4 FEW HAPPENINGS
 AT GEORGETOWN

Carrying q large bundle of news un- der his arm, Frank Hall, formerly of Fairbanks and Dome, arrived Tuesday from Georgetown, where he has been ruminating for some weeks, and where they have now settled down for the winter to the peaceful perusal of joys that are and are not.
 Frank says there are about 75 people in town now, as all the loose footed ones have scattered to the hills, and the prospecting game is going on at d merry rate. All up and down the river they are punching holes in the ground and although nothing start ling has developed they are finding en- couragement to keep them merrily at t.
 Cache creek is showing up fine pros poets, Wander Pool on Dorothy has just started & hole The prospects on Beaver are getting better all the time, as are also those on Willow. Julian looks more promising as the work pro gresses.
 He told about the improvement in the condition of Frank Wallace, and re- ferred to the recent assault case be- tween two Slavonians tried before Con- missioner Reavey. It appears that one accused the other of drawing 8 gun over lot trouble, but on the trial this was proven a mere figment of the i'm agination. Following the verdict of the jury, Judge Heavey soaked the com paining witness for about $75 costs because he had brought the charge out of pure malice.
 Miss Agnes Murray and the Nelson brothers have opened up 8 fine, new roadhouse. MT. and Mrs. F. E. Woitke are running the Northern hotel and Mr. and Mrs. Ed Wilkinson are running the Pioneer.
 There are numbers of travellers on their way over, and roadhouses along the line and in Georgetown will need quantities of provisions to supply the demand.
 Fred Melius, who staked sawmill site for B. H. &.K. of this city, is work ing for the Kuskokwim Commercial Co., and is one of the busiest individuals in town.
 Georgetown offers no inducement for employment or livelihood just now and will not until the opening activities of the spring.

Acklan, an old timer of the North and the founder of the Acklan Ditch of Dawson, afterwards sold to Guggenheims, was pronounced insane Tuesday afternoon, and is now held in the Federal jail here, pending his de- parturs for the detention hospital at Fairbanks, or Nit. Tabor sanitarium in Washington.
 During the hearing Dr. Wortman, Mrs Sylvia Garken, w. s. Hunsacker, H. c. Holbrook were examined on the part of the government, and from their testimony it was concluded that the man had reached point in his mental disability where it was no longer safe leave him at large.

FRANK WALLACE IS
 SHOWING IMPROVEMENT !

According to the latest reports re- ceived from Georgetown, Frank Wal lace, who was mixed up in an acciden- tal killing on the North Fork of Gsorge river some time ago, and who was sup posed to be breeding over the accident until it was feared he was losing his mind, is now taking a new interest in life and is rapidly on his way to re- covery.
 It was reported here that Frank was already admitted to be insane, but this appears not to be the case, and his friends are glad to report that all signs of apathy are disappearing. He is working there now, and is cheerfully cognizaut of all that is going on about him, in great contrast to the depression of a few weeks ago.

THEY WOULD LIKE
 SOMETHING TO READ

The winter joys of opening a new camp may be all right if you see them in play, but when it gets down to the real thing, there are certain disal- lusionments, which are not all to the liking, except to the seasoned old-timer who has been up against it so long that he misses the discomforts.
 Take for instance Georgetown. They have lively community over there, but there are lots of things they are missing sorely. They have no reading matter. and in the absence of the printed word they go out and run around in circles or pitch horseshoes in front of the village blacksmith shop, that is, providing they are not short of horseshoes.
 There are many other things they are short besides magazines, and books, articles that fill & great want in the long winter nights. Of the articles in the following list, it would seem that mushers might profit by taking small quantities as side issue, providing they can be secured here. Here is a partial list of what they are needing over there: Butter, lard, spices, mitts, rubbers, tobaccos moccasins, canned meats, bacon, ham, brown beans, soap, maple syrup, saw files, suspenders, lamps and wicks, tacks, brooms, dried fruits, candies, peanuts, chewing gum, cheese cloth, Things, locks, hinges screws, ax handles, lanterns, rolled oats, rice, corn meal, reading matter and may be playing cards.

LIBERAL REWARD
 FOR TIE ANSWER

The Bunkhouse Lyceun of Flat has put the following proposition up to us for answer as they were unable to de- eide tho momentous question at the ir last meeting. We find ourselves in al most the same position that Solomon is, therefore we turn it over to our readers, who can cake a crack at it if they want to, Answ CTS may be for warded to the Lyceum or to this paper, and the one sending in the best solu- tion for SOlomon's predicament will be given hand-painted picture of Sj- wash on souvenir postal card Here's the puzzle:
 Solomon, with his bride, is taking a honeymoon trip in an automobile. As they start down a steep hill the chain snaps and the emergency brake will not work, Solomon can steer the automo- bile, but can not stop it. Rounding a sharr curve, where there is a wall on one side and u precipice on the other, he meets two-horse carriage, in which is an elderly couple. Between the car riage and the wall, where he might otherwise pass, is nurse with a child in & baby carriage. Solomon has ten seconds in which to decide.
 What should Solomon do?"
 T. Should he steer the automobile over 4he precipice, killing the bride he promised to protect and himself?
 "2. Should he run down the nurse and child?
 B. Should he dash into the carriage in which are the elderly couple and thus save his bride, himself, and the nurse and child?
 What should Solomon do, and why?"

THEY HAD TURKEY,
 BUT TWAS BY PROXY

In a communication received from Georgetown last week IS given an in teresting account of a Thanksgiving dinner served at the Hotel Northern in that city by Mrs, F. E. Woitke, where the guests were allowed to tie into roast pig and apple sauce, which is a sublime diversion, according to Charles Lamb.
 Having announced her dinner, Mrs. Woitke forestalled the questions of anxious ones who were beginning to get curious about the turkey. She therefore drew, in free hand, the picture of pig getting outside of the last turkey in Georgetown. The pig having got the turkey, it became nec- essary to get the pig-hence the big roast pig and the apple 'sass" on the grooming board.
 There were about 30 people gathered about, and all were loud in their praises of the hostess ability in the culinary department. Some of those who took part in the dinner were as fol- lows:
 Mir, and Mrs. H. E. St. George, J, G.. Brown, J. Campbell, o. Steiner, Ben Haster B. Middleton, l.. Bendcrljn, A. Amodt, A. Johnson, H. Bader, Charles Knutson, F. c. Finn, Geo. L.

DIE ON TEXAS RACE RIOT
Eighteen Blacks and Three Whites Are
Killed In Pitched Battle
Near Socum.

Palestine, Tex.-Following pitched
battle between the negro farmers OF
this section in which at least 500
blacks took part and three companies
of state militia from Houston and Gal
weston and detachment of state
rangers fought for hours and, it Is
said, that IS negroes have been
killed and the bodies of three white
men are dying in an improvised
morgue in the little town awaiting
the arrival of undertakers from Hous-
ton.
Beginning Friday afternoon the race
riot between the negroes and whites
waged continuously until Sunday
night.
The rioting began near the village
of Slocum. Several reasons are as
signed as the cause of the racial feel
ing. First, the refusal of negro to
pay an obligation for which white
farmer stood sponsor.
Later came reports of secret meet
ings among the negroes and an al
legged confession of negro that the
murder of the man in question, James
Spurger. and his family was planned.
The situation reached a climax, how
ever. when a negro was discovered
advancing on Spurger from the rear,
armed with shotgun. He was
trailed for some distance and shot by
a posse when he refused to surrender.

by the coroner's jury Friday. The
Mouon president was shot with his
own revolver, held in his own hand.
the verdict reads, but whether acct
dentally or with suicidal intent is not
specified The jury said the former
explanation was the less probable.
The finding of the jurors is described
as IAN open suicide verdict"
The verdict was reached after a
three hours session and after much
lively debate in the jury room.
Although none of the jurors would
talk about their action, it was said
that three held out for verdict of
suicide and the others for one of ac-
cidental shooting, and that the open
verdict returned was compromise,
to break the deadlock.
That the insurance companies will
contest the payment of policies is said
to be assured, and 1t is declared that
relatives of the slain railroad presi-
collect the insurance
No representative of the Rawn fam
lily was present when the jury's find
ings were made public.
The general consensus of opinion
among those present at the close OF
the inquest was that the jury had
taken the only course open to it.
