NEW ICE POOL STARTED
TO AID BASEBALL FUND
_ e
Local baseball enthusiasts have
started an ice pool with a view to
raising funds for the coming sea
son, it being the plan to divide the
pool equally between the winner
and the baseball fund. One thousand
tickets have been issued for a start
er, with guesses at fifty cents each,
and it is the hope of those in charge
to dispose of several thousand tick
ets before the time set for the clos
ing of the pool, on May 2.
The coming of cold weather made
this pool possible, it now being
agreed among oldtimers that there is
no chance for the ice to go out
much before it did last year. Early
guessers in the big pool will welcome
this opportunity to back their re
vised judgment. The pool is known
as the 50-50 Baseball Ice Pool.
The tickets are on sale at a
number of places about town.

ABE SIMSON IS ELECTED
TO VACANT COUNCIL SEAT
The usual routine business and a
lot of new business was transacted
by the city council at the regular
meeting of the aldermen on Tuesday
night. As the result of the delib
erations of the body, a new member
was elected, the office of superin
tendent of public utilities was abol
ished, a new man was placed in
charge of the power plant, and City
Clerk H. C. Henshaw, who had en
tire charge of the public utilities
under the former council, tenirered
his resignation, to take effect as
, soon as his successor is named.
Abe Simson is the new member
of the council, having been elected
j to fill the vacancy created by the
I'failure of A. D. Thompson to qual
! ify. Mr. Simson was present at the
meeting and took an active part in
: the deliberations.
The abolition of the office of
1 superintendent of public utilities was
made with a view to economy. City
Electrician Frank Robinson was
placed in general charge of the
power plant, the plan being to have
him continue to look after the city’s
electrical work and to look after the
plant in addition, eliminating an en
gineer and separating supervisory
duties and accounting.
When this action had been taken
by the council Mr. Henshaw tender
ed his resignation and the council
is now looking for some one to
take his place, to act as city clerk
and magistrate, accountant for the
utilities and probably tax collector. ‘
Mr. Henshaw was installed as sup-.
erintendent of public utilities when j
the city took over the power and tel- j
ephone plants last October and has
had full charge of both plants since
that time.
It was decided by the council at
last night's meeting to issue a call
for bids for removing the cinders
from the power plant and distribut
ing them about the city as directed
by the street committee. These cin
ders are used for improving the
streets, a large quantity having
been used to good advantage dur-1
ing the last year.
Danny Leach and Oscar Sander
son left for the coast on Tuesday to
dismantle a dragline excavator at
Seward. The machine will be shipped
to the Interior for use in digging
gravel for ballasting and other rail
road needs.
,
—
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Abercrombie
and two children left for Anchorage
on Tuesday to take up their per
manent residence there. They will
occupy one of the commission cot
tages near the Government hospital.
The train arriving from the coast
tomorrow will have mail and pas
sengers from the steamer North
western.
