FAIRBANKS FIRE
! IS NEARLY FATAL
: TO POLICE CHIEF
I __
Chief of Police Elmer Sanderlin, j
of Fairbanks, nearly lost his life at!
an early hour this morning while
engaged in fighting fire at the home
of James McIntyre, on Garden is- j
land. Sanderlin is now in the hos-!
pital with three broken ribs, and j
he is also suffering from other in- \
■. . I
juries, the extent of which has not1
yet been determined.
Sanderlin and Fire Chief Gohres
responded to the alarm with the
town’s fire-fighting apparatus, but
found that they could not carry the
city water that distance, the Mc
Intyre house being at the northern
edge of the island settlement. The
two officials proceeded to the scene
of the fire, however, and rendered
such assistance as was possible un
der the circumstances, fighting the
flames with water from a pump in
a nearby stable. I
Sanderlin and Gohres were on the
porch, throwing water into the;
house, when other volunteers pulled 1
the porch down. Gohres was thrown '
into the burning building, but es
caped unhurt, while Sanderlin was
buried beneath the wreckage of the
porch in such a manner as to re
quire considerable time to release
him.
The house was completely de
stroyed, but the nearby buildings, of
which there are several, were saved.

TICKETS ARE READY !
FOR BASEBALL POOL
Tic! for the baseball eonsola- j
tion ice guessing contest were dis- '
tributed this afternoon and are now
on sale at all the pool hails and
other places around town where
there is a demand for them.
As already explained in the col
umns of The News, the new pool is •
to be divided between the winner
and the baseball fund, the chief ob- j
ject of the contest being to raise
money for needed improvements at
the ball park. It is the belief of
the baseball committee that the pub- :
lie will find the ice pool plan less
objectionable than the circulation of
a subscription list, inasmuch as each
contributor now has a chance to get
his money back, and considerablo
besides. It is an easy way to help
a good cause along, and should
prove popular.
The pool will close on April 2d
at midnight.

CO-MINE STORE
About 200 citizens mot in An
chorage recently and perfected the
organization by electing a board of
seven directors and adopting by
laws governing the Anchorage
branch store of the Notional Co
operative association.
J. A. Hadland, organizer, repre
sented the association, which has
its headquarters in San Francisco,
with retail stores in 3,000 towns
and wholesale stores in seven cities,
including Seattle, which will be the
natural distributing point for the
Alaska stores the association ex
pects to establish in the near fu
ture. Mr. Hadland instructively out
lined the policy and. in detail, ex
plained the co-operative plan, which,
he stated, was meeting with splendid
success in me ouues.
It is estimated that at least 200
members have joined the Anchor
age organization. Shares are $110
each, payable either in cash or in
stallments as desired, the initial
payment to be not less than $60.
Charles Balhiser was elected secre
tary and treasurer of the organiza
tion.
Other officers elected by ballot
were D. B. Rose, chairman, and Mrs.
Mary Morrison, J. J. Moore, J. S.
Heckey, J. YV. Blase and Carl Pol
lock, who will form the directorate.
The new co-operative store will
occupy the space in the McKinley
block recently occupied by A. A.
Shonbeck, and J. A. Hadland will
remain in Anchorage and assume
the management until the business
is established.

ANCHORAGE ELECTION
VERY LIVELY AFFAIR
Arrivals from the coast bring the
report that the school election held !
in Anchorage on April 6th was j
me of the livest contests ever!
staged in that town of spirited '
■chool elections. It appears that ;
:wo candidates who sought places j
m the ticket were ruled out by '
he members of the old board, who
tad charge of the election, and :
heir names omitted from the offi-.
rial ballots. A mass meeting of1
i
protest was held, without avail, so I
the supporters of the two candi- j
lates had slips printed, bearing the |
tames of the candidates, and these !
were distributed among the voters:
;o that they might be stuck on the |
ballots in voting.
The result was an overwhelming j
victory for the candidates whom the <
bdard sought to defeat. The can
lidnte-i in question were Oscar Gil!
ind H. C. Bennett.
Mrs. Thompson and Townsite
Manager W. B. Clayton wrere ac
cused of “framing the scheme”
which resulted in their own defeat.
The Petersburg fire department
las started a campaign to raise
'unds to purchase a truck. The
ruck will carry 50 gallons of chem
cal and some hose to fires and hold
:he blaze until the hand-drawn vehi
rles arrive.
