Juneau Plans To
Entertain Haines
Juneau, June 22 ? Two big fea
tures were added to the Juneau 4th
;of July celebration last evening
; when a cablegram from the com
manding officer at Fort Seward
notified the committee of the com
ing of the 30th Infantry, lT. S. A ,
regimental band and baseball team,
accompanied by officers, their fam
ilies and a large number of enlisted
| men. Leaving Fort Seward the I
morning of the 3rd. the army steam
er Peterson will be loaded to her
capacity with officers, ladies and en
listed men, all bent on taking from
Juneau the baseball championship of
| Southeastern Alaska The same ev
ening the steamer Georgia will sail
from Haines with another crowd of !
rooters, all bent on supporting the
crack baseball team from the army
post.
The negotiations for the band
iind baseball team were under wa>
a wevk and the message last even-]
ing assures the success of the mon
ster celebration.
Another remarkable feature ofj
the celebration is the interest dis
played in the cannery tender race1
by the cannery men of this section,
and everything indicates that every
working cannery mill have a tender
in the race and will send in with
the boats a crowd of rooters. There
has been much rivalry among the
i.?nnerymen regarding the speed of
their boats Incidentally, the can
nerymen are Intent on showing the
people of Alaska that they will co
operate in local affairs.
The message from Colonel Mc
Clure. post-comniamler, is as fol
lows:
"Referring to your telegram of
the 13th instant, will be pleased to
accept your cordial invitation for
the 4th of July. Our transportation
facilities being limited by the small
carrying capacity of the Peterson,
a fen officers, ladies, the band and
onr baseball team will compose our
party Will arrive evening of the
3rd.
