SKINNED
Well, the ball players got 'to
Wrangell after a jostling around in
rough water on the Mitkoff, last
Saturday. In fact some of the
players were seasick and none of
’em felt overly spifly when game
was called. The local contigent lost
out to Wrangell 17 to 20. But at
that they say the game wa8 a good
one and worth seeing. The Mitkoif
had smoother water to come home
in.

WHITEY OLSEN
TOO BLOWY
The storm of last Saturday was
cutting up such high jinks that the
trip of the band boys to Wrangell
was called off. When all were
ready to go darkness was settling
down and the gale was whooping it
up, so the Chas. T. didn’t pull away
from the dock.
ARRIVED AND DEPARTED
The M. S. Princeton, Rev. David
Waggoner, arrived in from Wran
gell Saturday afternoon and moor
ed at the Citizen’s dock. On Mon
day forenoon departed for Kake.
While here Sunday he conducted
afternoon services in the Native
Presbyterian Church. Tentative ar
rangements are being made for «
permanent church organization and
place of worship.
THE DENALI
About midday, Saturday, when
a young tornado from the southeast
was shaking things up lively, the
big freighter Denali, of the Alaska
Steamship Company, slowly steam
ed in and tied up. She no sooner
got her lines out, however, than
she took them in. The wind was
so strong that there was danger ot
the ship pulling our fair-weather
docks up by the roots, so she turn
ed her nose down the Narrows and
anchored in Scow Bay until the
storm broke. She returned and be
gan discharging cargo at one o’clock
Sunday morning. The Denali brot
mail and 385 tons of merchandise
and coal. Mo3t of the latter was
put off at the Citizen’s dock for
Chris Tveten.
TO RE READY BY SPRING
The big power plant of the Fair
banks Exploration Company, to
generate power current for the gold
dredges of that organization, will be
assembled as soon as the railroad
cars deliver the equipment. There
will be two steam driven generators
of 3500 h. p. each and one smaller
one of 500 h.p.
NEW WIM) GAUGE FOR JUNEAU
This is alright. If there is a lo
cality that is hard on wind gauges
it is Juneau. Light weight Troy,
himself, would put the average wind
gauge out of commission in a short
time. Then there are so many
others that are wearing on those,
er—anemomemters that it isn’t any
wonder R. C. Mize, meteorologist in
charge of the Weather Bureau,
Juneau station, must have a new
one.
A WEDDING
Mr. Julius W. Mason and Miss j
Wilma Corbin were married in
Wrangell last "Wednesday by Rev
David Waggoner of Juneau. The
wedding took place at the home of
Mrs. Mason, the groom’s mother,
and was a private affair. The newly
weds will honeymoon to Seattle and
a visit will he made to the bride a
parents at Port Angeles. Mr. Ma-j

:he McCormack Docks, Wrangell,
