In a letter recently received by
Mrs. M. J. Cooney, her husband,
who is in charge of the party sent
out to locate and build a trail con
necting the rail heads ot the ISe.
nana and Anchorage divisions, writes
that the work is progressing very
favorably.
He says that a good trail has been
cut from Lignite to the summit of
the Nenana canyon and he expects to
carry the trail through as good a
grade to the upper end of the can
yon. The grade, he says, is good all
the way from Jack Singleton’s road
house to the highest point on the
canyon’s summit and thinks that one
horse will be able to haul from 12
to 15 hundred pounds easily. This
will be a conservative estimate, as
. Mr. Cooney knows all about horses
thoroughly and therefore is in a
j position to judge accurately just
what they can do.
I The highest point on the can
; yon’s summit is not over 800 feet
i above the level of the water in the
' river, he says.
He says he is working hard, but
. is living well and feeling fine. The
; trail when completed will be a good
| one. He does not indicate when
: the trail will be completed or just
'when he will return to town.

FOR FAIRBANKS TODA1
E. P. Allard, who has the contract
for carrying the mails on the winter
service, between Fairbanks and
Tanana, left, this morr/ng for the
upper town with his stock, over the
winter trail and immediately after
his arrival there will commence oper
ations.
The first shipment of mail on
this route was forwarded a few
days ago by launch in charge of
Roy Lund, who was to take it down
river until he met the up-bound
launch and exchanged mail with it,
Roy passed through Nen&na two
days ago and is expected to arrive
here on the return trip sometime
today.

OVER HALF
OF STEEL
HELP
MILE
'
The Steel Gang Covered Over Half
Mile of Grade on D Line
Ye»te»day.
In spite of the fact that the;
steel gang, under Foreman Thomas
J. Blakey is handicapped to some
extent by a shortage of men, over
half a mile of steel was laid during
the eight working hours yesterday,
which is considered a good day’s
work.
There are only about 45 men in
the steel gang under Mr. Blakey |
and he can use quite a few more
men. The steel gang expects to be
able to keep up this rate of progress
and in a few days will reach the
point where the D line joins onto
the old roadbed near Bartlett’s |
throuh cut in the neighborhood of i
the 30-mile roadhouse.
The completed grade which will
be encountered from now on and
until the Nenana Crossing, at 43
mile, is reached, makes it possible
for the steel gang to do a great
deal more work than heretofore.
The new devices for laying steel, in
troduced by Superintendent Packer,
are being used and the work greatly
facilitated thereby.

Jimmy Moore and George Moody
with their launches, which had been
employed in freighting on the Tolo
vana river from it smouth to the i
log jam, arrived here last night.
The Fourth Liberty Loan rally
was held last night and a very en
joyable program was rendered. At
torney General Grigsby made a
patriotic speech which was very well
received.
Fairbanks is enjoying a general
holiday today. Everybody has closed
down except the newspapers. The
banks are selling Liberty Bonds; no
other business is done.
Abe Stein received a telegram
from his son Isadore, who is in
Camp Dodge, Iowa, stating that
both he and Charley Creamer are
well.
_ '
Patrick Driscoll, well known miner
of the Fairbanks district, is reported
to be sick with the influenza at
Camp Lewis. j
Mrs. O. C. Williams received a
letter from Richard E. Tyler, who
is a soldier that he drew the sweater
knitted by her and for which he
thanks her.
Slush ice is running strong in the |
slough today and the weather has
turned much colder than before,1
with much frost. I
BMisiom;
on m WAYS
For the first time in the history
of the camp, the shipyards in Fair
banks will be absolutely deserted
and none of the boats that have
been in commission during the sea
son which has just come to a close,
will be hauled out on the ways there.
The reason for this is the unpre
cedently low stage of the water in
the slough .which has made it im
possible for the steamers to get
up to the yards below town. Steam
boatmen say that the water in the
slough has never before been so
low. There are s:|d to be places
along the channel of the slough
where even light poling boats go
aground.
The only boat on the ways at
Fairbanks is the old White Seal, and
she may never be put into commis
sion again. There is no likelihood
of her being put into commission
for a long time to come, at least

COLISEUM WILL REPEAT
POOR LITTLE RICH GIRL
A large crowd at the Coliseum
last night witnessed the popular
play entitled “A Poor Little Rich
Girl” as portrayed by Mary Pickford
and went away perfectly satisfied.
Many plays are claimed to have
appealed to young: and old alike,
but none have ever lived up to this
claim more effectively than "A
Poor Little Rich Girl.”
This is children’s night, and th$
management of the Coliseum has
decided to repeat this picture, which r
specially appeals to all children.
