The hearing before thg gov

garding the cause of the mis
hap to the steamer Dirigo near
Seattle has been finished. The ,
testimony regarding the condi- i
tion of Gapt; Flynn was con- j
flicting. Some of the crew i
testified that Flynn was “soak
ed to the' handles,” some that
he* was pretty well “soused,”
while a few claimed that he
was sober as a judge and had
never taken a drink.
The report comes from Fair
banks that all arrangements
for installing a power plant at
Totalanika have been made,
and it will be but a short time
until the engineers arrive to
superintend the construction.
During the last few months
John H. Hughes and John L.
Timmins have been in London
making final financial arrange
ments. A* largo crew of work
men will be put to work at
once, and according to present
plans; the construction work
will be well under way before
the middle of the summer. The
plant will be located near the
Nenana coal fields and will
■furnish power and light to the
Tanana valley as well as along
the route, to be used in the
operation of the mines and
dredges.

Construction of a $250,000
concentrating plant, with a
daily capacity of 500 tons, is
now under way at the mine of
the Beatson Copper Co., on La

carpenters, who will help build
the plant, recently arrived on
the steamer Northwestern, of
the Alaska Steamship com
pany. One hundred and fifty
thousand feet of lumber al
ready has been carried to *the
I mine for the new plant by the
| freighters of the Alaska Steam
ship company and another 159
000 feel is on the way from
Seattle. The mine has been
shipping ore south for more
than ten years, but with the
completion of the plant will
ship concentrates only. Some
difficulty was found in keep

FROM TUESDAYS DAILY
A rather small but fairly rep
resentative gathering met at
the Red Men’s Hall last night
in response to a call by Mayor
Harris for the purpose of per
fecting the preliminary ar
rangements for a Fourth of
July celebration here in Ketch
ikan this year. The band play
ed several selections on the
street before the meeting and
also in the hall. Mayor Harris
called for nominations for a
chairman. On motion he was
unanimously elected for the of- J
fice and Richard Bushcll, Jr.,
was elected secretary. Upon
takingthe chair, Mayor Harris
spoke on the need of a celebra
tion showing that it was a duty
of the present generation to
that of the future to prepetuate
I he deeds of the past and to
keep alive in the minds of all
the history of the founding of
the republic. The secretary
spoke along Hie same lues and
called the attention of the aud
ience to the fact that Prince
Rupert was making great prep
arations to send their base ball
team here for the celebration
and would come two or three
hundred strong with them.
The motion was then made
and carried that we celebrate
two days, Friday and Saturday,
July 3 and 4, the committee on
general arrangements to have
complete charge of the cele
bration and the following elect
ed in the order named: Richard
Bnshell, Jr., D. W. Hunt, Glen
Bartlett, John Koel and F. G.
Purinton, and John Kole* was
made permanent chairman of
(he finance committee, after
which the meeting adjourned.
Today the execuative com
mittee met and started the ball
rolling for the biggels and best
celebration in the history of the
town. Special attention will
be given to sports and a good
prize will be hung up for the
winner in a series of base ball
games in which it is expected
at least three teams will par
ticipate. Then some good athl
etic stunts of running, jumping
and the like will be provided
lor and of course the young
sters both boys and girls will
be luken care of. The com
mittee hopes to secure the
presence here of some good
fast motor boats for the aquatic
events and at least two teams
of the fire department will con
test for the supremacy. It is
expected that a band will be
brought from Prince Rupert to
assist the local organization in
dispensing music during the
celebration and in fact nothing
will be left undone, to insure a
good time both for the town’s
people and the hundreds of
visitors we are confident of
having here.
The committee consists of
good live wires and they will
see to it that the affair is
thoroughly advertised through
out the district.
