10 RENEWAL OF
RAILROAD WORK
Preparations Are Under Way for
Resumption of Work on Large
Scale.
Indications of the early coming of
I Spring have stimulated the prepara
! tions now under way for the re
sumption of active railroad construc
j tion work on a large scale. All
the machinery and equipment that
will be used by the Commission in
the great undertaking, is being min
utely inspected, overhauled and got
ten into shape and will be ready
: for service just as soon as weather
j conditions will permit. According to
: Superintendent of Construction
' Packer, “As soon as the sun has
. done his duty” a commencement will
■ be made with the construction work
| in all its branches, and will be con
tinued day and night until Jack
j Frost again calls a halt to the acti
j vities alang these lines,
j The locomotives, with the excep
j tion of a few minor repairs to L'o
j 272, have been thoroughly over
i hauled, and are now ready for the
| serivce required of them. The dam
| aged minor parts of locomotive 272,
J that could not possibly have been
! duplicated in this country, are ex
! pected on the first boat, and the
; work of getting her ready for the
service will not consume more than
a day or two.
The big trestle across Lost Slough,
1,300 feet in length, has been com
pleted, and as no danger from
j floods is anticipated, it is expected
I that the actual laying of steel will
I be proceeded with uninterruptedly
i until the crossing at 43-mile has been
j reached. It is the intention of the
i Commission to use the steam shovel
i for work on the side cuts just be
i yond Residency 3 (35-mile) early
;in July, by which time regular train
| service to ihio point anu beyond will
| have been established.

MARGUERITE CLARK
SUNDAY ATTRACTION
Marguerite Clark, that popular
little actress who never fails to
! please,, will be seen at the Coliseum
tomorrow night in an unusually good
'attraction, entitled “Still Waters.”
; Those who attend will have the op
portunity to see a real circus.
The story starts with Marguerite
Clark astride an old canal boat mule.
She is the granddaughter of the cap
tain of the canal boat and the first
mate and only member of the crew
is in love with the young woman,
i The mule is taken sick and Marguer
; ite runs for a doctor, who happens
! to be an attractive young fellow,
j Then the trouble commences.
The mule dies and is replaced by
| a horse stolen from a circus, show
! ing in a nearby town. How the horse
j returns to his circus life and Mar
J guerite is restored to her long-lost
i mother, who is a performer in the
[ circus, make an exciting story.
The show will start at 8:30, and
the prices of admission will be fifty
cents and seventy-five cents.
: JOLLY TIME PROMISE
AT UNION HOP TONIGHT
Everything is in readiness for the
Calico party which is scheduled to
! take place tonight at Union Hall, for
the benefit of the Red Cross. The
affair is to be given under the aus
pices of the Nenana Labor union,
and all proceeds, after the expenses
have been paid, will be turned over
i to the Red Cross society,
i Good music has been engaged for
the occasion, the floor is in excellent
; condition and the interest displayed
by the dancing public gives promise
of a jolly evening.
It is not to be a dress-up affair. •
The ladies will don their calico
gowns and the men will wear soft i
j shirts. And it is whispered that
there are to be some startling calico
creations in evidence.
The admission charge will be one
dollar for the men. Ladies are to be
admitted free.
The Malamute Kid, who left Fair
banks day before yesterday with
mail, is expected in town late this
afternoon or this evening.

SAWMILL PLANS
CALL FOR EARLY
START ON LOGS!
Commission Will Put Machinery In
Shape For Busy Summer
Sawing.
Arrangements are now being com
pleted for putting on a gang of men,
experienced in this class of work, for
the purpose of thoroughly over
hauling the machinery, gearing and
fixtures of the Alaskan Engineering
commission’s saw mill. This gang
will probably commence operations'
next week. It is expected that ac-;
tual sawing operations will be com
menced just as soon as the mill has i
been put in shape. The planing mill!
will also be given atention and be
made ready to handle the product i
of the saw mill.
For some time past saw logs have |
been hauled in from various places 1
along the right of way and unloaded i
in the neighborhood of the brseball :
grounds, and the work of hau’ingj
in the rest of the saw logs remaining j
c'ong the right of way is to be con
tinued vigorously until completed.
Many of these logs have been glac
iered in, in the woods adjacent to
Lost Slough, and these will be sal
vaged and hauled in as soon as con
ditions permit of this work being
successfully undertaken.
Several contracts let for saw logs
to lumbermen up river will have
been completed by this time, and
great rafts of the material are ex- ,
pected to be safely lodged within
the boom at the saw mill very short
