[NO FEDERAL
APPOINTMENTS
PRESENT TIME
The probabilities are that there will
be no appointments of federal offi
cials for Alaska made until shortly
before congress convenes in Decem
ber. Delegate Dan Sutherland re
mained in Washington all summer,
but as there appeared to be nothing
doing is now making a trip through
Southwestern Alaska, and will return
to Seward next week.
Among the officials to be named for
Alaska are four federal judges in the
four judicial divisions of the Terri
tory; four United States marshals in
four divisions, and four U. S. attorneys
for the respective divisions. The in
cumbents are: Judge T. M. Reed; Dis
trict Attorney Arthur Shoup, and U.
S. Marshaal George Beaumont in the
First division.
In the Second division are Judge J.
H. Lomen, District Attorney Fred Har
s rison, and U. S. Marshal Jones.
> In the Third Judge E. E. Ritchie,
U. S. District Attorney Sherman Dug
gan and U. S. Marshal H. P. Sullivan.
In the Fourth are Judge Cecil Clegg,
U. S. Attorney Julien Hurley and U.
[ S. Marshal Bert Stevens.
It- is known that Delegate Suther
■ land is opposing the reappointment of
all the present officials in the First
division as well as some of the others
in the Second, Third and Fourth. It
is said that the appointment of Judge
E. E. Ritchie and Marshal H. P. Sulli
van is assured. District Attorney
Duggan is said to be seeking the
position occupied by Mr. Ritchie. Mr.
H. G. McCain, assistant at Cordova, is
seeking the District Attorneyship in
the First division. J. L. Reed, now
United States Commissioner at Val
dez, is after the District Attorneyship
for the Third Division, and W. D. Cop
pernoll of Seward, a prominent attor
ney of this division, is seeking the
nomination for Judge of the Second
division. Reports have stated that
Mr. Coppernoll is out for Distfict At
torney, but such is not the case.
Marshal Sullivan, the old Republi
can wheelhorse of Valdez, will un
doubtedly be reappointed. His tenure
of office does not expire until next
February.

SURPRISE SHOWER
LAST EVENING
MIS SM. ROEGLER
DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR HELD IN
LODGE ROOM AT ODD
FELLOWS HALL.
A most enjoyable surprise shower
was given Miss Margaret Rogeler,
sister of Mrs. George Schmidt, in the
lodge rooms of Odd Fellow’s hall last
evening, by thirty-five of her friends.
The affair was in honor of Miss Roge
ler’s conning marriage on Sunday,
October 4, to Mr. Charles Lechner.
Miss Rogeler was brought to the
hall shortly after the guests had gath
ered and her look of astonishment as
she stepped into the midst of the par
ty, was worth a whole lot to have
witnessed. To say she was delighted
is putting the case rather mild. The
presents of a great variety, which ov
erflowed a large hamper, had been
placed in the center of a circular
group of chairs, and as they were op
ened up by the happy recipient, they
11 were passed around and admired by

HAD FEELING FOR EGGS
AND FIVE DOLLAR BILL
One of the sailors from the U. S.
C. G. Cutter Bear, which was in port
yesterday told a good one on his bun
kie which all happened in Nome wThen
they Bear called in at the Northern
ports. While the ship was in port
one of the sailors, having a feeling for
many eggs went up-town and consum
ed six of them. Telling his shipmates
later of his fine eats, he had a hard
time convincing the boys that he had
eaten this number of eggs. Finally
he declared he could eat twenty of
them and he wras told that if he did,
the spectators would pay for the hen
fruit and also pay him $5 for his trou
ble.
In no time at all the sailor left,
eggs easily stowed away amidships
and a fivei dollar bill that was burning
a hole in his pocket. Some folks have
all the luck!
