DOUGLAS, April 24.?The Douglas
Carnival Asociatiou held a meeting
yesterday afternoon, but did little be
yond routine work. It has been prac
tically decided that the carnival will
begin Thursday, May 15th, and remain
in progress until the following Wed
nesday. That would give both shifts
at the Treadwell mine an opportunity
to eujoy the festivities.
Jack McCormick and wife are in
from the Jualin mine where they have
spent the winter. They will remain
1 in town for two weeks.
Dave liousel hus beautified his place
of business with a new electric-lighted

The Alaska Catholic Club hold a

DOUGLAS DOG POSSESSES
POWERS OF REASON
DOUGLAS. April 24.?A little inci
dent that occurred here this morning
? seems to have settled the controversy
^ as to whether or not dogs possess
j. reason. Hob Coughlin went from his
L place of business up to Leiver's to
[ get his dog, who was there. After
p coming back, he thought of having
C forgotten to get some cigarettes. He
r gave a note to the dog and told him to
j* take it back to Leiver's. Leiver gave
. the cigarettes to Rover, and the lat
ter scampered off to his master with
H the prize. The dog has not been
- trained.

! WATER CARNIVAL IS
A GREAT SUCCESS
i* DOUGLAS. April 24. ? Last night
the auditorium at the Treadwell Club,
where the much advertised water car
nival took place, was packed to the
very doors a half hour before the
sports were scheduled to gebin.
The first event was the relay race
between boys of Douglas and Tread
well. Douglas was represented by D.
Oliver, M. Ninnis, J. Davidson and E.
Palbom, and Treadwell by P. Carpen- <
ter. J. McCormick, R. McCormick and
A. Richards. Treadwell won.
Douglas and Treadwell then met in
the tug of war. The Douglas team con
sisted of Wilson, Dahl, Patten, Ben
erd and Chambers. The Treadwell
men were Reynolds, Manners, Metz
ner, Alsdoft and Meach. Douglas won.
Douglas won the men's relay race
in which each town was represented
by six men.
There were only two men entered in
' the blindfold race: Patten, of Juneau;
( Gunn, of Douglas. Patten won. This
was one of the most amuBing events
of the evening.
The polo match was won by Doug
las by a score of 2 to 0. The fololw
ing were the team: Douglas?Jones,
Gunn, Chambers, Dahl, Patten, Wil
son and Burns; Treadwell?Nelson,
Hayes, Manners, Durham, Ninnis, (
Meach and Alsdolf.
The fancy diving contest was so (
even that Jones, Sevens, Chesney,
Robinson. Snow and Burns to to draw (
straws for the prizes.
Ferris and Bernerd tied for the flnn
horse contest. The other contestants ]
were Kertis and Wilson.
The last event was a fancy dive by
Jack Chesney, posing as a "Juneau ,

CHARTER OPEN.
For a short time only the charter of
Douglas-Treadwell Lodge, No. 765,
Loyal Order of Moose, is open and the ,
iniation will be only $5, covering all t
cost of joining. Since the purchase .
by the Supreme Lodge cf over 1,000
acres, comprising several farms ad- .
jacent to Aurora, 111., for the Inter
national Home and University, the
membership of the 1,500 Moose lodges
has increased by leaps and bounds
because so many were quick to see '
the advantages of belonging to an 1
Order that insures their crippled and t
aged members, their widows and or- t
phans against want, cures the con- a
sumptive and gives the children of t
Moose an education unequaled by any 1
university, absolutely free, besides 1
paying a high sick benefit to its mem- t
bers in good standing. The fee will i
be raised to $10 in a short time with- c
out notice. See any Moose, or Sec- ?
retary Humfrey at once. C

PERRY BOAT
AMY ARRIVES;
Captain Waldo States is proudly j
strutting around the ferry float today
having just completed the nine hun
dred-mile journey from Seattle to Ju
neau with the "Amy" the new Gas
tineau channel ferry boat.
The boat is certainly a beauty in ap- ]
pearance and Captain States says she ,
.3 a beauty to handle. Coming through ]
Dixon's entrance a storm was encoun
tered but the Amy tripped playfully ; ^
through without being in the least
disturbed. The craft is built not only j
for speed but for seaworthiness and i
shows it through every line and tim- t
ber. The sunken cabin is comfortably1'
upholstered In leather. Toilets and j
other adjuncts add materially to the j
equipment of the new boat over the -
old vessels. Two life boats and a
life raft are carried on the cagin deck 1
and life preservers are plentiful. She i(
has a cruising radius of 1,200 miles
and carries 1,200 gallons of oil. Nine
knots can be made without crowding f
the engines. I c
The Amy made the run from Se
attle in less than five days, Includ
ing layovers. This demonstrates her 1
ability to go some. The seating ca
pacity of the craft Is 95, but many! ?
more more can be carried without I a
risk. It is expected to put the new \ -
boat on the ferry run just as soon as
the electric light system has been In
stalled. (
