 staged by the Aurora Bor' calls class of the Presbyterian Sunday school has fair chance of winning the first prize, which is only saying that the affair was successful. J. V. Padden and Miss Edna Morris won the prizes for being the best sustained characters. MT. Padden surely looked like the real thing in the tramp line. Miss Morris acted the part of the lady sheriff, who, with the aid of a com petent judge made that poverty strick- en crowd disgorge $20.50 in fines. The wretches were fined for everything from having a filled tooth to gambling. It may be hard to believe but Miss Mildred Graham and MT. William An derson received prizes for being dress ed more poorly than the rest even. There was nothing poor about the eats, however. Those present were Mrs. Chester Mellison, Mrs. H. Mail lard, Mrs. A. G. Shriver, Mrs. J. Beld- ing, Mrs. J. J. Fraisure, Miss Loura Bacon, Miss Mildred Graham, Miss Thelma MacConnell, Miss Harriett Anderson, Miss Marie Rosswog, Miss M. Kolbenson, Miss Ethel Graham, Miss Margaret Foster, Miss H. John son, Miss Ellen Fraisure, Miss Gene vieve Rosswog, Miss Edna Morris, Miss Artie Burns, Miss Edna Thawley, Miss Frances Fraisure, MT.

 as # # MT. Charles Rogers, our genial fel- low-townsman, wishes to inform that part of the Cordova public inclined to go fishing that there isn't any use for them to fish at the source of Eyak river; for, as he naively puts it, he and his party last Sunday fisleh the river clean. When pressed to tell how many fish the river contained before 1t was raided. MT. Rogers placed the estimate literally at about twenty-five. Those who aided in this work of an initiation were Miss Ellen Fraisure, Miss Charlotte Bacon and MT. Wilcox.
