SHORT STORIES
ABOUT ALASKA
OCCURRENCES
Chris Olson and Mrs. Mary Thomas
were married at Juneau recently. The
groom is a cannery worker of Hoonah.
John D. Nelson, chief clerk of toe
traffic department of the Alaska
Steamship Company, is making a tour
of Southeastern Alaska on one of the
company's boats. This is Mr. Nel
son’s first trip to the territory.
Captain A. J. Anderson of Ketchi
kan has sold the gas boat Hilde to
Ole and Hans Hansen, who will use
it as a halibut boat. Captain Ander
son left for the States and will re
turn next spring with a larger boat.
Juneau may have a daily mail serv
ice from the States if the proposed air
service is a success. It is announced
that the seaplanes can make from Se
attle to Juneau easily in a day, which
would give the capital city close con
nection with Sound ports.
The funeral of Steve Ragan, who
was killed at Ketchikan recently by
Paddy Shannalian, was held in the
Presbyterian church at Haines. Pall
bearers were J. J. Kennedy, E. A. Ad
ams. W. B; Stout, B. A. Barnet, Sam
Nixon, Tom Vogel, Raymond C.
Coombs and John Fairfield.
Millions of caribou are roaming the
hills and vales within a range of fifty
to sixty miles west of Dawson, and
the advance guard is within five miles
of the cfty. At Ogilvie, forty-five
miles from Dawson, the telegraph op
erator reports that the caribou are
ranging the foothills in large num
bers and the residents have a good
supply hung up for the winter.
Ketchikan is numbering her houses
and business places and assuming
metropolitan airs. An ordinance re
cently introduced says that it shall
be unlawful for any person, firm or
corporation to maintain any building
or structure in the city of Ketchikan
without having over the entrance
thereto in a conspicuous place the
number of said building or structure.
T. Doyle of Dawson was recently
arraigned for selling whisky without
a license. The complaint was made
by the police, who captured a marked
bottle recently. The accused pleaded
guilty and was fined $100 and costs,
and $200 worth of liquor was de
stroyed. The balance found on the
premises, amounting in value to about
$12,000, was taken over by the gov
ernment.
Ira King, a well-known citizen of
Ketchikan, was taken suddenly ill last
Sunday morning, and becoming un
conscious, passed away at 12:20 that
night. Mr. King formerly was man
ager of the Steadman hotel and clerk
on the school board for a number of
years, and was serving in that ca
pacity at the time of his death. He
came to Alaska with his family in
1904. He leaves a wife and daughter
and a brother, Fremont King of the
Tongas Trading Company.
Petitions are being circulated by
the natives of Southeastern Alaska
requesting that the laws be amended
so that none but full citizens of the
United States be permitted to fish in
the waters of Southeastern Alaska.
The Indians, it is said, are alarmed at
the dangerous element that are domi
nating the fishing grounds, and de
clare that many persons declare their
intentions of becoming citizens merely
for the privilege of fishing, without
any intention of taking out full papers.
The steamship Norwood arrived in
Ketchikan recently and loaded with
supplies for the Alaska Sulphur Com
pany, at Lost Harbor, Akun island,
on the west side of Unimak pass.
President Johnston and Treasurer
Landswick of the Chicago offices of
the company were on board, and
stated that they would start shipping
sulphur next spring. They had a
complete wireless apparatus on board,
200 tons of coal, 100 tons of cement,
250,000 brick, 300,000 feet of lumber,
300 tons of machinery, 100 tons of
groceries, and a boiler 42 feet long
and 8 feet in diameter. A mile of
tramway has been built this year.
There 'were twenty men on board, who
are experienced sulphur miners.

WOMAN’S STATEMENT
WILL HELP CORDOVA
“I hated cooking, because whatever
I ate gave mo sour stomach and a
bloated feeling. I drank hot water
and olive oil by the gallon. Nothing
helped until I tried simple buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Ad
ler-i-ka.” Because it flushes the EN
TIRE bowel tract completely Adler-i
ka relieves ANY CASE sour stomach,
gas or constipation and prevents ap
pendicitis. Th? INSTANT action is
surprising. Northern Drug Company
