(Fairbanks News-Miner)
In the wilderness, on the banks of
the Koyukuk river, at the junction of
the South Fork, a hundred miles from
a settlement, without priest, parson or
official of the law, Edward Peterson,
of Nolan creek, and Miss Maud Ander
son, of Seattle, calling on God to wit
ness as to their holy intentions, took
the solemn vows of marriage,while two
prospectors, the only other people for
miles around, acted as witnesses. Thus
Dan Cupid overcome the difficulty im
posed by not having any minister of
the gospel or any legally constituted
officer in the Koyukuk district.
During the early part of July, B. J.
McGinnis, the commissioner at the
Koyukuk, started for the outside and
before another one had been appointed
to take his place. He was only gone
a few days when Ed Peterson began
to inquire around as to when there
would be another commissioner ap
pointed. It developed later that his
anxiety was due to the fact that a
young lady was to arrive from the
outside within a short time.
Hoping to delay the departure of
Commissioner McGinnis, Mr. Peterson
made a hurried trip to Betties, but ar
rived there too late, as the official had
already departed. He waited there for
a few days until the lady arrived, Miss
Maud Anderson.
It was certainiy a predicament; both
anxious to get married and no one to
perform the ceremony. Determined,
however, that there should be no more
delay than possible, they started for
the mission at Alatna, a couple of
hundred miles downstream, hoping to
find a minister there.
They were doomed to disappoint
ment, for when they reached the south
fork of the Koyukuk river, a distance
of about 100 miles, they met Mrs. Wil
liam Glenn, who after hearing their
story, remarked:
“Well, you might as well turn back
for there is no one at Alatna that has
any more authority to marry you than
1 have. There is no minister there
at the present time.
From Mrs. Glenn's statement an
idea struck Mr. Peterson, and he said:
“Well, we’re going to get married and
if we can’t find anyone in the country
| with more authority to marry us than
: you have, why, you are elected, that’s
all.”
After some difficulty in finding two
i men to act as witnesses, the ceremony
: was performed on July 24th, and the
| couple started back for Wiseman, ar
i riving there August 11th.
! Later, Thomas B. Wright was ap
; pointed commissioner and the couple
had him put the stamp of the law on
; their marriage.
THOMAS B. WRIGHT IS
NAMED COMMISSIONER
(Fairbanks News-Miner)
At the office of Judge Bunnell, it
i is announced that Thomas B. Wright,

| membered by many as having been
employed at the Northern Commercial
j company office here for several years
before being transferred to the Koyu
kuk district.
During the past summer be was
engaged in mining in the Koyukuk.

FAMOUS TRIANGLE PLAYS
AT THE EMPRESS SUNDAY
It would be idle and waste of words
to enter into a lengthy store outlining
| the program prepared for the Empress
theatregoers this (Saturday) night.
Suffice to say that for “Dull Care”
chasers and “The Blues” destroyers,
we certainly have the material in
quantities, and quality sufficiently va
ried and large to satisfy all.
Sunday night, we will offer you
the first of the famous Triangle plays,
a most elaborate drama entitled “The
Lamb,” in which are featured Douglas
Fairbanks and Miss Seena Owen, two
of the most celebrated screen celebri
ties now before the puhlic. After care
ful and diligent search and considera
tion Messrs. Ince, Sennett and Griffith
(the brainy men who form the Tri
angle Film corporation), selected the
two stars- mentioned to appear in “The
Lamb.” Not satisfied to leave the mu
sical interpretation suitable for the
picture to the regular theatre pianist,
these gentlemen engaged the best
composer to arrange apropriate music
for the production. This in itself is
a distinct feature. Added to the drp
ma, and on same program, we offer a
high-class comedy entitled “My Valet”
in which appears the well-known com
edian, Raymond Hitchcock. In the
two features there are eight reels of
motion pictures, certainyl a liberal of- j
fering, and, the very best pictures. It

IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
is apt to result in regret later.
