PIONEERS ACTIVE
McCarthy will celebrate the
Fourth of July in a fitting man
nner.
This was decided on at the
last meeting of the McCarthy
Igloo, Pioneers of Alaska, who
will this year take full charge
of the arrangements to make
the day a pleasant one for the
home folks and the visitors.
A program will be gotten up
very shortly by a special com
mittee and it is safe to say that
ihe principal event will be a
baseball match between McCar
thy and Kennecott.
Baseball enthusiasts at Ken
necott this season are many and
two crack teams are ready for
play. One of these will probably
play a match at Cordova on the
Fourth and the other will play
McCarthy on that day.
There has been some talk about
an excursion running to Cordova
from Kennecott on the Fourth
but Jas. Dennis, Captain of the
Kennecott Baseball League,
said when interviewed yesterday
that he had no knowledge of it,
tps far as he knew only Urn team
would make the trip to the
Coast.

there to show cause, if any there

Sections 1, ?, and 3, Chapter 12

value of $4,000.00 be set aside

the said widow sets forth the

tenance of herself and any minor
