Facts About Merchant Tailoring
CUSTOM TAILORED CLOTHES are made to your individual
measurement and are sewed and made by hand. The shape is
worked into the garment. Custom Tailored Clothis are economical
because they wear longer, look better and cost no more. Well
dressed men have their clothes custom-tailor-made, selected from
the guaranteed line of all pure wool fabrics.

DUNCAN MAKES GOOD TIME
ON TRIP OVER NEW TRAIL
- !
George Duncan arrived in town
Sunday afternoon from the Kan
tishna district, and reports that he
came in from Knight's roadhouse
by way of the new cutoff trail,
which he found in very good con
dition for travel. He estimates the
trail to be between 35 and 40 miles
in length, and he covered the dis
tance in approximately eight hours.
He left Knight's at 7:30 Sunday
morning and arrived in town in
time for the picture show, having
stopped on the way at a convient- ^
ly-located tent.
Duncan says there are three'
tents on the trail. One is about 16
miles from town, the next about 25
miles out and the third close to
the roadhouse. The trail, although
new, is in pretty good condition
for travel, and will become better
as the travel over it increases. And
the grade is such that a team can
go right along with a load.
Nels Stol came along with Dun
can, with another team, and several
Natives, with teams, passed over
the trail at about the same time but
headed in the opposite direction.
Duncan expects to return to the
Kantishna within a few days.

THE MINSTREL BOYS
A man must serve his time at
every trade, except rhymsters—they
’re already made. And any dub
that’s pot half wit and an hour of
time, may unwind upon the town a
reel or two of rhyme; not the high
brow stuff like that of Homer and
Horace, or the pensive lays of Pete
Dolan and Dick Morris; just com
mon rant, rouph and ready made—
easy put together. They’re tricks in
every trade. “Awake, my St. John!”
the poet Pope began, when he put
the words of wisdom in his “Essay
on Man”. Awake, Nenana! We're
in the movie rut, and slow, when
Fairbanks has to show us how to
stage a minstrel show; a show up-to
date. natty, nice and clean, the best
N'enana’s ever seen. Doctor Suther
land could slit you up and bind you
with a clamp, was a regular peach,
and something of a vamp. And Jack
O'Gara, who the glasses at Casey’s
bar did twirl, was a nifty piece of
muslin, and a regular dance hall
girl. Hal, with the funny name—I
couldn’t sound it with a gong—
showed lots of style and class in
his good old harem song. The acting
of Ed. Hering was up to every wish,
which plainly goes to show that
Hering is no fish. Rody Davis long
ago for Major Morrow sang, has
grown from pinafores to a regular
minstrel man. Each and every one
was good and showed a lively pace,
along with Bobby Sheldon and his
“Charlie Chaplin” face. The humor
w-as all good—yet, pon my honor,
I think they went a little strong on
Mayor Joe O’Connor. They hit the
nail right on the head, still, to me
it seems, they wronged the soulful
thoughts of “Romeo Barrett” Eames.
When it comes to doing things in
style—take from me the hunch—
it’s hard to go one better than that
lively Fairbanks bunch. We’re in
oinnocuous desuetude", which is an
awful state, so we’ll put the matter
in the hands of Fred “Belasco”
Date.

The cold storage rooms of the
Tavern Cafe have been stocked
with a large variety of over-thv
trail delicacies which were shipped
to Xenana by Mr. Rodigkeit for
use in his popular eating place. The
list includes springers, lamb frys,
sweetbreads, brains, breakfast cheese
pork loins, beef loins, pork spare
ribs, veal, ham, bacon, boiled ham,
and a number of other equally
choice articles of food.
The Tavern cold storage plant,
which was installed last summer,
has recently been given a general
overhauling and is now so arranged
that any one or more of the freez
ing rooms may be disconnected at
any time without interfering with
the rest of the plant, thus making
it possible to make repairs to the
piping without exposing the con
tents to thawing temperatures. Th
plant is of generous proportions
and will be keep well filled through
out the summer.
