 It is unlawful for women to be drunk on Fairbanks streets after 6 o'clock in the morning. The fact that one was trying to find her hus- band did not excuse her.

 E. J. Hutmacher has superseded Henry Roden ill the publication of the Cinema Times. The paper has been improved in appearance, and its advertising patronage indicates that the paper may achieve a fair measure of success.
 Cinema citizens recently met to discuss the subject of fire protection. Two schemes were preached, one of which would cost SI3,ooo and the other SII,4oo a year. After much figuring and debating, and after a vote was taken" says the Times. "every member expressed his opin ion that the funds could be raised by taxation. As there is now sup posed to be between S4oo, 900 and $500, 900 worth of taxable property in Cinema, this at per cent. would net ill the neighborhood of $500 to SIo ,ooo, and it was therefore de- cided to appoint a committee who should wait on the council and ask them to tax the property of the town for fire protection Later an assessment was ordered.

BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG.
Ms. psckett's Description Of that
Great Battle.

Ms. psckett's Description Of that
Great Battle.
The auditorium was filed to
its utmost seating capacity yes
terday wednesday, afternoon,
by those who desired to listen
to Mrs. Pickett's description Of
the battle of Gettysburg. Mrs.
Pickett's accurate, eloquent and
vivid portrayal of that great
conflict has made her name ia
nous throughout the United
States. She is not an open-air
speaker, however, her voice be-
ing inadequate to overcome the
difficulties of such speaking;
but considering the absence Of
those acoustic properties which
in an enclosed auditorium are
so invaluable to a public speak
er when delivering an address,
she did remarkably well, and
even those who sat far back
from the speakers platform
and could not hear her words
distinctly remained throughout
the speech, being glad to catch
such fragments of her discourse
as they were able to gather
above the outside din and noise
that dissipated most of her re-
marks ere they reached the ears
of this part of her audience.
In few well chosen words
Hon. P. P. Campbell presented
the speaker to the audience,
and she at once took up the
subject of her discourse. We
regret that we haven't the space
in our little daily to give a ver-
batim report of the lady's
speech, suffice to say her de-
scription of that most moment
Gus, desperately contested, and
sanguinary struggle of the Civil
war, is worthy of the mighty
pen of a Victor Hugo. Indeed
there are those who claim that
her portrayal of that battle and
her description of its environ
ment surpasses in vividness and
minuteness that of Hugo's de-,
scription Of Waterloo given in
his renowned work entitled
Lies Miserables." p" She unfolds
as it were like a scroll the ter
rible scenes of that conflict, and
finally one sees the entire pic
ture in all its smoky, grimy,
blood-stained and hideous real
ity. She sets forth the picture
with such clearness and minute
ness of detail that the interven-
ing years, with all their accumu-
lation of dust and rubbish that
have tended to obscure it's bril-
lance, seem to drop away from
it. and 10! we behold before our

corporations and trusts without
gloves. He said it was the duty
of every good citizen to take an
interest in the methods (called
politics) by which our public
servants were elected. He said
q patriot was a man who was
not only willing to carry arms
in defense of his country, but a
man who would take an interest
in every question involving its
betterment. He said every man
was a patriot who was striving
to make this a better country;
who was working for the causes
that make for a higher and pur-
er citizenship. He spoke of
temperance and said that ques-
ton would have to be met and
settled at some time in the fu-
ture. 1t was a question which
involved the welfare of human
ity and of civilization itself. 1t
could not much longer be evad-
ed by time-serving and weak
kneed politicians. His speech
as a whole was of the high class
order and was we'll received by
the audience.
WARMERS SPEECH.
Major VIM. Warner, United
States Senator from Missouri,
was introduced to the vast
throng by one-armed man
from Monett, Mo-, but whose
name we failed to learn. Mr..
Warner was greeted with plaud-
its of welcome. He was in fine
voice, and looked the picture Of
health. His eyes shone with the
lustre of youth, and, barring the
fact that he needed a haircut,
he seemed in perfect form in
every way. Mr.. Warner is
man who takes no umbrage at
bon mot or q good natured quip,
hence we feel no apprehension
at the allnsiop. we have just
made concerning his Sampson
ian locks, which, after all, per-
haps add to, rather than ditract
from, his laconic and majestic
appearance.
Mr.. Warner at once placed
his audience in a good humor,
which is one of the secrets OF
success in a public speaker.
There is nothing stiff, nothing
constrained in his manner. He
is a commoner, plain, blunt,
frank, and is free and easy as
the proverbial old shoe. He
spoke for an hour, commanding
the undivided attention OF his
hearers throughout the entire
time. The auditorium was pack
ed and jammed with people and
many were unable to procure
seats, being compelled to stand
upon the outside to hear him.
Following is a very incom-
plete summary of his speech:
He was glad he came to Baxter,
as it afforded him an opportun-
ity to again touch elbows with
his old comrades-in-arms. He
was prepared to see a large
crowd here, but did not expect
to see the entire population OF
three states and the Indian Ter
ritory assembled upon the re-
union grounds. (Laughterl. He
did not come to make a political
speech, but TO meet and greet
the veterans of the Civil war
and to belp them fight the war
all over again, colloquially, of
course. One of his motives in
coming hefe:&as to get some
thing to eat, and il it were not
for the prohibition sentiments
expressed by the speaker who
preceded him (Mr. SharteD he
would also add that he also
came here in, the hope of get
ting something to drink. He
paid a glowing tribute to the
old canteen and said that its
memory was dear to every old
soldiers heart, for had its con-
tents not buoyed the dropping
spirits of the old soldiers on
many a weary marchi BE said

MIR. SHARTEL'S SPEECH.
Congressman Shartel of Ne
osho, Mo-, was the first speaker.
Mr.. Shartel is a young man and
has already won distinction in
his state. He is a good speaker,
has a distinct enunciation and
a voice of considerable COM
pass. His speech was listened
to with marked attention by
the great multitude that crowd
ed the auditorium. His remarks
elected rounds of applause.

panoplied in battle array; we
hear the clear notes Of the bugle
and the ominous roll Of the
drum; we hear the order to
charge, and see the terrible on
slaught begin. What havoc!
What desperate courage there
is displayed by the contending
armies! What acts of individ-
ual heroism! We see the south
ern troops march right up to
the canons' gaping mouths, and
see the brave union soldiers
standing undaunted by their
guns; we see the red waves of
death dashing over and around
the entire scene, while the clash
of contending steel, the roar OF
guns, and the groans of the
wounded and dying, strike up
on our ears. Seven times, did
the confederate forces rally their
shattered ranks, and under the
leadership of the brave General
Pickett, charge up Round Top
Hill only to meet defeat and
death, and at last the confed-
crates withdrew, despairing of
victory, leaving the union forces
triumphant. 1t was all depicted
by the speaker, even to the in
cident of a little union girl who
was seen hugging the stars and
stripes while the battle ragged
around or near her.
Gen. Pickett, although des-
perately wounded at the battle
of Gettysburg was not killed.
He died in the year 1895, but the
wounds he sustained on that
hard-fought field no doubt has
tened his death.
Mrs. Pickett closed her speech
with a fitting tribute to the
bravery of those who wore the
-blre aud those who wore the
gray, and thanked God, as We
all do, that our beloved country
is again united and its sectional
wounds are healed. Love and
brotherhood is a golden chain
that reaches from the rugged
coast of New England to the
shell-paved shores OF Georgia,

POWERS IN NEWPORT JAIL
Alleged Murderer of Governor GOebel
in Custody of the United
states Marshal.

CINCINNATI, July 1O.-In the custody
of the United States marshal under orders
Of United States Judge Cochran, who last
week assumed jurisdiction in his case,
Caleb Powers, charged with completely in
the murder of William Goebel at Frankfort,
in the winter of 1900, was tonight lodged in
the Newport jail, across the river from
this city, where he will be held pending
a decision OF the various legal points aris
ing out of his transfer from state to federal
jurisdiction. When Powers arrived at the
Newport Jail at 1850 tonight controversy
arose between Jailer Ploeger and Mayor
Helmbold as to what cell the prisoner
should occupy. The mayor insisted that
the cell specially prepared for Powers was
not the proper place Ploeger and Mayor
Helmbold finally came to blows and the
latter was knocked down. During the fight
between the mayor and the jailer the furni-
ture in the cell prepared for Powers was
confscated by unknown persons. Subse-
quently Powers was placed in another cell,
with other prisoners, where he will remain
until Jailer Ploeger can secure other quar-
tiers for him.
For five years Powers has been in prison.
He has been tried four times and sentenced
to death three times, but as he walked into
the Jail he expressed hope of his ultimate
acQuittal of the charge entered against him.
He was the only one OF those charged with
conspiracy TO murder William Goebel to
be convicted and sentenced to death. His
fight for life has been remarkable and the
attorneys today expressed the belief that
three more years may pass before the end
of the present legal complication will make
possible the trial in the federal courts for
which he had applied five weeks ago at
London, Ky.

NEW ORLEANS. July 10.-The eastern
