Ilefore the full round of the hall was
made with tlu* paper, the expression be
came general, “O, we’ll alldooiir part,”
and there was n«» effort made to secure
further signatures. Many who were not
at the meeting have since volunteered
subscriptions in money and work, and
the necessary improvements are assured,
as well as ample funds for purchasing
paraphernalia.
Work on the grounds was commenced
and a great deal accomplished Monday.
Many turned out who had made no
pledges, and they all worked like
‘ boosters” on the Tanana association
claims. One of the noted workers was
Master Sullivan Mayo, a little tad who
rolled a wheelbarrow and refused to
knock off until his grandpa A1 and his
uncles Charley and Lee were ready to
go home.
A practice game of ball was played
on the grounds Sunday afternoon, in
which the Uadigati* drubbed the Selia
h« rs at the rate of JO to 1J. The Seattle
No. d had arrived on her tip trip, and a
large number of her passengers and
crew witnessed the game. Captain
Newcomb himself, when he saw the
Schaher I tineh was so badly outclassed,
went to their nssi-tanee and play, d a
strong game, but the crew was so green
there was no show to mak* the landing.

at Fairbanks on the charge of criminal -
libel, Saturday, May 18. Ilis attorneys:
at once moved for a dismissal of theease.

double irons and chained to the cabin of
the steamer. The unnecessary brutalitv
displayed bv the deputy marshal is said
to have raised a storm of indignation,
even at Fairbanks. Convicted felons

such harshness on the way to the peni

his oflicial position to gratify a petty
spite.
