NEW SUPT, OF COALCONCERN ARRIVES HERE Evan Jones in Juneau on Way to Admiralty Island Coal Co. Property Evan Jones, ploneer man of Alaska and for the last years superintendent of the Healy River Coal Company at the Suntrana mines, who is to be in charge of the Admiralty Island Coal Company at Kootznahoo In- let, arrived here last evening on the steamer Aleutian Witn mr. erts, who has heen with him for many years, and who will also be at Kootznahoo The men plan to leave soon for the scene of activities, but have not yet made arrangements. They planned to take the Margnita from here last night, but arrived less than one hour too late Recognized as one of the best coal mine developers on the Pa- cific Coast and as having excep- tional ability in the laying out of mines, Mr. Jones has had many years of experience. He has been associated with coal de- velopment for nearly 35 years. Evan Jones was the president E. Rob- associated Jones is D. ille in the Matanuska veral years, and prev- jous to that was with several im- | portant concerns in the States For the last three years he ha been superintendent of the Healy | River Coal Company, and resign- ed his position there, effective the first of this month, to take over his new position with the Admiralty Island Coal Company. Speaking in reference to the possibilities at Kootznahoo, Mr. Jones declared the actual mining of the coal would present no dil- ficulties, and he was confident the quality was good. The only matter of doubt is the extent of the coal, he intimated, but ex- pressed his confidence in the suc- cess of the venture. Recently at Healy River he had produc- tion as high as 275 tons per day, he said. With the Mrs. Jones and who are now residing in An- c¢horage, will probably move to Juneau to make their home, Mr. Jones said. The Argo, Capt. Cedric Davis, may arrive here this week, ac- cording to Dr. Howe Vance, to take Mr. Jones and Mr. Roberts to Kootznahoo. She was expect-! ed to arrive here following a minor accident at the Inlet. A letter received by Dr. Vance announced damages to the boat were only slight, and necessary repairs were made after beaching the Argo. The camp at the mine site has been completed, and on April 13 the boat was in Kil- lisnoo to pick up the machinery aunloaded there by the Admiral Rogers. It was planned at that time to return to the mine, pump it out, and take out several sacks of coal to bring here as samples, Dr. Vance said today. He also said Capt. Davis is to leave the Argo, and take over a position as mate on the Anna Barron. — e Col. J. D.

The de- lightfully reckless feeling one has when economy is forgotten, and that first box or two is really purchased! The luxury of eating the rich red berries the first day they appear on the market is a luxury of more than the pocket- book, it is one of the heart, soul and mind. One feels a trifle guil- ty sepnding so much, “when a later they will really be better and much cheaper” — but talk as one will, nothing takes the place of the thrill of biting nto the first strawberry of the No amount of them in compensate for missing that rare treat. Juneau people apparently don’t believe in denying themselves, for word soon passed around town yesterday that the first straw- berries were on the market—and varried in price from 35 cents to 40 cents a box, and soon later the crates received by the differ- ent markets in town were nearly empty—and the laggard house- wife had but half a dozen boxes to choose from instead of several dozens.
