Sfeagwiy People Sriitiiug
Proxi'S to Lawson
Mapy of those Skagwayans who have
life insurance policies in the New York
Life Insurance Con pany, the Mutual
Life and other of the old line mutual
companies are sending their proxies to
Thomas \V. Lawson, of IJoston. Par
ticularly is that so with the holders of
New York Li f ? policies of whom there
are many in Skagway. The exposures
in the recent investiga'ions in New
York have induced the people to take
this action.
Lawson's promise to secure a reduc
tion of 40 per cent, in the annual prem
iums on the policies is one of the things
which have induced many to revoke the
proxies heretofore held and voted by
John A M Call, Richard A. McCurdy,
and other of the hi# presidents and to
authorize the Boston exposer of pirati
cal teeth i!s of hi>;h financiers to
act in that capacity for them. An
other is the "square deal" spirit that is
found in all emergencies to be close to
the heart of the average man.
A. F. Wildt, P. E. Kern and others
have blank proxies which they are fur
nish ing free to those who will send
them to the Boston financier.
MORE MAIL
Moy meut to Iimase Ser
vice t> Haines
A movement is on foot to induce the >
postortie depart mem to increase the
mail service between Skagway and
Haines.makirg it daily.the year around
instead of tri-weekly between October
31 and May 1st of the following year.
The depart. nent has written W. A.
?Graves, inspector in the railway mail
service a'. Skagway. regarding the
matter and he has begun an investiga
tion into the need for such a service.
Many of the business men of Skagway
and Haines and the officers a: Fort
William H. Seward have experienced
much incor.vinenee by the le.<seningof
the service of '.he staunch little Cnion.
One of the things which has caused
most annoyance is the delay in filling/
orders by Skagway merchants. People
of Haines complain that after wri ing ;
for goods now it takes two or three
days to get a reply instead of being j
able to get what is wanted the following
day.
Haioes readers of thj Daily Alaskan
are complainiog because of their in- 1
ab lity to get the paper daily.
Mr. Graves will raakea tripto Haioes
in a few days to interview the people j
there in relation to the matter.

Mrs. Charles Wetmore.of 2518 William

had attacks of kidney complaints at
various times for several years, indicated
by backache, dlfficu ty with the kidney
secretions, pain and soreness across
the kidneys and weariness rind languor.
I cou'd not get proper or necessary
sleep at night. Mv strength svemed

in other ways when suffering from those
spels my health wns in a bad candition.

knowing of the merits of Doan's Kid

stopped the backaoh' aimost immediate

Carpenter'* Strokes to Drive a \ail
now many hammer strokes does ?
carpenter use in driving n nail?
Perhaps not oue carpenter In a thou
sand or oue Inyuinn In ten times thai
number can tell or ever think of it
The truth of the matter is this: Th?
carpeuter takes seven strokes in driv
ing a nail Into ordinary wood and
twelve regular strokes and two finish
ing taps In driving nails into hard
wood.
These figures are furnished by a man
who works ct night and sleeps? or tries
to sleep-by day and whose bedroom
window opens out upon a fiat building
in course of erection. He figured the
average number of hammer strokes fot
ulne mornings and. having learned
them, moved to a hotel until the new
building Is completed.
He discovered that the carpenter
drives an av?rage of three nails a mln
ute In soft wood and a fraction under
three In hard wood. At this rate he
would drive 1.440 nails a day in soft
wood If he keeps up the gait steadily
and 1.282 in hard wood. He would give
lO.OSO hammer strokes in soft wood
and 20,160 In hard wood.? Chicago Trib
