CHIEF IN CHARGE OF R. R. C CONSTRUCTION VISITS SEWARD.

Wm. Gerig, assistant chief engineer of the A. E. C. was in Seward yester- day on business. Mir. Gerig has receiv- ed advice from Colonel Mears who is now in Washington that the appropri- ation asked by the Commission for this year will be granted by Congress. The sum of S4,OOO,OOO has been ap- proved. Mir. Gerig has recently return ed from three days trip in the Gnu litna country where he has been in- specting the work done on the big steel bridge over the Susitna River. He says that the steel for tine big structure is all in place and resting on the huge concrete piers.
 During the past two and one half months more progress has been made on railroad construction than during the entire summer. Only S4 miles re- main to be completed between steel. The track has been laid to Mile 275 and more than two hundred men are working at grading. The contract has been let already for more than half of the remaining mileage and work this ctming spring will commence earlier than during the past season. The weather has been ideal up until the recent cold snap. The interior mail has been on time with one exception which occurred last Sunday when the driver froze his face and was delayed twelve hours. All the mail consists of first ard second class matter. The running tine of the train between Seward and Dead Horse is identical with that of Sthe "Oregonian" (the second train of tie Southern Pacific between Portland and San Francisco, over the same dis tance traveled.) Mir. Gerig is very op- tomistic over the coming seasons out look and feels confident that much sat- isiactory work will be accomplished in 8 speedy manner. Fairbanks and Seward will undoubtedly be joined by this time next year. Slowly but surely We are getting a railroad.

ing sentiment. Ana too, the Ne" Year was wrapped and re-wrapped in >ari-colored serpentine until he admit ted Anchorage as his home for twelve lacnths and the members of the Elks lodge the guardian of that part of h,s characteristics which dispelled "Faith, Hope and Charity" with Char ity as the outstanding virtue.
 There War No Core ~
 Immediately following the transfer from the old to the new and while waiting for the cheers to subside and the dust to settle the first consignment left the dance hall for the lodge rooms to enjoy coffee, sandwiches, ice cream and cake. Due to the smallness of the lodge rooms and the largeness of the crowd it was necessary to divide the guests into corps. The refreshments were delightful; in fact they were so appetizing that there were no twelve 5as':et-fulls left over; not even a core. This speaks we'll both for the cuisine and the reply to the invitations and the lodge members are to be con- .ratulated upon the happy results.
 Artistic Decorations.
 Compliments were many on the ar .:st;c decorations of both the hall and .odge room. The decorations were har- molious, with purple, the lodges eol- ors, ever in evidence. Everything be- spoke the workof artists and decora- DTS who necessarily spent many hours producing the beautiful effect. The dancers danced and the merrymalle-. aade merry until way long in the mor.ling and even then were loath to leave the joyful scene where they literally danced the old year ont and the new year in" as guests of the members of the local Elks lodge and particularly of the following commit; tees, who were especially instrumental in the Iavowed success of the Third Annual Elks' Ball:

mast have embodied their gratitude
Tor the blessings Of the yenr in verse.
At times the burden of their song has
| incorporated the time-honOred custom
BY which one day of the year Is set |
| apart for the giving Of thanks.
Perhaps Thanksgiving recalls to
them mothers Ingenuity and skill IN
making pumpkin pies, and so IN
quantity humorous way the poet pays
tribute to the pumpkin and the prod
uct thereof.
Again the spirit Of these November
i poems embodIes a Thanksgiving JOY
and freedom from sorrow; for health
and happiness; for things spiritual and
4 physical.
i At any rate, ever since Thanksgiy-
Ing has been proclaimed a national
holiday the poet has found inspiration
for his art and by means Of his verses
has awakened sympathetic Chord 10
the breasts Of many men and women.
Although nearly ali Of the poems Of
James Whitcomb Riley, contain an es-
sence Of this spirit Of gratitude with
the existing order Of things, some Of
these are specifically devoted to the
day itself. Among these the poem
entitled "Thanksgiving" is one Of the
best.
