James Winn,
Juneau Pioneer,
Reaches End
j
(Juneau Empire)
James Winn, one of the first resi
dents of Juneau, and a general pio
neer of Alaska, known familiarly to
i his friends and acquaintances as
j “Slim Jim” died at the family resi
lience this morning at 5 o’clock from
ja complication of diseases.
| Mr. Winn was 76 years of age,
■ having been bom at Cornwall, Eng
land, in 1840. He came to the United
States when still a young man. He
has been an invalid for the past three
years, the last year he being com
pletely paralyzed.
In 1872, James Winn went to the
Cassiar country by way of Wrangell
and Telegraph creek. He had claims
on Dish creek. He arrived in Juneau
in 1882 and was the first white man
to ever cross the Chilkoot pass. He
was accompanied on that trip by
John McKenzie. He was also the
first white man to ever run the Five
Finger rapids and the other rapids of
the upper Yukon river.
During his residence in Juneau he
had been engaged in mining and pros
pecting. He had made his home here
continuously, with the exception of a
trip to the interior in 1895, at which
time he went straight down the Yu
kon and returned by the way of the
outside, catching a trading boat south
from the mouth of the Yukon. He
was interested in much real estate
and mining property in Juneau and
vicinity.
Mr. Winn is survived by Mrs. James
Winn, a brother in Wisconsin, and a
sister in Illinois. He was the uncle
of Milton, Grover, John and Burdette
j Winn, all of Juneau.
James Winn is the third member of
the family to die in Juneau, Isaac
Winn, a brother, having died here
about four years ago, and Col. Will
iam Winn, having died here two years
ago.
James Winn leaves a host of friends
in Juneau and all parts of Alaska. He
was of the type of pioneers of this
j country who made their homes in
: Alaska and helped to develop the
country. He was known as a man of
sterling character and was generous
to a fault.
It has frequently been said of
James Winn, that “he always had his
hand in his pocket to give something
to someone.” He was always ready
to answer a call of distress, whether
it required money or physical effort.
“He did his duty to his fellow man”
is a fitting epitaph for James Winn.
The funeral services will be held
from Odd Fellow’s hall tomorow aft
ernoon at 2 o’clock under the auspices
of the Pioneers of Alaska. John E.
Stevens will conduct the services and
the interment will be in Pioneer’s plot
of Evergreen cemetery.

At the Empress.
“Burning Daylight,” the five-part
Bosworth production from Jack Lon
don’s famous Klondike story, will
be seen at the Empress for two
nights starting tonight, August 24.
This famous play opens with a dull
evening at the Tivoli, a dance hall in
Circle City, Alaska, in mid-winter.
Everyone is bored and everything
drags, until the dramtic entrance of
Burning Daylight, when his blithe
leadership asserts itself and he be
comes the center of attraction, from
Nell, a dance hall girl who loves him,
down to Che newest cheechaco (ten
derfoot) of the crowd.
Watching Burning Daylight as the
play unfolds, we get a true picture
of life it was in those early Klon
dike days, the picturesque side of its
romance and daring; the feats of en
durance on the trail, as when Burn
ing Daylight makes the round trip
from Circle City to Dyea, some of it
on unbroken trail, in sixty days; and
the reckless bravado of its men, as
when Kerns, another sourdough, wins
one hundred and twenty-seven thous
and dollars in a card game. This is
not all, but for the continuation of
the story, go to the Empress thea
tre tonight and tomorrow night.
If you like dainty home-made can
dies come to the social at Presbyter
ian church at 8:30 p. m. Candies will
be sold from a booth.
