THE spirit of service which exists in the
operation of The Alaska Railroad, has
made our patrons our friends, and the safe
guarding and transportation of their ship
ments to stations on our line, to their entire
satisfaction is our ambition.
During the month of May the season of
river navigation will augment our rail serv
ice, and freight and passenger travel will
receive the benefit of our experience.
Trains will connect with all sailings on
the Tanana and Yukon Rivers.
Timetables, descriptive literature, etc.,

crew of the U. S. S. Surveyor, held
under the auspices of the Seward

ply be described perhaps by stating it
was a wonderful success and upon the
authority of President Urbach’s word,
it was said to be the best of its kind
to have been presented locally in
many, many years. The floor was
packed, continually, with happy
throng of dancers and the women were
very beautiful.Particular note was
made of the handsome appearing of
the Army and Navy men in the splen
did uniforms.
Until the midnight hour the orches
tra from the S. S. Alaska furnished
the music being relieved at that time
by the local musicians.
