Mrs. J. J. Kestly, wife of Resi
dent Engineer Kestly, of the A. E.
.
C., expects to leave for the Out
side soon. She will be accompanied
by their small son Jerry.
She expects to make her arrange
ments and dispose of her houselioli
furniture, etc., so that she may be
enabled to take a steamer leaving
Nenana about the middle of August, I
at latest.
Mrs. Kestly has identified herself
closely with the various social and
patriotic organizations in the town
and district, and counts a very
large circle of friends here. By her
departure, social circles in Nenana I
will lose one of their most prominent 1
members, whose piace it would be
difficult to fill.
It is not definitely known whether
Mrs. Kestly will return North again,
but her friends hope that she will.

IKE MITCHAM
ESCAPES AGAIN
A recent issue of the Portland
Oregonian contains the news of
the escape, from the federal js'.I
at Everett, Washington, of five
prisoners, some of whom were held
for deportation, and among whom
was Ike Micham.
Ike Micham was convicted of
sedition at Fairbanks, some time ago
and sentenced to a term of im
prisonment. He escaped from the
federal jail there and for quite a
long while enjoyed his liberty. He
was recognized while at work on
one of the mining claims in the
Marshal! district, and was re-ar
rested and brought to Fairbanks.
He was then sentenced to a longer
period of incarceration and later
his deportation to his native land
was ordered. It would appear, from
the account in the Oregonian, that
in company with four other pris
oners, he sawed his way out of jail
and is still at large.
Ike Mitcham is an Englishman
and hails from London town.

FOU RTH COMMITTEES
HOLD BUSY SESSION
Two days of festivities, with a
day of rest at the end of it all, will
be Nenana’s contribution to the na
tion’s celebration of world inde
pendence—one day for American
independence' won in 1776 and or.e
day for the glorious victory of last
year.
! A two-day celebration was def'n
’ itely decided upon at last night's
special meeting of the Commercial
club, when it was found that the
program of events outlined could
I not possibly be crowded into a single
'day. The celebration will start with
| a dance on the night of July third,
and end with a dance on the night
of the fifth, with two full days of
interesting and varied events in be
tween.
The program of the celebration
proper will start on the morning
of the Fourth with the reading
of the Declaration of Independence,
followed by the Fourth of July
oration and other patriotic numbers,
which are being arranged under the
direction of Robert Joseph Diven.
The track events will be started
at one o'clock and continued through
out the afternoon until five-thirty,
when a halt will be called for din
ner. The free-for-all motor boat
race is scheduled for seven o’clock,
with a squaw canoe race as a pre
liminary, and the committee gives
the positive assurance that the motor
'boats will start on time.
Immediately following the big
race will come the show at the
Coliseum, a special attraction in the
form of Theda Bara in “Cleopatra,” a
jten-reeler, having been secured for
i the occasion. The show will start
at nine.
A baseball game between two
local aggregations, followed by a
greased pig event, will fill in the
morning of the Fifth. The game
is scheduled to start at nine-thirty,
the committee estimating that the
two eve ,..- will take up practically
the entire morning. The greased
pig, for the capture of which a very
substantial prize will be awarded, -s
to be liberated on the ball grounds,
where there will be plenty of room
for the chase.
Additional track events will be
held on A street on the afternoon
of the fifth, starting promptly at
one o’clock. These will be followed
by the tug of war, the slippery pole
and the greased boom events, three j
exciting features which promise a j
lot of fun. i
The handicap motor boat race, I
with a preliminary in the form of a j
canoe race among the male boatmen j
of the native village, will be started
at seven o’clock, followed by a spe-!
cial racing picture at the Coliseum,
starting at nine. The picture is a i
five-reel feature entitled ‘‘Sporting i
Blood."
The celebration will come to a
close with a big dance at Union :
hall, arrangements for which are to
be made by a Commercial club com-1
mittee consisting of William Coutts, :
Harry Shaw and Herman Rosburg. i
Benches for Spectators
Instead of moving the grandstand
to A street, as was done last year, j
the committee will place rows f
benches along the street where the
races and other events are to be
held. This will give spectators an
unobstructed view of the events and
prove much more comfortable, it is
believed, than a crowded grandstand.
Two-Day Holiday
Upon motion of the club, the
chairman of the celebration com
mittee was instructed to proclaim
the fifth of July a holiday, and
Townsite Manager Carl Schmidt, who
was present at the meeting, an
nounced that he would issue a proc
lamation to the same effect, call
ing upon the people of the town to
observe both the fourth and fifth as
holidays.
Employees of the Alaskan Engin
eering commission will be given the
opportunity to spend two full days
in town, Mr. Browne having an
nounced at the meeting last night
that he would grant a two-dav lay
off so that railroad workers might
do their full share of celebrating.

COUNTRY ESTATES
IN ENGLAND ARE
SOLD AT AUCTION
LONDON'.—A number of the big
country estates with which Englan i
abounds are going under the auc
tioneer's hammer, judging from the
advertising pages of real estate
journals. One advertisement of a
country house for sale says the
aouse contains fifty bedrooms. Old
timers are sadly asking whether
the “fifty bedroom” scale of enter-1
Laining ever will be seen again.
