OLOT|MERS WILL ENTERTAIN SOON:
 LADIES GUESTS

The entertainment committee of Nenana igloo, No. IT, Pioneers of Alaska, was instructed last evening. to make preparations to entertain the ladies of Nenana at the next meeting of the igloo, on the night of May 8. That probably will be the last ladies' night arranged by the oldtimers until after the summer season, and an unusually good time may be expected in consequence.
 There was large attendance of members on hand last night. and one new name was added to the membership roll, the new member being George A. Burrell.
 The committee which arranged the Allen Crane benefit submitted a financial statement, copy of which has already appeared in The News. The lodge also heard letter read from Allen Crane, describing the manner in which he was frozen. The oldtimer was still patient at St. Stephens hospital at Fort Yu- kon when the letter was written. The letter follows:
 "I left Nenana the latter part of December, headed for my old pros pecting ground on Jim river, a trib- utary of the South fork of the Koyukuk I came by way of Brooks, from there to Victoria creek, where | hit the Beaver City trail. At that place I met Jim Woods, who was camped there hunting moose. He proposed that I wait there for him, while he went to Brooks for some personal effects. He said he had been over the Beaver trail and that it was so poorly marked that he did not think I would be able to follow it, and by our going together I would be a help to him by break ing trail for his dogs.
 "When Woods returned he had d man named Patterson with him. When we loaded up in the morning to hit the trail, I mentioned that

ly made out to get a half starved Indian dog team to bring me to this place, which cost me S6O, and by buying a dog between Beaver and here, I managed to get through with all frozen parts in sloughing condition.
 After about ten days treatment to restore circulation in my feet, to save all possible, I underwent am- putation of my feet, the right one through the instep and the left through the ball of the foot. I cannot place my weight on them yet, but have fully recovered from other frostbites. -..:... ...:
 'I have had most praiseworthy care and treatment at this hospital. Mir. George Horton notified me of your kind remittance and am most heartily grateful to you, each and all. It is the first help of the kind I have ever had, and as 1 only had about $1OO left when I reached Beaver City, that amount was badly I n@ Yukon. And it will require quite little amount until I am again in a self-supporting condition. MT Horton showed me your let ter in which you stated that it might be well for me to go to the Pioneer home for an indefinite time It might we well, although if 1 am able to get about on what I have left of my feet by the time naviga- ton opens, 1 would much rather have some position where I could be oeli-suppolllHS, suCH dS Iollilei " held with the commission.

 enough to feed three men and the dogs over an unbroken trail to Beaver City. Woods said that it was only 45 miles and that We would make it in three days. As matter of fact, it is nearer 100 miles.
 "On the third morning we were out of grub for both dogs and men. estimated that we had made about 30 miles and I proposed that I go on ahead to Beaver and get a pack of grub and return with it to meet them. This we agreed upon. Woods said that when I came to a cabin it you'd be IS miles from there to Beaver. After mushing about ten miles l came to a cabin, and about 15 miles farther on I came to an other old cabin. It was getting dark and very cold. My mitten had got full of snow coming thru the brush and my hand was numb. 1 attempted to build fire to warm myself, but, boys, I had lost my matches. And I had put a full box in my pocket that morning when I left camp.
 "So, thinking the best thing to do would be to make Beaver as soon as possible, I mushed nearly all night, and came to another old trapper's cabin beside fairly large stream. which proved to be Beaver river. It is IS miles from that one to Beaver City. l could not trace the trail any farther-lost in the Yukon flats, tired, hungry, all in. There was kind of a black fog. Could not see the moon or stars and knew not what direction to take. Wandered around the bal ance of the night to keep from freezing, and the following day I ran onto an Indian hunting trail. I followed it for quite distance each way, to no avail, and finally traced my tracks back to where first lost the trail. Darkness came again, and in my weak and ex hausted condition, and without food, 1 fought the elements all night to keep from freezing, until daylight came again. I was getting so weak I could not good 100 yards without falling down, and was about to crawl up on the bank and say good bye to sweet life, when 1 heard the voices of Woods and Patterson, fol- lowing on my trail. They had left dogs and sleigh behind. called to them, and when they came up to me l told them that I had lost my matches and asked them to help me. My one hand, nose, lips and ears were frozen.
 l Patterson made a fire and got some brush for me to lie on. Woods proceeded in the direction he knew he had been once before. While by the campfire I discovered my feet were frozen. I had not re- alized it before.
 i "It took Woods two days to find his way to Beaver and get back with an Indian dog team. I hired the Indian to take me to Beaver City, and was there five days with Joe Shaw and Charles Schultz, who did everything they could for me. Woods and Patterson proceeded on their way to the Koyukuk. l final -~~~>--->--~-- ----->~-
