Atlantic City, y. j., July This
is get-uWay-day for Jack Dempsey.

fore sundoWn this evening the grim.
determined Dempse" will he secluded
amid the strange SURROUNDINGS of Il
private residence in Jeraer city, per
hapa to face Il night that may seem
endless. there to remain until he
faces Carpenter in the battle OF his
life tomorrow afternoon.
Everything is i'll readiness for the
champions departure The exact hour.
however, hiss not been divulged nor
has Jack Kearns, Dempsey's manager,
revealed the railroad over which the
champion and his party will travel.
Where Dempsey will sleep in Jersey
City tonight also is a guarded secret.
The location will not be revealed even
to the champion himself as MANAGER
Kearns is taking every preraution to
have him rest in absolute guict, away
from the eyes Of the ca ious thou
sands. ~
Dempsey Is Happy
Released from the close contine-
ment of two months training. Demp-
sey is happy in his liberation and
more like Il boy brimming over with
anticipation than heavyweight
champion, facing the most important
battle OF his career.
Dempsey revealed his happy. care
free state of mind yesterday when
he sat on the front porch of the house
and for more than two hours took
part in Il conversation that included Il
variety of subjects. While Il driving
rain beat down on the huge field sur
rounding his camp the pugiliSt
laughed heartily and joked with Il
small circle of friends. frequently
taking Il Friendly slap at whoever
might be within range.
Dempsey had intended taking a
light workout of Il round or two at the
punching bags in the old arplanp shed
back of his camp yesterday hut the
rain prevented all exercise except q
long walk in the morning and Mike
Trant, Chicago detective sergeant.
who will act as nempsey's bodyguard.
in and out of the ring tomorrow. To
Mike it was no more than a brisk
walk; just Il bit OF exercise.
After playing cards with his han
dlers last night and reading telegrams
containing wishes for good luck Demp-
Sey went to bed at $50 o'clock and
Trant. who slept in an adjoining room,
is authority for the statement that the
champion slept soundlY for nearly
nine hours.
Keeps in Good Humor
Dempsey is an unusual champion in
at least one conspicuous respect. Nir-
tually on the eve OF his engagement
with Carpenter he is displaying none
of that grouchiness and unappronch-
ability that traditionally has come to
be regarded as the conclusive proof
of/a fighter being ''On edge" for an
important battle. The presence of
irritability has long been considered
a prerequisit to prime physical con.
dition. 1t does not hold true with
Dempsey Manager Kearns and 9TH
ers connected with the champion have
felt the strain OF the protracted train
ing period and are showing it more
than the fighter.
What some OF those around him
consider an annoyance Dempsey ac-
cepts as an amusing interruption.

ances and utter strangers meeting

BRIDGE OVER SUSITNA
 HAS BEEN COMPLETED

ANCHORAGE, Feb 17.AAnother mile post in Alaska railroad con- struction was reached on Sunday, February 6, when the first G. A. R. (Great Alaska Railroad) passenger train passed over the mammoth wooden and steel bridge which spans the Susitna river at Mile 275. Later heavy freight train passed over and H. M. Brayford sent word to con- mission headquarters in Anchorage that the bridge was ready to turn over to the government.
 The successful completion of the Susitna river bridge marks an epoch in Alaska railroad construction, es. pecially when 1t is taken into con- stderation that the entire steel work was accomplished during the winter months. The bridge proper, from bank to bank, Is 1922 feet in length and comprises thirty 14-foot wooden trestles, two 70-foot pony timber spans, two 121-foot" through timber spans and one 5O4foot through steel span. The total tonnage of the steel span is 1903 tons The bridge is level grade and the alignment tan gent.
 Original work of test boring for foundations started in 1919; excavat- ing for foundations in April, 1920, and the false work later in the sum- mer of 1920 Work on the large steel span started November and was as- sembled ready for travel February 6

PULP MILL MAY COME
 TO TERRITORY

Il believe that we are we'll in line now to see the establishment of large pulp and paper manufacturing plant at Thane, and I hope and be- lieve that construction will be started this spring" declared George r. Jack son, general manager of the Alaska Gastineau mine, speaking before the Juneau Commercial Association. The big slump in the money markets which started last fall, said MT. Jackson, had been a deterrant fac tor in the establishment of the pro- posed plant.
 The amount of capital required to erect and operate the plan proposed at Thane, he said, was enormous. The investment at Ocean Falls, B. C., where a similar industry is oper- ating, he said, is between $12,0O0, ,000 and $15,000,000. The company, how ever, he said, had the surplus water power at this time to operate a I00- ton mill and plant and more could readily be developed. The water power which has been developed by the company, he said, had an approxi- mate value of $2,0O0,0O0 This with machine shops, wharves, site and necessary buildings and materials already possessed by the company, make Thane an ideal place for the establishment of the proposed indus try.

Gastineau mines have been operated since 1915, and how it's operation had been maintained despite the un- favorable conditions growing our of ever-increaSing costs.
