PASSING OF THE
FAMOUS BEAR'S NEST
?4?
TKEADWKLL. April 7.?The famous
old Bear's Nest, which stood for more
than twenty rears, something of an
eye-sore and more of a menace in the
way of fire danger, and which was
pulled down lust year. Is now threaten
ed with complete destruction. Mr. Fer
ris is today dynamiting the old ma
chinery which has stood idly rusting
away for a quarter of a century, and
having the broken parts carted to the
foundry where new castings will be
made from the wreck.
History savs that the Bear's Nest
was built by a German company, who
salted the workings and sold the prop
erty for a valuable consideration. De
velopment by a leasing company
showed valuable ore deposits. Now
the Treadwell company has a long
time lease on the property. Within a
month's time not a vestage will re
main of the historical structure and
soon even its history' will be swept
into the wastebasket of time .

A FINE NEW FRONT
FOR ISLAND HOTEL
! DOUGLAS, April 7.?Workmen are
| today taking out the old front of the
i Island Hotel and installing a new
plate glass front, which, altogether
with the other improvements, will
make the Island one of the prettiest
: places of public entertainment in the
i North.
i The new front will be set back from
I the street and richly finished. The
i lobby and billiard room has been sep
1 united from the buffet with a parti
i tion of exquisite design, the rooms be
| ing connected with two archways sup
! ported by pillars, all made from Alas
ka woods under the workmanship of
L. G. Thomas.
Mr. Baritello is carrying out his
ideas at considerable expense in re
modeling the hotel, but when finished
he will have the satisfaction of know
ing he has one of the handsomest plac
es in the North.
FERRIS STARTS BUILDING
FOUR NEW BUNGALOWS
DOUGLAS. April 7.?E. J. Dailey,
building contractor, yesterday began
the construction of four modern
four-room bungalows on the site of the
old Bear's Nest for D. H. Ferris. These
buildings are to be 24 x 34 feet, ground
measure and will be lathed and plas
tered and fitted with baths and toil
ets. They will be constructed for ren
tal purposes and in case tenants are
readily secured. It is Mr. Ferris' in
tention to add two or three more cot
tages on the rear of the lot. Mr. Bai
ley says the cottages will be ready for
occupancy within sixty days.
DOUGLAS WOMAN
SHOOTS AT HUBBY
DOUGLAS, April 7.?Mamie Harper
is in trouble again. This troublo dif
fers from her former troublos only in
seriousness, her former griefs result
ing from the samo cause?fondness
for drink and narcotics. This morn
ning at ubout three o'clock she cut
loose with a revolver and took a shot
at her husband, he being the favorite
target upon whom she practices when
ever John Barleycoru urges her to do
deeds of violence. Mainie has thrown
flatlrons und rolling pins at him in
the past, but her marksmanship has
been bad. and so it proved when she
shot at Ollle, for that is the given
name of her husband. She shot at
him, but the bullet went wild, almost
as wild as Mamie.
This afternoon Deputy Marshal Pels
arrested her and took her to Juneau on
the 2:15 ferry for the purpose of turn
ing her over to the U. S. marshal to
deal with.
Mamie Harper is a colored woman
and a few weeks ago was fined in the
municipal court for assault on Ollle
Harper, her husband.

VERY TAME AFFAIR

hour today, the voting in Douglas had
not taken much of a thrill, as far as
electioneering goes, but fifty-four
votes being cast out of a possible 292,

two hundred voters will exercise their
franchise, which will be something
more than cast lust year. No issues
of importance are being fought out,
the choice simply being a matter of
personal preference, as all the candi
dates are well known and esteemed
citizens.
