THE SOCIAL. WHIRL IN ALASKA.
The Duke of Skookum led the waltz
In graceful swing with Atlin Nan, % ,.
While Skagway Sue Whirled down the line
With One-Ear-Jake from Ketchikan; |
But Patient Hank and Thirsty Kate
^ With Scorn gazed on a couple free,
For Atlin Nan refused to talk
To Dago Pete or Sweet Marie. *
Then Five-Ace Jim to Frisco Maud
Remarked across the genial fo&m
That Hobo Bill and Ping Pong Nell
Had robbed a aluice box up at Nome;
Yet e’en with these, they Joked and drank,
And sang and danced with spirits free.
But all agreed they could not mix
With Dago Pete and Sweet Marie.

Then 8am-The-Swede and Ashcroft LJK
Said Rose Lepine (from Point Levis)
Was acting as no lady would.
(She'd swapped her clothes with Red McGee.)
Bat while they scrapped among themselves,
Gn this they could all agree,
They would not talk, nor dance, nor drink
| With Dago Pete or Sweet Marie.

’Mid London fog, or Arctic chill, 1 .
In Dive or Mansion, forth or south, ;>
The social lead we follow still.
And we refuse to talk or drink
To nod or dance, tq smile qr meet
Those whom onr social law frowns down ~
Like Sweet Marie and Dago Pete. j

Iboif-hg forward with a smile ev
en though he cannot toe up and
about. A game will i*1*0 be
played 'between the married wo
men and the single girls.
