Alaska.- Y ukon-Pacif ic
Exposition,
The sale of $360,000 worth of exposi
tion bonds has removed the last ob
stacle to the success of the Alaska Yu
kon-Pacific Exposition and it is
certain that the 1909 fair will have the
distinction of being the first big expo
sition to be entirely completed in time
for the opening date. The
that is being made on the construction
of the buildings and grounds is a guar
antee that no detail will be left unfin
ished when the fair is formally opeued
June 1, 1909.
When it was announced that an ad
ditional $350,000 was required to carry
on the work outlined by the exposition
management the people of Seattle re
sponded promptly to the call for funds
aud the entire amount was subscribed
within a week after thé actual
now
progress
canvass
wss commenced. With this additional
fund on hand the management of the
exposition took immédiate steps to
large the scope of construction.
Already three of the permanent
buildings are finished and are ready to
be turned over to the University of
Washington at the cioee of the fair. By
the first of the new year the fôhrth per
marient building will be completed and
a number of the temporary structures
finished. The mining palace aud the
fisheries building and the hospital and
fire station are in use and the Oregon
building, the first state building to be
complete«!, is ready to receive exhibits,
Oregon will begin the shipment of its
exhibit about January 1. The first con
signment will be 3,000 boxes of apples,
which will be place«! in the cold storage
plant, in the basement of the Oregon
building, until within a few weeks of
the opening date.
Remarkable pr« gress has been made
on the construction of the California
state building, and this structure will
be completed not later than January 1.
Work has been commenced on the
Washington state building, which is to
be one of the permanent structures to
be turned over to the University at the
close of the fair.
The plans for the United States
en
gov
eminent building bave been approved
and the contract for the construction
will be awarded in about ten days.
Work on the grounds is in excellent
shape. Tlie site of 250 acres has been
entirely cleared aud graded and roads
and paths laid out. Acres of
lawns give refreshing appearance aud
the mild climate of Puget Sound will
make It possible to transplant a great
many of the more hardy flowers during
the winter months. There are in all
about a million plants in the greeu
houses and when these are set out aud
in bloom the grouuds » ill be a veritable
mass of beautiful flowers, clingiug vines
aud green shrubbery.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
IN ALASLA.
Within a few moDtbs, and probably
early In the spring, the towns of Wran
gell and Petersburg, Alaska, will be
placed In communication with the
United States snd the rest of the world
by wireless telegraph. Information has
just reached the offices of the United
States signal corps in Seattle that the
installation of wireless stations at the
above named places has been ordered
by the government, and the equipment
for the stations, consisting of dynamos,
instruments and poles, has already
been shipped from the east.
The stations to be erected at Wran
gell and Petersberg are links in a chain
of wireless depots which will in a short
time coverall parts of Alaska. Already
the United States government is cover
ing more inland territory by wireless
than auy other nation in the world,
and when the entire number of stations
proposed for Al.tska are completed,
Uncle Sam will boast the greatest num
ber of stations on the globe.
JACK LONDON'S NEW BOOK.
Jack London has just written a book
of 142,000 words eutitled"Martin Eden."
THE PACIFIC MONTHLY has
chased for $7,000 the serial rights for
this vivid story. It began in the Sep
tember number of THE PACIFIC MON
THLY aud will run for twelve mouths. 1
"Martin Edeu" is a character study— ]
the story of a fighter—a fighter as
newsboy in the alleys of San Francisco; i
a fighter as a rowdy in slams; and!
finally, a fighter for education and oui
ture, struggling against the odds of j
common birth aud vulgar environment, I
with a dbsperatiou of courage that pre- j
sents a powerful blending of brutality
of strength with sublimity of purpo-e
His inspiration is a woman of the
higher sphere of life, but bis motive is
the mighty impulse that animates a soul
and brain boru to expaud until fetter
ing ignorauce is sundered and igucble
influence is trampeled underfoot.
It is not too much to say of "Martiu
Edeu" that it possesses more of fascina
tiou aud virility, grips the imagination
and the tympatbies more keenly, and
imparts more of courage, than any book
produced in years.
