DEER DRIVEN
 INTO JUNEAU
 BY DEEP SNOW
Four Deer Appeared in the Vicinity of the St. Ann Hospital Last
 Evening.

Last evening considerable excite ment was caused in the vicinity of St. Anns Hospital by the appear ance of four deer which had been driven into the city by the deep snow in the hills. The deer wan dered about the neighborhood for nearly an hour. One of them en- tered the yard and went onto the back porch of the residence of Royal Shepard looking for food. One of the animals was captured by J. P. l.. Graves, of the Juneau Music House, and it will be kept and fed until spring, when it will either be turned loose or shipped to the westward to stock the islands in Prince Will liam Sound. It is thought the deer either came across from Douglas Island, by way of the bar. or were driven down from the Lemon Creek Basin.

RE:DDICK GREEK
 IS PROMISING

Among the outgoing passengers on the Princess Sophia last night were Robert Reddick and wife the discoy- CTS of the new gold strike on Red dick Creek, about 20 miles from Whitehorse, and which last fall ere ated a small stampede, says the Skagway Alaskan. MT. and Mrs. Reddick are going to Vancouver for the winter and while there will use the time to secure capital for the development of their property
 Gold was discovered in the Red dick creek country about 16 years ago, and there have been many prospecting trips to find the source of the metal and to find the creek on which placer diggings would pay. LeMar made three trips into the country to find the stream, but he failed each time.
 Mr and Mrs. Reddick have been in the country for r years and are experienced miners and pioneers. They have prospected each of IA years and never until last fall did they discover diggings that were worth while.
 Mir Reddick worked on Russell creek three years ago, and last fall discovered new stream which emp ties into Russell, and on which he found gold in paying quantities. This stream was named after himself, and is the scene of the new discoveries where hundreds of claims have been staked
 During the fall months AIr. Red dick sunk a shaft down F feet, and found good paying dirt all the way The ground is full of boulders ant! blast set off in the pit caused a cayein of the shaft, stopping opera tions temporarily. In the spring the Reddicks will again take up the work of fur nr development and mining Both Mr. and Mrs. Reddick are full of hope for the new district and eX pect to find only the best of luck.
 Mrs. Reddick emphatically stated the new creek is not the McCauley as stated in some quarters and which has been mined repeatedly, but is ar entirely new stream that has not yet been indicated on any map.
 MT. Reddick is pioneer skifi builder of the Yukon, and is knowr all along the great interior water highway. He and his wife have suf fered many hardships during their + years on the interior and each o them know what it means to carr, pack on their backs and camp fol days in search of the yellow metal Now that they have made the dis covery they are bending all their ef 1 forts to develop the country and tt procure enough of the gold to repa, them for their many hardships True sourdoughs" may be the best de scriptive word of the Reddicks.

City Library Is
Growing With Use

The summer story hours were
largely attended and led to greater
interest in subjects treated.
An increase in the tax levy for
the library came opportunely, as
the. surplus is exhausted, and the
expense of maintenance is increased
by the higher prices Of everything
used.
Below are comparative statistics
for the years 1916 and 1915: Re
ceipts $126.13, $S7.19 tickets is
sued 1871, 1170; books and maga-
zines issued 21730. 2O177; callers
44.181, 41,036; books purchased
235, 321 books donated 307, IS;
books added 542, 1876. The above
is far from an accurate measure of
service, as many more books pamph-
let's and magazines are used in
reference work than are issued, but
it would require too much time to
keep record of latter use.
The total number of bound vol
umes in the library other than gov
ernment books, January ], 1917, is
66SS.
A large number of Abilene peo-
pie contributed books and pamphlets
and many government and state
documents were received.

Miss Ida Romig, city librarian
in her annual report says;
The past year our library had the
good fortune to see an increase in
all of its activities. Two hundred
and one more tickets were issued
than during 1915; 596 more books
and magazines issued; 3145 more
, people served; POS more books
added, although the larger part Of
these were gifts; and there was q
Tremendous increase in the use of
the reference department. Not only
students from the schools and club
members but other residents and
non-residents availed themselves OF
the opportunity to study and young
and old have sought it as bureau
of information.
The freshmen and sophomores OF
the high school were brought in
groups to the library and instructed
in the use of magazine indexes and
other library guides. Talks on how
10 use the library were given in
some of the schools with decided
betterment in selection by children
Talks were also given before moth
ers clubs on books desirable TO:
children, and an exhibit of choice
books made at the library during
the holidays.
