TRAIL OPEN
Mail for Seward Leaves Next Mon day and Every Succeeding
 Week Till April 30

The first consignment of mail over the
 eward trail will leave Flat on Monday next,
 nd every succeeding Monday until the end
 the contract term on April 30 This IS
 ccording to instructions received by Tom Boyd, the carrier in charge of this end ot the route during the past week.
 Contrary to the custom in previous years years, the mail will be made up at Flat, which will relieve the local office of con siderable labor, which will be transferred to the Flat postmaster. This IS due to the fact that the routing of the mail has been changed to include Gphir, and lditarod be comes way station thereby.
 In all probability the mail from Seward for the Interior will leave on the same day and to meet the contract requirements II should reach here not later than Saturday. December ?. However, it may be that an effort will be made to push the consignment through ahead of schedule With good traIS the trip can easily be made in twenty days The last mail to be received here was on October Il and thus 8 period ot nearly two months will have elapsed during which the district has been entirely without mall service.
 Mails will close on Sunday of each week at D. m. at the Flat postotfice, and at 10 a. m Monday at the 1ditarod office

SeY- eral of those departing were among the num- Der who usually take the last boat out, but this year there seems to have been gen eral desire to await the opening of the Win ter trail rsther than to suffer the discom- forts and perIls of trip in a small boat to St. Michael
 The first team to get away was m charge of Bob Griffis the veteran muSher and for mer mail carrier, with Charles Ross of the Miners & Merchants Bank as a passenger, Mir Ross will go as far as Tokctna with MT. Grifis and there await the arrlVal oI sienry Riley with whom he will proceed to Seward.
 Henry Riley and Al Walsh got away later. Mir Walsh goes only as f&r as Oph!r at present, and Mir Riley, after transactng business at Tokotna and Candle creek, will resume his journey to Seward.
 Among the others who departed or were preparing to depart were Gil;e Bates, Harry Johnson, Angus McKinzie and his son, Er- nest, Joe Lorenger and Chester Brink, and several others There promises to be plenty of travel on the trail this winter, as most if not all of the persons leaving intend to return in February or March.
