FROM SOUTHWEST, 2,o25
Tnis Is Our Quota for the Red Cross
Nurse Campaign.

secretary of War Baker, Secretary
OF the Navy Daniels and Surgeon Gem
eral Gorgas of the United States army,
nave issued appeals to the Red Cross
workers OF the southwestern division
Tor the immediate recruiting of 2,O25
trained nurses for service in the MIL
itary hospitals in France. Enrolment
iigures in the southwestern division
indicate the quota of 2,025 will not
De reached unless an extra effort is
made by Red Cross workers who have
been asked to urge the nurses to en-
ron. Texas has been asked to supply
663 nurses, Kansas AS, Missouri 414,
oklahoma 276 and Arkansas 227.
In addition to the plea for the en-
roilment of nurses the three officials
nave asked that young women imme-
olately enter training schools so as TO
prepare to take the places of those
called into active service abroad. The
reports of the training schools on the
number OF applicants have not been
completed.
Daniels in his appeal says that the
future of the United States depends
on the enrolling of nurses. He asks
the American people to stop at no
hospitals with trained nurses.
Gorgas in sending out the country
wide appeal for $4,000 nurses, said the
army and navy have grown so rapidly
and the burden placed upon the
American army in France has be-
come so. great. that unless the neces-
sary number of nurses are recruited
the country will face grave crisis.
Baker announced today that TO pre-
vent the overburdening of the civilian
population at the conclusion of The
war by throwing upon them the care
OF cripples, the womanhood of Amer
lea should answer this call immedi-
ate1y and by their care of wounded
men in the hospitals nurse them back
to health and strength.

A Series of Three Games Has Been Arranged With Fairbanks For
 Sunday and Monday.

M. J. Cooney, manager of the Nenana baseball team, has made ar engagements for a series of three games to be played with the Fair banks team on Sunday and Monday.

 Two games will be played on Sunday, one commencing at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and the other at half past six in the evening. The last game of the series will be played at 6:3O P. M. on Monday.
 Very close games are expected, as the Fairbanks boys have been in constant practice, but it is thought that our boys will keep the bacon home.

STEEL |S MOVING RAPIDLY TOWARD
 THE COAL FIELD
The Laying of Steel Beyond Fish Creek Bridge Was Resumed
 Yesterday Morning.

All of the camps housing the men working on force account on the new D line have now been moved and installed in their designated positions on the new D line and the crews have settled down to work.
 Camp 15 which is made up en- tirely of the ballasting and surfac- ing gangs, is on the south bank of Fish creek; and Camp 16, hous- ing the day and night crews of the steel laying gangs, is on the north bank of Fish creek.
 The steel laid by the day crew of the steel gang was found to be sufficient to keep a very large force of men ballasting and surfacing, and therefore the night crew of the steel gang has been added to the strength of the ballasting and surfacing gangs.
 The work is said to be progress ing very favorably and rapidly, and up to last night when the steel gang quit for the day, 5000 feet of steel had been laid beyond the Fish creek bridge, making the total of the steel laid on the D line from the switch up to where the men quit work last night, 17,OO0 feet.
 A large number of the clearing contractors on the new D line have completed the work undertaken and by the end of the present month it is expected that all of the clear ing work will have been completed.
 Progress is being made by the grading contractors, but it is hard to say just when all the grading work on the new line will be con- pleted.
 The new D line, commencing at the switch on the old line near Fish creek until it joins the old line again near Bartlett's old camp, is just about twenty miles long.

Carpenter Shop of Commission Is Detached From Main Building
 and Moved 60 Feet.

The Alaskan Engineering com missions carpenter shop, which was formerly part of the long struc- ture housing the power plant, car penter shop and machine and black smith shop, has been detached from the main building and will be moved back sixty feet. This is done as a fire protection measure.
 The carpenter shop has already been detached and placed on skids and the actual moving of it to its new location will be taken in hand at once. It will probably be in place at the end of the days work.
 A new structure to serve as a paint shop is now being erected and there will also be an interval of 60 feet between it and the nearest building to it, to guard against fire.
 The A. E. c. plans call for a new building to serve as a machine shop and it is expected that the work of erecting this building will be taken in hand soon. It is not defin- itely known, at the present time, just where this new building will be put up in the Commission yard, but it is expected that a suitable site will be selected in a day or two.
 The building now housing the ma chine shop will be used as a store room for machine parts and tools, as soon as the new machine shop is ready for occupancy.

 NEAR OLD RUBY TOWN

The steamer Panama brings the news of small strike being made above the town of Ruby, a short time ago, by a man whose name could not be ascertained. While digging a we'll some little distance above the town, colors were dis covered and as the depth of the we'll increased more colors were found in such quantities as to warrant the man setting up a rocker and it is reported that he rocked out one hundred dollars in one day. The strike did not cause any excitement around Ruby, and the presumption is that the man ran upon a pocket of gold.
