AUCTION SALE
 HISTORIC HOTEL

A large number of prospective buyers were on hand this morning when Marshal Frank Cook began to auction off the personal property of the famous old Fifth Avenue ho- tel. The old building is somewhat damp. cCld and dilapidated, yet the furniture inside is in good condition.
 This hotel enjoyed prosperous business during the boom days of Skagway, but several years ago it's owners became discouraged and left the hotel with fires burning, beds made, silverware and everything there, and locked the doors.
 The place has been the scene of much footing in recent years, and what iE left now is only the heav- fer articles of furniture, such as bedding. dressers, mattresses, tables carpets, buffets, easy chairs, etc. These goods are what are being sold today by the marshal in or der 10 pay up creditors of the ho- tel.

DEMAND BIG FOR
 ALASKA FURS

The demand for Alaska and Yu- kon furs is still insistent, and A. B. ShuDert the big fur dealer of Chi cago says that he has large orders for Alaska furs, foxes and lynx in particular. Interior mink as well as good colored coast mink are also selling freely and bringing good prices.
 The prices quoted by shubert at this time are good, and he states that the demand at present would warrant shipment of large quanti- ties, but 1t might be that the prices may go down later in the season.
 Red fox are quoted as high as $25 for No. 1 extra large skins, and heavy furred lynx are quoted at $25 per skin, while average or medium skins are bringing from $1O to SIP each. Mink are quoted at $S for No. 1, extra large dark col ored skins, and medium $3.25 to $4.OO.
 White fox are bringing $25 to $50 for No. 1, extra large skins, ant for No. 1. medium grades $14 to SIC is being paid.
 Wolverine are quoted at $7.OO to S9.G6 for extra large to average nelts, wolf skins are about the same.

MANY ASPIRANTS
 FOR GOVERNOR
(Cordoya Times)

1t seems to be generally believed among the Democrats that Major J. IF. A. Strong will not seek reap poiutment as governor of Alaska wher his present term expires next spring. And what has been the result? Practically every prominent and near-prominent member of the party in power is a candidate for this high office. It understood that Judge Jennings of the First Di- yisiCn is willing to resign from the bench, as is also Judge Bunnell, of the Fourth division, if they can land the gubeTnatorialship. John W. Troy, of the Juenau Empire, would not be adverse to having the lightning strike in his di- rection, while the Tanana valley has score of willing Democrats who banker after the job, among them being E. w. Griffin, the Cinema mer- chant. If the Third division is go- ing 10 put forth a candidate we have not vet heard his name mentioned.
 From present indications it will be a free-for-all fight, but we have an idea that the fellow who has the suppor of Natioanl Committed man T. J. Donohoe, of Valdez, will have a little bit the best of the other fellows who have thrown their hota in tha ring

SCORES
 ARE BONLEO

Place the blame where you will, oven credit the weather man with having driven the deYotees in doors if you please, but the fact remains that ihe past week has brought forth more high scores on the Elks alleys than for several weeks past.
 The fact that there are sev- eral contests in progress and more are being arranged for, may have added an impetus to the interest in the sport ,and during the winter there will be several games played that will furnish entertainment to all members of the lodge.
 Those rolling high scores for the pas: week were:
 A. c. Blanchard 213, J. Huntley 2O4, Jimmy Kennedy POP, Oscar Seh rner tied himself in two games with a score of POI.
 On ladies night two good scores were posted, Mrs. Scott rolling 1S4 and Mrs. P. H. Ganty 174.
 Mrs. Scott is a Pacific Coast champion, having a record of an average for ten games of 192, and another average for 50 games of 1S2. She has numerous medals which she as won in bowling tcurn ments at Los Angeles and other Pacific Coast cities.

The Inning Play

Ferdy Schupp was cheered as he went to the pitching mound and faced John Collins, lead.off man for the White Sox. Schupp put the first ball over for strike, which brought cheers from the Giant rooters. Col lins fouled off the next and then grounded out, Zimmerman to Holke. McMullin singled to left. Captain Ed die Collins was called out on strikes and made a vigorous protest against Umpire Rigler's judgment The lat ter paid no attention to Collins re marks. Joe Jackson went out on an easy grounded, Herzog to Holke.
 Burns, opening the inning for the Giants. hit the first ball pitched for a long high fly to Felsch. Herzog grounded to E. Collins, who made a fine pickup and threw to first. Benny Kauff was easily disposed of, McMul- lin to Gadil.
 Second Inning
 Neither side got a man on base in the second inning. Happy Felsch hit the second pitched ball to Fletcher and retired to the bench. The best Gandil could do was to chop a little bounded to Schupp and he was thrown out. Buck Weaver was struck out, only four balls being pitched to him.
 In the Giants half of the inning the ball did not get out of the inield. Heinie Zimmerman sent a roller to Eddie Collins. Fletcher went out, third to first, and Robertson. who was given the glad hand for his work in yesterdays game, ended the in- ming by rolling out, Faber to Gandil.
 SchaIk Singles
 Catcher Schalk heartened the Chi cago rooters by shooting a clean sin gle to left field in the opening of the third. Faber tried to lay down a bunt,
