TRAIN WILL TAKE
CROWD FI GAME
There will be a baseball excursion
to Fairbanks tomorrow, with ac
commodations for all who care to
make the trip. This was the defi
nite announcement made by Man
ager Joe Fischer this afternoon,
after he had listed nearly enough
reservations for the train guaran
tee. He expected to have more
than enough before night, and it is
generally believed that a big crowd
will be on hand in the morning
when the excursion ferry leaves for
North Nenana to connect with the
train.
The ferry will leave promptly at
seven o’clock and the excursionists
wiil reach Fairbanks considerably
before noon. The train will start
on the return trip during the early
evening.
Reports from Fairbanks indicate
that the baseball boys of the upper
town have been busy all week pre
paring for tomorrow’s game, and
they expect to send the visitors
home with the short end of the
score. In other respects, however,
they promise to make the brief stay
of the visitors an enjoyable one.

HOLMGREN COMMIITS
SUBDEAT BROOKS
Emil Holmgren, well-known resi
dent of the Tolovana district, where
he spent several years hunting and
trapping and oceassionally working
around the creeks, committed sui
cide this week by shooting himself
with a .22-caliber rifle, according to
information received at Fairbanks
today from Deputy Marshal Miller.
The body of Holmgren was found
in his bunk, with the rifle beside
him, and it was clear to the jury
summoned to pass on the case that
the oldtimer had taken his own life.
The deceased was an oldtimer in
Alaska, having resided in the North
since the early days. He worked
on Ester creek for a number of
years, as mine foreman, and went
; to the Tolovana three or four years
jago, since which time he had occu
pied himself chiefly with hunting
and trapping.
