NEW MEMBER APPOINTED
BY COUNCIL ON TUESDAY
William Rodigkeit. proprietor of
the Tavern Cafe, was appointed a
member of the City Council at the
regular meeting of the city fathers
on Tuesday night, to fill out the un
expired term of M. J. Cooney, re
signed. Mr. Rodigkeit was the unani
mous choice of the council for the
place.
It was the intention of the coun
cil to appoint an assessor at the
Tuesday meeting, but there were no
applications on file for the place !
and the mat:er was put over until
next Tuesday, when a special meet
ing will be held. The work will be
done by contract, at a price to be ■
named by the successful bidder.
H. C. Henshaw, superintendent
of public utilities, reported the com
pletion of the second turbine-gener
ator unit and new switchboard and
informed the council that the plant
is now running satisfactorily and
capable of supplying all the power
1 required. Both units are operated
j during part of the afternoon and
: evening, while the load is heaviest.
' The finances of the city are now
j in good shape, with ample funds on
I hand in the salary and general funds
to tide the city over until the end
of the fiscal year, and with a stead
ily growing reserve in the public
utilities. The power plant is being
operated at a profit at present but
the council anticiuates that some
difficulty may be experienced in
making both ends meet when the
revenues drop off next summer. It
is the desire of the council to have
a substantial surplus available in
case of need, and it is also the de
sire of the aldermen to reduce rates
to consumers within a short time,
perhaps by the first of the year.
F. 0. Robinson, who came over
from Anchorage to direct the in
stallation of the new units, has
been appointed city electrician. He
will divide his time between city
work and Commission work.
The clerk reported the arrival of
Bartley Howard to plan the altera
tions to the old telephone exchange
building so that it may be used as
a fire hall for the city and Com
mission fire apparatus, and it is ex
pected that the work will be taken
in hand shortly.
Acting Chief of Police Alexander
reported to the council that he had
served notice on all owners of dogs
that they would be expected to com
ply with the provisions of the dog
ordinance.
INVITATIONS ARE READY
FOR ELKS' NEW YEAR BALL
The invitations for the hrst an
nual ball to be given on the nigh
of December 30 by the Elks of
Xenana. were placed in the hands
of the committee today, and will
be given out as rapidly as possible.
The invitation list is a long one and
some time will be required to get
all of the invitations in the mail.
The other arrangements for the!
dance also are taking form rapidly. |
with the %*arious committees work-1
ing overtime to make sure that no
detail is overlooked. The special
orchestra, which will provide the
music for the affair, is rehearsing
frequently and the musical end of
the program promises to be a big
feature.
At a meeting of the committee
men this week it was decided to
eliminate full dress among the men.
but those in charge of the dance do
not presume to dictate what the
ladies shall wear, and it understood
that a great variety of beautiful:
gowns will be in evidence.
| One t>f the features of the dance
I will be the elaborate luncheon, to
be served during the evening, and
another will be the decorations. It
was necessary to send to the States
for some of the things needed for
the decorative scheme.
Still another feature will be the
grand march, during the course of
which programs will be handed out.
