Those who wore abroad on the
| streets Tuesday are probably aware
I that tlie famous Skagway wind w;is
I living up to its reputation. Just as
[ a conservative guess, it was blowing
I about 10 miles an hour. Occasionally
| a o0 mile gust would come along.
; A tourist iu town ? name unknown--*
who wore one of those nifty flat edg
ed straw hats just left the Pacific'
Coast ticket office when a gust siezed
I h' head piece and sent it rolling
, down the street. The hat struck
squarely on its edge and preserved a
! true and steady course near the cen- !
ter of the street.
In hot haste the tourist, who wasl
lather obese,* sot out in pursuit. At \
Third avenue he had gained a fexv |
feet, but the wind strengthened again
and at Fourtli avenue the hat still
had a good load.
Charley Cartwright, who was piis- i
sing Fifth avenue, made a grab for
the hat, but with seemingly human i
intelligence, it evaded him. At Sixth
avenue it lodged against the side
walk and a small boy hopeful of re
ward, bore it back to the perspiring
owner who was just passing Fifth
avenue.

I. ? Cackle! Cackle!
Cackle!
When Ambassador Choate went
to England lie made a reputation as
a wit with one joke.
He sat at the breakfast table be
side a sprightly young lady.
In England they serve soft boiled
eggs wrapped in a napkin. The
young lady fumbled, and the egg
fell to the floor.
"Oh, Mr. Choate," she cried in dis
may, "what shall I do? I have
dropped my egg!"
"CACKLE, my dear, CACKLE!"
It's a mighty good thing to do a
little CACKLING once in awhile.
CACKLE about your business, about
the town you are living in. Let all
the world know what a good thing
we have here, end our town will
grow.
Whenever you have a chance to
CACKLE about your town and boom
it don't hentatc. Remember the fa
ble of the old hen that observed
that every time she CACKLED some
one came and took the egg away.
She thought it would be much wiser
for her to hide her nest and keep
quiet about it, and she did till a
Sunday school picnic was organized.
Her owner was asked to contribute,
md he said :
'"Well, that old hen is not laying
any more, and I guess she'd do first
rate for a fricassee."

A jolly party of Skagway young pe
pie made the trip up the hill, Weunes
Cay evening and after taking the
Kastle by storm, indulged in all kinds
of pranks. One of the features of the
evening was the masquerading of sev
I cral of the men folks, when they got
I into Mr. Svabotsky's property room,
and togged themselves out in the "old
Sourdough attire which is a feature
c* the Kastle's curio display. While

! ies popped corn and made fine coffee,
and the entire party without a dis
senting ballot, voted Kastle Kern the
"Only place to have a real old fashion
tc jolly time."
Stop at the Dominion liotci when i
