The Enterprise Carriage Company,
Bel Air, has recently found it necessary,
on account of increased work, to install
a gasoline engine with which to furnish
power to run its machinery, thus doing
away with the tediousneSs of much hand
work The three bellows in the smithing
department are blown with air furnished
by fan that is run with this power.
The Enterprise Carriage Company has
since its organization, always shown a
progressive spirit from which the custo-
mers have reaped the benefit in the way
of getting good work at the lowest
prices.
"A meeting of the Geological Survey
Commission, called by Governor Wartield,
was held in Baltimore on Monday. The
principal object of the meeting was to
consider the law passed by the last Legis-
lature providing for state aid to highway
construction. 1t will be remembered that
Attorney General Bryan directed the
treasury officials not to pay out money
in accordance with its provisions, as lie
questioned its constitutionalty. 1t is |
more than probable that the State
Geological Survey will bring test case
before the Court of Appeals, and it is
highly desirable that this step be taken
at once. Under the provisions Of the law
no money can be paid out before 1905,
but in the meantime it is important that
surveys be made at as early day as pos
sible, in order that plans may be ready
for the construction of the roads should |
the law be declared constitutional.

Memorial Day Exercises.

Arrangements are about perfected for the observance of Memorial Day in Douglas, next Monday. The Natatorium Hall has been secured and the stores and business houses will close from l to 3p. m.
 It hes been impossible to arrange a program in time for this issue of the News. Among the numbers, however, will be appropriate exercises and songs by the school children, a song by Mrs. Walter G Gould, and an address, probably by Dr. I. H. Moore. The Douglas liar mony Band has agreed to furnish mus ic on that day.
 The exercises at Natatorium Hall will begin at 1:30 p. m., and immediately following, if the weather is favorable, a procession will be formed to proceed to the cemetery where appropriate eXer- cises will also be held.
 All fraternal organizations and the city councils of Treadwell and Doug las are invited to participate in the ex' ercises.
 If possible more complete program will be issued later.

The Excursion.

A number of daring ones from Doug las Island after wait of several hours, boarded the Georgia last Friday even- ing at o'clock and started on the long trip to Whitehorse.
 The weather, when the boat left was very unpleasant, but as we rounded the Island it calmed down and it was all that could be expected.
 We viewed the scenery for several hours until it became dark, and beautl- .ful scenery it was, sparkling glaciers, rugged snow capped mountains, and lovely wooded hills blended together and made constantly shifting pano- rama of beauty. After darkness had fallen upon us some of us began to seek place to rest our weary head, but we were doomed to bitter disap- pointment, for the Standing Room Only" sign was up, and we had to "carry the banner" Some had taken mattresses, Ca single sheet of news paper) and made them bed, while others were on "fowery beds of ease" curled in half circles on the cushions, of course the ladies had the berths. One crowd occupied places on some baled hay, but that went to feed some hungry cattle at Yankee Cove, and the boys ,,o,o o1aip 1uo m ororc
 We put off men at all the mining camps on Lynn Canal, and if they couldn't find a camp they would stop and put off few men anyway. When we arrived at Seward City some of the boys thought it was their duty to pro- claim the fact unto all people, there were threats of lynching by the sleepers but peace was established and snores soon reigned supreme among them.
 Daylight came, and soon the cheery cry of "Good morning Carrie" was heard as the ladies appeared upon the scene. The first place we made after daylight was Haines where we took on some passengers. Soon after leaving Haines, we came in sight of Skagway and soon after we set foot upon its long, windy wharf.
 We rushed directly to the train and soon were climbing Che far famed White Pass. Every Alaskan's heart heat faster and he felt thrill % through him as he saw the steep ole trail winding it's way through the pass His imagination carried him back

 A'large crowd of Knights of Pythias came over from Juneau to attend the convention of North Star Lodge, last Thursday evening.
 A new organization has been formed at Treadwell, which is known as the Summer Widowers Club. The object of the association is primarily to pre- vent the wives of the members from finding out what good time hubby has while she is away.
 Two alarms Monday evening resulted in general stampede of the fire com panies and large delegations of com mon people. The one on Front street was in the house across the street from the Opera House, and was quickly subdued. The one at the residence of Mir. L. H. Keist proved to be no fire at all.
 A Decoration Day sermon in the Con- gregational church Sunday night at s o'clock. The citizens of the Island gen. erally are invited, especially all G. A. R. men. This notable day, commemo- rating the sacrifices of the civil war, deserves notice. The music and ad- dress will be appropriate. "Is war al ways wrong?" will be the theme. A cor dial welcome.
