SHIP CREEK MEAT CO.
Anderson & Jensen, Proprs.
WE ARE VERY
GLAD TO SAY
we handle high grade meats
only. It’s not just a claim, it’s
a solid fact. Yet we do not
charge high prices. On the
contrary you’ll probably pay
less for meat here than you
have been paying heretofore.
Give us a chance to prove that
high-class meats can be sold at
low prices.

neering Commission.

ing’s train for Matanuska where they j

The management of the Two Girls
Waffle Cafe, Ollie and Viola, have
purchased two more Pyrene fire ex- j
tinguishers from Newt Pilger this;
morning and for cause. They had one
Pyrene in the cafe that in the hands
of a volunteer fireman saved them
from what might have been a disas
trous fire, not only to themselves but
to adjoining property owners. In
thawing out the water pipes this
morning by the use of a torch,.the
wall paper took fire and as the flames
rapidly spread over the side of the
wall and rose to the ceiling it looked,
ofr a moment, like a real conflagra
tion. There is always a hero in con
nection with such affairs and in this
instance he was eating waffles when
the cries of fire were heard. Instantly
snatching the small Pyrene exting
uisher from the wall he rushed to the
kitchen and with the aid of the ex
tinguisher soon had the fire under con
trol, making it only the work of a few
minutes to entirely put the fire out,
thus saving the day and possibly the
building and contents.
PIONEERS TO
Judging from the talent that will
appear at the potlatch banquet of the
Pioneers of Alaska tonight; at Moose
hall the entertainment and pleasure of
the evening is assured. For instance,
Judge Leopold David has been virtu
ally stealing the court’s time to pre
pare his masterly address.
Mrs. Martha White, who will act
in the capacity of toastmistress, will
also tell an Alaska story and her
many old time friends are urging her
to tell some of her interesting experi
ences. Judge Munley has been dubbed
the Chauncey Depew of Anchorage,
and his after-dinner speech will be a
treat. As for the vocal numbers it is
always a pleasure to hear Mrs. Clay
ton, Mrs. McClain and Mr. Sheets. In
addition there will be the impromptu
remarks by the unknown critic and Dr.
McBride's address. ; I
It will be a real old time social af
fair and plates will be laid for 150
people for tonight’s potlatch banquet.
The program starts at 8 o’clock in
Moose hall.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—At a
speech delivered at a banquet given in
his honor by leading democrats of the
nation last night, William Jennings
Bryan said, in part: “I hope to see
the democratic party come out strong
ly in favor of nation-wide prohibition;
the woman suffrage amendment to the
federal constitution and providing for
the election of the president and vice
president by the direct vote of the
people.”
3 POLICEMEN
LINCOLN, Neb., Dec. 8.—The at
tempt on the part of Secretary Whit
ten, of the Lincoln Commercial Club,
to prevent Anna M. Lowery, a former
nun, from speaking in the city audi
torium last night, resulted in a riot in
which a constable and two police of
ficers were roughly handled and
thrown out of the building by the wo
men auditors. Thirty-five hundred
women had assembled to hear the
speech, when the police officers enter
ed and sought to arrest the Lowery
woman, on a warrant charging her
with disturbing the peace and dignity
of the city. She appealed to the crowd
to protect her, with the result that the
women subjected the officers to rough
treatment, finally ejecting them from
the auditorium. The speaking then
went on, undisturbed. The Lowery
woman was scheduled to deliver an ad
dress attacking the Catholic church
and the nuns, but her charges were
wild and incoherent. She is regarded
as something of a sensationalist,
speaking for the money there is in it
for her.

OF THE OBJECT
_:
The initiatory steps toward the for-;
mation of the Scandinavian club were
taken at a well attended and enthusi
astic meeting held at Robarts hall last
night. Dr. K. O. Kyvig was elected
president and E. Wikholm secretary
treasurer. A committee consisting of
Messrs. Evans, Neklason and Nelson
was appointed to perfect the organiz
ation, to make report at the next meet
ing—Thursday night, at the same
place. The organization starts out
with a membership of sixty and the
movers in the formation of the club
feel highly encouraged over the out
look for a strong organization.
In his introductory remarks, Presi
dent Kyvig, speaking of the object in
forming the club, said:
“Having resided in the Cook Inlet
country for the past eleven years, I
am well acquainted with the resources
in this country, as well as the re
sources in the old country, where I
was reared. I consider that there are
virgin resources here in abundance,
that the Scandinavian people, as a
class, are exceptionally well fitted to
develop, because of the similarity of
climatic and other conditions. Since
the advent of the big government rail
way, I consider the time is ripe for
immigration here from the old coun
try, because of the opportunities in
many lines, especially agriculture and
fishing, as well as mining. The pur
pose of this club, in my opinion, should
be to take the initiative in inviting our
fellow-countrymen to come to this
country and take up a permanent
abode.” '

For certain optical reasons
the most effective distance to
project a picture is between 90
100 feet. In our house it is 94
feet from the machines to the
screen. The “line of vision”
from the last row of seats is
level with the bottom of the pic
ture. This is in part the rea
son that you do not suffer any
“eye strain” in our house.
