 The Town Council gave a party for the whole town Thursday evening, the 18th. After the ''eatings," games were indulged in. Many expect to leave town soon, and this party was a sort of farewell gathering.
 It is not very often that Alaskans wish for rain, but every one in Metla- kahtla breathed sigh of relief when the rain began to fall last week. The snow is gradually melting and one occasionally seems to catch sniff of spring, but no one is getting out his straw hat.

The l2th day of February, 1909, be- ing the tooth anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, and is to be gen. erally observed throughout the Nation, it seems most fitting that the day should be specially observed with ap- proprate cerimonies by Alaskans.
 Therefore. I, William l.. Dustin, acting Governor of Alaska, recommend that Friday. the l2th day of February, be observed in commemoration of a towering figure in the history of the nation. and one of the really great men the world has produced by ap- propriate ceremonies and with this ob- rect in view it is further recommend ed that the people of Alaska general ly, as we'll as the public schools, churches, civic, military, fraternal, social, labor, trade, commercial and industrial bodies, assemble at their usual places of meeting and honor the occasion by paying tribute to the memory of the life, character, states manship, patriotism and public ser- vices Of the President who guided the snip of state through it's most perilous straits: and that addresses be made showing the grandner of character, nobility of life, and epoch making career of Abraham Lincoln, the Great Emancipator, and that his famous Gettysburg speech be read, and if possible short history of his life GOV ering his triumph over adverse cir cumstances of hls early life be rected, as an incentive to the youth of our land, thus teaching the lesson of life and achievements of this great ex- emplar of our American civilization.
 In testimony thereof, l have here unto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the District of Alaska to be affixed at Juneau, the Capital, this twenty seventh day of Janurary, A. D. 1909, and of the Independence of the United States, the one hundred and Thirty fourth year.

Moter Boats Will
 Have a Place

Seattle Jan. 29-For the first time in the history of worlds fairs the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition which will be held from June 1 to October l5, 1909 will have a large exhibit of mo- tor boats. Henry E. Dosch director of exhibits and privelges has now com pleted plans for the display.
 Manufacturers are taking up the matter and their letters indicate that they will put forth their best efforts to have big exhibits. They realize that Seattle is good market for mo- tor boats and that mure than likely they will be able to dispose of all of the boats on exhibition and more too by the time the fair closes.
 The exposition being situated as it is, with Lake Washington bordering on one side of the grounds and Lake Union On the other, affords an unex- celled opportunity for the demonstra- tion or motor boats. Lake Washing ton, which is the largest fresh water body in the Pacific Northwest, hay
 ing an area of thirty-eight square miles, is piled by scores of motor boats. At the present time Seattle has motor boat club with strong mem- ership and it's pleasure cruises and races are held on Lake Washington.
 It is asserted that there is no other city in this country endowed with bet ter facilities for motor boating than Seattle. Besides Lake Washington and Lake Union there are the broad waters of Puget Sound which afford the enthusiast great opportunity.
 There is both salt and fresh water and scenery on all of the waters about Seattle is unsurpassed. The climate is such that motor boating can be en- joyed all the year around.
 A pavilion for the motor boat dis play will be built on piles over Lake Washington in one of the prettiest spots on the exposition's shore line. It will be 100 by 600 feet in size and will be provided with slips varying in width from 6 by 20 feet to 20 by 80 feet. On the shore side of the pavilion will be exhibited boats, machinery and acc sol ies. The exhibitors will be enabled to have their boats in the wa ter for demonstration to visitors by trial trips on the lake.
 Motor boat races will be feature of the sports at the exposition and it is expected that many records will be broken. A motor boat show will be given in Seattle this coming February by the Seattle Motor Boat Club under the auspices of the National Motor Boat Association of the United States.
