CASSA FL CARO-THE
 NEW HOME OF J. B. CAIRO

One of the most comfortable homes in Alaska is the new residence erect ed on the country estate of Jules B. Caro, facing the Salmon creek govern ment road near the Burridge home stead. The house is two story and of modern construction in every respect. The lower floor contains a fine, large living room with hardwood maple floor and a fireplace of ample propor- tions; a dining room, kitchen and bath. A large broad veranada with a fine sweep of Gastineau channel faces the road.
 The upper floor is divided into four compact, yet roomy bed chambers, each of which has built-in clothes clos cts that cedar-lined and moth-proof. All of the rooms have nice views.
 The house occupies a plot of ground about two hundred feet square. The soil is good and well-watered from springs on the mountainsides some distance away. The water supply for the home comes from those same springs. Some of the trees have been left standing, affording both beauty and usefulness to the place.
 The house was designed and the grounds planned by Mrs. Caro-

STILL NO QUORUM
 TO DO BUSINESS
O-O

The City Council met last night pur- suant to the adjourned meeting of last Friday night, but the same predica- ment confronted the body as on the regular meeting night-there was not a quorum present. There has been so much business of extreme urgency on the par of members concerning their own private matters that attendance was impossible-so of the body be- ing called out of town. Last nights meeting adjourned subject to the call of Mayor Carter, which call will un- doubtedly be issued as soon as a quor- um can be gotten together.
 There is much business of import ance now pending, some of it is ready for action now and some of it will re- quire more time. There is a building oardinance pending, also an ordinance providing plumbing and sewerage regulations.
 There is also the matter of holding a joint session with the school board for the purpose of letting the contract for the erection of the new school building. This is one of the things that will receive prompt and speedy action.
 There is a committee report due on the matter of central fire alarm sys- tenn. This will also undoubtedly re- ceive prompt attention.
 There is a committee report due on the petition for a waterfront street from the Pacific Coast dock along the tidefiats to the site of the electric light plant just beyond Aux village. Re gently there has been so much talk of extending the thoroughfare along the waterfront to Franklin street near the City dock that some of the mem bers of the council think the original plan may be modified so as to pro- vide a more extended improvement.

 Counsel Clash Over Admission of Tes-
 timony.
 District Attorney John Rustgard and Senator s. H. Piles clashed yesterday afternoon over the introduction of the testimony of Tony A.

The defense proved that he had been paid off by the gov ernment and provided with funds to carry him back to Chicago, where he came from. Senator Piles then asked that Tubbs' testimony given at the coroner's inquest be introduced in ev idence. He said that the defense had right to have this mans testimony as it had been proved that he was ar eyewitness to the shooting, and saw the struggle between the men. He ac cused the prosecution of trying to sup press his testimony. He said that the defense had the right to presume that the man would be here to testify be cause his name was endorsed on the indictment, and that now the only way that it could be secured was to intro duce the testimony of the man as il was sworn to at the coroner's inquest

This morning, for the first time in fifteen years, a boat, the Princess Sophia, made an unsuccessful effort to land at Moores wharf. After three attempts the boat was com pelled to steam out into and across the bay to the mouth of Burro creek to await favorable condition of wind and tide to dock. J!
 The peculiar formation of the Skagway harbor, which is of horse shoe shape, with abrupt sloptng banks, taken in connection with the extreme high tide and the heavy gale blowing at the time, were the Muses of the non-success of the
