Baatz's Some Fairbanks men Fish were discussing game Story and fish and outdoor
 sports a few days ago, and this led to telling some good fish stories. One of these stories was told by Henry Baatz, proprietor of the Loop Cigar store. It was finally agreed that MT. Baatz's story was the best.
 Mir. Baatz declared that the most novel and convenient fishing pool he had ever seen was in the Yel- lowstone National park. near the place where the buffaloes are to be found In that place. he said, the government has given a license to an old Grand Army man to rent fishing poles to visitors.
 The fish pool is so close to hot spring, that man can sit between the spring and the pool. and as he catches a fish in the stream on the one side of him, he knocks it in the head to kill it, and without taking it off the hook drops it into the hot spring and keeps it there until it is cooked All this is done with out moving from his seat. It is possible for the fisher, providing he has bread and salt and butter with

 Mrs. Munson had completed her new tWO-story rOadhouse the night before we arrived there and though it was not fitted up, it was certainly nice place.
 The new roadhouse is probably about 100 yards, or perhaps more, from the site of the building that was washed away last spring. It is believed to be in a safe place, for it is on a gravel bar, while the old structure was on mud bank
 ROADHOUSES GOOD.
 'Generally speaking, the roadhouses ter of farming communities They are ideally located and near them are the fields where they raise their own hay But really the best thing to be said about the roadhouses is the quality of the food that they served.
 "One of the things that made the trip enjoyable was the fine weather. The atmosphere was SO clear when we were at Shaw creek that Mt Hayes, which was 75 miles away from us, looked as thought it might only be five miles distant. Really, l believe that with a good glass We could have been able to see sheep on the side of the mountain

 To amuse themselves during the period of deciding on future work. the family purchased the Maxwell touring car brought to Fairbanks by the N. C. Co. After samplng the roads in and about Fairbanks, they went home to Chatanika in their auto last Wednesday,

Merchants Fall sales in the Fair Are banks stores have been Outwitted attracting much atten tion, and they have brought out good story about a clever business turn made by a merchant at one time, who was being undersold by his two rivals.
 The story goes that there were three clothing stores in a row. One of the end stores had received a bis assignment of goods from fire sale and was selling them far below the prices charged by the other tive merchants. Then the store on the opposite end in order to keep busl ness going in the face of the fire sale. started clearance sale which almost rivaled the fire sale
 About this time the merchant own ing the middle store, found that he had lost all trade. He stood ir front of the three stores and dismal | ly shook his head as he observed the flaring signs in the windows o1 his rivals, proclaiming great re auctions in prices. Then an ides struck him, a smile suddenly changed the expression of his face.

Two men are reported to have been seriously wounded in a shooting af- fair at the Miller roadhouse. on the Circle trail. about a week ago. and three or more arrests were threat ened.
 In the telegram telling of the af- fair the marshal's office was not given all the details. but it seems that the two men were quarrelling with a third. and that a woman was involved in the difficulty. The two injured men are James Loughtery and F. g. Erickson, the latter being the one assaulted by Loughtery and a man named William Lehman. De- putty Marshal Spencer went from Circle to the scene of the trouble with warrants for the arrest of the men and the woman.

Birch Lake is Spot of Rare Attractions
 Returning Hunters Enthused by Scenery

out door glories" of the Birch lake country are being described by the hunters who have returned from that place There was but little game there, but this deficiency was declared to be more than over come by the scenic beauty of the place.
 Among those who returned within the week from the Birch lake and Shaw creek districts were J. II, Caskey, owner of The Citizen, and sam Sea circulator for this news paper. Mr Caskey returned Wed nesday night. but MT Sea was a day and half later, having waited to come down with Julius Guis and George Moody
 Mr Caskey returned with new enthusiasm for the beautiful scenery on Interior Alaska, and he believes that there is no place in the world that can furnish more scenic attrac- tions for autoists. when suitable near Birch lake. Concerning his trip Mr Caskey said:
 We left Fairbanks a week ago last Thursday morning, making Mun- sons roadhouse for the night, The next day we went to Birch lake, but found there was no game there, so we went on to Richardson, and later in the day to Shaw creek. which is nine miles beyond Richardson.
 At Richardson we overlook Julius Guis and George Moody, who had travelled with us to Birch lake, but had continued their journey when we stopped to investigate conditions at the lake. From Richardson We travelled with them to Shaw creek. MOOSE HUNTERS GO.
 "On Saturday morning I took MT, Moody and MT Guis, accompanied by Tony Kozlowsky, who had agreed to act as their guide, to within three and a half miles of McCarty, and they started out to hunt for moose. I went to the bank of the river directly opposite McCarty, and took a look at the place before re- turning.
 "The hunters did not return to Shaw creek as soon as expected, and MT. Sea remained to look after their things until they returned, and I left for home Wednesday morning, at o'clock, and arrived home in my automobile that evening.
 TRIP ENJOYED.
 We saw no game of consequence, but we certainly enjoyed the trip. The weather was good, and the scen- cry was more beautiful than can be described. There were three or four parties camping at Birch lake. and though they had little game, they were having a good time.
 "The road between Fairbanks and Munson's is good, with the eXcep- ton of some spots, but the bad part of the road for us, when we were going out, was between Birch lake and Richardson The road was im- proved before our return by the
