 The local branch of this great A merican fraternal society is che of the pioneer aeries, as it's number will indicate, and since it's insti- luton there has been something ov- CT two thousand aeries instituted throughout the United States and Canada.
 For the past two Or three years there has been a lapse of interest in Skagwa Eagledom, but the local members during the past few months have awakened to the fact that new members could be se- cured, and with this end in view the "old birds" have busted themselves with the result that there has been initiated several prominent resi- dents of tbis jurisdiction during the Das+ few months, and plans are un- der way which when perfected should place the Eagles among the top notchers in this locality as re- gards fraternal societies.
 The new officers elected, and who will be installed on New Years nigh the first meeting night of January, falling on January l, are as fol lows:
