This fact was attested this morn
ing to any one who chanced to pass
along West Main street and witness
the immense crowds assembled be-
fore the two stores Of Henry Baum
where the fire sale was advertised to
begin at 8 o'clock.
Ladies began to assemble early.
and before o'clock the sidewalks
We're blocked to such an extent
that made passing the two stores
almost impossible The police de-
partment was called upon to regu-
late traffic. and TO assist in main

might occur

were waited upon as rapidly as pos
sible and compelled to make their
exits through the rear entrances
Of the store. The crowd at the noon
hour was apparently undimnished
and a long line Of waiting customers
were waiting outside for an oppor-
tInity to gain entrance.

To Bed With Cold

New York, Sept. 29.--Babe Ruth
is confined to his bed AT his hotel
here with an attack of grippe
which will prevent him from play

suffering from nervous troubles.
Chick" Fewster is expected to
replace Ruth in left field today.

McGRATH. ALASKA. FEB. ,, 1921

On December 30st, when President Wilson signed the bill postponing the time of dolng the 1920 assessment work on mineral ela!ms in the United States aud Alaska. every honest inner who is desiJ ous ol working his claim had his assessment work done Only those who desire to hold mining claims with out cost or trouble or work, in the hope that they may get rich quick some day, like the Outside Alaskans who have been able to live in Seattle and San Francisco for years and hold the claims that they staked here by power of attorney wanted assessment work postponed for this year, and nine cases cut of ten those elaimholders will be just as delinquent on July 1st next m their assessment work as they have aeen on December 3lst in the years in which there has been no assessment work done here. It was just and right and proper that the soldier who owned mining ground in \ lasl1a should not be compelled to do assessment work then he was offering his life if need be-. for the protection of his country, but it is not just or right or proper in any way to free the claimgrabbers of the idle class from doing work on the claims which they are holding and preventing from produeing.-Fa Fairbanks News Miner

 HOT SPRINGS
Recent Arrivals Declare That They Are All
 Right.

Tell Howard Langley phat these Tuluwiksak Hot Springs are better than any we ever visited, " was the word sent up hy an old-tf. who had visited some of the same springs as had Mr. Langley.
 Mr. Barnhart and Ikey Hayes both speak highly of the spring Mr. Barn. hart having recently taken party of three friends to the place, all of W hom declare themselves we'll pleased. Tie water is highly sulphuric aud very hot, beans being cooked in it if lett over night.
 The springs, by trail, are about l6 miles from the Yukon, but in the open season are reached by going up Tulu- wiksak river a distance of forty miles and then overland four miles.
 Among those now at the svrings are Richard Rhodes. H. D. Mitchell and Bill Ieskay, all of whom will stay there for while. Several persons lave been there for rheumatism, all having said that they were benefited by the use of the waters.
 Only one cabin there at the present time, but plenty of timber and lots of wood.

IL may be that in another year the popular and proper thing to do will be to dig up the old Dutch oven, wipe up the bean pot and hike for those Tnlu- wiksak Hot Springs. If one is looking for excuses-wef. there's nothing to it.
