CONEY ISLAND
HAS A IT
(By Alaska News Bureau.)
NKW YORK. Aug. 7? The Coney
Island railroad, which is part of the
Tnited Traction system is in trouble.
AH the men are out on a strike for
higher wages. The strike for more
money developed into rioting yester
day and several people were hurt.
NOTED DIVINE
IN SKAGWAT
Skagway was honored for a few
hours yesterday by the presence of a
very noted divine in the person of the
Rev. Thos. W. Gladstone. The Rev.
Gladstone is a distant relative of the
great Commoner of Kugland, the late
Wm. E. Gladstone, and is rector of the
Church of Chir Lord, under Bishop
Cridge in Victoria.
Bishop Cridge is 93 years old and
was the first clergyma in British
Columbia, having come out in the
early days of the Hudson Bay regime.
He still has in his possession the j
Hudson Bay bible with the official
stamp of Fort Victoria on its covers.
Another interesting fact that links
the Reverend Gladstone to Skagway
is the knowledge that he officiated
at the funerals of both Wm. Moore
and Mrs. Moore, and visited them
frequently during their final illnesses.
Mr. Gladston's visit in Skagway was
very fleeting, for he was a round
trip passenger on the Dolphin.

STILL IRKING
____
Despite other attractions, the Driv
er services yesterday wore well at
tended. The sinking of the choir and
<-ongregation was earnest and spirited
! VII present listened with rapt atten
tion to the rendition of the special
musical numbers, "The Hand That
was Wounded for me," by Mr. and
Mrs. Driver, "The Holy City." by
Mrs. H. D. Kirtnse and "Sweet Hour
of Prayer," by Mrs. Montague and !
Will Ward.
The three reasons for being a Chris
tian. were presented by Evangelist i
Driver in a very forceful way and
should cause an arrest of thought on
the part of all who heard hiiu. and
those who were not within the sound
of his voice are the losers thereby.
The meetings will continue this
week; the opportunity to listen to
the plain practical truths and enjoy
the music will soon be gone.
The subject for tonight is "Three
Strikes and Out." Miss BUnbfth
Hopper will sing "Face to Fare." Ther
will be a large chorus choir and a
duett by Mr. and Mrs. Driver. Ser
vice begins promptly at 8 o'clock.
Every body is welcome.

LIKES ODES
Of SWAY
J. \V. Shirley, who owns a very nic<
quartz property on the Big Horn of I
Atlin District, which has been pro
nounced a true fissure vein by Gavin !
the geologist, wan in Skagwav Sa< |
vrday having come over enront* to j
Prince Rupert. Mr. Shirley is mak j
itig arrangements to install a small j
stamp mill on his property. Speakln \
of the Allln prospects to an Alaskan j
represetative, Mr. Shirley stated that i
Partridge and McLenan are doing
considerable work on the Ben Ma j
t'hree mine. They are working 2S j
men r.nd have more than one hundrel
tons of ore broken down already.
Partridge and McLennan are now
negotiating for a shipping contract j
for the purpose of geting their off
over to the railroad. This mine of
theirs is a wonderful ledge and I* de
^ eloped by nature to the extent that
<t is shown to a dnpth of S00 feet j
through the slipping off o< half of j
the mountain, which has exposed the!
ledge matter. The ore is very rich |
and of a concentrating nature, which
makes it economical to work
Mr. Shirley looked over the ore j
samples In the Alaskan office and ex- j
pressed the opinion that there must j
be several very good mines to be de
veloped in this section. The test mill I
also Interested him very much and hei
said that the people of Atlin would j
patronize it quite oxtennirely as soon j
as It Is in running order.
