Charlotte Prepares
For Shriners Meet

Charlotte. N. c., July -(Ry

Northern Shriners have been Won
dering what sort of a time they
were going to have in Charlotte,
N. c., the home of Caesar r.
Blake, Jr., Imperial Potentate of
the A. E. o. N. . Shrine, who so
successfully conducted the fight
for his organizations existence
through local, state, and Federal
courts during the half dozen years.
When the North Carolina metrop-
oils was selected as the next place
of meeting at the Chicago session,
Mr.. Blake promised complete
Southern hospitality and sustain
ing proof from the mayor of the
city, the Chamber of Commerce,
and their influential local inter-
ests. That he will be fully able
to "make good" on those assur-
ances is best told in the news sto-
ry of another large race conven-
ton which closed its sessions in
that city on July 18th.
The Eastern District Conven-
ton of the American Woodmen
convened in Charlotte during the
week of July Z. The organization

ALASKA SOURDOUGH
 PASSES IN NEVADA

Ben Simpson, pioneer merchant of the north, who has been making his home in the states since leaving Anchorage about six years ago, died at Reno, Nevada, June 13.-accord- ing to information received at Fairbanks by his brother Abe, who is in business there.
 Ben Simpson came north to Dawson during the gold rush and went from there to Council, in the Seward peninsula district. He also was engaged in business in Fair banks for a number of years and was among the first to engage in business at Nenana when that town came into being. Later he came to Anchorage, his last Alaska venture.
 After leaving Anchorage he made a trip to Germany and was mar ried there. At the time of his pass ing he was operating chain of stores in Nevada. He is survived by a widow and baby and by five brothers, all five of whom were in Alaska at one time. Abe Simpson is the only one in the Territory at present.-(Anchorage Times)

ANOTHER TAKU
 GROUP BONDED
Sum of $135,000 Paid for Property on South Fork
 ofRiver, Says Fremming

The bonding of another mineral property group on the south fork of the Taku River was reported here today by Elliott Fremming, Tulsequah man, who is in Juneau for the Fourth of July celebration.
 Fremming, who is with Capt. William Strong in Tulsequah busi- ness enterprises, reported that Van- couver capital has paid down S135,- 000 He was unable to announce whose group was taken over.
 Tulsequah, the townsite, accord ing to Fremming, is busy, as is the entire district. The Alaska Ju- neau now has about 50 men at their camp, the Stapler interests expect to have about 25 men on their property soon, and there are be- tween 40 and 50 individual pros pectors in the region The heavy mineralized zone on the south fork of the Taku looks better every day, Fremming declared
 The Canadian authorities are contemplating trail to Atlin from Tulsequah, he said. The govern ment will probably make a pre- liminary survey this fall. The route of the trail is expected to be up the Taku Valley to canoe naviga- tion on the Sloko, then over a small divide to the automobile road 20 miles from Atlin.
 Another trail, to the Tulsequah Chief, Stapler property, will be built this year. Tulsequah and the south fork of the Taku will also be connected by trail.
 Two parties from the Canadian government are already in the Taku field, one under MT Bartlett to do typographical mapping, and the ether under Dr. Kerr, minerologist

GOLD STORAGE SWAMPED WITH
 MUCH SALMON
Freezers Unable to Keep Up with Boats Bringing
 Catches to Juneau

With the freezers full and thou sands of pounds of salmon waiting to be frozen, the Juneau Cold Stor :. age Company continues to be swamped with fish.
 For the past few days buyers have had to ice their fish down in the shed in order to keep it in good condition until there was room in the freezing rooms.
 The swamped situation this yea . has been caused by the unusually large run in the Sitka district and the entrance of Atlantic and Pa cific in the local buying field. This latter firm has been buying salmon in large quantities. All of the Sitka fish is frozen here, as there are no facilities for the work in Sitka. &S
 Yesterday Marlyn received 11.Ooo pounds of salmon on the Adeline, from Catalina Bay, and IT boxes from Fred Schrey of Sitka. This morning the Progress was in with 18,000 pounds for Marlyn.
 Atlantic and Pacific received 2O.- 900 pounds on the Hyperion, Capt. Oscar Oberg, and 1,20O pounds on the Anna H., Capt. w. O. Carlson.
