Fish are beginning to run better |
near Excursion inlet, according to
wrord brought to Juneau by one of the !
Pacific American Fisheries employes.
It is believed that there will be a
I

been getting but few fish all summer,
full of fish.

The Firwood, a Pacific American

; She wras South bound, having come

they were bound for Anacortes and
after a short stop there they would
again take the northern trip.

Ben Hulse of Wrangell, met with an
'extremely painful accident on his
father’s gas boat a short time ago.
He was attempting to siphon distil
’ late from a drum into the tank. It
was slow in coming, but when it
did come it came with a rush and
as the oby had his mouth over the
nozzle of the hose in the approved
manner, he was almost choked.
Some of the dstillate was coughed
into his lungs as well as going into
his stomach and he was in great
pain for a time.
One man was killed and consider
able damage done to the cannery at
Karheen on the west coast of Prince .
of Wales island when a retort ex
ploded, according to . word brought
to Ketchikan by a forest ranger boat
recently. The body of Frank Bec
ker, the man who was killed, was
on the boat and has been taken to
the undertaking parlors. Becker
was a machinist and had been work

heen to help with some machine

but two days when he was killed.

Clawack school house, then became
government teacher there. The post
•ffice at Craig has been transfered to
dr. Hibb’s store and he has been !
tppointed postmaster. Craig has be
:ome quite a fishing center the past
:ew years.
DULY FEW COLORS
—
A/omen Must Use Shades That
Are Picked for Them.
Wearers of Garments Have Little or
No Chance to Exercise Own
Taste, Says Writer. *—
Launching a new color nowadays is
attended with as much ceremony as
the launching of a battleship, Amy E.
Hogeboom writes in the New York
Herald. Not that there is such a
thing as a new color, nor that colors
are scarce. Neither has it anything to
do with the dye situation, but the
fact is that the manufacturers assem
ble each season and decide to allow
certain shades to be placed on the
market at that season. If you should
wish for any shade which they have
decided is not to he you may as well
give up in the beginning. This does
not happen as often as it might were
the majority of the well-dressed wom
en not cleverly cajoled into wanting
the shade that the manufacturers
have decided they shall want.
Allowing only a few colors out of
the bag at one time has its advan- “
tages, for when the popularity of one
lias worn off a hit there are plenty of
others left from which to select the
next one for the center of the stage.
The disadvantage is that as far as Ihe
woman herself is concerned she has
little or no opportunity to exercise
her own taste; she is almost as help
less in the matter as she would be j
had she no color sense at all. She |
may find a dressmaker willing to cut , j
her gown somewhat as she wishes or
a tailor who may humor her in a like
manner, hut unless she has special
dyeing done for her she must select
from til*' colors set: before her.
Last fall some one hit upon a shade
which In' called henna as an especial
attraction. It might have been in- j
spired by some canon of art or it
might have been suggested by theRus- j
sian dressing of the* business man's !
luncheon, but the women wore it, and
that is all they had to say about it.
For the greater part the women are j j
willing sheep in matters of dress, bo
it color or line, and if not naturally |
thus inclined they show good sense
not to try to stray too far away. Hav
ing purchased one article in a color
not approved by the color censor, for,
really we have censors for everything
nowadays, it will lie found impossible j
to match the color in anything else
and an utterly hopeless task._
