FAKE COURT PARTY
Advices received from Fairbanks
indicate that, although no definite
arrangements have been made as
yet, the courthouse party probably
will leave there on the steamer
Tanana for the purpose of holding
court at Tanana and Iditarod. As
far as is known at present, no
session of court will be held at
Ruby this year.
The steamer Tanana probably will!
sail on or about the 20th with a
large tow. According to the pres
ent plans of the A. Y. X. company,
she will not take the through mails
or passengers on the first trip,
which will be only as far as Ruby.
Her first through sailing will be
about the 6th of June, from Chena
or Fairbanks.
STEAMER SHIM
IS DUE 10M0RR0W
The first big steamboat to navi
gate the waters of the Tanana riv
er this season will be the steamer
Shusana, which is scneduled to sail
from the Chena dock tomorrow
morning, immediately after the ar
rival at Chena of the train vh’ch
leaves Fairbanks at 7 a. m.
The boat will enter the service
between Xenana and Fairbanks for
the season, her sailings being gov
erned by the quantity of freight
offering.
On the first trip up to Chena
from Xenana she will take a barge
load of railroad steel, etp., salved
from the sunken barge near “Eat
’em-up” Frank's place. This barge
was in tow of the Shusana last
fall, when it sprang aleak and sank
in the channel.
It is expected that the Shusana
will have considerable freight and
some passengers for Xenana to
morrow.
PEERLESS
The launch Peerless, with Joe
Johnson at the wheel, arrived in
X'enana yesterday evening from
Fairbanks with F. O. Wahlund, O.
W. Kellen, H. Kasman and C.
Harding as passengers for this
town.
Captain Joe Johnson says that
it is quite impossible to navigate
the slough up to Fairbanks, and
thinks that until such time us
there is a big raise in the level
of the river it will possible for
the launches to make Chena only.
As there was not sufficient busi
ness offering, the Peerless did not
sail today. She will leave tomorrow
morning for Fairbanks with such
passengers as may be offering.
PASSENGERS DUE ON
BROWER STAGE TODAY
A Brower stage is due to arrive
at Fairbanks tonight from Chitina
It is expected that it will have
some mail on board, but how much
of it and of what class is not
known.
It is also bringing two passen
gers, believed to be Captain Alex
ander Allen and a man named
Gardner, both of them bound for
the Arctic regions.
SPECIAL SERVICE AT
GRACE CHURCH SUNDAY
Dr. Robert Joseph Diven, pastor
of Grace Presbyterian church, an
nounces that a special service will
be held at Grace church at the
usual time on Sunday evening, at
which a special lecture will be de
livered.
The service and lecture will be
in connection with America day,
which will be observed throughout
the States on Saturday, May 17th.
ANNOUNCEMENT
Dr. R. R. Myers wishes to an
nounce to his patrons that he will j
leave Nenana on the first boat for
down river points, and will be absent j
far some time.
The date of return will be duly,
announced later.
A gang of about fifty men. un
under Foreman Lewis Lee, will be
sent out the line south of town
tomorrow morning: to commence
surfacing operations on the railroad
from the sectionhouse at 35-mile
toward Xenana Crossing (43-mile).
The new Bucyrus steam shovel
will work in connection with the
surfacing crew and will take out
the necessary materia! from the
high bank alongside the grade be
yond the through cut opposite the
sectionhouse.
The quantity of good gravel ob
tainable there is practically un
limited and the steam shovel will
be able to supply the gravel trains
and keep pace with the surfacing
gang easily.
The roadbed from 35-mile to the
Crossing was left in a very unsafe
condition for heavy traffic when
the frost went out of the ground,
and only light traffic with the aid
of the speeder will be possible
until such time as the road has
been thoroughly ballasted and sur
faced.
A camp for the accommodation
of the surfacing gang, train crews
and steam shovel crew will be es
tablished today on the side trac-K
some little distance beyond camp
383. The necessary bunk cars,;
cook, dining and supply cars are
now being gotten ready; the nec
essary supplies are being loaded
into supply cars and it is ex
pected that the train will pull out
with the cars and some of the men
this afternoon.
Locomotives X'os. 208 and 239,
with full crews and crews to work
the gravel trains, will take the
camp cars and men out today. The
locomotives will be stationed at
the front and will not come into
town again unless it be to undergo
repairs or on an emergency run.
The water tank now at Packer
springs, situated near old camp 18.
will be moved today to the siding
where the surfacing camp is to be
established, to serve the needs of
the locomotives.
The surfacing gang will take care
of the main line from mile 390
to 373 with the aid of the steam
shovel. From mile 390, near the,
Jap roadhouse, to mile 414, X'e
nana, the road will be looked after
by another surfacing gang which
will be organized just as soon as
it becomes possible to put the
Bucyrus dragline excavator to work
getting the necessary gravel. The
big excavator is in shape now and
ready to commence operations just
as soon as the frost leaves the i
ground.
