ADVANCE SALES ARE BIG;
MINSTREL CROWD ASSURED
. -
All records for advance sales of
seats were broken today when the
sale of seats for the American Leg
ion minstrels was started at the
Portland. Within an hour or two
after the sale started, practically
every seat had been sold, and the
committee was compelled to plan a
revision of the plat in order to put
additional seats on the reserved list.
If the advance demand is any indi
cation, the Coliseum will be filled
to overflowing1 on Saturday night.
The excursion train, which is to
bring 'the minstrel troupe and others
to Nenana, will leave Fairbanks at
10:30 Saturday morning, and will
start on the return trip Sunday
afternoon, leaving Nenana about
three o’clock.
The show will start at 8:30 and
after it is over the crowd will ad
journ to Union hall, where the big
Fairbanks orchestra will provide
music for the Moose dance.
The special show given at the
Coliseum on Tuesday night for the
benefit of the Nenana road fund,
helped considerably to defray the
cost of building the new trail but
there still remains a deficit, and a
meeting of citizens has been called
for tonight to consider ways and
means of disposing of the indebted
ness. The meeting will be held at
the Cooney hotel after the picture
show.

An American Legion Minstrel ’
rehearsal was held at the home of
Commander Darling on Tuesday ■
night and there is reason to believe
Nenanaites will see a better show ;
than was given here. And it is
whispered that no one in the rail
road town will be spare,1 by the

"Cow" Miller, who returned to
town this week from the Chandler
district, reports that there are about
40 men in the diggings, most of
them prospecting, and others taking
out dumps. There is a dump on Big
creek and another on Little Squaw,
where Milo is reported to have hit
very good pay. Newton and Morri
son are hauling wood for their open
cut operations next summer. Miller
says the future of the camp is
very promising.
Mr. and Mrs. A1 Raymond, who
arrived from the Circle hot springs
several days ago, in company with
Leo Rogge and H. I. Miller, had an ,
exciting experience on the Chatanika
river, as the result of breaking
through the ice near 41 Crossing.
The water, which lay on top of
the main ice, was about three feet
deep, and it was necessary for the
men to break a channel through
the top ice in order to get Mrs.
Raymond and the sleds to the bank
of the stream. The entire party, in
cluding Mail Carrier John Palm, re
ceived a drenching, but luckily the
day was warm and dry blankets
and clothing available.
