An infernal machine sent by ex
press to the Eastern Star Chapter
of Spokane, Wash., contained enough
explosives to have killed every wo
man in the lodge room had it gone
off when opened as the sender in
tended.
Commander D. W. Fuller of the na-1
val transport Buford was acquitted '
of neglect of duty in connection with |
the finding of 500 quarts of whiskey
on his ship when it arrived in Nor
folk some time ago. A skipper can
not be expected to know of every lit
tle thiffg that goes on about his ship.
Col. George R. Maloney of New Or
leans has all the ear-marks of hav
ing been an upright official as chief
of police of that city. After eight
years in office he retired with a $1500
mortgage still unpaid.
One Ohio town is strong for safety
first having an ordinance which pro
vides as follows: “When two cars
come to a crossing both shall stop
and neither shall start until the other
is gone.” If this be carefully observed
there will not be many collissions in
that city.
The first influx of tourists will ar
rive in Seward Saturday. Beyond
a wealth of scenery and a few miles
of auto road, the city has no more to
offer them than it had last year. We
are marking time while Cordova and
other belt towns are reaching out aft
er the business. Seward has plenty
of attractive spots but the difficulty
of reaching them negatives the effort.
Kenai Lake is one of our greatest at
tractions, but few tourists know of
the lake, and very few make the trip
down this magnificent body of water.
Some how or another there is a bet
ter spirit of optimism when Captain
Johansen arrives in town from the
westward. No greater booster exists
for Seward than the captain and his
popular crew. It is hoped that some
day we recognize his worth and help
work out his ideas for the betterment
of the town. The Starr is a regular
Christmas package for Seward mer
chants, and with the additional boost
ing given the town by the genial
Captain good results are attained. A
greater volume of trade comes here
each year, and it has worked up to
a point where it is really worth while
to go after it.
The growing town of Kodiak now
has two attorneys in the field, John F.
Coffee and Hal Roach having hung
out their shingles in the island me
tropolis. Years ago when the writer
was a boy lawyers and preachers
were the harbingers of civilzation,
and their arrival in camp was a sign
for the old frontiersmen to move on.
Wide Bay is looking up and oil ac
tivities in that section promises to
make a good camp there. The west
ward district is growing slowly, but
its growth is steady and substantial.
Score one for the jazz band. Mrs.
Salina Tipton who died recently at
Peoria. 111., left her estate worth over
$50,000 to Paul Ash, noted Chicago
jazz orchestra leader whom she had
never seen, but whose concerts she
had enjoyed over the radio.
Fifty Korean laborers feeling they
were being poorly treated, planned
a very effective strike by all laying
down with their necks on the rails
to await an oncoming train. They
were removed and arrested. Their
ingenious scheme might be copied by
other labor organizations.
