NEWS NOTES J
The transference of Mr. Christen-1
sen and of the forest headquarters to
Seward, ami the naming of this port
as a port of entry show us how the
wind is veering. Next it may be the
court and marshal.
C. W. Winatedt, the architect, goes
out on the Watson.
In a recent write-up in outside (
papers Frank G. Carpenter says of
ficials of the department of agricul
ture have already tee ted the soils |
here.
The suggestion has been made to
the Gateway that many people who
might like to live in the open this
summer would wish to have some
steps taken to organize a tent colony
near the city. By having several
living near each other, it ts pointed
out, a very pleasant time might be
enjoyed and thievery from the tents
would be avoided. The Gateway is
willing to help towards this end if it
is so desired.
Several volunteers worked last
evening to prepare the lot near the
city hall for a playground. Or.
Komig and Sloan proved their belief
in the wholesome qualities of such a
place by making a big blutT with a
pick and shovel.
F. Lyons and family, and R. Mel
vin and family have gone to Quartz
creek, Kenai Lake, where they will
make their home in future. Each
party has taken up a homestead of
100 acres.
Lieut€»nant J. C. MehalTey of the
Alaska Road Commission will come
on the Alameda to talk road matters
over with Superintendent Anton Elite.
In a recent letter to the business peo
ple of Fairbanks Colonel Richardson
says the outlook for securing the half
million additional appropriation for
roads is bright.

FORMER ALASKAN
IN AERO SQUAD
Skagway Alaskan, April 22.—
Lieutenant Edward Gorrell, who was
ordered to the hospital a few weeks
ago to undergo medical treatment has
seen service in Alaska. He will no
doubt be remembered by former as
sociates and friends in Haines and
Skagway.
Lieut. Gorrell is in the aviation
corps of the United States army. He
was injured a few weeks ago while
out on a scouting party in the Sierra
Madre mountains in Mexico. When
found he was in a fatigued condition
under his machine trying to make
some repairs. No reports have been
issued as to his welfare since that
i
I time.
INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE
OPENS ITS SEASON
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
NEW YORK, April 26.—Relieved
of the Federal bugaboo which for two
years was a tremendous drag on its
finances and threatened complete dis
aster, the International League will
open its 1916 season today. Buffalo
plays at Richmond and Montreal at
Baltimore. The other four teams will
get underway tomorrow when Toronto
plays at Newark and Rochester at
Providence.
The schedule calls for 140 games,
the season closing September 17.
PERCY HAGEL, PREACHER
FAIRBANKS. — Many people in
Fairbanks, oldtimers of the Klondike
country, will remember Percy Hagel
and his father. Pere Hagel was for
years one of the leading attorneys of
Dawson and later removed to Winni
peg, where he made a big reputation
and fortune for himself. Hagel, the
younger, who was sentenced to serve
a term in the penitentiary for assist
ing a client to escape jail, has now
turned evangelist and is ready to save
the world, in quite as spectacular a
manner as Billy Sunday. In fact, he
is pilfering Billy Sunday’s line of
talk, but with less effect.—News

poem by Jamos Whitcomb Riley,

L. Motts, Lakewood, and read at a

“No matter then how all is mixed
In our near sighted eyes,
All things is fur the best and fixed
. Out straight in paradise.
“Then take things as God sends them ^
here,
And ef we live er die
Be more and more contenteder
Without a'askin’ why.”
