 CRYING NEEO

J. F. Majors has been in Anchor age for several days On business connected with his quartz holdings on Iron creek, says the Anchorage Times. Mir. Majors is among the most reliable prospectors in this district and feels very much enoour- aged over the result of this Sea sons development. He expects to return to Iron creek tomorrow to arrange for shipment of high grad ore to the Tacoma smelter. The shipment will be made by sleds oyer the snow to the nearest rail road point, Much of the ore, MT Majors declares, will go over $2OO q ton in copper and gold values.
 His property is located in the i'm mediate vicinity of the Joe Morrs claims on one side and the Copper Queen, owned by the Wells boys, on the other.
 The lack of summer trails and roads Mir. Majors says is material-- Iy retarding development work and operation in the district, which is ac credited to be exceptionally rich in gold and copper ore. The district is sadly in need of better transporta- tiOn facilities, as well as a ferry over Sheep creek, where the trail crosses near the mouth going into the Iron creek district.
 MT. Majors declares that the many voters of the district will probably combine on the road com mission candidate whom they think will GC them the greatest good. He spent part of the summer Prospect ing in the Peters hills in the Cache creek district, but failed to discoV- CT any ground of commercial value Mr. Majors expects to return to An Chorage for the winter after arrang- in for the ore shipment to Tacoma.

ALI Fighting Men Brothers.

A young American army private came out of a gilded Broadway florists the other afternoon carrying a very large and expensive bouquet tied up in waxed paper and walked toward one of those stunty baby doll roadsters at the curb.
 As he was crossing the sidewalk along came another American army private, undeniably of Italian descent, and known along Broadway for his ability to wield the polishing rag at a Herald square shoe shining parlor. The two stopped to exchange greetings.
