KELLER BROS. DRUG CO.
jSKAGWAY NOW HAS A
GREAT WHITE WAY
From this time ou, darkness will
have 110 terror for tho residents of
Skagway by reason of the fact that
with the installation of the new
lighting system being installed to
day, this city will »ake the position,
of being the best lighted city in
the territory.
Early ».oday, .Superintendent N. O.
Hardy, secretary for the Home
l'ower company, assisted by Louis
Kudor and L. A. Snell, two first
class electricians begun the hang
ing cf the new lights which wore
purchased by the merchants of
Skagway with the understanding
that the power company would in
stall them free of charge, and the
city pay for the current.
The fixtures are known as tho
Iiolopliane street lights and each
one is equipped with a 500 watt
nitrogen gas lamp which will give
over 000 candle power of light. The
first light is located at the ap
proach to the Pacific Coast wharf
on Second avenue, the second at
the corner of Broadway and Sec
ond and from that point to the cor
ner cf Broadway and Sixth avenue
a light hangs from each street
and alley crossing.
Each year there has been an im
provement in tho lighting system,
tho old 16 c. p. carbons of the
past having beeu. Improved upon
each year until last year 22 c. p.
Tungsten lamps hung from the cor
ner polec and even they looked
pretty well.
However, this with a man em
bued with advanced ideas in the
electric lighting world, this fall,
Mr. Hardy put the matter up to> the
merchants in a straight way, with
the result that tho price of the
new fixtures and lights vie quickly
subscribed. The council willingly
assumed the additional cost for the
current, and the Home Power com
pany donated the expense for In
stallation. The lights were to
have been In place early in the sea
son, but owing to the great Hemand
for them the wectem supply houses
were unable to meet the demand,
and it was only on the last boat
tlia* the new lights came to hand.
At first it was decided to postpone
the installation until the coming
spring or next fall, but upon ur
gent request of the business men,
it was decided to make the instal
lation so that tho Christmas Bjiop
pcrs might enjoy the Joys and
pleasures of a business Bectlon with
lights that would do credit to a
metropolitan city.
NEW BICE IS
COiPLEIEG
At three o'clock yesterday after
uoou Superintendent \V. P. Pender
gast, for the Alaska Road commis
sion, accepted the new bridge over
the Skagway river, connecting the
east side with the west side at
Twenty-second avenue
The bridge is 363 feet long, and
twelve feet wide. Over the river
there is one span fifty feet long,
and on the east side there are
nineteen bents while on the west
side there are fourteen.
The wor* was done under con
tract, Charles Bender of Juneau
having been given the work as he
wag the lowest bidder. Owing to
the delay in getting the timber and
piling for the bridge the work was
slow at being started but when once
tho material was on the ground,
the work was pushed with all pos
sible speed, and it now lays with
the city to complete the approaches
both o-n the east and west Bides.
That oil the east Bide will require
quite a little dirt la order to bring
the street up to the grade of the
bridge, while on the wast Bids there
will only be required about one
day's work with a team. The work
of grading started this morning, and
before the end of the week all the
work should be completed.

REPORTS OVERDRAWN
la tho opinion of A. E. Harris,
Alaska representative of the Chi
cago, St. Paul and Milwaukee Rail
road, who returned from the west
ward to Juneau on the North
western, conditions are no 'worse
at Anchorage than they are In a
great many other places throughout
the country, "There is no founda

out there are without sufficient food ^
and tha* they can't get work," Baid
Mr. Harris today. "Wages aren't
very good, it la true, but there'a
plenty of work for the fellows who
want to work, ajad there'a not the
slightest dangeT of anyone paving
