RAIN SPOILS VACATIONS;
 HOLDS UP VACATIONERS

There is an element of uncertainty about vacationing at this season of the year and in this particular part of Alaska. At any rate, that is the decision reached by Mrs. Fred'k D.
 Browne and Mrs. M. J. Cooney, who returned to town yesterday after noon from the end of steel, where they were held prisoners by the weather man for more than a week
 The two ladies left Nenana a week ago last night, expecting to re- turn to town the following Satur- day. But before they were ready to come home, the bridge at 43-mile was carried away by high water, leaving them on one side of the swift Nenana river and their homes

TUG OF WAR IS LOOMING LARGE
 AS STAR EVENT

The erection of a foundation on the waterfront for the tug of war platform which will be used in con- nection with the Fourth of July celebration, has been the means of stimulating interest in pulling and it is believed that a large number of enthusiasts will be on hand to try out their strength when the plat form is put in place.
 Manager Bellerby, of the tug of war end of the celebration, reports that the paraphernalia is about ready now and will be put in place just as soon as weather conditions will permit The platform has been completed, in twelve-foot sections, ready to place on the foundation, and it is expected that the pulling rope and other rigging will be ready today.
 The foundation has been laiG across the foot of k street, about midway between the end of that street and the waterfront, far enough away from buildings and other Instructions to permit of a large crowd gathering bout The platform will be about foot off the ground, and will be large enough and strong enough for any sort of 8 contest local pullers may care to stage.
 Two challenges have been issued thus far, one by an aggregation of businessmen who are eager to pull against a commission team, and the other by an outfit calling them selves the Moonshiners. It is con- sidered doubtful, however, if a match will be arranged until after the platform is in place and local strong men have had a chance to try out

They could have crossed the river in a small boat which is used at the Crossing as ferry, and they finally come that way, but not until sew eral days had been consumed in mastering courage for the hazardous ride. A speeder awaited the ladies on the Nenana side of the river and brought them to town.
 Almost incessant rain during the time that the ladies were at Liz mite, kept them indoors the greater part of the time and spoiled the fishing, which is usually good in that locality.

Action in United States Steel was
somewhat disappointing to it's friends,
and it moved rather slowly within a
narrow range.
A renewed demand for equipments
motors and shippings was attended
by a general hardening of the mar
