ROLAND ENROUTE
WITH MAIL LOAD

The Roland stage left Fairbanks
for Nenana this morning with a
large consignment Of first and second
class mail, consisting mostly of the
accumulation resulting from the
overflow at Millers early in the
month.
The stage also has the mail that
reached Fairbanks yesterday, but it
is considered doubtful if he delayed
his departure sufficiently long to get
the shipment which reached Fair
banks today. This was an emer-
gency shipment of second class mat
ter, weighing two thousand pounds,
which was forwarded from Chitina
to clean up the mail accumulation
at that point.
The stage is due in Nenana to-
morrow evening.

FEED IS MOVING
ALONG RAILROAD
FOR SUMMER USE
Location of Large Cache Near the
Crossing Indicates Volume of
Work.

! To serve the needs of the many
head of stock that will be in use
! during the period of active con-
struction work on the government
railroad, large feed cache has been
established just across the Nenana
river from Residency (43-mile).
The hauling of forage which has
been going on for some time past,
with several interruptions due to bad
weather, windstorms and drifted
trails, is beoing continued daily,
large loads being hauled in an effort
to complete the allotment ere the
rapid thawing renders the trails I'M
fit for further use. Up to the end
of last month 800 bales of hay had
been successfully hauled and cached,
and the proper proportion of grain
is now being sent out. On the train
leaving this morning a shipment of
800 bags of oats went forward, con-
signed to the station at 20-mile,
where it will be stored temporarily
until hauled to its final destination
at the 43-mile cache.
Feed caches on smaller scale
will be established at 2O-mile, Resi-
dency 3 (35-mile) and Camp IS,
located about seven miles beyond
Residency 8. Roomy and comfort
able corrals, with all necessary gear
and appurtenances for the care of
the stock have already been estab-
lished at these places

GOOD TIME At
THE CLUB SMOKER
Full Attendance For the First Sect
Together" Party Held BY
Members.

A full attendance of members
were on hand last evening at the
Nenana club rooms, and enjoyed a
pleasant evening. Mr.. Harold An
derson, chairman of the entertain
ment committee, made few well
chosen remarks with reference to the
intention of the club to hold smokers
for the members at least twice a
month, and stated that the members
were all urged to attend these little
"get together" parties and have a
good time.
The chairman then introduced Mr..
Chas. Sellander as the first number
of the programme, and Mr. Sellander
favored the members with several
Hawaiian selections on his guitar and
attachment, that were very well re-
ceived by the audience. Following
Mr.. Sellander, Max Smith, accom-
panied by Mr.. Bandman on the
piano, sang a rollicking song of
college days, but as his repertoire
was limited, was unable to respond
to the encores which were asked of
him. The next number was Mr..
j. Hampton Miles, who recited sew
eral snappy pieces of poetry, and
had to return to the platform and
give an exhibition of ventriloquism.
After Mr.. Miles. Mr. Geo. w. Pen
nington rendered several of Mark
Twain's humorous selections and told
several good stories. Mr.. Grady
Summerlin gave recitation and was
forced to come again with an en-
core. Following Mr.. Summerlin, Mr.
Ira Ball told several good stories of
the Sunny South, for which he is
famous, and with that number the
eats were announced and the party
adjourned to the billiard room,
where classy spread was waiting
with salads, sandwiches, ETC., the way
that Dutch" does it.
Smokes were then passed around
and the members were told to follow
their own desires in the form of
the smoker breaking up
at about two o'clock.

interviewed wholesalers in San Fran
cisco and that they had enthusiastic
ally consented, in conjunction with
the San Francisco Chamber of Com
merce, to charter a steamer to tour
Alaska visiting particularly Seward,
as soon as the war conditions permit
securing a steamer without injuring
the shipping program of the gov
eminent.

G. P. Goodman, a prominent
Yukon mining man, while on his
way to the Tenakee Hot Springs, was
a Junealu visitor. He stated that
the strength of the Yukon mining
district would be measured by the
output of the Mayo region. Be-
cause of the high price of labor and
materials the output of the mines
last season was materially lessened
but the future mining is assured
and normal conditions will bring
record in mining. Mayo is $50
miles from Dawson on the Stewart
river.

New Stops and the Traffic.

Washington's car riding public adjusts
ttseh quickly TO changes. This has been
shown by the smoothness with which
the new system Of stops has been in
stalled at the Capital Traction "throat"
in the neighborhood Of 18th street and
New York avenue. As a result of no.
tees pasted on the windows of the cars
for several days previous to the change
the people were well informed of the
new stopping places before the order
Was enforced, and on Sunday and yes
terday, the first dav of heavy traffic,
the rule operated with no friction and
to the great advantage of the movement
Of cars. These changes might be adopted
for other points where the cars con-
verge from various directions. Still the
main requirement is for more cars, to
I'LL the spaces left by the more rapid
movement of the cars as result of the
abolition Of needless stops and the shift
ing of transfer stations. It is crafty
ing to note that the Capital Traction
Company has ordered twenty more ears,
the use of which will materially aid in
carrying the people on that system.
