YOUNG FOLKS WE'D;
 SURPRISE FRIENDS

A quiet home wedding, which was intended as surprise to the many friends of the contracting parties, took place at the Presbyterian manse on Saturday evening, when Miss Lucille Diven, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Robert Joseph Diven, and Frank Murphy, foreman, electric service department, Alaskan En- gineering commission, were united in the holy bonds of wedlock. The ceremony was performed by the brides father, in the presence of Miss Jessie Johnston, Mrs Diven, and MT. Joe LaFerrie
 Miss Johnston had arranged a young ladies party for Saturday, evening, presumably for the pur- pose of engaging the attention of the intimates of the bride-to-be, and while the guests were gathering at the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Taylor, Miss Johnston slipped qui- etly over to the manse, and re turned shortly afterward with the bride, none of the young ladies at that time being aware of what had taken place.
 But secrets are hard to keep in Nenana and the evening was still young when the news began circu lating and congratulations began pouring in upon the young couple, both of whom have wide circle of friends in Nenana.
 The newlyweds have taken the Coutts residence, on B street.

Mir. Dunlap is with the Schwabacher es- tablishment, Mir. Milliken with the Ridgway Tea company, and Mir. Meherin is selling everything, al most, from candy to clothing.
 Some difficulty was encountered on the voyage from Dawson to Ne mana, with the result that it was necessary to lay the Pollywog up for repairs upon arrival here.

cars were smashed to bits, the
wreckage piling up almost to the

heat was so intense that the flanges
on the engine wheels were trans
formed into molten metal.
When the train came laundering
along spectators thought it was a
passenger train. as it appeared to be
illuminated. The light came from
the burning journals, red-hot wheels
and the flaming sparks which shot
from the rails.
