PLENTY OF FUN
SMOKER
The Cordova Volunteer Fire De
partment were the hosts at a smoker
given in their gymnasium on Satur
day night. There was a large attend
ance of invited guests and the fire boys
left nothing undone for thelir pleasure
and comfort. The social commit
tee was on the job every minute, and
the fun was fast and furious, with
plenty of liquid and solid refreshments
on the side, to music furnished by
George Dooley and Geo. Hickman.
The program was varied, and start
ed off with a three-round go between
Eckstrom and Tucker, which was de
clared a draw. In the wrestling
match Billy, the Jap boy at the Horse
shoe, won three straight falls from
Frank, his opponent. L. Lovseth next
rendered a fine violin solo, and Thos.
Glllis gave several up-to-date vocal
selections. Warren Taylor and Roy
Anderson gave a fast and furious
three-round exhibition of the manly
art. Charles Game's exhibition of
Indian club swinging was clever,
while Verne Elliott and Lewis Laska,
Cordova’s coming young artists, scored
with one of the latest songs.
The main event of the evening was
the three-round boxing contest be
tween E. F. Medley and George Ken
nedy, both of whom were primed and
ready for action. They gave a very
enjoyable exhibition and so far as we
have been able to learn the referee
has not as yet rendered a decision.
Frank Jones rendered a vocal solo
and Oscar Larson and J. Burton told
Swedish stories. George Hickman
and A1 John sparred for three rounds,
and the evening's entertainment con
cluded with trapeze work by Billy
Horseshoe and Phillips.

RAILROAD ROY!
The Cordova club had little troubl
defeating the railroad team at the ba
park yesterday afternoon. In fat
they had a walk-over. This wa
largely due to the fact that the rai
roaders were weak In the box. Eddt
Walsh started In to do the twlrllni
but was wild and Ineffective. After
couple of innings Warren Taylor su
ceeded him as slab artist, but the pac
the Cordovans had set was too fas
and nothing could stem the tilde
lick Kerwood was in the box for tw
innings, when Stephens relieved hln
and after he had settled down he ha
his opponents at his mercy. Afte
the riine innings had been played th
scroe stood 21 to 4 In favor of Cordi
va, as the following shows.

GAS BOAT IS SAFE
BBT OTTEB
MISSING
i
The big gas boat Edith G., which
( left Juneau April 12, and was report
i ed sunk and the crew drowned oil
i Yakutat, has arrived in Cordova foi
repairs. She is in command of
Captain Greene, the three men with
him having refused to continue the
Journey after the boat put Into Yak
utat.
Capt. Greene had an exceptionally
, rough trip, with but one good day up
to the time he arrived at Dixon Har
bor. He he was compelled to lay up
for six days, having made several un
successful attempts to leave there. At
Anguay river he lost his rudder and
the boat met with several other mis
haps.
Here he met the launch Otter, from
Raymond, Wash, and they started out
tovether, but he finally lost track of
her, she being some distance behind.
Later Capt. Greene turned back and
went over the course, but was unable
(to find any trace of the Otter, and it is
liis belief that its one occupant must
have fallen asleep and been plunged
overboard in one of the lurches that
the boat took.
Harmon & Deever are today mak
ing the necessary repairs to the Edith
G„ which is a trim little craft with
a 14-horse power, two cylinder Regal
engine. Capt. Greene is on his way
to Anchorage.
