GOING OUT FOR
HER FIRST TRIP
Among the passengers who arrived
in Cordova on Saturday night’s train,
bound for the Outside, was Mrs. J. J.
Dwyer of Fairbanks. Mrs. Dwyer was
formerly Miss Laura Burnette of Skag
'*ay and Fairbanks. When a small
child she came north with her par
ents, twenty years ago, and has never
been Outside since.
Mr. Dwyer left for the Outside last
fall, and Mrs. Dwyer is now on the
way to join her husband in Seattle.

German Report
BERLIN, April 15.—After some se
vere fighting, the British were forced
to abandon Neuve Eglise, a position
for the possession of which there has i
been an almost constant battle for
several days.
-»
Use less wheat and meat.w Buy locjil
foods. Serve just enough. Use what
Is left.
Charged with having failed to
register as an alien enemy, Gustav
Priesner, formerly a druggist at Mc
Carthy, is reported to have been ar
rested at Fairbanks. Priesner some
weeks ago attempted to go Outside,
but was prevented by the authorities.
He then started over the trail for the
Chandlar district, where, he said, he
was going to open a trading post and
look into some mining property. When
taken into custody he had $20,000
in cash on his person.
Whether he is to be returned to the
Third division or sent to an intern
ment camp in the States is not known.
He was accompanied by another alien
enemy, who was taken into custody
also.
INTERIOR PEOPLE”
ARRIVE AETER ONE
HARD TRAIL TRIP
Twenty-one days on the trail, a
number of passengers from the In
terior arrived in Cordova on Satur
day evening’s train, after experienc
ing the hardest trip encountered by
anyone during the wh\)le winter. The
delay was due to severe storms and
the flooding of the trail between Mil
ler’s roadhouse and Yost’s, where for
nine days the road was covered with
four feet of water. Among those ar
riving from the Interior were: C. W.
Moore and H. W. Parmelee, repre
sentatives of the Yukon Gold Com
pany, in charge of the work at Ruby;
Mrs. Parmelee, Mrs. J. J. Dwyer, John
H. Carlson, W. G. Mitchell, Jack Gam
ble, Jack Shanks, Fred Fetty, Max
Manger, John Junkin, Tom King and
Edward G. Morrissey, all of Fair
banks.
Some of the party enjoyed the hos
pitality of John Bauman, the propri
etor of Miller’s roadhouse, for nine
days, at the rate of $2 per meal and
$2 per bed.
PIONEER CANNERY
Equipped with a new elevator for
carrying the clams from the tugboat
to the plant, and with other new ma
chinery installed, the Pioneer can
nery, the largest clam-canning fac
tory in the world, started its spring
operations the latter part of last
week. The starting up of the can
nery gives employment at good wages
to more than 200 people, and booms
the business of “the best town in
Alaska" accordingly.
Other canneries are also starting
operations in the vicinity of Cordova,
and their payrolls, too, will help busi
ness conditions materially.
Last season the Pioneer cannery,
with a capacity Qf 1,500 cases of clams
per day, turned out upwards or 50,000
cases of delicious sea food, and with
the early start this season there is
every reason to believe that this will
be increased greatly in 1918.
Clam beds on the Cordova flats will
provide sufficient product to keep
these canneries busy for many years,
the officials of the company say, al
though in a few years it will be nec
essary to haul the clams considerably
farther than at present.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 51.—Boy
Scouts in the Liberty loan campaign
will comprise the “mopping up”
forces” of the drive. A telegram from
Washington to Governor James K.
Lynch of the Federal Reserve Bank
states that the most important work
assigned to Boy Scouts will not be
gin until April 27, and will continue
until May 4.
Imperative instructions have been
issued to Boy Scouts in all parts of
the country not to interfere with the
work of the general committees, and
that their actual campaign for Liberty
bond sales will not begin until the
grown-ups have made an extensive
campaign. Boy Scouts are to round
up and bring in the subscriptions
overlooked by the “shock troops.”

Food will win the war—produce it.
Under orders to report to Fort Lee,
Virginia, Lieutenant George Parks ar
rived in Cordova from the Interior
yesterday. Mr. Parks is well known
in Cordova and in almost every town
in the territory, as he has been mak
ing annual trips through the North for
the past nine years as representative
of the general land office.
After applying for a commission
in the engineer corps, Mr. Parks was
ordered to proceed to Juneau to take
his examination before Major Mehaf
fey, former engineer officer of the
Alaska road commission. His quali
fications were found to be highly sat
isfactory, and he was commissioned
as a first lieutenant.
General Richardson, former head of
the road commission, is now stationed
at Fort Lee, and it is possible that
Lieutenant Parks will come under his
command.
