corners outside Of the safety zones are
stopped and warned just as the autos
are when they fail to stop for the

stop on the near side Of the streets and

FIRST HONORs.

The first application OF steam power
for prOpelling carriages was made BY
Oliver Evans, who died in New York IS
years ago. Evans was born in Della
ware in 1775, and in his youth was a
wheelwright's apprentice About 1900
he attempted to build a horseless car
rage, but the result, which was an
ordinary carriage with a steam engine
to supply the motive power, caused so
much mirth and derision that Evans
abandoned the scheme. He made sew
eral improvements.

DEMOCRATS WILL
 CELEBRATE MAR. 4

me Juneau Democratic Club held a special meeting in Gross hall last night for the purpose of making ar rangements for the smoker that is to be held on March 4, in honor of the first anniversary of the inauguration of President Woodrow Wilson. It was a very successful meeting, one of the most enthusiastic gatherings since the organization of the club. The main object of the meeting was placing the entire management of the smoker in the hands of the executive board. The funds necessary were raised at the meeting by contributions.
 After disposing of this matter dis cussion on the disposition of Alaska's insane patients took up considerable time. Resolutions were passed plac ing the club on record as favoring the establishing of permanent hospital for the insane in Alaska. pr. De- Vighne is chairman of a committee appointed to forward a copy of the resolution and bring 1t properly before the department before the new con tract is made with institutions in the States for the care of Alaska's in sane.

LAUNCH UNION IS
 LOST WITH CREW

There is little doubt but that the gas boat Union. plying out of Lituya Bay is lost, and. if true. William Ger main, owner of the craft, and Strat' ton who helped him run the boat, per ished with the wreck. The Union left Lituya Bay S5 days ago for Dixon liar, Dor. which is only 5-hour run. She did not show up at Dixon Harbor nor has she been seen leaving Lituya Bay. although relief and searching par ties have secured the country looking for the missing boat and men. Short ly after the Union left Lituya Bay a storm came up and 1t is almost cer- tainty that the boat never escaped. The Union was a good sea boat, S5 feet long, and formerly was on the Haines' Skagway mail run.
 News confirming the disaster was brought to Juneau by Sid Hooper and A. A. Gabbs, of the mail boat Fox who arrived with the Fox from Lituya Bay at five o'clock this morning. The men who lost their lives with the Union are we'll known in Juneau.
 The Fox made the trip to Lituya to take a large prospecting party to that section. making the round trip in four days.
 Malcolm and Jack Campbell are at Lituya Bay, but expect to leave for Ju- neau within the next three days.

Seattle NOnlinateS
 TrenhOlme and Gill

yesterday leave no doubt about the nomination of former Mayor Hiram C.. Gill and J. D. Trenholme for the office of Mayor. The indications are that Gill has received about 2S,OOO votes and J. D. Trenholme 12,0OO. Richard winsor, Socialist, is running a close third. The other candidates are far in the rear with Austin E. Grifiths leading.
 Of the votes counted, Gill has re- ceived nearly 40 per cent. of the total cast. In order to defeat him in the general election, Trenholme will have to receive from 75 to so per cent. of those that voted for other candidates in the primary yesterday and major ity of the voters that did not partici' pate in the primaries.

FIRE LAoDlEs PULL
 OFF GREAT SMOKER

The fire bell rang last night, but there wasn't any fire except in the bosoms of the fire laddies who had gathered at headquarters for good time. The bell was used to call the boys in, and they gathered to the num- Der of half a hundred or more.
 It was one of the most successful smokers ever held since the depart ment was organized. The Juneau or chestra was in attendance and furn- ished excellent music for the occasion. There was singing and story telling and plenty to eat and smoke. George Lovegrove. talented monologue art ist, added much to the enjoyment of the evening by his work.
