 During the afternoon many women took advantage of the beautiful day to go up and cast their ballots and many mothers were anxious to exercise their right.

HEARD ABOUT TOWN

The Cold Storage plant which we
 buried yesterday came to life again
 this morning. and the truth will not Idown. IL seems to be a cinch that a lnew market will be installed on the arrival of the first boats, and a local expert has been escorted by certain people to install the plant when il arrives.
 There will be a new market says a fellow who is on the inside looking out but cannot say anything more at this time In fact I have said too much But don't drag my name into the mat ter, if you reopen the box you buried the new plant in yesterday. Clarence Riggs. who Is running a coffee house on Front street near Bar racks square, is having a new front put in, and will have an attractive looking place when completed The Nevada are having their place repapered and painted so as to he in line when the Corwin arrives. The Snake River Grocery is receiv-- ing several coats of fresh paint to be in style with the fresh goods that will arrive on the Corwin.
 Elwood Bruner and several other fellows who are members of "Alaska's Famous Bachelors Hall" are doing the dieting act today making ready for the big feed which will take place this evening. There is so much music about Elwood that he cannot be class ed with the savage at all. These mu- sicians are in a class by themselves.
 McManus won't break fast this evening. he is to continue his fasting until the arrival of the Corwin. and we trust it will arrive soon for "Mac" has not many holes left to "cinch up'' in his belt
 The Lobby is receiving the usual spring overhauling and will be as att tractive as ever by the time the fleet arrives.
 Now that the Corwin has been re- ported as leaving Seward people are looking seaward for indications of smoke, but until big lead appears the boatmen say they had better save their "squints"
 The water is now running over the ice on Snake river: but the ice may not commence moving seaward for several days.

TIMBER AND sToPE THE DUMP
 WHILE STEALING GOLD DUST

(Continued From Page I) covered with an old sack and that in turn covered with dirt, which was a very clever piece of work on the part of the gold dust thieves.
 AS near as can be ascertaiued the sluieing was carried on during the dark nights Of late october or early November. soon after the last boats departed for the s,ates
 IL is estimated that the robbers got away with from five hundred dollars to thousand but there is no telling for they took the heart of the dump and may have secured the cream of the gold in the same.
 No clue has been discovered and no person suspected as yet but a strict watch is being kept on certain fellows and quiet investigation is being made to try and run the guilty parties to earth.

 There was such a panic among the re- maining business firms to get chance for the advertisement on the Boys Club tag that the ladies had to half up on the small margin and receive only four names. The fortunate ones were:
 Hoy-Ratterman Furniture Co., The Best Picture show, Hood & Wheeler, Birming- ham Coca Cola Bottling Co.
 A grand scramble is expected today when the last four names will be gotten.
 It has taken the ladies behind the prof ect just four days to enlist the interest of e6 business establishments. and the hundred mark will be reached tomorrow.
 According to the plan each of the sub scrbers pays $10 for the benefit Of the Boys club, and in return gets chance to secure the advertisement on the back of the 50O00 tags to be distributed, an honorary membership In the society and recognition in the columns of the news papers.
