The celebration of the anniver­

carried out by the local G. A. R.
Post according to announce­
ment. At the appointed hour in
the afternoon Wednesday, the
members o f the post, with the
Ladies’ Relief Corps, formed in
line at their hall and marched to
Duncan’s Hall, where the exer­
cises were held, N. E. Britt, Com­
mander, presiding. A chorus,
under the leadership ,of Miss Jes­
sie Britt, rendered tw o patriotic
selections with good effect, and
Rev. Ezra Hayes followed with
a well prepared address on the
life and services o f Lincoln, the
emancipator. The speaker was
given the closest attention dur­
ing the delivery o f the address
and many favorable comments
were made on the splendid effort.
Since the tw o story b r i c k
building on the southwest cor­
ner o f First and Meridian streets
has been vacated, Henry Ehret,
the owner, has begun to make
extensive repairs a n d changes
in the structure which will make
of the ground floor a splendid
room of good proportions for
merchandising purposes. He ex­
pects to take out the east wall
and build it new, out on a line
with the street, which will add
some ten feet to the width of the
building, a n d will also make
changes in the front and put in
a new floor. T h e ventilation
under the building has never been
good and as a consequence the
timbers decay and let the floor
settle. This defect will be reme­
died by providing for a good cir­
culation of air under the floor.
The removal o f the old floor is
already under way.

enjoyable occasion. Both M r.

ing talks on the life and customs
of the Indians. They displayed
numerous articles of hand work
done by the natives, such as
mats, bead work, baskets, je w ­
elry, -etc. Piffrren^ ones were
called on to speak who had at
some time visited the station at
Kake, and each spoke o f the
marvelous change in the tribe
which only a few years ago was
considered the most savage in
southeastern Alaska into ( h e

Mrs. Myers, governess at the
college dormitory, gave a thrill­
ing account of their experiences,
covering three years, witfi the
Eskimos. At their destination
they found themselves and bag­
