This general pressure distribution has been attended by precipitation along the coastal regions from the Aleutians southeastward to Sitka, and by generally fair weather over the remainder of the field of observa- tion. The barometric pressure distribution over Alaska and the North Pacific Ocean this morning would indicate that the weather Sunday will be somewhat similar to today’s weather. Mrs. A. M. Rice, a former teach- er and a resident of Baton Rouge, La., arrived on the Aleutian and is stopping over at Juneau for ten days before proceeding on her tour| which will take her to Interior points before returning home. Mrs. Rice said at the Gastineau| Hotel: “I'm for seeing our own| country first and the marvelous scenery and grandeur of Alaska be- fore thinking of a BEuropean tour. In my opinion we excel in beauty and sights that any country may show.” She sees a great possibility for development in the Territory. e *. $ | attle; ] Tex Leonard, City; _C. ; J. SEEING.
