All of the Xenana witnesses in the
Barney Kelly case, returned to the
railroad town on yesterday’s train.
Tuesday’s Chatanika train met
with a mishap just beyond Happy
station. The key of the eccentric
I rod fell out in some unaccountable
j manner, with .the result that it was
necessary for the train to return to
town, which was done with one side
only of the engine working. The
necessary repairs were taken in
hand immediately and the train
left for the creeks again at 8:30
Tuesday night, returning to town
early the following morning. The
same crew took the train to Xenana
yesterday, leaving town within an
hour or two after arriving from the
creeks.
The fire department answered a
call from the Bredlie store, on
Second avenue, at an early hour
yesterday morning. Coal gas forming
: in a stove on the second floor of
i the building exploded and threatened
! damage. Except for dirtying the
i place a little, however, no damage
resulted. This is the first case of the
kind
[jtion

gal and Emil Anderson are among
the recent arrivals in town.

,few days.
Mrs. Lew Shomacker has pur
j chased the house on lower Front
i street, formerly owned by Bruce
; Boyker, and will probably take up
her residence there. The purchaser
is a recent arrival from the Outside
and is employed at the Detention
hospital.
Considerable excitement wa- oc
casioned shortly before noon yester
day when an alarm of fire was turn
ed in from the N. C. Company store.
The department responded promptly
only to find that a workman, engag
ed in repairing the wires, had un
intentionally sounded the alarm.
Inquiries are being made for Jas.
Lapierre, of McLoyd, Alberta.
William W. O’Leary, member of
the late grand jury, has returned to
his home on Cleary creek.
Harry Feldman, the Fairbanks
creek mining man, has returned to
