FERRY SERVICE 10
With the early approach of the
breakup, and taking into considera
tion the fact that most of the forces
of the Alaskan Engineering com
mission will be stationed on the
Nenana-Fairbanks line, the matter
of establishing a ferry service
across the Tanana river, for the
convenience of those who may wish
to come to town to make purchases
and for other purposes, is now be
ing talked of by Nenanaites.
It is understood that the Alas
kan Engineering commission will es
tablish a ferry service between
Nenana and camp 415, but this will
only be operated during the regular
working hours. Many of the work
ers may wish to come across after
their daily work is over, and re
turn during the night, so that they
will be on hand to go to work
nexi. morning, and it for just such
a contingency that the establish
ment of a free ferry is contem
plated.
The matter is to be taken up at
the meeting of the Commercial club
for the purpose of obtaining the
endorsement of that body, and for
discussing the scheme fully. The
merchants of the town, it is thought,
will finance the entrprise, as they
will benefit most by the establish
ment of a free ferry service, such
as is in contemplation.
As all the businessmen of this
town are also members of the Com
mercial club, a large attendance is
expected at the meeting of the club
tomorrow night.

ROD & GUN MB
10 BE FORMED IN
That a rod and gun club for this
town and district will soon be an
accomplished fact, is plainly evi
denced in the great interest mani
fested in the movement for the
formation of such a club by many
enthusiasts of both hunting and
fishing, jointly and severally.
For the purpose of perfecting
an organization, which will be
known as the Nenana Rod and Gun
club, all those who are interested
in outdoor sport are invited to
attend a meeting to be held in the
office of Commissioner R. S. Mc
Donald, adjoining the postoffice
building, commencing at 8 o'clock
on the evening of Saturday, April
12th. Should a change in the time
of the meeting be considered ad
visable, due notice of such change
will be announced in the News.
Julius creek, where excellent
grayling fishing is obtained, is
rapidly breaking up, and the ducks
and geese will soon be populating
the marsh lands in the neighborhood
of this creek; hunting and fishing
parties will soon have opportunity
to indulge in their favorite pastime
and a huntign lodge, such as is plan
ned by the club to be, will be a
great boon to hunters and fisher
men.
It is hoped that all who possibly
can will attend the meeting Satur
day evening.

"The Butcher. Boy
^JftSAMOUNT-ABBUCK.LE COHEOY
The chief attraction chosen by the .
management of the Coliseum for
the show next Sunday night is a
two-act Paramount Arbuckle com
edy, entitled “The Butcher Boy”, i
with the irresponsible “Fatty” in
the title role, supported by a strong
cast of famous movie stars.
Fatty Arbuckle is a butcher boy
working in a small town country
store, where they sell everything
from frankfurters to fire escapes.
He falls in love with the pretty
cashier, who is the daughter of the
proprietor, and she, in turn, has
eyes for no one else. The careless
clerk of the store resents the at
tentions being paid her by Fatty
and informs the old man.
He keeps his “weather” eye on
them both and one day discovers
Fatty sending her mental love
mesages and forbids, him to ever
speak to her again. But Fatty is
undaunted and finds a way. Fatty
also learns of the careless clerk’s
love for the pretty girl and when
the latter objects to Fatty’s love
making, they have a terrific fight
in the store, which ruins the place •
and ends in the old man sending
the girl to a nearby seminary to
avoid further trouble.
Fatty resolves to win the girl
oi Ms heart, and disguised as her,
cousin, gains admittance to the |
place, and while having the time
of his life, he is confronted with
his hated rival, also dressed as a
girl, wlTo, with the village pest and
another schemer, have decided to
kidnap the charming daughter.
! “Luke”, Fatty’s pal, discovers the
plot and in his own particular way
rounds the gang up, who are held
at bay by the principal of the school
while Fatty runs away with the girl
to the nearest clergyman.
This will be preceded by a strong
Paramount feature film in five acts,
entitled “The Daughter of Mc
Gregor”, in five acts of thrilling
romance, with Valentine Grant as
leading lady, supported by an all
! star cast.
Sunday’s show promises to eclipse
! all others shown hitherto.

in Fairbanks with what is reported
to be an exceptionally good catch
of wolverine- He has seventeen
pelts of these animals.
He reports that the wolverines
are responsible for the destruction
of a large number of mountain
sheep, and that they have done
more destruction among the sheep
than even the wolves.
LOWER YUKON STRIKE
IS MUCH OVERRATED
According to advices received
from Fairbanks today, in a wire to
Judge Bunnell, Commissioner Thos
deVane of Ruby, who has recently
returned from the scene of the re
ported strike on the Stuyahok river
in the lower Yukon region, says
that hundreds of holes had been
sunk to bedrock in that region, and
withthe exception of one or two
holes in which some little pay was
found, the labor spent in sinking
the holes was absolutely unpro
ductive of any results.
Mr. deVane remained in the
j Stuyahok country for some time
; and made a very thorugh investi
^ gation ere returning to Ruby.
