COLLECTING DELINQUENT TAXES
Auditor Forrest completed the delin-
quent tax roll for 1883 yesterday, and
turned ii over to Sheriff McGraw. A
great many applications TO pay delin-
quent taxes have been made at the
sheriff's Office since the treasurer
ceased collecting on the lst of March,
ard many thousand dollars would
have been collected by this time had
the auditor been abe to copy the roll.
The treas1rer's Office was also terribly
crowded aud overworked for several
days after tax collecting was over, and
this delayed the preparing OF the roll
for the auditor. During this six
weeks OF delay many taxpayers who
had neglected TO pay before March 1,
have besieged the sheriff7s Office, in
order To ray before further expenses

Deputy Sheriff Mekinlay busy all the
afternoon hunting up the charges

Courtship In Alaska.

John Warnken is bold mariner and
| fisherman who. during the past seven
months, has been engaged at fishing
station in Alaska, but is now on the
briny ocean as a coasting seaman.
There is heavy burden on Johns
heart and mind, and it will require
great deal of patience before he re-
lieves himself of the weight This
burden is no less than a separation
from his lady love in far-of Alaska
For two years past Warnken, or. as he
is termed, ..Nickel-plated Johnny"
has been hopelessly smitten with the
charms of the young daughter OF an
old half-breed Aleut rejoicing in the
name of Melekoff. Nightly he would
venture on frail boat across the raging
waters of the river to visit his lady love,
but, beyond the signs that the lovers
are to greet their inamoratas with,
neither he nor she were able to con-
verse with one another unless by the
aid of an interpreter.
Matters, however eliminated in a
proposal of marriage during August
last. The proposition was accepted,
and it was arranged that the wedding
should take place when the Russian
priest visited the villagaa, The eccles-
iastic arrived, but Johnny's colaborers
were grievously disappointed, and
Johnny himself saw his vision of bliss
fading when the priest refused to marry
him unless he could procure some
documentary evidence to prove that he
had no wife living. His. hopes thus
pOndered so seriously that his condi-
ton, both mentally and physically be-
came alarming. When Bishop Vlad-
imir visited Alaska, Warnken applied
to him for permission to marry his dear
Marcia, but again he met with re-
fusal. With determination worthy
of a better cause, he resolved to en-
deavor to marry his lady love under
the laws of the United States. He
stated to the father that by getting her
to Kadjak he thought to enlist the SER
vices of the school teacher, who is an
ordained minister and also acts under
a dispenSation from Gov. Swineford as
a justice of the peace. With many en-
braces and vows of eternal love eX-
changed in panotmimic manner,
Johnny and his fair Marcia bid adieu.
When the vessel returned to the fishery
a letter was received from the tickle
mariner stating that .as he could not
obtain work in Kodiak for the winter
his dear Marcia must wait for him till
next year. Meanwhile he would save
his money and work hard this winter
SO as TO marry her in the coming sum-
mer. This letter was written in Rus
sia to the girls father and evoked con-
siderable wrath on the head of the de-
parted swain. When the last vessel
left the fishing station there were ru-
mors that the fair Marcia had trans
ferred her affections to a friend Of
Johnny's, who remains at the station
during the present winter. 1t may be
stated that the Russian priests and
Bishop Vladimir view with great dis
like the marriage of any Aleut or. Gre
ole woman to an American.
