 Pup L. F. Protzman's blood Shows hound pup. a thorough Ability bred which was recently
 sent to him from Port land, is giving promise of being all his owner is anticipating, and if he were only little older he would probably be useful in the work of running down criminals.
 The pup demonstrated his native ability recently, and incidentally was the cause of Mir Protzmans daugh- ter Miss Helen, being given se- we're fright.
 Miss Protzman took the pup out for a walk, and when in the vicinity of the park, the pup started sniff ing the ground in an excited man ner. His mistress supposed that the dog had scented a rabbit, and therefore allowed him to- follow up the scent, though she retained hold on the chain as she followed him.
 Suddenly, as the dog emerged into an open place in the bushes, Miss Protzman was mortified to see lying on the ground there a drunken man. The pup began to bark furiously, but his mistress hurried him away from the scene as the drunken man began to awaken.
 Visitors Frank Tondro, known by See almost everybody in In Doo Team. terior Alaska as the
 "Malamute Kid" pro vided the visiting tourists few days ago with a novel experience, that of riding on a dog sled, drawn by regular Alaska dogs.
 As soon as it was noised about that Mir Tondro would entertain the tourists by showing them his dog team, practically every visitor was anxious to go to Graehl to see the team As a result, there were about 30 on hand when the team was brought out, and almost every tourist carried with him or her camera
 To the Sourdoughs the interesting thing was to see the way the new corners wanted to pretend they were having a real Alaska dog-team ride. They were placed in a sleigh. and although it was one of the hot test days of the season, they were wrapped in furs while their pictures were being taken in the sleigh.
 The fact that the background Of these dogteam pictures showed green grass and trees did not seem to bother the tourists, for all they wanted was to get their pictures taken with the sleigh, wrapped in rurs and with a dog-team in front of them.
 Nome Just because Judge Tuck Loses CT, of the Second diVl- Revenues. sion has decided that
 Alaska may go dry" by May of next year. the town of Nome is having hard time to get money enough to pay city expenses. Ac- cording to recent issue of the Nome Nugget, the town of Nome is already minus $S,O00 as a result of the courts anticipation of com ing prohibition.
 Here is what the Nugget says about it:
 The recent decision of Judge Tucker relative to the issuance of liquor licenses, in which the court refused to extend saloon licenses for a period beyond the first of May. 1916, has had the effect of cutting off a considerable portion of the revenues of the city and at the present time the excheQuer is in badly debilitated condition.
 "In addition to the loss of rev tuuc otdlCut NhC SAty W AA "A'O lose the sum of three thousand dol lars owing to the retirement of the Seward Commercial Company. The total amount lost to the city through both sources will approximate about nine thousand dollars. This sum the city will have to get along with out in the best way it can unless other means are provided for sup plying the deficiency"
