INBOUND MAIL STAGE
DELAYED AT SALCHA
According to advices received at
Tairbanks this afternoon, the in
coming Brower mail stage, which
was reported at Salcha yesterday,
had not passed Salcha at noon to
day, and the assumption is that the
rig was held up at Salcha by the
ice. The Salcha ferry was taken
out of the water this week, inter
rupting traffic to some extent.

Six new names were added to the
membership roll of Nenana Igloo,
Xo. 17, Pioneers of Alaska, at the
regular monthly meeting of the or
ganization of oldtimers, held last
night at Union hall. The lucky
candidates were J. Russell Walle,
L. V. Stanley, Ed Laherity, Capp
Lawson, John Letray. and Emil An
derson, all well-known oldtimers of
the Interior country.
Alaska Day Plans.
There was considerable discussion
last night relative to the plans of
the igloo for the celebration of
Alaska Day, October 18, for which
a committee has been appointed to
make the necessary arrangements.
The details have not yet been de
cided' upon, but The News has been
authorized to announce that the
celebration will consist of an enter
tainment, followed by a dance.
Cemetery Needs.
The neglected appearance of the
cemetery south of town was called
to the attention of the igloo by one
of the members and, after consid
erable discussion, the chair was in
structed to appoint a committee to
confer with the proper authorities
with a view to having needed im
provements made. The cemetery
tract, it was explained, is badly
overgrown with weeds, which are
both unsightly and a source of dan
ger from fire
Several delegations of Pioneers
have visited the tract at different
times during the past season, fixing
up the roadway and making other
improvements, but there still re
mains some work to be done, and
the oldtimers believe that others
than themselves should take some
interest in the work. The matter
is to be taken up with Mr. Browne
and also with the board of trustees.
