Gone-The Horse and Dog; Here Comes The Insect

Cleared of stray dogs, Juneau's streets are now wide open to the encroachment of a newer and more potent menace, especially imported from the States to frustrate all Ju- neau's inclinations toward the se- date and quiet life.
 Borne to this heretofore compara- lively unspoiled city, from Seattle aboard the steamer Alaska, those sitdown roller skates, Known as motor -scooters that are now marr- ing the vistas and serenity of the States, have landed the first of their kind into Alaska. A putting pioneer into the land of polar bears and potlatches.
 Gordon Graham, shop superinten- dent for the Alaska Air Transport: hitherto seemingly respectable and congenial citizen of this city, is the moving force behind the in- vasion of the puddle-jumping gad- gets. Somewhere, or other, he be- lieves he has discerned a use and justification for their existence last evening, unpacked his animated mouse and skittered about the streets of Juneau, occasionally halt ing his promenade to extoll the ac- complishments of his critter. for which he claims to be the sole Ju- neau agent.
 According to the ecloge of Agent Graham, his one and one-half h.p. scooter is equipped with gas tank mainly because someone seemed to think it a compliment to the ap- pearance of the gadget; as it's fuel requirements probably could be sat- isfied by carrying filled eye-drop- per. Rhapsodies rolled from Agent Graham's tongue on the hill-climb- ing propensities, the speed, the flex- ibility of his galloping double doughnut. According to his prop hecy, Alaska. in keeping with the rest of the world, is soon to be the domain of untold numbers of the popping insects.
 Verify, has the yip of the canine given way to the bark of the self propelled velocipede.

WHAT THE-?
Spring has come

Spring has come
 Yeah?
 A lone robin, perched on roof top on a Sixth Street house this morning, feathers ruffled, so as to keep warm, looked down on the roof and the surrounding landscape, all covered with snow, and with a raw wind blowing, as much as to say.
 50 this is Spring-Yeah?
 The robin looked forlorn
 There was not another robin in sight.
 Then it hailed. a little, and the robin hopped closer to the warm chimney
 Then the wind blew little strong CT, and the robin hopped still closer to the chimney.
 Then strong guest of wind came and the little robin lost it's equilib- rum, fluttered down the roof and finally lighted on the lawn covered with snow.
 50 this is spring" chirped the robin, the first chirp in over half an hour.
 Then it picked the snow to reach the ground-it was frozen too.
 The robin was hungry-and looked it.
 Then another gust of wind struck the robin It took to wing and dis appeared over St. Anns Hospital, letting out a little chirp:

Perennial Power

CHICAGO, September 15.-The
rest of the Big Ten may as
well start believing everything
they have heard about Minnesota's
1887 gridiron power-unless there's
a whale OF difference between
Bernie Bierman's best and the
stooge department.
Bierman turned his varsity hopes
loose for the first time in practice
yesterday, and without delay,
touchdown making was put on a
high-speed production basis. Andy
Uram, the Gophers' ace ball car
rier, was left in long enough at left
halfback to race off tackle for 10
yards and a touchdown.
Bill Matheny replaced Uram, and
before Bierman could get him out
of there, he broke away for four
touchdown jaunts, one on an 30
yard gallop and another a 50-yard
trip after catching pass.
