OFFICIALS GO
 TO IDlTAR0D

To continue their trip through Al aska, the N. C.. officials who have been in Fairbanks for the past few days left on the Jacobs for the low CT river. It is the intention of the party to go to the Iditarod and spend some time viewing the company's holdings there and otherwise attend to the annual business. After the business end is completed Superin- tendent Richmond will come up the river to Ruby for the annual in spection there and will return to Fairbanks about the first of August.
 MT. Sloss and MT. Fairbanks will continue on down the river and con- plete the belt tour of Alaska by the outside passage. MT. Sloss, who is making his first trip through the interior, although being connected with the company for over a score of years, is delighted with his trip and says it is the one scenic tour of the continent. Next year he will probably make another trip with a large party.

YUKON BOYS ON
 WAY TO ENLIST

DAWSON, Y. T., June 29.-A large number of men from the Tower river country arrived here last night headed for the Outside. It is stated that the number was in the neigh. borhood of 100. Of this number there are about twenty who will enlist for overseas service on ar irving at the first recruiting station.
 That the movement of men from this section for the purpose of en. listing as not abated is evidenced by the leaving of ninety selected boys from this place for service. All are stated to have arrived safely at their destination. With this con- signment in service the total num- Der of men from the Yukon country now serving with the colors is in the neighborhood of 600.

SEIZED LIQUOR
 IS DESTROYED

Yesterday afternoon a force from the marshals office assisted by Chief of Police Wiseman destroyed the liquor which was seized from Felix Donatelli. Since the seizure the liquor has been in storage in a Third avenue warehouse. The de- struction of the prohibited article attracted small crowd. Nearly $50 gallons were poured out i'm the street, forming large pools many feet in length and extending both ways from the warehouse.
 The effort of Donatelli to beat the law has proved a costly one to him. His fine and the costs came to $531.70. and in addition to this there was collected $73 revenue. which, coupled with the original cost of the liquor, makes quite an ex- pensive experiment.

SLIGHT HITCH
 IN MAT GAME

Owing to a rumor concerning the status of one of the men signed for the wrestling match, slight hitch has been caused which will have to be cleared up before further progress can be made.
 The party in question, Eugene Travellers, is registered from Cir. cle as an alien enemy, and in his behalf MT. Travellers makes a statement concerning that condition of affairs.
 Coming to America when but a youth, he lived in New York until he attained his majority and has al. ways considered himself an Ameri can citizen, in fact, had been so ad- vised by lawyers on several occa- sions. He has been in Alaska for number of years, and on the declaration of war between the Unit. ed States and Germany he offered to enlist at Circle, the place of his to enlist at Circle. On answering the informed that he would have to register as an alien enemy, as he was not an American citizen
 It is upon this status that the hitch in the match occurs, as the manager is afraid that public opinion would have much to do with the attendance at the match.
 MT. Travellers in a statement said that to set all doubts at rest as to the sincerity of his American prin ciples he would be willing to go on with his end of the match and give all the proceeds to the Red Cross his opponent willing. Otherwise, with public prejudice set aside, the match would be held as originally arranged

ENTHUSIASTIC
 SENDOFF GIVEN
 OUR HOME BOYS

During the greatest outburst of patriotic enthusiasm ever demon strated in Fairbanks the transport Gen. J. W. Jacobs pulled away from the dock yesterday noon bearing the quota Of drafted men from the Fairbanks district
 The weather was ideal and the entire population of the town was at the dock to bid the boys God speed and a safe return. Prettily festooned with flags of many na' tions and decorated with trees and branches from the woods that havo been an environment of the men, the dock entrance was transformed, and as the men passed under the colors they were showered with flowers by a bevy of Fairbanks fairest maids.
 Shortly before the time for the departure the men assembled at the office of the local board and formed into company column. In the van of the parade was the Fairbanks band, followed by a delegation of the Camp Fire Girls bearing a large American Flag. Immediately follow ing the Flag came the men who were to embark for the post at Fort Gib- bon. To the martial strains of the band the parade marched up Second avenue to Lacy, down Lacy to front. down Front to the dock, passing through lines of the cheering popu- lace. Arriving at the dock the com. pany marched on board, where the line was broken and the men came ashore to mingle with their friends until time for the boats departure.
 As the final whistle was blown there was prolonged cheering by the civilians, which was answered in greater volume by those leaving. When the transport left the dock it was preceded down stream by the steamer Idler having on board the band and the girls who acted as bearers to the colors. Draping the Flag over the side of the boat the escort went down stream for some distance then turning, came up, pass ing the transport and exchanged the "bOn voyage" A launch filled with citizens fired a continuous salute as the Jacobs went on its way, as also did many citizens stationed along the river bank.
 Too deep for expression was the feeling among the population as the transport started on it's journey, and the prayers of Alaskans went with those who will in time be called upon to defend the honor of the nation.

BIG TIME IS HELD, AT NENANAF FOR
 DRAFTED QUOTA

NENANA, June 29.-The transport Jacobs arrived here this evening at 6:S0 with everyone on board in the best of spirits. The whole town was down to the waterfront to see the arrival of Alaska's first contri button to the world struggle.
 Immediately after the boat was tied up to the dock the Fairbanks and Nenana quotas were formed into marching order and taken to the Red Cross headquarters with mili. tary escort from the members of the 14th Infantry doing guard duty here. With the parade were the lady members of the Red Cross dressed as nurses. A large Ameri. can Flag carried by fourteen ladies of the city was also in the line of march.
 Arriving at the headquarters build. ing the men were seated to deli. cious repast furnished by the ladies of the Red Cross and the Nenana club. Those in charge of this end of the entertainment have been hard at work for several days planning to give the boys the best there was, and not man but who was filled to capacity.
 Following the dinner the boys were shown around the town, and at 9 o'clock were taken to the labor hall, where the evening was passed with dancing, the hall and everything in connection with the dance being do mated for the occasion.
 The scene was further enlivened by the arrival of several launches from Fairbanks shortly after the Ja- cobs tied up. On the launches were a large party of young people who came down to help entertain the men at their last evening before entering actual service. It is said that about forty arrived from the upper town.
 The dance will be continued up to the hour of departure of the trans port, which will be at 2 o'clock Sum- day morning. Everyone is treating the guests with the greatest con sideration and nothing is too good for the boys who are leaving.

 boys: He'd never put his foot in this town again Nothing doing! No chance!" And he was one of the first men in this camp, too. His familiar face had for years appeared in the haunts along Front Street where he'd read the papers freely and criticise freely. But never again Fairbanks for me I don't have to go there. I'd rather have Graehl any old time-huh! l got enough of that town!" And, he actually stayed away from this town four months-and lived in Graehl! Gee, but he must have been grabbed what? Outlook who's here again. Why if it isn't the oldtimer! Yes, he's been seen around on Front street recently. smilingly shaking hands and greeting everybody-ex- actly like Elam Harnish, who just got back from burning daylight Out side. In answer to questions as to where he'd been all the time, this Sourdough who has forgotten his grouch against dear old Fairbanks, muttered something about up the Big Chena-but, it's long, long time since he's been up the Big Cinema.

 of much rejoicing among the sons of Italy, in Fair banks, and just because they cele- brated in home" style with juice Of the little red grape some one went and told a great big policeman and the next day he came around and arrested the host and seized about two years supply of grape juice and took it away. And then the judge made Felix dig down in the old wool en sock and get five hundred dol lars for having wet stuff in dry town.
 Felix doesn't mind the five hun. dred for he can easily shine two thousand more pairs of shoes but where, of where can he get anything to celebrate with when his country men capture Budda-Pesth and an Ital- ian celebration without wine is about as hilarious an occasion as Quaker prayer meeting.

 She arrived home and opened it up and found loaf cake.
