GOING TO
 CELEBRATE

It wasn't very large crowd that turned out last night at the meeting of the Commercial Club to decide on the question of whether or not but everybody there was of the opinion that it was up to Ketchi- kan to get busy. Accordingly, on motion of Willis Bryant, President Edw. Brown appointed committee of five to have complete charge of the movement with full power to de- wise ways and means and handle the celebration generally.
 The members of that committee are
 D. w. Hunt, chairman
 II. M. stackpole
 John Koel
 Fremont King
 Hi Stevens.
 The committee met this afternoon and decided to get busy right away. as the time for preparation is short. The effort will be made especially to have Prince Rupert and possibly some other team here to play ball and other contests and races will be provided for.
 While money is not very plentiful at this time it is believed that enough can be gotten to provide for q first-class celebration, not on the elaborate scale of the past, perhaps, but enough to guarantee a good time for the people of the town and also for any visitors who may come in as our guests.
 In addiNpn to the disposal of the celebrationS routine matters were at. tended to by the Commercial Club, and the Club listened to a talk by Mrs. McElroy, representative of the Seattle Post ost-Intelligencer.

PUT PRICE
 ON THEIR HEADS

Verona, Italy, June 10-It is re- ported here that the Austrians have offered reward of close to five hundred dollars for the capture of any Alpine Italian soldier alive. The report of course lacks confirmation, but is taken to indicate that the Austrians are trying to urge their troops on against the Italians, whom thus far have had everything their own way Great care is being exer- cised in the advance of both armies, the one against Trient and the other against Trieste. Every mile of the way is thoroughly marked out with range indications and trenches are built so that the Italian forces will be able to fall back without great losses in the event that the Austrian German advance becomes too heavy for them.
