ROAD EXTENSION
 SOUTH OF TOWN
 NOW COMPLETED

The siding near the end of steel
 and the spur track to the coal mine
 having now been completed, and
 there being no finished grade. far
 ther ahead, south of Nenana, to pre- init of tracklaying operations to be carried out to advantage for the present, the steel gang will be en-
 ployed in placing the full number
 Of ties under the tracks and also to stabilize and fix up the road
 for distance of approximately six
 teen miles, toward Nenana from the end of steel.
 Owing to the necessity for rush. ing the steel to the coal mine, and
 due also possibly to a shortage of
 experienced men, the extension was accomplished with only about half
 of the number of ties used ordin- arily being placed in position for
 the distance mentioned. The steel gang will now remedy this and with
 in short time the section of the road which was hastily construct ed will be made ready for the heavi- esr kind Of traffic.
 When this work has been accom-, plished, the steel gang will be brought to Nenana and will prob ably be sent across the river to lay track toward Fairbanks. They will be stationed at camp 4l5 for some time. and as usual, will move on from time 10 time as the steel ad- vances.
 The steel laid toward Lignite has now reached mile 366, which was the point decided upon as the ex- treme southern limit of the railroad. for the time being at least; and with the completion of the siding near the end of steel and the spur track to the Burns mine, the extension of the road toward Anchorage has now ceased. ..
 There is no completed grade much beyond the end of steel, and the further extension of the road will depend altogether on the appropria- ton made for this purpose when Congress meets again.
 From the present end of the com pleted grade, which is in the neigh borhood of the Lignite coal fields. to Carlo creek, the road which has been definitely located, runs thru rocky country This is specially so in the Nenana Canyon, where plenty of rock work and some tun- nelling will be necessary 10 put the road through.
 Frost conditions will not interfere with rock work and thus grading work over large and difficult DOT ion of the road can be done just IS easily in the dead of winter as n the summer time.
 From Carlo creek to the Broad Pass summit, distance of approxi- nately 25 miles, the roadbed has : lot been actually located; only a preliminary survey was run some ime ago by Engineer Bacon. Lo- ,ating Engineer Secrest and his party are expected to come over rom the coast division early this bring to locate this stretch of road, md it is expected that active grad r ng operations will then be taken f n hand from the present end of I teel clear to Broad Pass, which is 0 to be the southern limit t f the Fairbanks division.

Throughout his life, Alexandra
Dumas had all the needless ire
sponsibility of q reckless boy. He
did not indulge inLreveries about the
past or dreams Of the future. He
lived spectacularly in the present
His heedlessness was most en-
phasized at his Jpalatial home. Monte
Cristo. where his love for splendor
and his prodisality plunged him into
debt. Most of his visitors. who came
ostensibly for an hour and remained
for days. were penniless men ana
women, who were glad enough to
find place where they could live
luxuriously for nothing.
Many of these thriftless folk made
Monte Cristo their home. Dumas had
not the heart to turn them away; he
even invented tasks SO they would
not feel unhappy about staying. One
homeless vagabond who had a sense
of shame was appeased by being told
to note down each day what the
Thermometer registered. "It Is most
important for me TO be well in
formed on this point" Dumas as
sured him.
