WIRE DISPATCHES
TO ARMY OFFICERS
ON STEAMER YUKON
BANQUET SATURDAY BE OPPOR
TUNITY FOR MANY FRIENDS
OF ‘COL. DICK’ TO WELCOME
HIM TO STAMPING GROUNDS
A telegram was dispatched to Ma
jor General Harry Taylor, General
Wilds P. Richardson and Colonel Jas.
G. Steese, on board the Seward
bound steamer Yukon, by the Seward
Chamber of Commerce, informing the
army officers of plans being made
locally for their reception. A ban
quet. will be given in their honor at
the Seward Grill, Saturday after
noon at 1 o’clock.
The business men of eward have
been extended an invitation from the
chamber to attend the banquet, so
that they may avail themselves of
the opportunity of hearing the speech
es of the prominent officers. During
the evening it is expected the offi
cers will be entertained at private
residences. From plans already an
nounced it is stated the officers will
depart on Sunday morning for the
Interior. From Fairbanks they will
return to the coast via the Richard
son Highway.
No Trace Found of
For Island Poachers
Marshal H. P. Sullivan and Mr. T.
C. Atterbury, special agent of the De
partment of Justice, returned on the
June eastward trip of the mail ship
Starr, from an extended trip to the
vicinity of Unga, where the poaching
case of A. E. Reeves on Bendel and
Spectacle Islands were thoroughly in
vestigated. The length of time elaps
ing between the act and the discovery
of theft on the islands has allowed
the guilty parties to cover their tracks
so well as to make it impossible to
immediately apprehend them, but the
case will be given continued vigilance
with the hope that if they are not
found that there will be little likeli
hood of further depredations.

SEAL PUP SWIMS
ASHORE, SEWARD
A baby seal pup, blind in one eye,
came swimming ashore on the water
front last night and Emil Johnson,
formerly of Seldovia, where he has
handled seals before, picked up the
pup and carried it home. Mr. John
son, after an examination of the
seal’s eye, said he was not certain
that the little pup was blind, but
that he was going to give it treat
ment for a while and see how it
comes out. The pup appeared very
friendly to Mr. Johnson, but endeav
ored to make weak snaps at persons
approaching it. It is a poor bluffer,
Johnson said.

Blue Fox Rancher
Has His Hands Tied
The failure of the Blux Fox Asso
ciation to bring about the enactment
of the amendments offered to the pre
sent blue fox law last winter leaves
the Blue fox rancher with his hands
tied so far as apprehending poachers
are concerned unless the poacher is
caught in the act or is found with a
branded fox. The enactment of the
amendments would have made it in
cumbent upon the possessor of a live
| fox to immediately go before a U. S.
; commissioner and make affidavit as
to where he obtained the fox and have
the same branded by the commission
er as a means of identification, which
he does not even have to do with a
pelt under the present law, though it
i was clearly the intent of the law to
make it compulsory for a possessor
(not a fox rancher), of an unbranded
blue fox pelt to have it identified and
branded by said Commissioner. The
present law merely says that a pos
sessor shall have the pelt identified
and (tagged) if he is in the vicinity
; of a U. S. Commissioner.—The Blue
Fox.

Seward-Evans Ball Teams
To Mix Twice a Month
RIOT ACT IS READ TO PLAYERS
SEWARD TEAM FOR CARELESS
PLAYING IN LAST SUNDAY’S
GAME—“NO EXCUSE FOR IT!”
Seward baseball fans will have the
opportunity, hereafter, of watching
the Seward and the Admiral Evans
teams battle together every two
weeks for the remainder of the sea
son, according to plans workd out
by Captain Rood of the Seward club,
and the management of the speedy
Evans nine.
Referring back to Sunday’s game,
with the Evans wrecking crew, much
criticism has been heaped about re
garding the loose playing of the Sew
ard infield. This also goes for the
lads on the Evans. If they want the
crowds to trail out and watch them
play horse for a couple of hours,
they should forget it and bury the
idea. Frequent errors, taking the in
field ground into consideration, were
made in the game Sunday, and it is
stated that with regard to the Sew
ard aggregation, the infielders do
not judge their plays in advance
which, when the ball is in action, is
responsible for the apparent boners
pulled off.
It is stated Thor Peterson, who
has just began to get his stride in
the outfield, will be a regular mem
ber of the locals from this period on.
A number of the fans were disap
pointed in not seeing him in his
“unies” last Sabbath.
Anchorage Ball Team
Wants Some Mazuma
for Playing Baseball
THE QUESTION IS: “CAN SEWARD
GUARANTEE $125 IN ORDER TO
HAVE GAME?”—ANSWER WILL;
BE HASHED OUT BEFORE TEAM
ARRIVES FROM “THE CITY OF
DESTINY.”
The Anchorage and the Seward
baseball teams will not play a game
here the latter part of the week, for,
according to a telephone report from
the “City of Destiny” yesterday, the
members, comprising the Anchorage
picked team, who will be en route j
to Cordova for a three-game series,
want ten bucks per man if they
Play a game against the Seward out
fit. The reason for this charge is
given that they would have to come
over on Saturday’s train, losing a
day’s work in Anchorage, besides
running up the overhead during their
overnight stop at the “Golden Gate”
of the North. Sounds reasonable at
that! The vital question now before
the house is: “Can Seward guaran
tee the Anchorage lads $125?”
