KING AND WINGE
LEAVES FIG
The auxiliary schooner King and
Winge, after onloading and packing
84 boxes of Halibut at the ocean dock,
left yesterday afternoon for Simpson
bay for herring to use for bait. The
King and Winge has been fishing off
St. Elias, and, although the weather
has been very stormy, succeeded in
making a good catch, though the fish
ran rather small. After securing bait
she will return to the banks.
The King and Winge for several
years past lias been engaged in trad
ing in the Arctic and along the Siber
ian coast Last year she was at
Nome when the attempt was made to
rescue the surviors of the Karluk, of
the Stefansson expedition, from Hers
ehel island, and assisted in the work.
She arrived at the island about the
same time as the Revenue cutter
Bear, and took off part of the survi
vors, later transferring them to the
Bear.

IOY FITTINGLY
CELEBRATED
Cordova Aerie, No. 1826, Fraternal
Order of Eagles, commemorated the
seventeenth anniversary of that order
Saturday in a mose fitting manner. The
“local birds” have a reputation of be
ing royal entertainers and In this in
stance they fairly outdid themselves.
The program offered was a double
header, consisting of a theatre party
and a dance, both nffairs being high
ly successful and thoroughly enjoyed
by a large crowd that nttended those
social functions.
Shortly nfter 8 o’clock the curtain
was rung up at the Empress theatre
and a rather unique performance
given. It consisted of a contralto solo
by Mrs. J. F. R. Appleby, who was in
excellent voice and rendered In most
pleasing manner a love song, and was
compelled to respond to an encore.
Thos. Von Spronsen, who is always a
favorite with local audiences, scored
his usual hit with a tenor solo and
for an encore sang another verse
of the first selection. There was a
general "sneeze” when H. W. Kirby |
stepped before the footlights, hut he !
soon captivated his auditors by the
excellent redittion of a baritone solo, i
and proved himself a master of this !
brass instrument. When Kenneth
Holden “blew in” the colored folks
had to sit up and take notice of the
new asquistion to their race. His I
plantation buck and wing dancing was
very clever and he was called back I
time and again. His last turn was a
solo on the mouth-organ, which was
executed in good style. There were
also three good moving pictures.
Immediately after the entertainment
all proceeded to Eagle hall to dance.
The large lodge room had been artis
tically decorated and called forth
many expressions of praise for the
committee in charge of the affair,
who certainly left nothing undone that
would add to the beauty of the scene.
In fact the decorations and electrical
effects were the most elaborate ever
attempted in Cordova. An Innovation
was an Eagle's nest mounted In one
corner of the room and which was a
feature lti itself. Then, again the
music was good, the floor in fine con
dition and all who attended the danco
enjoyed themselvcts immensely and
have the satisfaction of knowing that
they also contributed their mite to
the now home that Cordova Aerie
shortly expects to build.
A large number of tickets were
sold and the Aerie netted a nice lit
tle sum to be added to the building
fund.

UNDESIREADLES
IN ALASKA
Discussing "Causes" in the second
of his series of sermons on "What s
the Matter With Cordova?" at the
Kmprees theatre yesterday afternoon,
Rev. Jas. McBride stated that the
principal cause is the fact that "Stew
hums" and their associates hold the
banlance of power through the med
ium of the ballot box. This condition.!
he said, has existed all along the ad !
vancing frontier until the element
mentioned is making its last light in
Alaska because there is no other real
frontier left in this country. The
speaker expressed the hope that the
time was not far distant when the
term: "He's an Alaskan" would be
one of honor rather than of reproach.
Three classes of men have come to
Alaska and all are in some measure
responsible for the dulled moral con
sciousness so apparent in this and
other communities of the territory, he
said. These are: First, those full of
fire and steel anil energy who came
to better the conditions of themselves
and the dear ones left behind; those
who mny be termed manly men, yet
who at times let the animal spirit get
the best of them. Second, those hav
i *tig I he wanderlust—mere adventur
ers, following the call of the wild.
1 hlrd, those whose room is more to be
desired than their presence and who
are here because they can get no
fit rt her.
"I believe the first class predomi
nates, but the other two are being
augmented day by day," said the
speaker. "AH the evils which accom
pany the frontier are here, and ‘stew
hums,' numerous because driven out
of former frontiers, welld great In
fluence In moulding public opinion.
Present condition of public opinion in
Cordova is because some of us are as
we are.”
Referring to his own experiences,
the speaker said that anyone who
takes pnrt in the war for a better and
more permanent town must in a sense
make a martyr of himself, “because
the missionaries have failed 1n their
duties." One of the reasons why
churches are not popular on the fron
tier, he said, is because the mission
aries and ministers have been afraid j
of offending by telling the truth; yet'
the fault is not so much with the j
missionaries and preachers as with
tho congregations and members of
the communities, "because the good!
element don't get out and take more,
active part in political and public af-1
fairs.”
Next Sunday Rev. McBride will
speak on the subject of "The Reme
dy," the third of the series.
