as the result of being struck on the
' head by a rock, will be held at
j Grace church tomorrow afternoon,
i under the auspices of Xenana Lodge
j Xo. 1193, Loyal Order of Moose,
: of which organization was a mem
ber.
The services at the church will

tery, where the Moose burial ser
! vice will be held.

| stood the boat; leaving Seward for
| the South are taking capacity loads.
; The steamer Xorthwestern is billed

, Watson on September 1. and the
i Alameda on September 9. After that
the Alameda and Xorthwestern will

j lodge will hold a special meeting
1 at the Portland at seven o’clock

Tony Hagen funeral.
Arrivals from the Tolovana dis
trict report that the shortage of
water there is the most acute re
corded in tie history of the camp,
1 and that all mining is practically
1 at a standstill in consequence. There
! was considerable water very early in
i the spring but there has been none
' since. Rain began falling there this
i week but it is not known if suffi
; cient fell to relieve the situation.

i Recent arrivals from the Kantish
j na report the discovery of a new
galena ledge at the base of Copper
mountain, close to the Muldrow
glacier and about 25 miles from
the famous Quigley property. The
| discovery was made by Grant and
Giles, and is claimed by them to be
very rich, although the value of the
; ore has not been determined. The
i strike was followed by quite a stam
jpede from Eureka and other creeks
j in the Kantishna and most of the
ground has been taken, up. Higher
up on the mountain where Grant
and Giles made their discovery, Joe
Quigley staked claims some time
; ago, while on a hunting trip, and 't
is now claimed that the mountain
is largely composed of the rich ore.

All members of Nenana Lodge, j
i No. 1193, Loyal Order of Moose,!

Walter Grimm, member of the
local telegraph office force, contract
ed an acute attack of appendicitis
this week and was taken to Fair
banks yesterday for an operation.
This is his third attack.
Carl White, who has been en
gaged in relaying much-reeded sup
plies up the Tolovana river, arrived
in port last night, enroute to Fair
banks. The water is unusually low
in the Tolovana.
Jack Irvine, oldtimer of the Tol
ovana district who arrived in town
last night on his way to Fairbanks,
reports the rinding recently of the
head of a giant prehistoric animal
in the ice on Lucky. The upper part
of the skull has two large holes in
it, about the size of a plate, and
apparently indicating the presence,
at one time, of upright tusks. It is
thought, for that reason, that the
skull is not that of a mastodon.
The steamer Yukon, enroute to
Xenana from Dawson, is reported
on a bar on the Yukon flats, and
yesterday was engaged in lightering
the barge which it had in tow.
The Government transport Jacobs
arrived in port last night, enroute
up the Tanana river. The boat -was
in port only a short time.
There will be a dance at Union
hall tonight, the affair having been
arranged as a farewell to several
of Nenana's young ladies who will
leave for the coast within the next
few days. It is to be a public affair.
Reports from Anchorage are to
the effect that the municipality is
making a big success of the opera
tion of the telephone system, taken
over recently from the Alaskan En
gineering Commission. All of the
available phones have been installed
since the change was made, notwith
standing the fact that the A. E. C.
discontinued the use of a consider
able number which were in the
various offices.
Foreman George Woods and the
members of his T. & T. construction
party, have moved camp to North
Xenana and are preparing to begin
work on the new copper line ex
tension to Fairbanks. The new line
is now in splendid working order
between Xenana and Anchorage.
Mrs. E. A. Williams reports hav
ing received from Washington, her ,
commission as postmaster, with in- y
structions to prepare a new bond, ^
pending which she will continue to S
serve as acting postmaster.
Alex Kalisoff and associates, who £
have been engaged in station work \
in the canyon, are reported to have
completed their contract.
NOTICE TO PHONE USERS
Notice is hereby given that on
and after August 15 the use of 'i
telephones in Nenana will he re- i
stricted to fire and doctor calls ,
between the hours of midnight and ^
eight o’clock in the morning.
