pine, after an absence of two weeks, j
The trip was successful in every respect1
and extended beyond Rampart House, a
point not heretofore reached by steam

Capt. Green reported fairly easy water
all the way. The Reliance departed for
Fairbanks Tuesday forenoon.
SUMMONED
TO SKAGWAY
Anich wanted in Cooke Case, Asks
To Be Excused.
Joe Anicich has been summoned to
appear in Skagwav, Alaska, July 15, to
give testimony in the court martial pro
ceedings against Col. George F. Cooke,
formerly in command at Fort Gibbon.
Mr. Anicich could not be compelled to
leave Alaska, and it is considered by
him greatly against his business in
terests to leave home at this season of
the year While General Maus was at
Fort Gibbon he laid the matter fully be
fore that officer, who entered into com
munication with the judge advocate of
the court martial in an endeavor to have
that body accept a deposition instead of
requiring the witness to testify in person.
Mr. Anicich hopes to receive a message
from General Maus informing him that
his deposition will be excepted, other
wise he will have to absent himself from
his business during The season of the
year that his presence is more particu
larly necessary.
Whether the court martial will finish
its labors in Washington, where it has
been ordered from Vancouver Barracks,
os again be ordered to the coast, is not
known.
Try the new barber at the Gibbon shop.
Nome’s Population
The grand jury is investigating the
rumor that there has been a leakage
from the wireless messages dispatched
from this station. The operators here
are not concerned in the matter, but it is
reported that by some means local ama
teurs have intercepted the electric waves
and learned more about other peoples’
business than they were legitimately en
titled to do. However this may be it
does seem wrong that any such a state
of affairs should exist, and it is hoped
the probing the grand jury is giving the
rhatter will have a beneficial effect.—

John Kehoe’s Letter
to the Irish World
The Irish World of April 30 contained
' the following letter from John Kehoe, of
Tanana, together with the names of the
, thirty-four contributors to the fund men
; tioned and the amount contributed by
| each. The letter was printed under the
heading, "From Far-away Alaska for
Irish Home Rule”:
Tanana, Alaska.—Dear Mr. Ford: En
closed find $54.50 contributed by citizens
of Tanana for the Irish Parliamentary
Fund. We hope that this belated mite
from far away Alaska will help achieve
Home Rule for Ireland. We are greatly
indebted to the editor of the "Tanana
Leader” for many courtesies and for
frominent generous space given to ous
und and the subscribers. His St. Pat.
rick’s Day issue was very complimentary
to the Irish people. He is advocating
Home Rule for Alaska and so can sym
pathize with Home Rule for Ireland.
JOHN KEHOE.
The outside mail arriving last Thurs
day night was the largest ever received
in Tanana. There was two or three
tons of it.
Personal Mention.
H. W. Strangman, who has been one
of the staff at the Mission for the last
year, has resigned and will leave on the
Susie to accept a position with the X. C.
Co. at Xulato. Mr. Strangman expects
to return to Boston late in the fall.
Mr. Horstman, C. E.f M. E., of San
Francisco, is in town looking after Col.
Cooke’s mining interests. He expects
to remain here most of the summer.
Mr. Horstman accompanied by George
Vautier started for Grant creek yester
day in the Marie Karstina.
G. J. (“Socialist”) Brown returned
today from the outside, having spent
the winter in various parts of Washi
ington.
It. It. Stoddard arrived on the St.
Miehael Tuesday night from Hot
Springs, Ark., where he spent the win
ter. He is looking fine. He was on the
steamer Casca when it sunk in Thirty
mile river.
Depntv Marshal Quiner is down from
the Springs. He had been called on
business further down river, but finds
it unnecessary to go.
Chief Isaac, of Dawson, with two of
his followers, floated into Tanana Sun
day evening and will return again on
one of the first boats. The local natives
did not miss this opportunity of having
a big potlatch, which was pulled off Tues
day night. Isaac is the chief of the
Moosehide tribe near Dawson, and is
! known as a very intellegent and ener
j getic man. At one time he contem
plated a plan to federate the various
native tribes of his part of the country,
with himself as supreme chief, but he
finally realized that the scheme would
be impracticable with the influence and
authority of tha white man extending
so rapidly.
Sister and Brother
Meet After Years
Tuesday morning a brother was in the
company of his sister for the matter of
; an hour without being recognized by
1 her.
The brother is Ed Williams, who
drifted in in a small boat from up the
: Yukon at 5 o’clock, and the sister is
Mrs. Hattie Gilmore, who has a barber
shop on Front street. They had last
seen each other in Minnesota ten years
ago. Mr. Williams was then a lad in
knee pants; now he is a bearded man.
He made a pact with other members of
i the family not to reveal his identity,
and then* went in, was shaved by his
sister and remained in conversation for
some time without her becoming any
the wiser. The denouement came when
some one addressed the man as “Ed.”
Minto Chieftain
After a Drink
This afternoon Chief Charley, of the
Minto Indians, while in the store of the
i
Rodman Alaska Trading Company,
! reached behind the counter and took a
i bottle ef whiskey from the shelf. He
thought no one was looking, but was
mistaken, as Special Deputy Howell was
called and conducted the chief to the
skookum house.
He had considerately left the price in
the bottle’s place.
