TEACHES RUSSIAN
BULLYA LESSON
OMSK, Siberia.—A certain Rus
sian bully learned something about
American women that will lurk in
his memory for some time through
an encounter a few days ago with
Miss Annie Laurie Williams in the
freight yards at Omsk. Miss Wili
ams’ name is familiar to many New
Yorkers as a welfare worker. She
is now with the American Red
Cross and was one of twelve wom
en chosen to remain behind when
the others were hustled out of Omsk
by the American ambassador to
Japan, Roland S. Morris, to escape
a possible Bolshevik invasion.
The Russian was attempting to
climb aboard a car in a refugee
train in which were several girls.
The girls were trying to shut the
car door against him when Miss
Williams appeared and grappled
with the intruder. She managed to
land two blows on his jawf and then
they rolled together down the em
bankment. As they arose she gave
him another.
Two Czech soldiers then came to
her aid and, but for Miss Williams'
intercession, would have finished the
bully, who was eventually allowed
to retreat and ponder on the strange
ways of American women.

Terminal. You’ll want some.

TRAIN ARRIVES
FROM FAIRBANKS
WITH BIG LOAD
The train arriving from Fairbanks
at noon today Drought approximate
ly iifty people to town, according
to statements made by some of
those who made the trip from the
upper town. There were two pass
enger coaches attached to the trail',
and each was comfortably filled.
On the return trip, the train car
ried about as many away from Xe
nana, leaving the exchange about
even for the day.
The unusually large number ar
riving from Fairbanks was due to
some extent to the fact that travel
was discouraged last week because
of the condition of the ice in the
river. Several intended to come to
Nenana on Friday, but w’ere per
suaded to wait until a crossing of
the river could be made in safety.
Of those arriving today, some
tame on business, some on pleasure,
and some headed for the coast by
way of Broad Pass, the short-cut
route to the States from Interior
Alaska.
The departures included mostly
employes of the Alaskan Engineer
ing commission who have been laid
off for the winter. Some of them
have cabins in Fairbanks and will
winter there, while others are head
ed Outside by way of the Richard
son trail, undiscouraged by report:
of storms and deep snow, which
just at present are interfering con
siderably with travel between Fair
banks and Chitina.
The cold weather of the past sev
eral days has made the crossing oi
the Tanana river safe, and it wil
not be long until there will be i
good trail between Xenana an<
Camp 415. Several horse rig:
crossed on the ice today, and here
after the Elankfield mail stage wil
make connections with nil trains
carrying passengers and express.
Let Anderson B-os. & Nerknt
frame your pictures. New Molding,
just received.

RUBY OLDHMER
ON WAY BACK 10
REINDEER HERD
!
!
!
Enroute back to Ruby and the
lower Yukon country to look after
his reindeer interests, Lynn Smith,
1
1
] well-known oldtimer of the lower
'river, was a down-bound passenger
on today’s train from Fairbanks,
j getting off at Dunbar’s, where he
! will make connections with the Gib
bon mail stage. Smith is just back
; from a vacation in the States, and
has the distinction of having made !
'one of the fastest trips recorded j
[between Seattle and Interior Alas-;
ka. He covered the distance in a
i little over nine days.
. Smith is interested in the rein
deer industry, with Captain Will-j
iams, and is very enthusiastic re-j
garding the future of that business, j
; They have about 800 animals now
‘and the herd is increasing steadily
jand thriving on the moss which
j abounds along the Yukon below Tan
;ana. The herd grazes from Tanana j
to Kaltag, the latter place being the I
'Headquarters. i
j Smith predicts that within a few j
years reindeer in Alaska will sup-I
»ply the bulk of the meat consumed. !
His herd already supplies a limited
{amount for local needs, but no at
tempt will be made to furnish meat j
.on & large scale until the herd has ]
‘increased considerably in size.
