affair was held at A. B. hall that
his Excellency and Lord Lascelle
could meet the members of the Arc
tic Brotherhood as they had bwn
made members of this order while
in Dawson.
As time for preparation was limited
the reception was very informal. The
distinguished guests were met at the
train by a delegation of Arctic Bro
thers. escorted to the hall and Intro
duced by Arctic Chief J. M. Keller
to Mrs. L. S. Keller who presented
them to the ladles who had as

byl Gray, Miss Broderlck and Lord I

thers in the mystic order of the north

the guests of the ladies of A. B. whU
the lodge was In session and were giv
en beautiful boQuets of Skagway
sweet peas tied with purple and white
ribbon ? the Camp colors ? and pinned
with a neat little souvenir pin. The
boquets were presented by two little
girls ? Marlon Wursbacher and Bessie
Blanchard. In spite of the limited
time for preparing for the guests, A.
B. hall wore quite a f?6tal appearance,
many Skagway flowers were massed
about the rooms and handsome bear
skin rugs were on the floor of the
reception hall. The flowers were
sent to the Gov't official boat, the
Quadra.
Skagway will always have pleasant
thoughts of Canada's Governor-Gen
eral and his charming daughter Lady
Sibyl.
A SNAKE STORY.
Tha Yarn That W?i Spun by a Trav
eler In Auitralia.
An Australian traveler says that he
wan one dty walking In the thick
acrub, collating specimens, when he
came upon a large light brown snnke.
a specie* of python, colled upon the
ground.
Ho was by far the finest one he had
ever seen at large. He was probably
ten or twelve feet long and as thick
aa a man's leg at the knee.
He looked savage enough to devour n
man, and at first the collector felt half
Inclined to run away.
He recovered himself, however, and
was on the point of shooting the ser
pent with a charge of dust shot In
order to carry home his skin when It
occurred to him that he would be
worth five times as much If he were
taken alive.
"I had," he says, "a leather strap
with a buckle In my game bag, and
with this I determined to noose the
snake.
"I started toward him, but when I
came near he partly uncoiled, opened
his tnouth very wide, thereby disclos
ing his sharp teeth, and, hissing spite
fully, struck at me. I dodged behind
a small tree and. leaning ont as fat
aa I dared, tried several times to
nooae him.
"After I had teased him for some
time he suddenly started . off at full
speed. I caught my gun and by dint
of hard running through the thick
scrub managed to head him off. He
colled, and again I tried the noose, but
he put his head under his colls In a
very sulky manner. I reached out from
my shelter behind a tree and caught
him by the tall, but he pulled away 1
with great force and glided off again. I
"This time he took refuge under a
fallen tree and before I could head ;
him off was gilding down the hole of
some wild animal.
"I reached the spot Just as the last |
two or three feet of his body were
disappearing, and, seizing his tall with
both bands, I hung on desperately
With my feet braced against a limb
of the tree 1 pulled till the tall cracked r
and snapped as If It would break asnn- :
der. Sometimes he pulled me to with- j
In a few Inches of the hole, and then
I would brace myself against the limb
and drag him halfway out.
"At last I grew so tired that I had
to let go my hold, and with many re- j
greta I saw the last few Inches of the jl
tall disappear beneath the earth."
