COUNCIL MEETS
 WITHOUT MAYOR

Last evening the honorable city council of the city of skagway met n regular session. The meeting was distinguished by the presence Of all the members with the excep- tiou of the Mayor, who is temper arlly absent iu Juneau. In his ab- seuce, Dr. Brawand preserved order and dignity as president, pro tem.
 After listening to the reading ot the minutes by Clerk Mckay, the council received the report of the school board which was found satis- factory, and accepted in due form. The school board needed three hun dred dollars, and it being shown that they were entitled to 1t for the purpose of conducting the Gt- fairs of education in Skagway. the council very graciously signed a warrant for that amount
 Another report which was re- celyed with a marked degree Of sat isfaction was the report Of Treas urer Lynch which showed that the municipality had fund on hand of S6,I22.56, up to the first of Febru- ary, 1913.
 There were some local bills that needed paving. and after the audit ing committee had ok'd them they were paid. The total amount being the modest sum of SS41lO.
 Councilman Friedenthal then re- ported that the sixteenth street bridge, crossing the silyery Skag- way, was unsafe and would but a short time longer sustain the vol tune of traffic passing over it. This brought out some discussion and was referred to the committee on public improvement who have the matter in hand. The committee states that as soon as the river breaks up, the structural engineers will begin at once the work Of mak- ing necessary repairs.
 After the routine work was fin- ished. the council drifted into phil autEropic economics and discussed the care Of itinerant poor. As there has never been many poor people in Skagway, the question found many of the members unprepared to solve it right off the reel. But with the customary concentration Of thought which characterizes the deliberations of this civic body. they evolved the simple theory that it was plainly the duty Of the government to take care of travel CTS who become stranded in this city. or any other city Of Alaska Skagway IS willing to taSe care of her own poor, and does SO, but the council thinks the taxpayers should not be burdened with the sorrows of outsiders.

WOODMEN ENJOYED A
BANQUET LAST NIGHT
Number Of Visitors We're
Present

Assembled in Americas yesterday
we're nearly a score of representatives
of the Woodmen of the World in Geor-
gia, who came as guests of Mr. Newton
Phillips, of Atlanta, state manager of
| the Woodmen of the World, and who
were his guests at O'Clock dinner
served at the Windsor hotel last night
an occasion greatly enjoyed. Several
officers of Americus camp, No. 2O2,
were guests of Mr.. Phillips, the other
gentlemen being state organizers for
the order and representing many Of
the principal cities where w. o. w.
camps are established.
Among the energetic w. o. w. Work.
ers present was Mr.. W. H. Woodruff,
who has recently located in Americus
as state organizer, and who has add
ed more than one hundred members to
Americas camp, No. 2O2, recently. Mr..
Woodruff comes from Alabama, where
for ten years he was state organizer
for the order
Following the dinner last evening,
State Manager Phillips and his guests
attended a meeting of the local camp
and witnessed the initiation of a dozen
new members. Addresses were made
by members prominent in the work.
An effort will be made to have the
state convention of Woodmen of the
World hold its annual meeting in
Americas next year

NO BOXES TO SPARE
At LOCAL POSTOFFICE
Growth Of City Shown in
This Way

Il did not expect to be able to find a
vacant dwelling when | came with my
family TO Americas to reside last
week, nor have found one yet" said
a gentleman yesterday, in speaking of
conditions here, but the real surprise
awaited me when | tried to rent A
lock box in the postoffice, and found
not an empty one there. No house 60
live in, and no box for my mall things
do really look a little crowded here, ;,
re said But he is going to stay in
Americas, for he likes this hustling
city.
Postmaster Mitchell pronounced as
true the assertion that there was not
vacant lock box in the postofffce. Not
only is every one of the $40 boxes
there rented, but many APPLICANTS are
on the waiting list" for boxes, as soon
as they can be had.
This fact in itself points to the com
Lercial growth of Americas. In the
lew postoffce, completed only three or
four years ago, there are one hundred
more lock boxes than were in the for
mer office building. And this. too,
with a city and rural mail delivery
Wherewith to dispose of mail matter.
L seems only a question of short time
before additional facilities will have
to be provided there to the end of ex-
Ircditing business and meeting require.
