“YE CHEBCHAKO DANCE.”
I The Cheech&ko dance given at the
Eagle hall last Saturday night was
a hugh success as far as the dancers
were concerned. The music furnish
ed by the Bunting Orchestra was of
the finest and every one we£t away
feeling that they had had a real
enjoyable evening, everyone had a
chance to dance as most of the dan
ces were tags after 12 o'clock, this
making it possible for those who
were not so well acquainted to
dance. Altho the crowd was not
the largest that have attended such
functions here in Nome they seemed t
to have just as much if not more
enjoyment than if the floor was
crowded to capacity.
“Ye Orchestra.”
The Orchestra deserves special !
credit for the entertainment furnish
ed. The Eagle Hall Committee aw- J
ter repeated attempts to get music j
for the Cheechako dance had to 1
postpone the dance and at last was
almost ready to give up the dance
entirely when the services of Mrs.
Bunting and her orchestra was se
cured and the dance was assured.
The Bunting Orchestra consists of
Mrs. Bunting who plays the piano
and Bennie Wallers the Jazz trap
drummer, and Alwin Bahlke who is
right at home with his violin.
Mrs. Bunting proved to the Nome
public that she is accustomed to
playing In orchestra with other in
struments, and we hope to see her
orchestra playing at the next dance.
The dance was enlivened to a large
extent by the appearance of a sour
dough in fur parka, the sourdough
in question had evidently got out of
bed on the wrong side for he had
the parka on backwards, when ask
ed why he was wearing the Parka in
this manner he replied.” The
Cheechakos do not know the differ
ence and it is none of the other
sourdough’s business how I wear my
