rice from a visit to the mining pro
perties. Mr. Harvey is confident that
the Windy Arm district will be devel

MISS BONNER GiVFS
GOOD ENTERTAINMENT
The entertainment given Saturday
night by Miss Grace Bonner was one of
the best that have been given at Skag
way in many months. Miss Bonner is
an impersonator and ventriloquist of a
very high order. Her impersonations
of the characters in "Esmeralda," a de
lightful little drama with a charming
love story, were excellent, and exhibit
ed versatile talents. As a ventriloquist
she is unexcelled.
Miss Bonner's audience was well
pleased and a second performance here
would probably draw a larger house.
The culinary department of the
Fifth Auenue hotel is unequaleld in the
north. It provides the very best
the market affords. It is up-to
date in all respects. tf.
YOUR HAT I

Mar B? a StylUh Oar. B?t It Mlkn
Trouble.
A mm usually buys a hat that's "in
it> le." but the modern hat (or men has
lots to answer for.
BaUlheads are growing more numer- i
ous every day. Hats make excellent
breeding places for the parasitic germs |
which sap the life from the roots of the
hair.
When your hair begins to fall out and
your scalp Is full of Dandruff it Is a
sure sign that these countless germs are
busily at work.
There Is but one way to overcome the ,
trouble and kiil the germs? that way Is
to apply Vewbro's Herpieide to the
scalp? it will kill the germs and healthy ;
hair is sure to result.

(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan)
Washington, June 4.? The end of
the fiscal year is expected to see Alas

NOMEITE OPPOSES
PAIUY POLITICS
The Seattle Post Intelligencer quotes
Dr. Cabell Whitehead of Nome as fol
lows:
"Partisan politics should have no
part in the affairs of Alaska. Any con
vention, either partisan or non-partisan,
that undertakes to represent all sec
tions of Alaska would be a mere farce,
owing to the conditions that exist in
the Northern country and the short
time left in wh.ch to prepare for such
a convention. Delegates going from
one section of Alas'ta to another to at
tend a conventiou tvould in great many
instances take up an entire season and
the men who can afford to r.pend their
time in this way are men that we do
not want to represent us
Eminent Divine Coming in July
A let.er from the Rev. Father John
A. Ferry, chaplain of the Tenth infaot
ry, to Father Bougis, of this city, says
he will come north with his regiment
in July. Father Ferry is a New
Yorker and is said to be a very able
man. He is a member of the Catholic
church.

Why suffer from this painful malady
when ona application of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm gives relief? Hundreds of
grateful people testify to the magical
power of this remedy over rheumatism.
