SCHOOL ELECTION
SHOWS BIG VOTE
A total of 307 votes were cast
yesterday at the school election,
which is a very creditable showing
when the fact is taken into con
sideration that the incentive for vot
ing, in the way of a contest was
absent. The population of Nenana
is also on the winter basis, and
many of them are out on the line,
having gone there recently to pre
pare for a commencement of spring
operations.
The total vote polled for the
delegate election last November was '
399: and the vote polled at the last
school election was considerably
less than half the number of votes
cast at this one.
The votes cast were as follows:
Robert Joseph Diven.285
Carl Schmidt . 280
Geo. W. Pennington 258

Mrs. F. P. Browne 1
Thompson, Druggist.-. 1
Shortly after the polls were
opened yesterday, the Ladies' com
mittee started out in pairs to bring
voters to the polls, and the very
good showing made was due almost
entirely to their efforts.
Ed Lund’s rig was used by the
Ladies’ committee from 10 o’clock
in the morning until the polls closed,
and they visited every section of the
town in their efforts to secure votesi
in order that good showing be made
at the election and a good rating
obtained in consequence when it1
came to a matter of appropriations j
for school purposes. I
The Ladies’ committee 'fcas com
posed of Mesdames F. D. Browne
chairman, R. G. Southworth, Leoi
Kellum, M. J. Cooney, John Scott
Xorman Campbell, W. H. Gilcher
and M. J. Sweeney; and this com
mittee co-operated with a specia
committee appointed by the Xenan;
Commercial club at its last meeting
for the purpose of making a thor
ough canvass of the town. Th<
Commercial club committee wa!
composed of William Julian A. G
Johnson, Bert Tunison, Eli Gray
M. A. Schaeffer and George Wood
The ladies went out in pairs
starting with Mesdames Browne an'
Southworth, who were out from 1(
a. m. until noon, followed by Mes
dames Gilcher and Sweeney frorr
noon until 2 p. m., Mesdames Xor
man Campbell and John Scott fron
2 p. m. until 4 p. m.. and Mesdames
Leon Kellum and Cooney from A
p. m. until the polls closed at 7 $>. m
The committees did their part;
verv efficiently and it is belived that
there were only a very few Xenana
voters whom they were unable to
reach.
The necessary qualifications of
the voters was limited to those who
ivere citizens of the United States
over 21 years of age and had been
resident in the division for one cal
endar year or more. Many people
who desired to cast their votes were
disqualified in consequence. A great
■nany of these only had first papers,
ind ordinarily, would have been
qualified to vote at a municipal
election.
The dance to be given by the
N'ena: Dancing Academy on Satur
day night, April 5th, and which is
to be in the nature of hard time
dance, shows promise of being a
great success.
Everything is being done to en
sure a good time for all those who
will attend, and all indications point
to the fact that the attendance will
be large. ,
Tickets for the dance are on sale
now at the Portland, Arctic and
Terminal pool halls. Miss Betty
Foster, who has charge of the sell
ing of the tickets, will also be glad
to sell as many as one cares to
purchase. She will be assisted in
the sale of the tickets by Miss
Queenie Russell.
QUIGLE1SM
FOR KANTISHNA
Mrs. Joe Quigley, better known
as Fanny Quigley, left on the train
this morning, bound for the Jap
roadhouse, enroute to her home in
the Kantishna region.
Her husband followed shortly
after the departure of the train
with his dog team, and will join
Mrs. Quigley at the Jap roadhouse
tonight. They expect to resume
their journey to their camp on the
divide between Friday and Eurek3
creeks tomorrow morning.
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Quigley ar
rived in Nenana on February 24th
from the Kantishna, the journey
being made necessary owing to an
injury sustained by Joe Quigley,
necessating the amputation of one
of his toes.
During their stay in town, which
by the way, was the very first time
they had seen the town or any town
for a good many years, the Quigleys
renewed old and made many new
acquaintances.

SMALL FIRE A!
BUSSELL HOI
Shortly after nine o’clock last
night the fire siren sounded the
alarm, followed by three long blasts
of the Commission whistle, indicat
ing that the fire was within the
ltmts of the town proper.
Both town and Commission de
partments responded promptly. The
fire alarm was turned in from the
Russell home, on upper A street, to
which place the town department
went; but the Commission depart
ment, which appeared to have been
considerably mixed regarding the
location, made for the Waechter
house, on lower Second street, only
to find that they were mistaken.
The fire was caused by some
glowing embers falling from a de
fective flue base at the back of
the kitchen range, between it and
the wall, where a fire could not be
readily noticed. The fire had burned
a small hole in the flooring and the
smoke it emitted gave the first
warning of impending danger. The
services of the town department
were not availed of, as a bucketful
of water sufficed to quench the
small flame.
The flooring behind the stove to
the extent of about a foot square
was torn up and this represents the
sum of the damage done.
When the fire was first discovered
quite a flutter was caused among
the members of the Tuesday Bridge
club, which was holding its meet
ing there as tKe guest of Miss Alta
Russell. The excitement, however,
was momentary and was allayed al
together on arrival of Townsite
Manager Carl Schmidt and Martin
Nash, who made certain that the
fire had been extinguished.
In the meantime the Commission
fire department went off on an ex
(pedition of their own down Second
street, where they were unable to
discover any fire.
