DOCK COMPLETED
OPPOSITE TOWN
NEAR CAMP 415
... . .
The new dock situated on the
I farther shore of the Tanana river,
j near camp 415, erected for the pur
pose of facilitating the unloading
j of construction material and sup
| plies intended for use on the Fair
j banks-Xenana branch line, is now
1 completed, and most of the men en
i gaged in its construction have been
| given other employment elsewhere
I along the line.
j The old powder house, which was
recently torn down, has been ereci
i ed on this dock to serve as a ware
house for the present; the stiff-leg
derrick and a powerful engine have
been placed in position and it now
| only remains to install the cable,
blocks and running gear on the
derrick and the drum of the hoist
ing engine.
The material gang has also fin
ished the work required of them,
and Foreman Lee of this gang with
some of the men, have been assign
ed for duty at the dragline camp.
They will form the nucleus of the
surfacing gang, which will soon be
organized to put the main line in
shape after the frost goes out of
the ground.
On the X’enana-Fairbanks line,
where all of the construction work
will be done this summer, all pre
parations for a commencement of
this work have been completed, and
when the ground has thawed out
sufficiently, a commencement will
be made and the work rushed to
completion.
Two piledrivers. working from
opposite directions, are now driv
ing trestles across low ground to
bridge the gaps in the grade.

STEAMER MOVEMENTS
WHEN SEASON OPENS
With the early approach of the
‘season of navigation on the Yukon
| river and its tributaries, a tenta
tive sailing schedule, outlining the
early sailings of the steamers oper
ated by the American Yukon Navi
gation (White Pass) company has
been issued by W. D. Gordon, sup
erintendent of the river division.
The freight and passenger tariffs
are not out as yet, but it is ex
pected that these also will be issued
soon.
According to the present ar
rangements, the steamer Washburn
will leave Hootalinqua (Lower La
barge) when the river opens, with
the barge Olympia. She will han
dle the freight and passengers for
points on the Tanana and Iditarod
rivers. She will proceed to Fair
banks first and then go from Fair
banks to Iditarod. After making
the first trip to the Iditarod, she
may come up to Tanana, or remain
'n the run between Holy Cross and
Dikeman, which will be her regu
lar summer run.
The A. Y. X. Co has secured
permission to use the Washburn in
the Canadian coasting trade until
•July 1, and will probably use her
to handle the Carlisle passengers
from Lower Lebarge to Dawson,
transferring them at Dawson tj
the steamer Seattle Xo. 3.
The small steamer Xasutlin will
leave Lebarge on the opening of
navigation with the barge Alsek.
She will handle Carlisle passengers
in addition to the regular Dawson
business, and will take Carlisle
freight on the barge for transfer
to the Seattle Xo. 3 at Dawson.
After arrival at Dawson and if
there is sufficient business to war
rant such a move, the Xasutlin may
go to Mayo, on the upper reaches
of the Stewart river, returning
from there to Dawson and thence
to Whitehorse.
Th’ mail launch Sibilla will re
main in Dawson to handle the
second down bound mail out of
Dawson.
The steamer Tanana will leave
Fairbanks on the opening of navi
gation, not before May IS, and
with the steamer Reliance and
! empty barges in tow, will proceed
to Tanana, where she will leave
1 her tow; returning to Tolovana to
get some more empties. She will
then leave for Dawson, taking the
Canadian barge Pelley through.
After arrival at Dawson, the Tan
ana will there await the opening
I of through navigation, connect with
the boat from Whitehorse and pro
1 ceed down the river to the mouth
of the Yukon. At the mouth of
the river she will meet the first
run of perishables and return with
them to Fairbanks, transferring
Fairbanks and Tanana river freight
1 to the Alaska or Yukon should
either one of these boats be at
Tanana when the steamer Tanana
arrives there from the lower river.
In this case the steamer Tanana
will be left at Tanana. her crew
will transfer to the steamer Re
liance, and that boat will make
the first trip to the head of navi
gation (Betties) on the Koyukuk
river. After this trip the Tanana
or the Reliance will be operated
' for the balance of the season as
occasion warrants. Only two trips
will be made up the Koyukuk river
this season; these trips will be
made about June 25 and August
25th.
The Seattle No. 3 will leave Daw
son for the Carlisle Packing Com
pany's plant at the south mouth of
the Yukon river after the arrival
of the fleet from Lebarge. When
she has completed deliveries at the
south mouth, the Seattle No. 3
will go on to St, Michael.
The company will operate but a
few boats, the following steamers
only will be on the different runs
for the season:
Dawson to Fairbanks—steamers
Alaska and Yukon.
Sr Michael to Tanana—steamers
Julia B and Seattle No. 3.
Iditarod river service—steamer
Washburn.
Tanana and Koyukuk river ser
vice—steamers Tanana and Re
liance, operating with one crew.
The mail launches Sibilla, Relief
and Kotlik will be used in main
taining the regular weekly mail
service.
MAUNDY THURSDAY
10 8E OBSERVED
The Scottish Rite Masons, resi
dent of Nenana, of whom there are
only six at the present time, will
observe Maundy Thursday today.
The Masons with an equal num
ber of ladies will meet at the home
of .John H. Scott, on Front street,
tonight, but there will be no cere
monies, as is customary in the ob
servance of the day.
Maundy Thursday is the Thurs
day in Passion Week. It used to
be the custom in England and other
countries, for the sovereign to
wash the feet of a certain number
of poor persons, and to send them
away with presents in the shape
of food, clothing and money. This
ceremony is in commemoration of
Christ, who washed his diciples’
feet on the occasion of the last
supper.

A sudden wind sprang up shortly i
after the fire had been started and
in a short time, it fanned the1
flames' to such proportions as to be
beyond McAtee’s control, and
spreading rapidly to his cabin,
completely destroyed it with all it
contained.
