The Beuefit 'iasketball dance,
given by the SKagway Girls Basket
ball teams at the W. P. A. club
Saturday night,was certainly one of
the best attended and most enjoy
able social events that has taken
place In Skagway during the win
ter of 1913-'14.
There were comparatively few
spectators in tb balcony, but the
capacity of the gymnasium was al
most taxed to its extent to accom
modate those who took an active
part in the festivities.
The decoration committee, Miss
es Loralue Sundeen, Elsie Dillon,
Amelia Nelson, Fanny Baker and
Nellie Flynn were certainly deserv
ing of the words of praise that
were bestowed upon them by ev
eryone who was there, for in their
work there was nothing but beauty
of conception and artistic merit in
carrying out the .designs.
Immediately to the left after en
tering the gymnasium was a nice
ly fitted up refreshment booth, pre
sided over in a most gracious man
ner by two charming young ladies,
Miss Gertrude Liddicoal and Miss
Lela Malen, who served out deliciou
ice cold lemonade and claret punch
fit for the gods, to all those who
cared to indulge.
Across the north end of the
hall, between the refreshment booth,
and the c-ast side of tli6 gymnasium,
a cozy earner had been fitted up,
which was a very popular resort for
the ladl-* during the intermission
between dances.
The decorations on walls and ceil
ings were very tasty and appropriate
consisting of penanr.s, bunting, var
iegated paper, etc., and across the
lower end of the hall, above the
orchestra seats, an immense Ameri
can flag, the property of the Elks'
club of Skagway.
At twelve o'clock refreshments
were served, consisting of coffee,
sandwiches of different kinds and
cake of so many varieties and of
such delicious quality and flavor
that it was hard, speaking from
personal experience, to determine
when one had a sufficiency.
During the evening, Joe Tioz
yma, of the Pullen house, amateur
photographer of local renown, made
flash light pictures of the dancers
while on the floor and later an
other of the basketball girls group
ed in the cozy corner of the hall.
Selmer's orchestra rendered ex
cellent music during the evening,
while four extra numbers on the
program were, by request, played
by the Skagway brass band, the
members of which also were deserv
ing of much credit for their per
formance.
The floor committee, Misses Edith
Liddicoat, Verna Mulvihill, Delia
Rapuzzi and Fanny Baker were as
siduous in looking after the welfare
of their ruests and gave ©special at
tention to strangers, several of
whom were present.
To Mis. W. J. Mulvihill and Mr.
Ed. Barry, committee of arrange
ments, especial praise was due, as
they had been untiring in their ef
forts to make the affair a success.

CARRYING UNITED STATES
MAIL OX ICE YACHT
If there is a point south of the
Alaskan boundary where the Unit
ed States mall carriers have to con
tend with adverse weather condi
tions paralleling those of the Arctic
regions, U. is at Put-In Bay, that
famous island in Lake Erie where
Perry won his victorv a century ago.
Separated frofn the Ohio mainland
by 12 miles of open water, the
coming of winter brings hardships
to the men whose dally task It is
to traverse the distance laden with
the mails. Few have b«en the days
in the past 14 years, however, when
the weather was so Inclement that
the trip could no be made. A stout
sailboat is the usual means of
communication, but. when the ice
c'oses and boating is impossible,
the ice boat is called Into play,
and the distance 's traversed in
lecord time. An automobile has
been driven over the ice in 17 min
utes, from Port Clinton on the
maln'ar.d to Put-in-Bay, but the
flying boat mace the trip in 14
minutese. This vcvel method of
carrying tue malls is fully desor'b

Charley Bedingfield, the popular
mixologist in the Pantheon saloon,
who has been a resident of Skag
way for the past l j years, will
leave on the Jefferson tomorrow
for a visit to the principal cities of
the United States. Charley will
have to hold his "wad" pretty tight
when he gets into Seattle, howev
er, or he may not get any further
than that city, and furthermore,
may have to be shipped back home
C. O. D„ a circumstance which hap
pened here once in the early days
to a well known character, named
San Jose Bill, and Bill was a pretty
wise old guinea, too. Better try
Ketchikan or Prince Rupert first,
Charley, and if you get by them you
can venture further afield.
