Brown IS Looking
 For Missing Man

Dick Brown knows nearly every body in interior Alaska and he usual ly keeps a record of the movements of the most migratory people with whom he is liable to have business dealings of any kind. Consenuenf'T when anvhnd.r ---<-.Aeo to hlo" holae' thing concerning the whereabouts of any person, it is a common thing for somebody to say, Ask Water front Brown; he can tell you If anyone can"
 But MT. Brown is now looking for a man with whom he is not ac- ouainted and whose record he does not know. although he has either seen the mans name in print some where or heard 1t spelled out. The man is Charles E. Kall, sometimes known as Charles F. Cederbled
 The inquiry relative to the miss ing man came to MT. Brown from the Outside kall Is said to have come north from California about three years ago. That is, he was heard of as being in the Fairbanks district at that time, having last written his relatives in California from this place.
 Anyone who knows the where abouts of Kall, or Cederbled, will please notify MT. Brown, as the latter has information of import ance regarding the settlement of an estate in his possession.
