Last night the Elks team went
down to defeat at the liands of the
White Pass Athletics to the tune
Of 23 to 17 in a fast and furious
game of basket ball.
From the toss-up, it was a hard
fought game, and although the
Elks lost out, they may take a
iittle consolation out of the fact
that, the Athletics knew that they
were in a game, and if they were
♦o win they would have to play for
all that was in them.
Huth made four field baskets
and five free throws for the Ath
letics, while Hargraves and Smith
each made two field baskets and
Liddicoat one field basket.
Cole made four field baskets for
the Elks, and Rousseau and Ra
.uuzzi each made one field basket,
while Gillespie made five free
throws.
The house wag packed and every
seat in the balcony and the bleach
ers was occupied. The lady fans
had as much fun out of the game
as did the players, and the usual
good natured rivalry as to
which side could yell the loudest
and shake their fists the hardest
and make the biggest noise showed
that both teams had their admirers

ST. PATRICK'S

i
Have you set asde Siaturday
night for the St. Patrick's dance
at tlic Elks.
March the 17th, the day on which!
all lovers of Auld Erin don a bit

saint of Ireland, has been set
aside by the Elks house committee
for a reusing old fashioned dance,
and those in attendance are ex
pected to bring along their macush
las and shake their feet to the mer
ry tunes of Irish jigs and reels. Of
course if your early training has
been neglected and you cannot jig,
and dr not know what a reel is,
why >hen you will be permitted to
one stei, or fox trot, waltz or two
stop. Just remember that the Elks

During the past several days
workmen have been busily engaged
in remodelling the Kennedy store

be one oo£ the aandsomest stores
in Skagway.
Heretofore the street display
windows have been enclosed by
wooden oack partitions, whch has
cut otf a view of the interior of
the store from the street, and al
ready tnese partitions have been re
moved and passers-by now have a
vie'" of the entire store thorough
the big plate glass windows. This
in istel? has been a very marked
improvement, and has had the effeUJ
of bringing out the size and inter
ior arrangement of the store.
It is Mr. Kennedy's intention to
put down, new inlaid linoleum on
the flocT, and in addition to other
improvements, the interior Will be
entirely 'redecorated.
.Changes in the present floor

on having a merchant who intends
to run his place of business in a

VAULT WVEB
The Yukon Gold company has
comiileted the worlc of moving the
heaviest single object ever conveyed
any distance in the North, says the
Dawson News. It was the compan's
large solid concrete safety deposit
vaulf, estimated to weigh thirty-two
and one-half tons.
The vault is 14 Vi feet long,
10 fee* wide and 9 V4 feet high,
■and has 14-inch solid concrete walls
a heavy door which swings on steel,
while inside is an extra large steel
safe.
The entire load was jacked up
from the position where it was
built, adjoining the old offices a*
King and Second, and was placed on
the runners of one of the big
sleighs used customarily by the
company in hauling logs and wood.
This part of the work was done
early In the winter, and the load
was allowed to remain on the sleigh
most of the winter, waiting to take
advantage of the coldest weather
freezing the ice of the Klondike
'river and Bonanza creek to the
maximum thickness.
Twelve horses wgre used to haul
the load. On starting the load, the
horse° strained every ounce of
muscle, but once the load was un
der war the animals went at full
trot. The Icq supported the big
weight without tho least trouble.
In making the descent from the lev
el of the city streets to the sur
face of the Klondike ice, a drop
of about twenty feet, a steel wind
lass wag used. The load broke
the windlass, and the big vault,
sl9igh and all ran away down the
bill, but landed right side up with
care.
The vault was placed in position
ad joining the new Yukon Gold of
fices af Guggieville.
