Last Rites Held
For Old Timer
Last rites for the late Capt. W !
l am E. Geiger were held last
week in airbanks.
The Rev. R. Roliand Arm
strong of the Presbyterian church
conducted the services.
Internment was in Birch Hill
i cemetery. ;
Widely Known In North
The captain was widely known
throughout the Northland and
his funeral was attended by
many Yukon and Alaska old tim
ers now living in Fairbanks.
The captain was in the first
stampede to the Klondike. After
a brief while in the Dawson
district, he went to Nome. There
he erected a bridge across Snake !
River. He realized a fortune from .
tolls. He was a member of
Nome’s first City Council.
Master of Quickstep
Subsequently, he was master '
of the steamboat Quickstep on '
its voyage to the Koyukuk.
On coming to Interior Alaska,
he put up a sawmill at MaeGrath
in the early days of that camp.
Of late years, the Captain’s
health was impaired, and he
lived at the Circle Hot Springs.
He had gone to Fairbanks earlier
in the week for medical treat
ment when death overtook him.

Alaska Speed Limit Set
At 35 Miles Per Hour
The Territorial Board of Road -
Commissioners, at a meeting ^
held in the Governor's Office )
Monday, July 6. established a ! J
maximum speed limit for the h
Territory of 35 miles an hour for ’
pleasure cars and 30 miles an \ j
hour for trucks and other freight j
carrying vehicles. •
Since President Roosevelt has !j
indicated that for the duration of i J
the war 40 miles an hour should j h
be the maximum speed for the i J
entire nation in the interest of ^
gasoline, oil and rubber conser- *
vation, it seems proper that Al-■ •
aska, with its unpaved highways,!
should set a figure of not less]
than 5 miles an hour under the j
maximum speed limit.
This regulation will both add
to the safety of life and limb on
the highways and be a useful con
tribution to the indispensable
conservation of rubber and fuel
supplies. This order takes ef
fect immediately and is for the
duration of the war unless sub
sequently modified.
