OFFICER MISSING;
WIFE ^HUNTING
Lady Stuart, Believing Husband
Alive, Became Nurse So That
She May Visit Front.
LONDON.—Three years ago Lady
Robert Sheffield Stuart qualified as
a hospital nurse and went to France,
firm in the belief that her husband
mising since the battle of Neuvq
Chappelle, was alive, and hopeful
that she might learn some news
of him. He was a captain of th»
Royal Scots Fusiliers and with four
brother officers was severely wound
! ed. Captain Stuart insist ’ that his
: comrades should be removed before
he was taken off the field, and when
th stretcher-bearer returned for him
; he had disappeared.
Lady Stuart made eager inquiries
wherever her duties led, but her
patient quest thus far has been u£
| rewarded, and the missing officer
| is now presumed to be dead. He
was the heir of the Earl of Castle-.
! Stuart, his elder brother, Viscount
Stuart, having fallen at Loos.

THE BGYS TONIGHT
—
Management of Coliseum Will Admit
Drafted Boys on War Tax
Tickets Only.
i -
The News has been requested by
the management of the Coliseum to
make the announcement that th’jj
popular show house will accord tq
the boys of the first draft the
same privileges extended to the men
of Uncle Sam’s land forces. They
will be admitted free to the picture
show and the only requirement is
that they provide themselves with
the necessary war tax tickets.
The boys who answered to their
names at roll call are now real sol
diers and the manageemnt of the
Coliseum, in extending this courtesy
to them, are doing this so that they
will show no distinction, as the regu
lar troops have also the same pri
vilege.
This popular show house will put
on an extra reel of the Hearst Pathe
News for the benefit of the home
boys and visitors tonight.
Bl
Coliseum Theater Has Been Vastly
Improved and Is Now Up-to-Date
Show House.
For some time past workmen have !
ben busy remodeling the interior of'
Nenana’s show house and the chang
es wrought has put the structure in
a foremost place as an up-to-date
theater.
A slightly raised dais has been
built at the base of the stage with
an ornamental rail round it suitably
draped. This will be used as a
platform for speakers. The floor
of the dias is carpeted with heavy
green material.
From the base of this dais the •
floor has been raised and has the
correct slope back towards the en- j
trance, with up-to-date opera seats j
rising in tiers in the approved theater j
style. There will be no more crart-j
ing of necks and peering around j
corners as the seating space has been
so arranged that the patrons will (
have an unobstructed view of the |
stage all the time. ^ >
A winding stairway has also been ;
built, and the ladies’ room, which j
was much admired and appreciated I
by the fair sex of Nenana when j
dances used to be given at the j
| Coliseum, has been remodeled and j
changed into a lobby for the con-1
J venience of the theater-going public.;
i Changes are also contemplated for {
■ the main entrance to allow of a;
| storm door being installed flush with j
.the building.
All these improvements were un
dertaken at great expense by Messrs !
Burns and Rosburg, with the sole
object of making the Coliseum an ;
up-todate picture house, and the |
changes wrought have certainly
come up to their expectations and 1
the Coliseum is now a theater that
N'enanaites may well be proud of. j
Among the many improvement'-'
made to the Coliseum is an up-to
date ventilator, situated in the bal-'
cony, thus making it as cool and
comfortable as the ground floor. j
The great regret of the manage-!
ment is that they will soon lose the
services of Victor Durand, who is ]
going Outside on the next trip of
the steamer Yukon. Mr. Durand
can be said to be the foremost,
violinst of Alaska, and has always
delighted the audience by his play
ing. That he will be missed by
N'enanaites goes without saying.
Mrs. Katherine Sholseth. who re
cently came from Fairbanks, will
replace Mr. Durand on the piano.
Mrs. Sholseth is a brilliant pianist
and has often appeared in public
in Fairbanks, her performances be
ing always well received.

HOLLAND UNABLE NOW
TO ASSIST NEIGHBORS
AMSTERDAM.—During the first
three years of the war, Dutch chari
table organizations have every sum
mer brought thousands of German
children and given them a summer
vacation in Dutch homes, where they
could get better care ami nourish
ment than at home. This year, the
society which has charge of the
migration announces that it will be
impossible to get permits for any
similar trips, owing to Holland’s own
food shortage.
Master Walter Douse will deliver
a four-minute talk tomorrow even
ing to the audience at the Coliseum.
