made on the Admiral Evans at the last
hour, prior to her departure from Se
attle on the present trip, C. M. Blain,
purser *bf the vessel which arrived in
Seward last evening stated to the
Gateway. These cancellations were
due to the fact that the Thirty-Sixth
Triannual Conclave of Knights Tem
| plar was just gathering in Seattle. A
j number of other passengers missed
* the steamer on account of not being
1 ^ble to get through the crowded thoro
j fares in time to reach the dock before
j the Evans sailed. Nevertheless the
ship departed with a good sized pas
I senger list and enjoyed a splendid
J voyage north encountering ideal
weather conditions along the entire
" Alaskan coast.

north from Seattle of which 100 tons
were discharged locally and over 1000
taken to westward ports. The Evans

“QUALITY FIRST”
SON OF LATE CASPER KASSUTH
OF ANCHORAGE ARRIVES TO
SETTLE HIS FATHER’S ESTATE
Casper Kassuth, young man. from
Skagway arrived on the Admiral
Evans last night on his way to An
chorage where he goes to settle up
his late father’s estate. Casper Kas
suth, Sr., passed away in xYnchorage
some time ago where he was employ
ed by the City Meat Market as
butcher. Upon finishing up matters
pertaining to the estate, Mr. Kas
suth will come back to Seward and
return to Skagway where he will en
ter into business for himself, he hav
ing already taken a lease on a com
bination pool hall and restaurant.
Speaking of the “flower city,’’ Mr.
Kasuth said that flowers “ain’t” this
year, they having been nipped in the
bud by an early frost, it having
damaged the reputation of the “gar
den city” as far as tourists are con
cerned. All summer long, a boat a j
day has been coming into port, the
C. P. R. running their big palatial
Princes Charlotte alternately with
the other two Princess boats that run
into Skagway. Then the Canadian
National (the old Grand Trunk) has
their three-funnel liners going and
coming to capacity. According to ^
Mr. Kassuth, Skagway is getting her j
share of the business, and Atlin, B.
C. being the rendezvous for the ma
jority, a perfect schedule being
lined up which gives ample accom
modation for the thousands of tour
ists flocking there. The only thing
Mr. Kassuth regrets is staying there
this winter, as he says in his own
words that last winter it appeared
in his mind to be the “only electric
lighted graveyard in existence.”
