KILROY TELLS COMMISSION
WORK HAS BEEN WELL DONE
—
G. F. Kilroy, who was in Nenana
during the past summer arranging
for the purchase of 22 horses from
the Alaskan Engineering Commis
sion. for use m connection with the
moving of a dredge in the Ruby dis
i trict. addressed the following letter
| to Col. Mears, after his return to
.Ruby with the stock:
“In appreciation of the manner
in ^vhich your commission delivered
the horses purchased by the Innoko
Dredging Company, I desire to
thank you. Am also glad to state
that the horses came through to
Ruby in excellent condition. They
are a fine bunch of stock—in fact,
the finest bunch of horses seen on
the Yukon.
"On behalf of myself and the
men I had with me. I wish to state
that throughout the entire trip in
i your territory we were treated with
I the utmost consideration.
“Aside from the purchase of stock
'and equipment, we were amazed
' at the amount of construction work
your commission has done under ad
j verse conditions. It is truly a won
j derfiul undertaking, the nature of
which the average Interior sour
J dough does not realize. However.
; in the near future, when they travel
j over your road, you cannot but gain
; the lasting friendship of those who
; heretofore had to beat their way
! with dog teams to the great Out
, side.
"One good road deserves another;
do not stop; keep up the good work”
.
PERSONAL
a*
r

j Fairbanks yesterday and left for

work a hardship on the mining men
of his district for the reason that

ment. it will be necessary for them

LADIES OF NENANA PLAN !l
DANCE FOR ARMISTICE DAY
The signing' of the armistice, the
incorporation of N'enana and the
election of the first town council
will be celebrated next Friday night,
on which occasion the men of the i
community will be the guests of
the ladies of N'enana.
Definite action was taken by the
ladies yesterday, and committees
of ladies are now at work making
the necessary arrangements, which
are understood to be quite elabor
ate.
The celebration will take the form j
of a dance and entertainment, at j
Union hall, and the arrangements
also include light refreshments. The'
ladies are doing everything them- I
selves and will pay all of the ex- :
penses There is reason to believe,
however, that the cost will not be
very great, for offers of help of
various kinds are already coming in.
Prof. Ernst Berggren and the mem
bers of his orchestra. B. V. Miller
and “Whitey” Bergquist, have vol-1
unteered to furnish the music free!
of charge and help is coming also i
from other sources, all being eager J
to lend a hand.
MUSICIAN SAYS ALASKANS
READ MORE THAN OUTSIDERS
- <
The following, concerning Mr. and
R. F. Wolf, formerly of Fairbanks .
and N'enana. is taken from a recent
issue of a Spokana peper:
“The people of Alaska, contrary
to the common conception, are very
for.d of classical music and have the
capacity to appreciate this ciass of ]
art. according to R. F. Wolf, violin
instructor, who. with his wife, ha?
returned from a pleasure trip of '
two years to the northern country.
“Carrying a Spokane-made violin
with him during the two years. Mr.
Wolf divided his time between ap-;
pearing in concert and theater or
chestra work and prospecting for
gold. He has taken temporary studio
space in the Ellers building where
he will again take up his classes in
violin instruction.
“ ‘Up there the people have money
and they are equally well supplied
with phonographs and pianos and
the latest music,’ stated Mr. Wolf.
‘There is very little work done dur
ing the winter and in this time they
have much leisure, but they make
good use of it.
“ ‘The average person in Alaska
will take the latest issue of a maga
zine, paper or book and will it
through, and will then take in the !
advertisements. The result is that
he absorbs and remembers much
mere of what he reads than the
people of the States, who, for the1
most part, only glance through a j
publication and read what appeals
to them. !
“ ‘They like good music and can
not get enough of it. Difficult com
positions are eagerly received. They
also appreciate a few oldtime favor
ites. Musicians are received with
open arms and are given the right;
of way.
“ ‘While in the gold country I j
figured I would miss something if
I did not do a little prospecting, so
I got a pick and shovel and went!
after it. It was very interesting and !
thrilling and brought in a goodly'
reward financially.’
“Mr. Wolf brought back several ,
ounces of gold in nuggets which he i
obtained through placer mining.
“Mr. Wolf, who appeared with Ze- j |
leanka Lerando, noted harpist at the
University of Pennsylvania, taught
violin classes here for two years be
fore leaving for the north. He was
also associated with the Micholek
college at Chicago."
M. V. Tyler, who severed his con
nection with the Alaskar. Engineer
ing: Commission on the first of the
month, to become assistant to Supt.
Harry Karstens, went out the line
today on official business. He will
be stationed at Riley as soon a
quarters can be provided there.
