ANDERSON BEEN
 SEVERELY HURT WHILE WORKING

Yesterday afternoon Julius Ander- son. one of the proprietors of the Fairbanks laundry, received a pain full altho not a serious injury. In some manner while testing the heat of the water in the washing ma. chine 1t started and ring on one of his fingers became caught in one of the perforations. pulling the arm In as the machine rotated.
 Owing to the pulley on the drive wheel being slightly loose the arm was taken in only as far as the thick part of the muscles on the up- per arm. resulting in severe bruise and pinching. But for the belt be. ing loose 1t is more than likely that the arm would have been badly broken. if not pulled off. The in. jured man Is under the care of Dr.. M. F. Hall, who expects to have his patient around within a short time.

SIX ADMITTED
 AS CITIZENS ON
 MONDAY NIGHT

At the hearing on the petitions for naturalization in the district court last Monday night six petitioners successfully passed the required ex- aminations and were admitted as citizens of the United States.
 Those who successfully passed were John Montan. Fairbanks; Matthew Fttchett Love. Fairbanks; Samuel Cote. Tolovana; Desiderio Ar diuno. Fox; Elgin Penrose virden, Fox. and Martin Uahtrin, Fox. These will be given certificates of citizen. ship. entitling them to all privileges of the native born American.
 It Is urged that those who are elig. ible for citizenship should file their petitions in the clerks office as soon az possible in order that they may be heard at the fall hearing. Nine. ty days must elapse before the time of filing the petition and the hear. ing. It is more than likely that the court will make an extensive trip this summer and 8 delay in filing at this time means a considerable de. lay in the final action.

NECESSITY SURELY Io
 MOTHER OF INVENTION

The old axiom necessity is the mother of invention" was never bet. ter exemplified than yesterday when the truck from the Munson Trading post pulled into town. Owing to the freezing weather of the past few days the rutty roads became hard as iron and very lumpy. To save the tires on the truck from becoming badly worn and probably punctured the driver of the machine resorted to the expediency of wrapping them with gunny sacks. tying the sacks on with baling wire. The added cover ing lasted for the entire trip and the wear on the tire was reduced just that much.

THAWED DUMPS ON ESTER
 ARE FREEZING AGA,r!

A late arrival from Ester creek reports that the winter dumps thu. have been taken out on that creek and on St. Patrick and Happy creeks were thawed out with points over week ago ready to take advantage of the water when 1t ran. Owing to the unlookedfor cold weather all of the creeks in that vicinity have frightened up and to all appearances it might as we'll be October. The dumps have commenced to tighten up again and unless there Is a sud. den change in the weather condition the thawing will have to be donu over again.

 The local Northern Commercial ficials have not received any infor' nation regarding the purchase oi the above vessel. according to q statement made by Johnny Kelly las night.

 The Oxmo will probably be used on the ocean end. connecting with the Steamer Tana, under Captain Langley who will haul the supplies up the river to the N. c. station at Tacotna.
