New Douglas Enterprises
With the beginning of November, a
number of new business ventures have
been launched in Douglas. They indi
eate growth and progress and are
worthy of special notice.
Thd Alaska Drug company, a tlrm
composed of Dr H. C. DeVigbne, D.J. ;
Kinzie and James Daniels, having pur
chased from the Rdmiuistrator the ;
store of Julius Heubner, asks for recog
nition. The stock has beeu enlarged
and made complete, the store room has
beeu repainted, decorated and enlarged.
An attractive feature is a ladie>' rest
room. Mr. K. b. Bell, a practical phar
macist of large experience, is iu charge
of the establishment, with Miss Maida
Cornwell as assistant.
The Republic is a refreshment em
porium opened up ou Front street, op
posite the Douglas hotel, by William
Auderson and Ed Ringuette. A com
plete stock of the best brands of liquor j
is offered to the thirsty public. A
specialty Is made of Wuerzbnrger beer.
Cassie Secrest will also cater to the
wants of the public in a neat, new
buildiug ou Front street belonging to
A. Murray. The interior furnishings .
are especially attractive. The bar is iu
Mission, made of uative woods, by L.G.
Thomas.
Just across the street is the estab- .
llshment of Chas. Stevens and Tony '
(Justi. These young men are not
strangers in the community and show
their coufldeuce in the town by the in
vestment of their cash.
Julius Mohler has leased the Nata
torium and will open up a roller skat- ;
ing rink. He has ordered a lot of the i
late model skate and bought a mechan- i
ical orgau. Some gay times are in store
for the youug people of the Island this j
winter. Under the new management
it is probable that the hall will be open
for basket ball contests and the like.
The Fair
While the sale held by the Ladies'
League Thursday Dight is not especially
prepared with reference to Christmas,
there will be some things there which
will make very dainty gifts. The fore
handed will take notice and be on baud
early. There are a few hand-em broid
ered liueu haudkerchiefs which can be
purchased in sets of three for ladies or
gentlemen. Every man will want to
wear a poinsettia, the popular Cali
fornia flower, wbich has lately been
produced in Douglas. The old fash
ioned fish pond has received a new set
ting and comes out as "fishiug through
the ice." This popular pastime will
have a new fascination, as there are
said to be several new kinds of fish that
can be caught.
The ladies have met weekly for many
months and the public may be assured
that they have not labored in vain.
They should be generously patronized.
The League is the oldest woman's or
ganization on the Island and has often
shown its public spirit and practical
helpfulness.
"Happy" Calaham has severed his
connection with the Juneau Record, to
assume the hr.mble station of a manu
facturer of "bricks without straw."
This is a literal fact, for Mr. Calaham
has decided to devote his energies to
the making of bricks and building
blocks. His "raw material" will come
largely from the sands from which the
mills at Treadwell have extracted the
gold. This is an industry new to Doug
las, but well worthy of encouragement.
Jack Henson succeeds Mr. Calaham as
? chaser of news.
School Notes

The botany class had its first expedi- ;
tion Thursday afternoon and weut as
far as the prairies.
Elvin Kearn entered Miss* Werner's
room last week.
The giant swings are now finished
with wooden handles at. various heights
so !? hat more than one pupil can swing
at a time.
The girls' basket ball team held a
meeting Monday eveuing to decide ou
their suits. Black middy blouses
trimmed wllh red were choseu for the
High school team and black and white
lor the eighth grade team. The feuits
will be fiuished some time next week,
by which time the girls hope to have
the Natatorium to practice in.
Halloween passed quietly as tar as
the school grounds were concerned. No
damage was done, though the merry
makers tied knots in the ropes of the
girls' swing.
