SUSPENDED SENTENCE

y. f. Adcock is or has been rent
ing cabin from L. H. O. Vaudin,
and Naudin claims that the rent has
not been forthcoming for the past
year For that reason the owner of
the cabin presented himself Thurs
day and demanded that the delin-
quent tenant vacate the premises.
This modest demand was refused
and Mr.. Naudin proceeded to enforce
his desires with a legal notice to va
cate. This SO angered the peaceful oc-
cupant that he forgot his best man
ners and grabbed a gun which was
sitting in a handy place for use.
Naudin, being noted for his bravery
proceeded to grab the gun and crap,
pie with the owner thereof, and in
the general melee several blows were
administered TO someone or some
two of them.
Mr.. Vaudin then swore out a war
rant and the bad gunman was ar
rested. At the hearing before Mag

and suspended sentence.

made, and suit was entered t force

that he was damaged to The extent
Of several hundred dollars in the

of the manager of the company to

Mr.. Hainzinger testified that it

ears OF the dead animal. and that in

TOWARD
FAIRBANKS FOR
DEvELOPM

An agent representing Joe Boyle.
or more correctly stated the Cana.
dian-Klondike Mining company, has
been in the camp for the past month
for the purpose cf looking over the
field with view of getting hold OF
desirable dredging propositions in
this district. and II the same can be
done to furnish power for their
own holdings as we'll as others in
the camp at more reasonable rate
than can possibly be hoped for un-
der the present system.
The agent states that it is the
hope Ct the company to harness every
district in which gold has been found
between Fairbanks and Dawson. and
to furnish all corners with all the
power and Eight they may wish. II
Is the intention of the company to
generate the power for this extern
sive enterprise on the klondike
1870 ct 'i' Piiii owned anu
operated by the company. with an
auxiliary plant located on Ceal creek
Should the plans ever reach the point
of completion it is the hope of the
company to dredge all the low-grade
ground between the two points.
The agent makes the statement
that should the company be able to
put the scheme through every stamp
mill and mining outfit along the
route would be able to secure their
power for at least 60 per cent less
than the present cost
The agent thinks he will have no
difficulty in obtaining ground suffi-
cient to justify the company in going
to the enormous expense that will be
necessary. and that the entrance of
the company will be only a matter
Of time; in fact he expects that
plans will be perfected within the
next couple months which will be
given general publicity.

to the statement of the manager
was not the success it was hoped
for and expected. 1t is reported
that in the test ton of coal went
just about as far and did just about
as much work as a cord of wood.
but there was an excuse for this
inasmuch as the locomotives are
not fitted up for the consumption of
coal and therefore could not get the
best results.
