is over. But these two young ladies have arranged 10 combat that possi- bility as far as they are concerned. according to reports. For they have arranged a calling scale. and each young man who desires few mo ments of their company is required to make date far in advance.
 Of course, there are some favored ones, according to reports. And happy is he who is given five minutes of either one of the young ladies time at least two evenings in the week.
 The young ladies are now said to have arranged card index system with the names of all of the boys on different cards This is kept in plain view in the "hungaloo," where each fellow can see the time allotted to him and to the others. In this manner confusion and misunder standings are avoided

QUEENS IN THEIR OWN DOMAIN.

QUEENS IN Not long ago two THEIR OWN well known and pop DOMAIN. ular young Fairbanks
 ladies went down to Nenana to go to work for the Al askan Engineering commission. And that they are princesses Of royal blood in the domain presided over by King Frederick r. is the report which reaches Fairbanks. But, re- gardless of that fact, they cannot do without mother" the latest re port being to the effect that two mothers are now busily engaged in shopping for daughter so far away It's just something to fix up the "bungaloo," according to latest ad- vices.
 And the reports state that the "bungaloo" is to be some palatal residence after it is fixed up. For we" have moved from our tent into a suite of rooms. "A man comes and builds our fire every morning and keeps it going during the day and also brings in all of our wood writes one of the young ladies tC mother. But that isn't where the "queening" comes in.
 Down at Nenana there are between forty and sixty young men who en joy the society of young ladies, and the two Fairbanks girls, with the exception of one or two others, are the only girls there. Consequently it seemed like fate intended thai there should be many broken hearts at Nenana before the present winter

 fuses to pay an cleo ton bet be made with E. w. Grif- fin The chief reason. of course, is the fact that Bernie does not yet con cede Wilson's reelection. Another reason, however, is that Bernie thinks that Mir Griffin got the best of him on the bet. It was at least a three to one shot, with the odds in favor of MT, Griffin. according 10 Bernie.
 The bet was for a new suit of clothes Look at the respective sizes of the two men and then guess the riddle.

Learn Tax
Limit Isn't
Is Mills

II the city officials find them
selves unable to operate Tacoma's
municipal machinery on diminish
ed appropriations next year, be-
cause of the cut made In assess
civilizations of taxable property,
they will be able to increase the
city tax levy.
Although II has always been
understood that the present levy
of Is mills was the legal limit,
City Controller Shoemaker an
nounced Monday that it would he
possible to stretch the figure.
The law allows certain eXcep-
tions to the 15-mill limit, Shoe
maker says. For instance, a tax
of one-sixth Of one mill. above the
Is mill limit, is permitted for the
library maintenance.
BY taking advantage of all
these exceptions, the council can
raise the levy In all one mill or
more. This will necessarily re-
suit in a still higher tax for city
property.
Members of the council are
agreed that they will not stretch
the levy unless they find it i'm
possible to cut down operating ex-
penses 100000 year to meet
the new valuation figures.
