The fifth Avenue hotel rather saved
the day for Sf. Patrick. The Alaskan
had no sooner breathed its complaint
that the dear old saint was about to be
allowed to record another anniversary
without so much a* a broken bottle of
Dublin Stout in his honor, when the
telephone bells beg.?n to ring out in
vitations to join in a celebration to be
held at the hotel. And by tbe same
magic there gathered a little later so
many choice spit its nf the town aa to
crowd the dancing floor. And so the
day was redeemer', and St Patrick rest
ed peacefully in a grave in which other
wise he would, and should, have been
certain to have turned over. The em
erald decorations of the ball and diniug
log room must have been particularly
gratifying to him.

The postponed Skookum dauce will
be held this evening at the Fifth Av
euue. The club membership is being
reinforced by the return of several of
its members who have been seeking

The Arctic Brotherhood decided at
its last meeting to throw its doors open
once before the season closes, that the
public at large may have the oppor
tunity to feel the pleasure of gliding
over its famous cedar dancing surface,
under the brilliant lights, and enjoy
the general atmosphere of hospitality.
Tne ball will be given Friday evening
next.
? ?????
Tbe Eagles gave their bi-monthly
dance last night which was of course a
moat enjoyable affair. The upper floor
of the Aerie- which, being the upper
floor, is alone properly so called? has a
dancing floor which all good ? gles
will malutaiu at any point to which any
disputaot may lead ? is the best in the
city, having juit enough of that
"swing" which according to the latest
fashions in dancing floors, is said to be
necessary to the enjoyment of the
dance in its perfection. The committee
in charge left no'hing to chance.
OUR 610 TO
GIVE A BALL
And now Wagner's Skagway band
has gotten to that point that all bands
reach soon or late? where they give a
bdneUt ball. That our band sobuld
have arrived there within three weeks
from the time of the arrival of the list
brass horn is another manifestation of
the Skagway way. That'* pretty good,
isn't it?? the Skagway w?y. Don't
forget that? it will not be copyright
ed, that it may be brought into general
use. The ball is to be a bent fit affair
to enable the sixteen pieces to wear
uniforms. The band promises to play
as many as four pieces after a manner
that need not orlag the blush of shame
to the fair cheek of anybody in town.
It is to be given in Elks' ball, at a date
that ha* yet to be fixed. The officers
of the band now, are Fred Ehrlicbs,
president; Walter McBride, vice presi
dent; Elmer Wheeler, secretary and
treasurer; and John Minkove, librarian.

SERVICE IS TO
WRITE II PLAY
Robert W. Service, the Whiteborae
young bank clerk, who in author of
"Songs of the Sourdough," now ran
ting io its 'steenth edition, has been
engaged to write a play. As told in
the Toronto Star, this ia how it came
about:
"Recently, while staying at the King
Edward hotel, Mr. Ernest Shipman, the
well known theatrical manager, was
taken ill, and when the newt* reached
his wife, Roselle Knot, in New York,
abe hastened to his bedsidn to nurse
bim. A friend dropped in one day and
left a copy of ''Songs of a Sourdough"
with the theatrical man
"Mr. Shipman picked it up and hand
ed it to his wife to read to him. She
began with the first poem, 'The Law of
the Yukon,' and before she read more
than a few lines she sat up utralght
and began to take notice. So did Mr.
Shipman.
"When Roselle Knott had read a few
of the poems the managerial mind could
wait no longer. Already the plan had
been formed. He sent a messsge to the
publishers, ordering half a dozen copies
of the book, and asking for the poet's
address.
"As soon hh the answer came Mr.
Shipman wired the Yukon pout at once
asking him to write a play.
" 'Tf he can write a play in the san e
spirit that, he wrote those poems, he'll
make himself famous? and me, too,'
declared the theatrical man."
"Heavy Realization."
Not He.
"Old your sou tiiitl the curriculum
Hfflei'M when he went to college?"
"N?>t a bit, not a bit. He took It the
time he tried In two jumps."?
