NKXANA, Sept. 1. Nenana was
threatened bv what might have turned
out to be a serious conflagration but
for ‘tin* timely action of the fire d«
1 partment. Shortly after 1 o’clock yes
terday morning smoke and flames
wen* seen issuing from the walls sur
rounding tin* bake oven of the Tavern
cafe, in the Roberts block. An alarm
was turned iti and tin* volunteer fire
department responded quickly.
A line of hose was laid and hold in
readiness. Several members of the
department took the chemical into the
building and after a short time had
the lire under control. Captain Fred
I'ouse of the launch Victory seized
a hand chemical and alone did good
work in keeping the blaze from
spreading out on mu* side- of the build
ing until the firemen could come
ft. his aid The damage done to the
building and contents will be* only
nominal.
Considerable* apprehension was felt
by the business men and others in
adjoining blocks, and many started
to pack up what movable goods they
could. \ stiff breeze was blowing to
ward tin* river, which would carry tlu*
fire* to fin* main business portion of
tin* town, shuold it get beyond con
, trol. Situated in the Roberts block
are tin* Nenana club and many offices.
The' contents of the club room and
the* offices were not damaged to any
« xtent, it being only from the* rough
handling in the removal of the fur
nishings.
Nenana at present is without ade
quate water fac ilities, and should the
chemical have arrived on the scene
much later, there is no doubt that the
entire business section of the town
would have* been destroyed, entailing
e loss of thousands of dollars to the
merchants and property holders.

ENGLISH SLACKERS BEING
j ROUNDED UP IN IRELAND
1 DTHUX, Sept. !♦. The rounding up
| of the Kngllsh slacker* who came to
Ireland to escape conscription is pro
(•ceding thoroughly, hut has not pro
duced anything like tlx* number of
men that most people imagined to he
available. Kstltnates running as high
as .‘in.oiMi were at one time current,
hut the best opinion now fixes the
number at one-fifth of that figure.
The deportation of these people
xns quite popular. Some of them are
supposed to have taken to the hills
to avoid arrest, and there are rumors
in Dublin that the Dublin and Wick
low mountains are affording them
j shelter.

capped this year owing to a lack of
water, it being Impossible to sluice to
any great extent The Nolan creek
benches, which usually add materially
lo the camps' output, are not being
worked very extensively this season,
and as a consequence the production
will he considerably less Ibis year.
Myrtle creek, which lias always
been considered a steady producer
and a stand-by. is busy as usual,

by the open cut method, and on some
of them two shifts are employed. It
j is expected that this creek will turn
out well ttiis season

j there, is working two shifts and re
i ports fair pay. and will continue his
operations to the season's end
