ORDER ROUTING
MAIL . BY WAY
BROAD PASS
(From Fairbanks News Miner)
An order has been issued by the
postoffice department discontinuing
the service contracted for by the
Brower stage line, on May 31 of this
year, and from October 31, the date
when the Gibson summer contract
^ ends, mail for Fairbanks and Interior
Alaska will be routed via Broad pass
over the Alaska railroad and will be
transported by private carriers be
# tween the ends of the steel. Brower
is given an allowance of one month’s
extra pay in return for the discontinu
ance of his contract. There has been
agitation for nearly two years by the
people of Nenana to try and have
mails for the Interior routed by the
government railroad but . the depart
ment has continued to favor the Rich
ardson highway route until now\ This
spring, wrhen it was rumored that such
a change w'as to be made, the local
commercial club wared the postoffice
department protesting against any
change in the routing, and in return
received a wire stating that no change
wras contemplated at present. In the
last mail, however, Postmaster Deal
received an order discontinuing the
Brow-er contract, and two orders, is
sued May 13, to the effect that the
mail wall go via the Broad pass after
October 31 next.

of mail by the railroad is as follows:

VIOLA DANA SUNDAY
AND BIG FAIRBANKS
PRODUCTION MONDAY
Ethel Clayton makes a stunning
chorus girl. If you doubt it you only
need to see “Pettigrew’s Girl,” repeat
ed tonight at the Empress. And then
there’s also a two-reel Sennett comedy,
“The Foolish Age,” wherein the poor
blacksmith gets his.
Sunday night Viola Dana in ‘The
Parisian Tigress,” a vivid picture of
Mfe in Paris before the war, reveal
ing the heart of Paris, where the ■
Apaches, menace of the slums, lead
their stealthy life of the night. Aiola
Dana, as a child of the gutter, is mar
velous. She gives a wonderful exhi
bition of the famous Apache dance.
Her fiery abandon has won her the
name of “The Parisian Tigress,” and
well she lives pu to it. It’s a play
full of rapid changes, light and
shadow, enchanting with its pathos
and naive humor. The best thing this
\ersatile little star has ever done. A
Pathe News and an Educational red
complete the Sunday program.
Coming next week is the sumptuous
Douglas Fairbanks production, “His
Majesty the American,” the jolliest.
mixup ever screened. It has a real
plot, a pretty love story with dainty
Marjory Daw, and a world of amazing
and amusing action. It’s the biggest
event of Cordova’s film season.
Springs and cots below cost at
