OUR FIRE TERRIBLE
 AFFAIR

That the Seattle Times has a cor respondent in Fairbanks who is doing his best to break into the sensational class is evidenced by he yellow account contained in its issue of December l., of the lire on Front street. The leading para graph, which is by no means the worst, reads as follows:
 With the thermometer standing 90 degrees below zero, tiremen and volunteers valiantly struggled with fire that broke out at ? o'clock yesterday morning and caused dam age estimated al Sl22,30o. The flames consumed nine buildings, and after they had been subdued, Will liam Buckley, chief of the fire de- partment and Mayor A. J. Nordale, removed number of tiremen and volunteers to the St. Joseph's and St. Francis hospitals, where they are being treated for frostbltes Of a mere or less serious nature. Am putations of fingers and toes will be necessary in number of cases.
 The losses suffered by the Varl- ous property owners is then given in detail, each just ten times as great as it really was. More heart rending details of tremen falling frozen ill their tracks and of thrill ing rescues are then added.

HUNTER SHOT OFF TOO MUCH

Talkmuch got into trouble the other day. He is great hunter, and being such cannot resist the temptation to tell about 1t. While in the barber chair Saturday he ur- surped the rights and privileges Of the tonsorial artist and held the center of the stage, telling Of the millions of mountain sh CD he'd killed and what he would do should some of the officiCus deputy United States marshals molest him for his actions. Deputy Marshal Matthews happened to be in the other char. The man working over Talkmuch tried in every way to smother the highsounding talk. He drew the towel so tight around the throat CT Talkmuoh that he could hardly breathe, but without avail; then he covered his face with the towel and inadvertently showed it half way down his throat, but the man talk ed on.
 After being turned loose he took one of the unoccupied chairs and continued his gabfest; apparently seeming to like the sound Of his own voice. Matthews, after retlr- ing from his chair, took quite a time tieing his scarf and tidying up, and all the time Talkmuch was tell ing what he would do should any son of a gun of a marshal try to apprehend him. Then Matthews walked over to Talkmuch and, tap ping him on the shoulder, told him that he was marshal and that he wanted him. That settled the matter at once. Talkmuch went and they both proceeded to the marshars Of fee. There MT. Talkmuch was giv' en the third degree in short order and when the boys were through with him he did not have squeak left in him. He was then told to go, with warning to talk less and in all cases to be careful and ascertain who occupied the adjoin ing berth.
 It is hinted that Talkmuch will be a good dog now.

XMAS DO|NCS ON
 THE TRAIL

WASHBTRN. Alaska, Dec. 25.- The proprie'Ors of the rcadhouse at this station. Messrs Martin X Thurman entertained al sumptu- ous Christmas dinner a party of fifteen local r siden's. It was a very enjoyable affair, the more so be cause of the fact that a majority of those present were prOspectOrs and employees Of the Orr Stage Line, we'll seasoned by the stormy knocks incident to the performance of their respective duties. Dan Mcdonald, line manager for the stage company sang several songs in a manner cal culated 10 keep the party clamoring for another. and still one more. B.. F. Snuff rendered several recitatiCns in a true Missourian style and also danced the clog to the music of the quicker Of Dams mouth. A. F. Stowe made an after dinner speech and also contributed a poetic stanza to each of the quests present and for the host and the cook, Miss Edith s. Arlbord. The verses were appre- ciable to local happenings during the past year and directed in a Imaginable manner to all. He had an impfomptu verse also for a stranger within our gates Che had just came in) that ran thus:
 Here's to the stranger, now in out of
 danger,
 Who is mushing his way to the
 coast,
 On the whole dod gasted trip,
 May his fcot never slip.
 Is the wish of the guests and
 our host.
 Miss Arlbord in an artistic man. her gave an illustration of Swedish two steps and other dances, and in sweet melody for which her rich contralto voice is noted, sang many Swedish verses A quartet of male voices developed, led by Curley, the signal corps man, which displayed a blending of harmonious activity that was nothing short of wonderful.
 The dinner spread was magniti- cent. Nothing the Fairbanks mar ket contains was eliminated and, MT. Editor, there is not room in your whole darned paper to print the bill of fare so we will cut it out.
