"A very pretty wedding took place
Wednesday afternoon at the home of
the bride’s sister Mrs. Badger, whet:
Miss Florence Hull, daughter of the
late Judge L. Hull, of Sandusky, be
came the bride of Mr. Werley Earl
Dunkle, son of J. W. Dunkle, a prom
inent attorney of Pittsburg.
"The bride wore a gown of white
sik net trimmed with white satin and
carried bride's rosses and lilies of the
valley. The rooms were beautifully
decorated with smilax and poinsetta.
“The marriage was perfoomed by an
uncle of the bride, Rev. John Henry
Hull, of Kent. The bride was given
away by her uncle, J. A. Barber. The
ceremony was performed at 3 o’clock
in the presence of only the Immediate
relatives and friends, about twenty
two being present. J. W. Dunkle, of
Pittsburg, was one of the guests.
"The bride was presented with a
handsome silver dining set, china
ware and other gifts.
“The bride is a graduate of Oberlin
College with the class of 1908. Mr.
Dunkle is a graduate of the mining
department of Tale University, also
of the class of 1908. He is consulting
engineer of the Alaska Syndicate. He
met Miss Hull two years ago at Ken

Guggenheim office.
“Mr. and Mrs. Dunkle left that ev
ening on a wedding trip through the
eastern states. The early part of
\February they will leave for Cordova
where they will make their home.”

Maurice D. I^eehey writes to Ray
that Cordova has accomplished much
better publicity work In the effort to
get the government railroad than
Seward. The sister city has gone In
closely, he says, to all the facta and
can show every ounce of tonnage that
that could be procured on the Copper
Rive route. While he was In Wash
ington he learned that the Cordovans
were laying particular stress on the
supposed fact that the Susltna could
offer only agricultural possibilities.—

BREEZILY
NOTED
CHITINA, Jan. 16—The Arctic Bro
therhood hall, completed and free from
debt will be dedicated next Wednes
day night. The Rev. McBride will ar
rive on Monday's train, and will con
duct and direct the program. After
the dedication the A. B’s. will hold
open house, and all the ladies in town
are already engaged in preparing
things that are good to eat. If there
is any one in Cordova that needs a
good "square” and they can get to
Chitina in time, they will be well tak
en care of.
While driving Joe jF®88t®r’8 dog
team Irving Kennedy met with a pain
ful accident this wepk. The dogs
commenced to fight and Irving un
dertook to seperate them. They
were too busy to make any distinc
tions, and the result was that Irving
got one hand pretty badly chewed up.
Under the care of Dr. Smith the
wounds are healing nicely, and Irving
Shys that the next time he is going to
let them fight.
John C. Probst and R. E. Capers
were elected and intiated in the Arctic
Brotherhood on Wednesday night.
Brother Capjers made a very interat
ing talk on the Brotherhood of Man,
which was greatly enjoyed by the
members.
Owing to the pressure brought to
bear on them In favor of another
Masquerade Ball the Arctic Brother
hood decided to have one on St. Pat
rick’s day, and It promises to be better
than the one at New Year's. Many
new and orginal costumes are already
being made, and every one is looking
forward to a Jolly good time.
Johnnie Nelson, the popular man
ager of the Chitina Cash store took a
trip to Gulkana this week, calling on
his many customers en route. He
I tried every kind of locomotion from an
automobile to "l^ofing” It, and re
turned today.
Late arrivals from the Nelchina do
not bring any better reports than we
have been getting all year, but there
are a few men staying with It and
next year may show some develop
Mike Johnson is at Guikana with
Carl Whitman and Charlie Range's
outfits. He is taking them in from
here, as his experience on the Glacier
last year did not please him.
Latest reports as to the condition
of C. A. Simons, our fellow ownsman
who froze his feet coming from Su
shana, are that he must lose on foot
and some of the toes on the other. A
feeling of deep regret is over the
town where he is very deservedly po
pular, and until the foot goes we nre
going to hope for the best.

IIRAILRROAD
The 8eward Gateway la kept on the
move these days running down rail
road rumors, the latest being a yarn
to the effect that the government had
bought out the Copper River & North
western railway, of which that paper
says:
As an example of what we are to
expect from this lime forward the
following true story is heaven sent;
Chief Magistrate Almy of the town
of Seward, incorporated, came to the
Gatew'ay office during the noon hour
today saying that a telegram had ar
rived stating that the government had
purchased the Copper River and
Northwestern railroad. Asked for his
authority he named Cfty Attorney
Bindley Green and to prove his own
sincerity he went and brought Judge
Green to the office. Judge Green said
he had got hte story from Sydney
Anderson, cashier of the bank of Sew
ard, but Mr. Anderson, on being seen,
said he got the story from T. W.
Hawkins, banker and merchant. Run
ning it down still further it was found
that Mr. Tecklenburg of the Seattle
Bar had seen the telegram and that
he had gone to the Gateway office to
see If this paper had Information that
tallied with what he seen. However,
Mr. Teckdlenburg on being interview
ed said that he had not seen the tele
gram but that someone had come in
and told his bartender that such a
telegram had arrived. “I think ‘tis a
hoax" said he and he was sure right.
As a sequel to the story; It had
scarcely been written when Sam Graef
called up the office and said that some
one had called him up to say that Joe
Morris had received a telegram from
Bill Devine saying that the govern
ment had brought the railroad at Cor
dova and was going to run the road
from Chitina to the Matanuska. “First.
I heard about it" said Joe when he was
asked. Then came a message to the
office saying that Ous Borgen stated
that Judge Green had received the
telegram, but the Judge had already
entered a plea of not guilty with prima
facies evidence. The next man who
comas with a story like that will die
in his tracks.

DELAY IN HOMESTEAD
MATTERS LOOKED FDR
Homestead matters, it is announced
will probably suffer some further de
lay as the land office at Juneau has
as yet failed to receive definite in
instructlons as to whether the General
Homestead Laws shall be followed
with reference to surveyed lands ,or
whether the special Alaska Act shall
be followed; much confusion has
arisen as to whether the Alaska pro
codure shall be followed in view of
the fact that the lands are now sur
veyed.
