RepoSed Under His
 LuckyStar atLast
Front Street Crowded Until Mid-
 night-F. H. Muir Is the Lucky Winner.

The following story from the Needles Nugget refers to our former tOwnsman, Frank Muir, who spent so many years in and around Skag- way.
 His good fortune will be a source of pleasure to many friends in the north and that he is coming back will be welcome news.
 The Alaskan congratulates their old subscriber:
 The drawing for the fine 1921 model Buick touring car took place last Saturday night in front of the c. P. store on Front street. The com mittee in charge of the drawing con- sisted of Messrs. Ben Harrison, B. B. Neel, Christy J. Fenler, G. F. Connor, Fred Runyon, Charles w. Kenney, Bill Dolash and Robert Beherns. The tickets were placed into two containers, one containing the numbers of the tickets sold and unsold, and the other an equal num- Der of blanks-4, 4,000-minus one. This one was marked Buick. Mir. Harrison explained the manner of the drawing, after which the ball was started rolling.
 Christy Fenler was blindfolded and assigned to the task of fishing out the lucky number, but along about 12 o'clock he threw up the sponge and Frank COnnor took his place. Bill Dolash stuck all the way through as announcer of the numbers drawn and the blank" an nouncers divided the honors of the evening between Charles Kenney Frank Connor and Fred Runyon. It was nearly 12:30 when MT. Runyon called out Buick" and MT. Dolash said "1796." For some little time it was not known who the lucky holder or the winning numDer was, but later it was learned that the holder of the ticket was Frank H. Muir, for some time bumper at the Santa Fe, but who got bumped" in the first reduction cut.
 There was a big crowd out and it stayed until quite late, or until their numbers came out accompanied by blank. The drawing was a most fair one to all parties concerned, and. the committee is to be thanked for their arduous task of supervising the drawing from ' O. clock in the evening until 12:90 A. M.
