for employers
Five worried looking Russian bust

the minister OF Justice OF Russia and the
idol OF the Russian people
They waited for two hours until ker-'
enSky, who worked twenty-five hours a
day received them.
What can do for you'" asked Ker-
ensky.
Please place US under arrest" petit
toned the five
Why do you wish to be ARE sted2'
Its the only way to save our lives
and our factory" Their spokesman ex-
planned that they were the directors of
a large factory ;Sthey were furnishing
huge supplies for the army, and thcif
workmen had announced that they
would strike in. the morning and kill
anyone who opposed them.
III they know you have arrested US
they will go back to work contented. 4"
Well I've been everything but
iailer, and | might as well try that job,

can show it to the working people and
save his own life"
kerensky complied, and a messenger
was sent during the early morning hours
to the factory OH the outskirts of the

To keep on the safe side the five d.

LADIES GATHER ID MAKE PLANS
 FOR RED CROSS
Largely Attended Meeting Held This Afternoon and New Program
 Outlined.

That Red Cross activities will be greatly stimulated in Nenana during the next few weeks was clearly in dicated this afternoon, when about thirty-five ladies gathered at Grace church, at the call of President Bowen, for the purpose of talking over plans for the coming season.
 One of the money raising plans decided upon was a series of card parties, which will be held by the ladies on Saturday afternoons, com mencing week from tomorrow. Each lady attending will be required to deposit fifty cents into the fund, and at the end of the series a prize, donated for the purpose, will be awarded to the lady holding the highest score.
 The parties will be held at the Franklin K. Lane school house, the school board having offered the use of the building for that and other Red Cross uses, which may be de- cided upon from time to time.
 A number of committees who will serve during the year, were appoint ed this afternoon and all the ladies are taking a patriotic interest in the work assigned to them.

PENDY MAKES HIT
 WITH YARN SALES
Ladies Take Charge of New Store and Add Substantial Sum to
 Yarn Fund.

FAIRBANKS, May 3.-Goods to the value of $645 were sold by the ladies of Fairbanks last night, be- tween the hours of eight and ten, during which period they were left in complete charge of the new I'm perial Cigar store. When the ladies moved in, MT. Pendergraft moved out and all the money taken in over the counters has been added to the Red Cross yarn fund.
 While the sale was on, the I'm perial was thronged with eager buy CTS, the scene much resembling the old boom days, when money was much more plentiful in the camy than it is at the present time.
 The new Imperial is one of the best appointed and most attractive places in all Alaska.
