OUNCE III WIRELESS
UNTIL TIDE RISES
A most delightful dancing party was
given by Mr. and Mrs. John Gillis at
the Wireless station on Saturday even
ing. Mr. Gillis met the guests at
the ocean dock with a launch, and a
large life boat to convey them to
Whltshed. It was an ideal night, the
bay placid, and the ride was greatly
enjoyed. Mrs. Gillis and the boys at
the station receied the party at the
landing, escorted them to the house,
and later all repaired to an adjoining
building which had been transformed
into a ballroom for the occasion. This
was beautifully and appropriately dec
orated with flags, lanterns, festoons of
rope and evergreens. The terpsi
chorean devotees made merry until
the hour of midnight, when the dreamy
waltz and inspiring two-step were in
terrupted just long enough to partici
ipate in an elaborate supper, after
which dancing was resumed until the
rise of the tide, when the guests re
—--- ■
luctantly left the scene of so much I <
pleasure and started for home. The '
sun was just rising, the water like a t
sheet of gass, and the reflection su- j
perb—all of which added an addition- 1
al charm to this very enjoyable affair. (

PRESS MESSAGES
CABLE
Capt. B. O. Lenoir, in charge of the
signal corps in Alaska, has notified the
newspapers of the territory, through
First Lieu Lieutenant Clarence 'A.
Dougherty, of Valdez, mat messages
at press rates will hereafter be ac
cepted subject to any delay occa
sioned by giving precedence to offic
ial messages and to commercial bus
iness filed at the full rates. If more
press matter is presented than can
be handled expeditiousjy under these
conditions it will take its turn and
be forwarded as soon as possible.
The order states that tuts proced
ure may be necessary on some occa
sions, due to the greatly increased
number of words received by the
press. It was suggested that the
day press rate be increased to dou
ble what the rate is now, and that
the present rate be made to apply to
night press. This, however, was'not
favorably considered and the papers
are now requested to direct their cor
respondents to file their reports at
such a time as will least interfere
with the movement of paid commer
cial and official business.
