that there is large market for automobiles and that

The phonograph record ads tell ~the kind of mu-

 DEPART F0R ANCHORAGE

Full of pep and viniger and with the confidence which only youth can feel, the Seward high school basketball team departed for abupad-Apchor- age, where they will again attempt to sink the Inlet high school team in series of three games, tonight, to- morrow night and the third game, on Saturday morning.

AN|SH-AMER|CAN WAR DAYS FILM AT
 THE LIBERTY TONIGHT

Senor Don Emilio Aguinaldo Y Guary, more familiarly known as Aguinaldo, the insurrection leader of the Philippines during the Spanish American War, plays an important part in Across the Pacific,' the Warner Bros, production which comes to the Liberty theatre tonight featuring Monte Blue.
 The story is woven around the in surrection in the Philippines shortly after the Spanish-American War and deals with the intrigue and revolu- tionary efforts of .Aguinaldo to be- come dictator of the Philippine Is lands. Many historic characters play important parts in it's telling, includ- ing Colonel Theodre Roosevelt. Ad- miral George Dewey, General Otis and particularly General Frederick Fun ston. around whom much of the story transpires.
 The 9th Regiment of California Volunteers, the 4th Kentucky Caval- " and the famous 20th Kansas Vol unteers, who under General Frederick Funston distinguished themselves in the Philippines are the important regimental units in the story.
 The picturization deals with the pursuit and ultimate capture of Aguinaldo after a strenuous campaign involving practically all of the army 1 corps stationed in the Philippines. Thru one of his confidential agents Funston learns of Aguinaldo's hiding place, and with daring and dispatch l his small force of selected men trap the elusive self-styled dictator. A terrific battle in the jungles is Waged 1 and for a time it seems that their ef- l forts are about to be lost, when the timely arrival of endorsements ena- bles them to take Aguinaldo and his army, thus ending the bitter struggle.
 Thru the melodramatic spectacle of intrigue and adventure runs the stirring story of the love of two Wo- men for Monte, the American soldier. It is a story of jungle passion and of love as tender as summer rain and old-fashioned roses. Rough and ready mirth shuffles thru the picture, too. Tragedy, comedy, romance and fight ing adventure, magnificently protray- ed in Across the Pacific"

That Wing6eld is a man of iron
will and iron nerve has been proven
many times, but perhaps. the best
demonstration was during the Gold
field boom. The excitement was at
its height. The famous leases on the
Co1d6eld Consolidated had expired
at midnight. December 81. 1906:
the Hayes-Monette lease had made
record of producing 1000, 900 in
gold in $50 working days and It was
estimated that the miners working in
these leases had high graded at
least a million more.
The ore was so rich that a miner
coming of shift had little trouble in
slowing away $50 or 500 worth Of
il in the pockets Of his oyerall:. Miners
working for wages Of IS day were
spending many times that every night
over the bars and gambling tables OF
which Gold6eld in those hectic days
had plenty.
Wing6eld. vice president of the
Cold6eld Consolidated and in direct
charge of mining operations, decided
il wa. time to put a stop to this steal
ing of the rich ore. His plan was to
J. establish change rooms where the men
would be required to exchange their
digging clothes for their street ap-
parel under the watchful eyes Of a
trusted Inspector.
Thi, would give the men no op.
portunity to steal FIVE or ten-pound
chunks of the ore. worth all the way
from $40 to $40 a pound.
