The steamer Tanana, sailing from
Tanana today, has the barges Lynx
and Superior in tow with a large
consignment of construction mate
rial and supplies consigned to the
Alaskan Engineering Commission.
In view of the heavy tow she has,
it is expected that the steamer will

this port about Saturday.
Among other things on board the
barge Lynx is a new and up-to-date
American ditching machine, which
weighs 33 tons, a motor car weigh
ing 1200 pounds, boiler tubes, Brown
hoist repair parts, air brake equip
ment, a new patent smokestack for
the new narrow guage engine and
some mess supplies.
The barge Superior has a full load
of steel, rails. These rails were load
ed onto a barge last summer for
conveyance to Xenana, but the
barge was sunk in St. Michael har
bor. The barge and cargo would
appear to have been recovered this

WHERE THE TRAIL DIVIDES
AT THE COLISEUM TONIGHT
As a special attraction, the Coli
seum will show tonight the play en
titled ‘‘Where the Trail Divides,”
with Mr. Robert Edison in the lead
ing role, supported by an all star
cast.
The play is laid amid scenery of
surpassing magnificence of forest
and dale, with the Indian encamp
ments and cabins of the early set
tlers in the frontier country, and
shows in five thrilling acts, the out
rages committed by the Indians who
go on the war path and the subse
quent punishment meted out to them
by the hastily armed and organized
settlers.1
The acting is powerful through
out the play, which is well worth
seeing. Bargain prices will prevail
tonight, and in the picture that is
shown, the audience certainly gets
very much the best of the bargain.
General admission will be two-bits
and reserved seats four-bits.
