Doings At Petersburg

Last Saturdays steamer brought
north j. P. Jolly, the insurance
adjuster for the companies sustain
ing losses in the recent fire at Pet
ersburg, who, as he was going
south on the return trip of the
same boat, informed the Sentinel
he was satisfied that there would
be no delay in paying the losses.
As announced in last weeks Sen
tinel the work of erecting the new
buildings to take the place of those
destroyed is under way, though
retarded badly by the lack of suit
able building material.
J. P. Miller. who was elected
municipal magistrate by the Perers-

pointed United States Commission

of office and qualified recently.
The next move on the part of those
interested in law and order will be
to get some kind of a Jail building
erected. At this time there is no
way of holding prisoners.
Rasmus Enge is erecting a res
taurant and rooming house across
the street from his residence.

New Jail For Wrangell

is to be hoped that the follow
ing, appearing in a recent issue of
the Juneau Dispatch, is true.
"Wrapgell is to have a new U.
S. Jail building. During the visit
of Attorney General Wickersham
at Wrangell, he inspected the old
building and promptly decided that
it was too old for further use"
If there is public building in
the whole of the district that is in
worse shape than the United States
Jail at this place, this paper has
still to hear of it. The thanks of
this locality are due the Attorney
General for his decision in this re-
spect.
