back of the neck. Oh, no; they can curl up at daybreak and let the other fellow get busy with the Java and flap jacks. Nothin' doin' in the bath busi- ness then. 'Wait till we get to Shy
