Sourdough Barber
 Off for Outside

Julius Hoffman. one of Fair banks sourdough barbers, was a passenger for the Outside on the stage which left town last Tuesda, morning. He will take in all o. the sights from Seattle to San Fran cisco, expecting to return north again in March. And it is rumor ed that he is not to return alone as it is stated that after a long life of single blessedness, Julius has decided to travel in double har, ness.
 MT. Hoffman started north in the days of '97 from Chicago. Not lk ing the idea of the sea voyage as it was at that time, he started to go to Dawson over the Edmonton trail. It was two years and five months afterward that he arrived at the scene of the big gold strike in the Klondike country And he travelled nearly all of the time, too as other residents of Fairbanks who came in over that trail can testify

NAME 0F NEW
 POSTOFF|CE IS
 NOW L|VENC00D
BROOKS, ALASKA, IS NOT Oh LIST OF POsTOFFICEs
 IN UNITED STATES.

"Livengood" is the name given by the postotfiCe department to the postoffice in the Tolovana mining district, according to information received here, and it is stated that it is so called in the commission of Postmaster Tom Patterson As n several other instances in Alaska there will therefore. always be q dispute as to the name of the town on discovery, Livengood creek. for although it is designated Liyengoot by the postal authorities, it is re corded with the United States sig nal corps and commercial telegraph companies as Brooks. and it would be a difficult matter to change now
 It is stated that the reason for calling the new town Livengood is the fact that there are at least l2 other postoGices in the United States called Brooks. It is there fore believed that if the Tolovan& city was called Brooks, q great dea' of mail would be mis sent to Brooks Alabama, For it is a well known fact that many letters coming here bear the postollice stamp which says 'mis sent to Fairbanks. Alabama or to Fairbanks, Oklahoma.
 On the other hand, there will al ways be mixture of the name of Brooks and Livengood. An eX ample of such a nglomerati0n ot names is Panama and Fort Gibbon the former the town at the cOnflu ence of the Panama river with the Yukon, and the latter the army post.

BOOSTING FOR P0STOFF|CE 0F
 SECOND CLASS
COMMERCIAL CLUB WOULD RAISE CLASSIFICATION OF
 LOCAL OFFICE.

At Its meeting last Wednesday afternoon, the executive board of the Fairbanks Commercial club de cided to inaugurate campaign among the townspeople. having as it's object the raising of the classi- fication of the local postoftice. It was pointed out at the meeting that by little extra effort on the part of the citizens the local office could easily be brought into the second class, which would mean good advertising as far as the town is concerned, as but few towns in the United States the size of Fair banks have second class postotiiccs
 When the postoffice was moved to its present location some weeks ago, 800 new postofice boxes were installed Since that time the ma jority Of the boxes have been rent ed, showing beyond doubt that the number of people getting their mail at Fairbanks were cramped for room before. A few more. how ever. yet remain to be rented. and the campaign of the Commercial club is to see that they are rented if possible.
 To that end, D. H. Mack has been appointed a committee of ona to look over the situation. He will make a thorough canvass of the town and try. if possible. to ascer tain who is getting their mail reg
