ANOTHER SMALL BLAZE
CALLS OUT DEPARTMENT
This afternoon a stream of smoke
was seen issuing from the home of
Will J. McDonald, near the old cable
office, at the foot of C avenue. The
alarm was immediately turned in, the
siren was blown, and the members of
the department responded at the fire
hall, but, as usual, no one knew where
the fire was for some little time. This
is the second instance recently in
which the need of a fire alarm system
or the districting of the town has been
emphasized.
The fire evidently started in the
bedroom, and by the time the depart
ment arrived the house was filled with
dense smoke. As no one was at home
at the time, its origin is unknown.
The loss sustained was slight.

LAND OFFICE OFFICIAL
GOES TO WESTWARD
George A. Parks, for several years

Mr. Parks has been' in the Alaska
field service for about twelve years,
and has spent a considerable portion
of this time in the Interior. He is
thoroughly familiar with the land of
fice work in all sections of the terri
tory, and the promotion is well mer
ited by him. Those who have worked
with him and know the quality of his
service say that he was the only logi
cal man for the place.
In his new job he will have charge
of all special agents and timber cruis
ers in Alaska and will direct their op
erations. As chief of the field service
he is also trustee for a number of
coast townsites, and will be in charge
of all investigations relative to govern
ment lands throughout the territory.
POPULAR YOUNG COUPLE
ARE UNITED IN MARRIAGE
Last evening the Presbyterian
church was the scene of a very pretty
wedding, the contracting parties being
two of Cordova’s popular young peo
ple. Rev. A. G. Shriver performed the
ceremony which united for life Della
Frances Fraisure and Mr. Theodore
Clarence Matson. The bridesmaid
was Miss Ethel Graham, and Mr. Fred
Frederickson acted as best man. The
bride was given away by her father,
Mr. J. J. Fraisure.
The church was beautifully deco
rated with flowers and plants. Miss
Bessie DeLeo sang a solo before the
ceremony, and Miss Mildred Graham
played the wedding march.
Immediately after the ceremony the
bridal party repaired to the home of
Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Fraisure, where a
wedding repast was served.
Mr. and Mrs. Matson start out in
life under the most favorable circum
stances, and the Daily Times joins
their many friends in extending con
