FIREMEN PURSUE ! BLAzES, ONE WILD
 GOOSE LAST NIGHT

More confusion than fire was found last night by Juneau's Volun- teer Fire Department in answering a pair of alarms rung in last eve ming
 The first, 5-3 call as 7:45 o'clock sent the firemen scurrying to the Small Boat Harbor-where they could find no fire. The fire quest at the Boat Harbor proving fruitless, a second truck was dispatched to the City Float where the source of the alarm was found. An overloaded galley stove in small boat was soon disposed of with only the slightest damage. The 5-3 ring was the re- suit of an error made in phoning in the alarm.
 At 9:15 o'clock, Al call took the fire truck to the west end of the Indian Village, where hot ashes dumped between two houses result ed in slight scorching to an ex- terior wall of the home of Jim Ro- nan. The smouldering blaze was soon eXtinguished and the firemen called it quits on busy evening.

 Mrs. Williams came to Alaska with MT. Williams in 1925 and since then they have made their home in this community. They are now planning to leave for the States and while their many friends throughout the Territory, and especially in Juneau, regret to see them leave, they also wish them many and pleasant years of leisure in the home they plan to make in the South.
 MT. and Mrs. Williams expect to leave Juneau next week aboard the steamer Princess Norah. They arc taking their car with them and will motor most anywhere" from Van couver, B.
