Village Gossip
By MARY BAEN WRIGHT
The Leap Year festival of the
“Midnight Sons”—“an unorganized or
ganization of disorganization, or, in
other words, benighted bachelors,
grass widowers, youths, unattachables,
disattachables and never was:es of the
Northland Club of Cordova, Alaska,”
was held last night in the club rooms,
and proved to be a very brilliant and
enjoyable affair. Programs, designed
by the Times staff and Edward Med
ley, were decidedly clever. A very
pleasant feature of the evening was
a beautiful solo, sung in Italian by
Mrs. O’Brien, to an accompaniment
played by Mrs. Hubbert. The music
for the dancing was furnished by
Don C. Fairman, piano, and Charles
Rogers, drums. Refreshments consist
ed of crab salad, sandwiches, olives,
pickles, coffee, cake and punch. After
they were served. Mrs. O’Brien was
prevailed upon to sing again. She
sang the very popular Metropolitan
air, “O Sole Mio,” and responded to
an encore with Shubert’s “Hark, Hark,
the Lark.” The committee in charge
of the evening’s arrangements were
Messrs. Medley, Nye, SupheHin, Wol
king and Mueller. Those present
were: Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert, Mr. and
" Mrs. Roy De Leo, Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Tracy, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Scott, Mr.
and Mrs. Jack Sapiro, Rev. and Mrs.
E. P. Ziegler, Mr. and Mrs. R. H. L.

on a hike. ,

Mr. and Mrs. Walter Stoesser re
Evans, after a month’s stay in Anchor
turned to Cordova last night on the
. age, where Mr. Stoesser went with
Captain Lathrop to put improvements
on the Lathrop building. They report
magnificent weather in Anchorage.
Captain Lathrop will probably return
on the Alameda. On their way home
the Stroessers came by train to Sew
ard. On coming out of the theatre
they were greeted by a shrill cry of
“That’s them!” from the leader of a
band of boys armed with tin cans
and sticks. “Naw, they ain’t that far
along yet!” bawled another. A minute
later the boys located their prey in the
crowd—Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Malloy,
late of Cordova, and pandemonium
ensued.

Mrs. Esther O’Loughlen, Miss Eliza

Mrs. Rudolph Elmquist and little
daughter were passengers on the
Alaska to Valdez, where she used to
teach school before her marriage. Ser
geant Elmquist will go to Valdez soon
for his discharge, and will return to
Cordova with his family,

Cordova may possibly be observing
preacherless Sundays ere long. No
successor is yet in view for Rev. E. G.
Shriver, who left recently for a new
pastorate at Cle Elum, Wash., nor for
Rev. E. P. Ziegler, who will leave soon
to spend a year in the East, and
Father McMillan can give his Cordova
parishoners only a part of his time.
The Christian Scientists will continue
to meet, but as that organization does
not employ ministers, Cordova bids
fair to be without preachers for at
least a part of the time.

Numerous signs may be noticed
around town that the call to clean up
and beautify yards is not going un
deeded. A committee is to be ap
pointed, consisting of six disinterested
judges—three men and three jvomen—
to make the awards for prizes for the
most attractive yards, on a date which
will be announced later.

Donald McCrae has gone to Katalla

Miss Bessie White, who has been
commercial teacher in the high school
here during the term just finished,
sailed for Seward on the Alaska and
upon arriving there Wednesday eve
ning was married to Mike B. Malloy.
The marriage comes as a complete
surprise to all except Miss White’s
closest friends. Mr. Malloy left Cor
dova several weeks ago for Seward
to work for the commission. For
three years previous he had lived here
in Cordova, where his kindly heart and
jolly disposition won him many
friends as well as a bride. Miss
White is a Michigan girl, who came
here last September. She taught six
years in Pittsburg. Her pupils here,
with whom she was very popular,
heard of her plans and hurried down
to the Alaska Tuesday morning just
in time to give her their kindest
wishes. They are going to send her
a handsome present of silverware as
a keepsake of her stay in Cordova.

Dr. W. H. Chase returned Wednes
day evening from a trip to Hinchin
brook island.

Miss Mary Edelbrock will leave to
morrow on the Watson for Kodiak on
a sight-seeing trip. She will return
to Cordova on the same ship, and
after spending a few days here will
leave for Fairbanks, thence up the
Yukon to Dawson, and out to Skag
way over the White Pass railroad.
From Skagway she will sail south, her
final destination being her home city,
San Diego. Miss Edelbrock during
her stay here has made many friends,
who regret that she is leaving.
* * *
E. A. Rasmussen of Skagway arrived
on the Alaska to look after business
affairs. He is president of the bank
of Alaska, which has four establish
ments—at Skagway, Wrangell, Cor
dova and Anchorage. From Cordova
he will go on to Anchorage.

Miss Katherine Boyce wended her
way Tuesday evening to the home of
her schoolmate, Miss Margaret Fos
ter, in answer to Peggy’s phone call
to “come on over and bring that pat

Churchill, Peggy Foster, Sam Smith,
I James Dennis, William Mickelasky,

Ziegler and Mr. and Mrs. Foster.
Taffy pulling furnished much enjoy

on Victrola records and danced, be

which was “packing Miss White’s
shower-chest.” Miss Boyce will leave

with her parents. She will be great
