Popular Assistant Engineer Will
Leave For Fort Gibbon to
Answer Country's Call.
R. B Ward, assistant engineer of
the Alaskan Engineering commis
sion. has been notified by the
Local Board of Belville, Kansas, of
his induction into the service and
will leave tomorrow on the steamer
Tanana to report to the command
ing officer at Fort Gibbon for mili
tary service.
Resident Engineer Ike P. Taylor
will look after Mr. Ward’s work for
the present and until a successor
has been appointed.
Mr. F. D. Browne stated that he
will not make any appointment of
a successor to Mr. Ward until he
is certain that he has been actually
accepted by the military authorities.
There is just a small chance that
some hitch may occur to prevent
Mr. Ward’s induction, in which case
his position will be open for him.
This chance, of course, is felt to
be very slim, however.

Some of the Grading Contract* Are
Neaping Completion and the
Rett Are Well Along.
The work of grading along the
■ new D line is said to be progressing
and it is expected that some of the
contractors will be through in a
short time.
The biggest part of the grading
, work consists of fills, there being
only one of two places where a cut
will be necessary and these are not
more than two or three feet. A good
portion of the line runs over swampy
land, which is difficult to grade,
owing to the difficuty of borrow
ing.
On residency 2, which is under
the supervision of Resident Engineer
Hawley W. Sterling, there is a large
area of swampy land through which
a ditch for a distance of about four
miles has been cut. This ditch
drains into Glacier creek, which in
turn runs into Lost Slough. Grad
ing work on residency 2 is being
pushed along rapidly.
SEGURA CLOSES PLACE;
WILL TAKE A CONTRACT
The Belmont rooming house and
pool hall, which has been conducted
during the past several months by
Victor Segura, will be closed tem
porarily tonight, and the proprietor
will seek employment or take a con
tract from the Alaskan Engineering
commission for the purpose of se
curing funds with which to liquidate
his obligations. As soon as these
financial matters have been ad
justed, Mr. Segura will re-open his
place. His present embarrassment,
he explains, is the result of too much
liberality in the matter of extending
credit to his patrons.
NOTICE
The regular meeting of the Ne

the office of the United States
commissioner.
All members of the club are urged
