GOVERNORS OFFICE
 TO HAVE LIBRARY

More office space is to be immed, lately provided in the old mission building that houses the office of the Governor of Alaska. The large room in the North end of the building which has heretofore been used as a store, room Is to be remodeled and fitted up and furnished so that 1t can be put to better use. A part of the space will be taken up with the Alaska gov ernment library and a portion for gen. eral office purposes.
 The old ramshacltle building has been accommodating material for the Al. aska museum and library for several years and much of the library collec' tion is unavailable when wanted for the reason that it has been packed away because there has heretofore been no library room fitted up to re. ceive 1t.
 Gov. Walter E. Clark made repeated efforts to get an appropriation to pro- vide more room so that the library could be made available but was not successful. Very recently the Treas. ury Department authorized the Gov ernor's office to have the work done and call was issued by Gov. J, r. A. Strong the other dya for bids to do the work.

FIRST SHIPMENT
 BRIQUET HERE

The Meteor, Capt. Robert McGnli. vary in command, arrived yesterday afternoon with coal and general mer- chandise and is discharging at the Pa, cific Coast dock. The vessel also brought the first shipment of Black Diamond coal briquets for the Pacific Coast company. and Charles J. Will bur, Jr.. manager for the coal depart. ment of the Pacific Coast company will immediately proceed to make the people of Juneau acquainted with the new fuel.
 In speaking of the product this morning MT. Wilbur said: Tt is a we'll known fact that in mining the richest portion of the coal vein is the part that crumbles easiest. For years the demand for a good house coal on the Pacific coast has exceeded the sup ply The idea of making brlQuets to supply this demand is not new but has been experlmeuted on for years until at last the righh process was evolved and an immense plant built at cost of $25O,OOO near Seattle for the manufacture of the products.
 These briQuets are manufactured from the fine coal which is shipped di. rect from the mines to the plant, mix. ed with pure asphaltum. The fine coal on arrival at the plant is ground still finer in huge mills which are one of the important features of the plant. After being mixed it is moulded and paved in a giant press where a pres sure of 6O,OOO pounds reduces it to solid briQuet, each one weighing ten ounces. They are clean to handle and burn with very little smoke and prac- tically no soot. There is very little ash because the briquets are free of slate or boen. We expect the people of Juneau to take kindly to the new fuel"

J. o'Connor The band marched around with their au. tomatic lighted chapeaus and all the horns going full bast and in a short while the crowd was doing the same and the fun could not be headed of the band boys continued making themselves popular with lively rag music relieving or alternating with Prof. Sumpfs orchestra and soon ev. erybody was ragging or wanting to rag.
 The crowd continued until the late ferries were screaming for their fares and they reluctantly left for their sev- eral homes.
