Vanguard of Seward
 Travellers Arriving

After q days on the trail, and lead ing a host of stampeders which he figured at about 5 travellers, George Dreibelbis, formerly deputy marshal under Marshal Ferry, accompanied by Charles McWhorter and Perry Warner, arrived in the lditarod early in the week and reported that continuous stream of travel can be looked for over the trail during the balance of the winter.
 He reports the trail in fine condition at the present time, as the blizzards have ceased and there has been enough travel to keep the going open. Road houses are scattered all along, or at least tent shelters, so that it is now possible to make the distance without carrying an outfit.
 Many of those who are now on their way are bringing pick and shovel each, and most of them are headed for the Kuskokwim where they expect 10 open up some sort of 8 camp this sum- mer. However, it is certain that large proportion of them will switch to the Iditarod when they learn of the late Encouragement in the Kuskok- vim.
 He believes that su uSseQuent travellers can make the Iditarod from Seward in Is days as travelling conditions are bound to improve as the season pro- gresses.
 The read commission accomplished good work through it's representatives, Goodwin and Eide, and the trail is thoroughly blazed all the way Several cutoffs have been effected, notably the cutoff from Young gberry's at the mouth. of Big river,-20 miles the other side of the N. c. Co. post on the Tokotna-tO South Fork, as we'll as cutotfs engineer ed by Eide on the other side of the pass. Goodwin's party arrived at Se- ward on Feb. 9, after experiencing considerable trouble from shortage of grub and doG-feed.
 Both McWhorter and Warner were pioneers of the Iditarod, but this is Mr. Dreibelbis' first visit here. He will look the situation over for week or two, and if he finds the camp to his liking, he may decide to put in the season here.

DIVINE SERVICES
 WELL ATTENDED

Taking advantage of Archdeacon Sucks visit to the Iditarod, large number Of people attended the divine services which were held at Ansley's hall at II and S:30 last Sunday. So keen was the interest taken in the message which the archdeacon had to deliver, that the hall was crowded to its capa- city, and many were unable to gain ad- mittance. The sermons were much appreciated. In the afternoon Mir. Stuck visited Flat City, and addressed a large congregation at the the A. B. hall.
 Collections were taken up at each service, the proceeds of which will be used for the establishment of 8 church in this city during the coming summer

 There was the road from Iditarod to Flat and from Flat to 2-a Otter. A good road was built up Flat creek, all this work being done through tax collect ions and private subscriptions.
 About $500 was expended on the Dikeman trail, most of it being for camp equipment which can be used this year.
