The strychnine was found in meat found in the stom- achs of the dogs examined. All eight victims of the suspected dog poisoner were from the vicinity | of the Southeast Alaska Fair Build- ing, according to Chief Junge. Steps are being taken to apprehend the perpetrator of the crime, Junge stated. A year ago a similar instance of dog poisoning took place in Juneau, occurring however, over a period of days and in different parts of the city, Junze said JUNEAU SHELTER ILLUSTRATED IN LIFE MAGAZINE Alaska’s first air raid shelter, constructed in the backyard of the Dr. W.
