JIMMIE COLMER NOT
LOST ON SOPHIA
Tom Smith, of the Southern, re
ceived a postcard on the last mail
from James Colmer, former chef at
l
the Tavern Cafe, telling of his safe
arrival at his home in Weiser, Idaho.
Jimmie’s name was included in
the list of those who had lost their
lives on the Princess Sophia, and
his many friends in this district will
be glad to hear that he is alive and
[well. He left Nenana on the steamer
Yukon on her last trip for the
season, and for this reason it was
thought that the name “J Colmer''
appearing on the list of the Sophia';
passengers, referred to him, as there
were many of the Yukon’s passengers
among those lost.

The Day is Fittingly Observed In

Thanksgiving day was ushered n
quietly and although there were no
decorations or noisy 'emonstrations ■
as on other occasions of national j
holiday making, the large influx of I
men from the railroad camps out!
the line, both on the main line and

government offices and all places
of business in town were closed,
Thanksgiving services were held
commencing at 11 a. m., at the
