The sum in- | volved in ‘the transaction was not made public. Mr. Stocker said he was not ready to make publi¢c his plans for the use of the building other than that his business will be moved to the Louvre as soon as the, necessary alterations and im- provements can be made. The Louvre was one of the most noted buildings in the early history of Juneau. The original building was constructed by Mr. Ashby in the early 90%s. In it were a saloon, dance hall, and theatre. Its stage and boxes are still standing and were consid- ered among the finest in the north. It shared with the old Opera House the reputation of being the finest recreation and amusement places in the Terri- tory. destroyed by fire a few years after it was erected and the |present stuecture was built and continued for many years as one of the leading local amusement centers. In recent years, until lately, it was used as a depart- ment store building. — e ——— SNEAKING SENIORS Members of the Senior: Class of the Juneau High: School are play- ing hookey today, the oczasion being the annual Senior Sneak Day.
