RAILROAD WORK SOUTH OF TOWN
 IS PROGRESSING
About Two and One-Half Miles of Track Has Now Been Laid on
 the New D Line.

Commencing from today an extra surfacing gang and extra night crews for the locomotives, Lidger- wood unloader and the piledriver will be put on and the work, as a consequence, will move rapidly. Hitherto the Bucyrus dragline ex- cavator had been working nights stripping the overburden, while the day gangs excavated the gravel for ballasting and surfacing, as there was no night crew to do the ballast ing. The night crew for this work could not have been put on because the camp cars for their accommoda- tion were not ready.
 The necessary. camp cars were completed and sent out the line, and this morning night crew for ballast ing and surfacing were signed on and will commence operations inn mediately. Night crews have also been put on the locomotives and all necessary flat cars that will be used in hauling gravel have been assem- bled ready for immediate action.
 Steel has been laid on the new D line for distance of two and one-half miles from the switch and 1t is expected to reach the north bank of Fish creek sometime tonight Piledriver No. 4, also known as the track driver, has been sent out with a day and night crew for the pur- pose of driving the piling for the
 bridge acress the creek. It is ex- pected that this work will be con- pleted in short order and the track
 extended.
 A new engineer is expected
 shortly to run on the night shift
 on locomotive 27O, and Lester Sum-
 erlin, fireman on the 27O, has been
 promoted to engineer to complete
 establishment. The output of gravel
 will be more than doubled and the
 locomotives and cars have a busy
 time ahead.

POWER PLANT IS 10 BE SHUT DOW
 FOR TWO DAYS
Repairs to Fire Box of Boiler. In Commissions Power Plant Will
 Be Effected.

Announcement is made that the Alaskan Engineering commission power plant will be shu. down for the purpose of making necessary re- paris to the foundation oe the fire. box of the boilers.
 The plant will be closed at mid night of Saturday and it is expected that the necessary repairs that will be undertaken will be completed to enable the plant to be operated again on Monday, probably in the evening.
 The two boilers in the power house are in continuous use and, at the present time, the Commission has no other boiler that can be used while the others are undergoing re- pairs, and this necessitates com- plete shutdown of the whole plant whenever repairs to the boilers be- come necessary.
 It is hoped that adequate measures will be taken to keep the plant running when such repairs become necessary in the future.
