STAND ERECTED

The permanent stand, contracted
Ifor by the town of Nenana and
[turned over to the Fourth of July
! committee for use during the forth
■ coming celebration, has been placed
jin position on A street, ready for
jthe patriotic exercises whicii will
mark the commencement of the
[celebration.
! The exercises, which have been
arranged by a committee consisting
of Robert Joseph Diven and J. A.
Slippern, will be held on the morn
ing of the Fourth, starting at ten
o’clock. The program will include
the reading of the Declaration of
Independence, an oration, a recita
tion, and patriotic music.
The program of track events will
start at one o'clock on the after
noon of the Fourth and continue
until five o'clock. After that will
come fhe free-for-all motor boat
race and a native canoe race, sched
uled for seven o’clock. At nine
o’clock the crowd will adjourn to
the Coliseum, where the great his
torical masterpiece, “Cleopatra,”
with Theda Bara in the title role,
will be shown for the first time in
Interior Alaska. This is a ten-reel
feature and is reputed to be one
of the best pictures seen in the
North.
The second day of the celebra
tion will start off with a baseball
game between two picked teams,
scheduled to start at 9:30, followed
by a race for the greased pig,
which Ralph Waechter and the mem
bers of the “slippery” committee
will turn loose on the ball grounds.
A reward of S20 will be paid to
the person catching the porker.
Immediately after dinner oti the
fifth, th track events will oe re
sumed, the afternoon concluding
with three star events—the tug of
war, climbing the slippery pelt and
walking the greasy boom.
There probably will be another
motor boat race on the evening of
the fifth, with an “open” canoe race
as a preliminary. “Sporting Blood.”
a racing feature in six reels, will
follow at the Coliseum, the show
being scheduled to start at nine
o’clock. This is a dandy picture,
which will fit in nicely with the
celebration.
After the show will come the
closing feature of the celebration,
the big peace dance, which will be
held at Union hall under the aus
pices of the Nenana Commercial
club, and for which elaborate prep
arations are being made by a com
mittee consisting of Billy Coutts,
Harry Shaw, and Herman Sosburg.
The celebration also will be open
ed with a dance, the management
of Union hall having announced
a big time for tomorrow night, and
there is reason to believe the danc
ers of the town and nearby camps
will be there in force. The hall is
being decorated today for the occa
sion.
The committee in charge of the
.celebration has requested that al!
dogs be kept off the streets during
the celebration. Their presence
among the crowd while the program
j is in progress will prove a serious
handicap to the proceedings, and it
i is the hope of the committee that
owners wull see to it that the can
ines are left at home, and forcibly
detained there.

Telegraphic advices received this
morning from the office of the Am
' erican-Y'ukon Navigation company
!at Tanana state that the steamer
Tanana has made connections at the
mouth of the river with the steam
er Alaska, down bound from Daw
son, and is now on the way up the
Tanana river, having sailed from the
army town at eight o’clock this
morning, with a light load.
1 Agent John H. Scott, of the local
'office of the company, says that the
i Tanana, unencumbered by a tow,
should make the run up the river
to Nenana in from thirty to thirty
five hours, which will bring the boat
here about tomorrow noon.
The Tanana is billed through to
Fairbanks, where Captain Green and
the members of his crew will trans
fer to the steamer Reliance for the
first voyage of the season to Bet
ties, on the upper Koyukuk. The
Relance should reach Nenana some
time Friday.
The steamer Alaska made the run
down the Yukon from Eagle to
Tanana and transferred freight, car
go and passengers to the steamer
Tanana in fifty-one hours, which is
regarded as remarkably good time.
The Cascade Laundry has plenty
of hot soft water at all times. New
hath rooms, fully equipped and san
itary, with special rooms for ladies.
You get -ebate with $2.50 laundry,
which applies on hath, or pay 50c

Postmaster R. S. McDonald has
been advised that the request of
the Xenana Commercial club for an
improved summer mail sendee be
tween Xenana and Fairbanks has
been granted by the postoffice de
partment and that contracts may be
let for two round trips per week
between the two towns. This serv
ice will be in addition to the weekly
sendee required of the A.-Y. X.
company.
The matter was taken up with
Chief Mail Clerk Wetzler some time
ago by the Commercial club, and
recommended by him to the depart
ment at Washington, with the above
result.
Pending action by the department,
the club arranged with Fred Douse
and Joe Johnson to carry the mail
on a season basis, and the service
provided has proved very sa*i>fac
tory thus far.
Heimberger’s Cascade Laundry has
just been renovated. Has sanitary
baths and furnishings. Shampooing
and electric drying a specialty.
Terms reasonable.
