Streets of the Alaskan City Are All Paved with Plank. rrom the Washington Star. Juneau la not a pious town, not tvithstandinfir it has a Methodist a Presbyterian, nn Kplscopnllan, a Cath olic, a Greek and nn imiinn ni, all of them thrifty. Tlie fact is, Ju neau in a gooei aeal Parisian in its style, and is decidedly wieio open. Gambling places, saloons, dance hulls and dives abound, and they nppear to be a necessity of exlstlntr cemli tlons. The streets of Juneau, beyond the one at the water front, aro mostly uphill, and thov nn nil nnv,,i .. i.i. plank. Wagons aio few, ten in all, mil mere are platform sleds on low LI HUNG 8, 'kI Si ' J !

Thero aro twenty flvo horses In town nnd ono biiBey. Thero aro twenty bicycles, and Just where they can run Is not apparent. There is an opera house and a unique method of having shows In It. Livery Friday night It is open to the best People nt $t a seat, with selected tal ent from the variety shows of tho town, where the best people cannot Bo except tho men. Socially Juneuu Is quite uny. and pink and other hued teas prevail In tho afternoons, while assemblies, balls mid either functions tako up tho night time. On special occasions Hovveis are ordered from Seattle. There are twenty-five or thirty ladles who are prom inent In society, nnd entertain. Men nro plenty, but thero are few unmar ried women, nnd there Is an uigent demand for them. There aro two banks nnd tho stores nre very larRC, with flno window dis plays. One firm pays Its window trimmer $103 a month. "Wltnt 3.G00 slzc town In the stntcs does as well as thnt? Extensive ftocks aro carried running from $10,000 to $150,000, with annual sales running as hlch ns $330.- 000 nt .'etall. There Is a big business done In Indian curios, the Indians sell ing as high as $20,000 worth a yenr from their houses and on the streets. One excursion steampr lust year car ried out $3,000 worth of Indian bas kets. Tho press Is represented by Tho Dls patch (dally) and its weekly, Tho Meirnlng Jlecord, by K, C. Hussell, jr., a hustler; The Alaska Miner nnd The Tiuth aro weeklies. There nre two or three libraries and free reading rooms maintained by the cltlrens, and they nre well patronized. Dealers sell large quantities of paper back novels ns well, nnd In nil the periodicals of the Kast aro In eager demand. There Is no police force In Juneau, tho police function being In the linndi of deputy United States marshals, nnd there Is little disorder. Tho fact that a man can find trouble very easily It he Is looking for It acts as a deterrent to disorder, nnd scraps are few and far between. Nobody has been shot within a year. About a year ngo a deputy marshal was killed nnd three wounded. This seems to have cleared tho atmosphere morally. Nothing on earth could do it meteorologically, for Juneau has a climate that Is all cloud nnd fog and mist nnd ruin for about 3C7 dayt in the year. All kinds of hardy vegetables are raised mound the town, and one man has a lloral garden where roses and other flowers nourish ns the green bay tree. Prices are quite reasonable. Good board may be had at from $3 to $C n. week, and rooms at from $10 to $20 n month. Drinks are 23 cents each, except beer, which Is 15 cents, nnd cigars nre usually two for a quarter, but good S-cetit cigars are to be had, and the time-tried, fire-tested Pitts burg and Wheeling stogie can be had at "two fer," or $2 a hundred. A shave costs a quarter and n hair cut 50 cents. I Jest hotels, which have water, electric light, and all the mod ern improvements, charge $2 and $3 a day, and some very fair ns low as $1 a day. Juneau, 1000 miles from every where, Is a cheaper place to live In, comfort for comfort, than New York city Is, which is In tho midst of every thing. Tho town Is lighted by electricity from a fine plant, and It has water wot ks, supplied by mountain streams so high up that there Is force enough to throw water all over town. It Is cold water, too, and beautifully clear. Forty-five merchants and other per sons have telephones. A brass band of twelve pieces wakes the echoes now and then, and as long as the i do not complain nobody else ev or does. NUBS OF KNOWLEDGE.

HOW THE LEADERS SIAND Charles Rodriguez, 428 Webster nvenue. Oliver Callahan, 415 Vine street. David V. Btrtley, 103 West Market street. David C. Spencer, Bloomsburp;. Eugene Poland, 235 Walnut street. Arthur Kommerer, Pactoryvllle. Harry Heese, 331 Evans court. John P. Smith, 2032 Boulevard avenue. Miss Grace Simrell, Carbondale. Sidney W. Hayes, 022 Olive street. Edward Murray, 510 Hamm court. Pvlchard Roberts, 1303 Hampton street. There are two changes in the list of leaders in The Tribune's Educational Contest this morning. Kugene Bolund advances from seventh to fifth posi tion, leading Arthur Kemmerer by one point. Sidney W. Hayes, who has been out of the city for some time, Is again at wink and has advanced one point In tho list wheie he Is tied with Miss Grace Slmtell, both of whom are but one point behind John P. Smith. It is remarkable how close the con testants keep to each other, there be ing only a few points difference In each Instance. Whenever a contest ant succeeds In securing a yearly sub set Iptlon It usually works a remarkable change In the standing. Even a three months' subscription, In some In stances, has advanced one of tho work eis two places. There Is yet a good opportunity for those Who have fulled tn untei- H,n contest, or, entering have not shown results. No one should be discouraged to find that the people they had hoped to secure are already taking The Trlb une, or because a few have declined to subscribe. Perseverance always brings tesults nnd fiequently the te sults nil come at emce. Thei.se who nre not yet familiar with tho contest should re,il the conditions on the fourth page of this Issue nnd send tor a book of subscription blanks at once. CAMPAIGN WORK.
