May Declare
 A New War

Petrograd, Feb. 21. - Bolshe- wiki leaders declared this morning that ]" the Germans continue to ad- vance towards Petrograd, they will defend the city with the Red Guard, and that they will at once begin to harass the German advance by guerilla warfare.
 No plans nave been made for the evacuation of the city.
 The Bolsheviki say that this is a new war and not the old one. If Germany continues to invade new territory, and does not witndraw forces at once, that the Russians will present a solid front against the enemy, as they believe that proletariat Russia is able to con- tinue the struggle.

.|CE CARNIVAL PROVES SUCCESS

The municipal skating rink was the scene of Skagway's first winter carnival last night, and proved a success in every particular
 A number of the devotees of the exhilarating sport of skating were present in costume, and many dainty and amusing Representations were noticed.
 The kiddies had the time of their young lives, and many of them wore masks and costumes, some grotesque, some dainty, and some comic. Charley Chaplin, coons, ,hob-gobblins, and other Mother Goose characters were present, and the little tots glided over the ice in utter abandon, for the moment ut terly oblivious to the presence of grown-ups.
 TheSboys in khaki were prominent among the joyous through, the Pet erSon having brought up 8 capacity load from the post
 The only mar to the pleasure of the evening was the fact that the weather was a trifle too soft, which had the effect to soften the ice in places and these spots were soon badly cut up by the crowd of skaters.
 As a demonstration of what may grow out of this experiment, the reuslts were highly satisfactory, for it was proven beyond g doubt that q winter carnival in skagway can De made an interesting event in the winters prgoram for entertain ment.
