Presbytery Adjourns.
After an interesting session in j
which several matters of local import
ance were disposed of the Yukon,
Presbytery adjourned at noon today.
Rev. A. J. Shrivel- and Dr. J. H. Cor.- i
dit, the visiting ministers, both ex
press themselves as being highly elat-1
ed with the reception tendered them ‘
by the people of Anchorage and were
specially expressive in their remarks
of the courtesy of Rev. and Mrs. J. L.
McBride.
Among the worthy matters taker,
up at this time was the advisability
of purchasing a dog team for Rev.
Hughes to use this winter in his trav
els among the outlying districts.
Rev. McBride advises that a Comity
conference will be held in Seattle in
October to divide the territory of
Alaska up in such a way that every
district will be churched by some de
nomination and arrangements will be
made to keep different sections of the
territory under the same denomina
tion. This will allow co-operation
and will work to the mutual advan
tage of the different denominations.

liood Program Prepared.
A full and complete list of the con
tests arranged for Labor day, togeth
er with the prizes offered will be pub- j
lished in The Daily Times tomorrow I
and will run all week. Arrangements
for this program are being well-han- i
died and the boys have several origi- i
nal and interesting events that they !
expect to pull off that have already I
aroused keen competition. The rock-;
drilling contest with a prize of $200
for the fastest time promises to be
good, two strong teams have been en
tered for the tug of war and other
events equally as important will be
part of the day’s program.
One particular event that is causing
much speculation is the prize of the
lumber for a three-room dwelling for
any couple who will be married pub
licly. It is understood that several
couples have signified their intention
of taking advantage of this offer.
Several of the business houses have
started the work on their floats and
many of the merchants will be repre
sented.
Watch The Daily Times for further
particulars in regard to the program
for Labor Day.
