PUBLIC GAME HAS BEEN POST-j
PONED FOR MATTER OF
FEW WEEKS.
Two Strong Ladies’ Teams Now Fully
Organized and Going.
Tuesday night’s indoor baseball
game, staged by the women, was pret
ty much of a ball game at that! The
Marathon Maids, keyed up because of
their defeat of the preceding week,
bombarded their opponents, the Gate
way Girls from the very first inning
and more than squared accounts. The
final score stood 19 to 13 in favor of
the Marathon Lassies, but at that the
Daily Gateway will not change the
name of the paper on account of the
defeat of the girls who are using Sew
ard.swell known slogan.
Larssen, diminuative pitcher of the
Gateway Girls, twirled conunendably,
considering it was her initial endeav-;
or, and wore the smille of determina- ^
tion as she bowed to her successful j
adversary, Barnett, who pitched the
steadiest game of the season in rath
er handy fashion herself. Sheldon and
Miss Bee—, dark horse on the hilltop
nine who substituted for McConnel
put up good games behind the bat.
One of the features of the evening
was the playing at first base by Shell
horn. “Shelly” was moved over to
first base because of the temporary
absence of Bevier, regular caretaker
of the initial sack for the Gateway
Girls, and not only nabbed every
thing that came her way, but injected
a lot of pep into the pastime by her
activity. Rucker, Lein and Jacobsen,
G.G. infielders, made remarkable pick
ups and fielded their position like vet
erans.
Rede, Valade and Painter carried
the bulk of the defensive work for
their side, ably assisted by Jessen
and Banbury.
After the game a general discus
sion was held at which it was decided
to postpone the playing of the pub
lic game which the girls were anxious
to play next week. Mr. Badger over
ruled the anticipation, pointing out
several weaknesses still to be over
come, and which can only be improv
ed upon through further practice
games, and the unbroken attendance
of everyone of the players.

NORTHERN NOTES
As the result of a shooting affray 1
last week, Tom Tanaka, a Japanese, is i
in St. Ann’s hospital with a bullet I
wound in the head and Valentine Tor
re^, Filipino, is confined in the Federal
jail on an open charge pending the out-.
come of the shooting. No definite rea
son has been established for the shoot
ing but it is believed to be the cul
mination of a series of quarrels and
fights said to have been engaged in by
the two men for several days at Ju- _
neau.
Charles Butler was a recent visitor
in Nome from Glacier creek, where he
is engaged in mining, he reports things j
rather quiet out in that section.
A mining merger of vast import
ance to the HydeY district is involved
in negotiations recently instituted in |
the States between the Daly Alaska '
Mines Co., the Premier Mining Com-1
pany and the McGrew-Fernald Hobo i
group owners. I
Records for individual corporation j -
filing fees paid to the office of Terri-»
torial Secretary were broken when a j
check for $1,375 was received from i
the Union Oil Company, of California, I
for filing its articles of incorporation. J
This, according to Secretary Karl |
Theile, is the largest single filing fee
ever paid to the Territory. The larg
est previous fee ever paid was made
by the Dupont Powder Co., which paid
a fee of $900 for filing its amended j
articles. The Union Oil Co., paid on j
a capital stock isue of $125,000,000.
