be brought about by the efforts of one
person, when his heart is in the right
place and his soul is in the work. A
short time ago the city was wrought
up over the discovery of the deplor-
able conditions at the poor farm. The
investigation that was inaugurated by
County Commissioner NJ. J. Carr
showed that the inmates were not
served with butter, eggs or milk, ex-
cept on special occasions, though
these commodities were produced
there and sold to the city hospital,
while the inmates of the poor farm
were glad to have the opportunity of
fishing articles of food from the
garbage that, was returned from the
hospital The efforts of Mr.. Carr
brought about a change in the super
intendent and matron-who also have
hearts-and now the unfortunate in
mates have plenty of milk, butter,
eggs, etc. Formerly they were served
individually, now dishes of food are
placed on the tables and each person
is permitted to help himself or her
self. Arrangements are also being
made to have rest rooms on every
floor of the house, with cots conven-
iently arranged, and hereafter when
any of the inmates is sick he is at
once removed to the city hospital.

THE TUsKEGEE SINGERS.

The Tuskegee Institute Quintette,
accompanied by Mr.. Chas. Winter
Wood. spent three days in st. Paul
and Minneapolis and one day in Duluth.
On Sunday morning they sang at st.
James A. NJ. E. church to very large
congregation. At 3 o'clock in the
afternoon, accompanied by Peavey S.
Johnson, they appeared at the First
M. E. Church and in the evening, in
company with Mr.. Joseph E. Johnson,
they sang at the Westminster Pres
byterian church at Minneapolis. DR..
Bushnell and his congregation gave
the singers very warm reception and
enjoyed the selections rendered. Many
friends were made for the school. On
Monday morning they appeared at
Manchester College and rendered sew
eral selections to the student body
At 3 o'clock, through the kindness
of Mr.. Wood, who placed his 7-pas-
senger Cadillac at their service, they
were shown the points of interest in
Minneapolis and St. Paul, and were
then driven to the Plymouth Congre-
gational church where they enter
tanned large audience.
On Tuesday morning the Quintette
sang at the University of Minnesota
to an audience which packed the Uni
versity Theater to the doors, and
where many were unable to gain ad-
mittance 1t was the desire of the
faculty to have them remain over and
repeat the concert, but an engage
ment in Duluth prevented their doing
so. On Wednesday noon they sang
before the Commercial Club of Duluth
and at Z p. m. at the Hotel Holland
where they were greatly appreciated.
At 8:15 p. m. they appeared before a
rather small but responsive audience
at the First NJ E. Church. The eve
ming was stormy and cold which &C.
counted for the small attendance.
Mr.. Wood and the Quintette left on
the Northern Pacific train at lilo for
st. Paul, thence to Chicago, having
completed to date over ten thousand
miles in their six months tour through
the West and Pacific Coast. They
have one more engagement which is
at St. Louis on the 18th inst. and then
to their Alma Mater, after having
one of the most successful trips in the
history of the Quintette.

VISITORS FROM KUSKOKWIM
 BRING REPORTS OF ACTIVITY

On Saturday last the vanguard of nu merous crowd of Kuskokwim residents reached Flat, among whom were several well-known old-timers of that promising section. More followed on Monday, and now that the trails are being opened up, considerable travel may be expected to and m that valley.
 Among the first to arrive were Carl Thiele, Danny Bryce and Elza Fisher. Mir.
 Thiele Is the former lditarod merchant who
 now located at Akiak, on the lower kus kokwim and supplies a most promising lining section, including the Canyon creek district He brought with a him Q large amount of furs, which are being shipped Outside by parcel post. Mir, Thiele has had 0nsiderable difficulty in landing goods at his present location, having been the victim two marine casualties during the past two years In 1915 the vessel which was bringing his stock North, the gasoline schooner Ruby, was destroyed by fire off Douglas island Southeastern Alaska, and was a total loss, together with her cargo. This year his shipment was on board the power boat kuskokwim River, which, after series of mishaps, was forced to put back to Seattle and abandon her voyage to the Kuskokwim However, Mir Thiele had re- ceived considerable shipment on an earlier trip of that vessel and it is said that there Is not nearly so serious shortage of food supplies as was feared would be the case. Mir Thiele returned home yesterday. He will return immediately and continue his trip to the Outside
 Danny Bryce, the well known Bear creek miner, was also in the party. Danny is on his way Outside to secure hydraulic plant to work his Bear creek property, and will return over the trail in the spring. Even with his crude plant he had 8 very good output last season, and expects to work on an extensive scale hereafter. His mission will take him to the Eastern states. Danny denies that the object of his trip Outside is to lead a fair Yankee to the altar, as had been rumored.
 Elza Fisher. the third member of the party, came here to get material for pros pecting some promising ground which he has located, and incidentally to interview Mir Mitchell the reindeer man, and make his peace with him. Recently while hunt ing Mr. Fisher spied a band of what he supposed were CdIlDOu, diiu nC CAhptiCu HIS magazine rife into them, killing five. When he reached the carcasses he found to his dismay that they were one and all decorated as to ears with buttons and numbers, and he then realized that he had discovered the band of reindeer which wandered from Mir. Twitchell's main herd in this section last summer. The mistake is one that easily can be made, as the animals have become extremely wild, and at distance it is i'm possible to distinguish them from their wild kin Mir Fisher also left on the return trip yesterday.
 w. Y. Fisher and Harry Buhro, who have been working on Marvel creek, in the Kus- kokwim country also arrived at Flat on Tuesday last. They started for Kolmakotf
Iditarod pioneer., 1916-12-16

then determined to await the departure of several men and teams who were leaving for the Kuskokwim, and following their trail, proceed to the portage between the Kuskokwim and Yukon which IS kept open during the winter by the mail carrier. Thus he would have beaten trail all the way, even though the distance is much greater than by the cross country route. The crowd left Tuesday, and it was noticed that Dan brought up the rear of the procession.
 Thus have the mighty fallen; and he who enjoyed the reputation of being one of the toughest" men in this portion of Alaska is reduced to the category of those who st around the stove in severe weather and wait for the other fellow to "break trail" To add to his other sorrows, some unfeellng ms creant stole the makngs of his Christmas dinner from his sled after he had returned to Flat; and the probabilities are that he will have to do some further explaining when he reaches his destination.
