President Taft. who is in this city,

worrying over reciprocity.
answersThe
! CALL Of WILD
That the "call of the wild" may be
on a man who has never been in the
"wild." is conclusively shown by the
test which H. W. Brodie. general pas
senger agent of the C. P. R.. recent
ly underwent in Vancouver.
Mr. Brodie was preparing for the ;
trip to Skagwav and while packing
his grip, within forty minutes of
sailing time of the Princess, ho 1
noticed that a garage, which was lo
cated almost directly under his win
dow, was on fire and that it was
beyond the possibility of control.
Mr. Brodie was given his choice of
i two things, the trip to Alaska, or
the chance to stay at home and fight
fire ? Mr. Brodie chose the former,
and immediately left for the boat.
The following aerogram was receiv
ed by Mr. Brodie that evening on
the boat, and he has now gone back
to investigate:
"Furniture not burned."

IDE EAGLE
Out of deference to our Canadian
cousdns who claim July 1st as Do
minion Pay, the people of Skagwav
with characteristic good nature have
decided to hold their Independence
Pay ;-elebratlon on July 1 and 2. mak
ing two long summer days of un
vtonfined joy for all who are eo for
tunate as to be within the city. These
dates are also chosen in view of the
fact that Skagway's nmr neighbors
on the Canal have chosen other
<}ates. Douglas will celebrate on the
4th. and Haines on the 5th. Thus It
will be convenient for the people of
those communities to be in Skagwav
on the dates chosen and in turn
Skagwav's citizens will have a chance
to add to the pleasure of the other
celebrations by being present.
Seven hundred and fifty dollars
have already been subscribed by the
business men and catizens for the
purpose of making the coming cele
bration fully as enjoyable as any of
recent years.
A live committee has been appoint
ed on arrangements and this com
mittee is untiring in its efforts to
make the double holiday a grand suc
cess* which without doubt it will be.
A great atheletic meet has been ar
ranged consisting of the most popular
sports, and attractive prizes and pur
ses have been hung up to stimulate
efforts and toward efficiency. Base
ball of course heads the list with
one hundred dollars for first prize
and fifty dollars for second. There
are prizes for the fire laddies and
prizes for all sorts of races and
athletic stunts too numerous to men
tion. i ?
The Juveniles are also to be in the
prize winning game, prizes having
l>een hung for the best efforts of the
little folks. And speak softly, you
gun men there are prizes for you al
so. The trap shooting tourney prom
