ANTHONY HOLMES DEAD.
Pursued BY Adverse Fortune Till the
End.

Many readers will remember An
thony Holmes, the blacksmith, who
after residing in Seattle for long
time built little iron steamboat and
took her to Alaska. The building and
fitting cut OF the steamer took all of
Holiness ready money. and on his ar
rival ut Alaska he did not have sufii-
cient funds to pay off the crew. As
they were anxious TO get their money
so as 20 go into the mines they at
tached the steamer. From this on the
costs commenced 10 pile up. and when
the steamer was sold by the marshal
she only brought little more thaa
enough 10 pay the claims against her
and the costs. Holmes scraped to-
gether a few dollars and went to the
Yukon. He was discouraged and
broken down in health, but still
hoped that his luck might change.
1t never did, however, and the poor
fellow became more and more de-
spondeat. lie finally arrived at such
a condition physically, that il was an
utter impossibility for him ever 10
reach civilization again, and he grad
ually wasted away, and finally died
few weeks ago. His companions did
the best they could for him with the
limited means at hand They made a
rude coffin and over his grave placed
cedar slab, with his name and age
carved thereon.

Yesterday CHIEF OF Police Mitchell
caused the removal OF the railing In
front Of the First National bank on the
Yesier-Leary eorner--an action which
al good citizens viii appreciate. This
railing has been roosting place for
loEsngers for a long time. and had be-
come a paf3ic nuisance In good
weather. especially towards evening. il
was Always occupied by a crowd Of
men swapping stories. splitting tobacco
juice on the sidewalk and oQiing the
passrr=-lyy. Several schemes have
been proposed 70 ahste the nuisance.
one Of which was 20 run a wire along
the railing ard attach Il tan. electric
battery Then when alt the seats
were occupied. an elertric current was
10 be sent along tie railing. This MSS
considered g very feasible proposition,
and one which promised an infin-
ite amount Of fan. No one
came to the front. how
ever. with sufficient nerve 10 carry the
idea out aud Chief MitchelE's cosn-
inendahie action i probably the best
thing that could have been done under
the circumstance The regular occa-
pants OF the railing had recently com
planned more or less about the hard
seats, and had informally discussed
the proposition of petiiioning the city
council to provide Cushions and back
for the railing. This idea has now
been nipped IN the bud Many OF the
old hahitues of the corner dropped
around last evening, a. usual, for their
customary sitting, and looked sur
prised and panied when they saw the
old landmark gone They rubbed
their eyes moment, gazed sorrow-
fully at the changed scene, and those
who could rake up a nickel started of
Tor nerye-bracer. One fellow came
along without noticing the change and
from force of habit squatted. as he
on the railing. He landed
ia the street several feet below, and
those who saw the look Of surprise on
his face viii never forget Ii. He was
greeted with howls and cat-calls from
the crowd assembled, and painfully
picked himself up and limped away.

LOCAL MISCELLANY.
THs GILMAN NINE IIKrIr TO sraxr
ur AGAIN. seox.
The Company Win Give Old Hands
an Opportunity 10 Return TO work
The Estate Of George A. EassIer,
the Wandered Man.

The situation At Gilman remains nm
changed. and the mine l. ssII c,osea
down. The only difference between
the men ard The company is qneS-
ton 81 wages. The difference between
the men ard the company Is only
about half dollar q yard. The mine
has Eow been shut down about a
month. and the company il willing to
start up whenever the miners are
ready 70 resume work The officials
OF the company claim that the
prlses they are offering are
higher than those paid by any other
company IN the territory. and that
they can get all the men they want to
work az saeh figures, bat before put
ing in new men they will give the old
hands ample time 10 think the matter
over. A gentleman who arrived from
Gilman yesterday, said Il talked 70
q number of the miners and they all
expressed themselves as DESTROYS of
going 10 work. There are some splen-
did men among the miners,
some OF whom have bought lands
and own their own homes. There
are others who would rather talk than
wors. and they are the ones who are
principally responsible for the closing
dowK. 81 the mine. There has been no
bad feeling engendered by either side.
and ] would not be surprised TO see
the mine start up by the first Of next
week. know of my own knowledge
that Offers have been made to the
eonpany 10 furnish all the men who
are required TO operate the mine at
the prices they are offering. but so far
the company has refused to negotiate
with new men.
The Gilman coal mine belongs to
the Seattle Coal & Iron Company, a
corporation backed with ample means,
and the success or failure OF the Gil
man mine viii have a great influence
on their futnre operations in this sec
ton Of the territory. The mine has
been operated at loss, and when Mr..
Gilman was here he declared that if it
could not be made 10 pay fair profit
