FANS FIND FISHER FAULTLESS
In a letter to a friend in Stag way,
A. s. Fisher, who for many years
was principal of the public schools in
Whkehorse, but is now district man
ager for Saskatchewan with head
quarters at Kegina, of the Mutual Lif
Insurance of New York, has this to
say regarding base ball. It will be
remembered that Mr. Msher played
for many years on the Whitehorse
team and was one of the best players
on the team.
"1 see by the Star that the base
ball fever has begun to settle in the
Northern towns . I have been wonder
ing if those old boys were going to
come back home to play on the 24th
of if you axe going to slick to home
talent. As yet I have not had a
game but 1 have seen several of the
league teams playing. We have the
Twilight League, comprising Regina,
Winnipeg, Brandon, Calgary, L*?th
bridge and Kdmonton. They have
some good players and play a good
article of ball. Thursday afternoon
the reghiar league "umpu" was in
disposed and you can imagine my
surprise when I was called from the
stand and asked to handle the Indi
cator. I did not have the remotest
idea of it until the announcement was
made in front of the stand. As I
was starting out to the field some
one in the grand stand hollered out.
Remember what happened to Soapy
Smith in Skagway." Of course the
joke was lost oa the crowd but it
seemed pretty good to me and right
then and there I de>cided tx> write you
a letter. That's what they call Asso
ciation of Ideas. I did well, as not a
kick was registered against my de
cisions .In fact I am on the reserve
list in case anything happens to the
regular umpires. I regret to say that
I am getting too stoat to play the
game any more .1 am thinking ser
iously of taking to golf as a last re
sort. When one reaches that stage
it is all off with him
"I suppose that the awakening of
VVhitehorse will affect Skagway also.
1 have been booming the Totem Pole
Trip and 1 am sure that several from
this town will take the trip this sum
mer. We have had a good crop and
as a result everybody has a little
money to spend. This refers to the
farmers^ .
"I may have the pleasure in the
course of the next year of re- visiting
the old places, the company wishing
to organize the whole of Canada and
the Yukon as pare of the Kfcrgo agen
cy. I would certainly be delighted to
make the trip and see the old North
land once more. Would you show
me the sights of Skagway as it might
have advanced so much that I would
not know the town after a few years
absence."
Mr. Fisher's friends will be glad
to know that he is doing very well
in his new business and there is no
doubt but that he would do very well
in his old home in the Northland.
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Nash of Port
land, Ore., were round trippers on the
Princess May.
Mrs. George M. Grahame arrived in
Skagway oa the May last evening ami
left for Whitehorse this morning for
an extended visit . Mrs .Grahame
was married in Skagway four years
ago and. is now living in Regina. Her
husband is a retired siergeant of the
R. N\ W. M. Police adid is known
all through the Yukon, but is now
holding a government position in Al
berta.
