IGLOO MEMBERS VOTING
TO DECIDE QUALIFICATION
The referendum authorized by
the Grand Igloo, of the Pioneers of
Alaska, to fix the residence qualifi
cation of those eligible for member
ship in the order, is now being tak
en under the direction of the vari
ous igloos. The question to be de
cided is whether the limit will be
1901 or 1905.
The matter was up for discussion
at the meeting of Nenana Igloo,
No. 17, at the regular meeting held
last night, and it is evident from the
votes already cast locally, that the
members of Nenana igloo are very
much in favor of fixing the limit
at 1901. Applications are now be
ing accepted on that basis, In ac
cordance with a decision reached
some time ago by the local lodge.
The referendum will be canvassed
at the next meeting of the Grand
Igloo and the result formally an
nounced at that time.
The only other business coming
before the meeting last night was
the usual routine.

ITALIAN SOLDIERS TAKE JOBS
FROM WOMEN APPOINTl ES
ROME, May 2—Italian soldiers
who were more or less mutilated
during the war lately have taken the
law into their own hands and have
swarmed in thousands into many of
the government ministries, taking
possession by force of the places of
the many young women who gained
a footing there during the war, and
so far have refused to be displaced.
Newspapers are being flooded with
letters, some fewr of them arguing
that the women clerks have earned
the right to work if they please,
and to support themselves, but most
of the writers telling lurid and ter
rible tales of the frivolity of these
daughters of Eve; of the little work
they do and the great amount of
time they waste on flirtations and
on their toilettes; of the alleged sub
versive effect they have in well
regulated ministries, and of many
families whose peace is said to have
been undermined by their dangerous
proximity to staid and respectable
men.
At any rate it appears that sol
diers who have served their country
have made good their claim to the
coveted positions and, both in Rome
and in many provincial towns the
edict has gone forth that the girts
must go. Italian housekeepers hope
that some will return to the many
mistresses who sigh in vain for as
sistance in their household, but
doubt whether after the short hours
and independence of office life they
take kindly to domestic service or
the long hours of shop work.

STEAMER PIONEER IN PORT;
UNDERGOING REPAIRS HERE
The steamer Pioneer, Captain Geo.

yesterday morning, under “slow
bell”, from Diamond City, on the
Bearpaw river, where she had win
tered. The boat is now undergoing
repairs and will return to the Kan
tishna just as soon as the necessary
repairs have been effected, and her
skipper returns from a jaunt to

age from the ice, but shortly after
leaving Diamond, the rocker arm
of her port engine broke and the
balance of the journey down the
Bearpaw and Kantishna rivers and
up the Tanana to Nenana was ne
gotiated on the starboard engine on

fit and a party of prospectors, among
whom are Sam Samuelson, Frank
O’Neill, Bill Langley, Chris Rado
vich and two others.
From the shore of Manchumina
the party will pack over the divide
into the Kuskokwim and will en
gage in prospecting on a large
and systematic scale.
