UNALAsKA, Alaska, June s, 1891.
Editor ENTERPRIsE.-I I understand a
mail will leave this island in few days
and 1 will improve the time in writing
you. We arrived here today after a
stormy and rough trip of twelve days from
San Francisco. We will take on coal and
leave tomorrow or next day for the seal
islands, which are about 200 miles distant.
There haye been only two pleasant days
so far on our trip, and the way our boat
has pitched and rolled about has made a
land lubber think she was bound with
Mc9inty to the bottom Of the sea, although
the officers claimed there was not much
danger but what she would come out all
right. was sick most of the way over,
but not enough to throw up. Even the
officers of the boat suffered from sea sick.

collapsed; however, am conyinced 1t did
not materially injure her looks. Stanley
Brown was sick all the way over, but bore

young doctor from Virginia. He occu-
pies the state room with me. He knew
he should die and did not care much II he
did. If he could only see land once more
he never would 60 on the waters again.
But now that we are on land everybody
seems to haye forgotten his troubles of
the last few days and is happy. AS for
me, l made fun of the rest some of the
time and the rest of the time thought
what focl am to come up to this coun.
try.
Everything is so uncomfortable on the
boat: we do not ever have salt rising
bread. But my former experiences in
life of taking things as they come have
been help to me on this voyage. / find
those get along best who take things as
they come and are cheerful under all CIR.
cumstances.
We have now come about 2200 miles
and We sailed eleven days in one straight
line. The direction was half way be.
tween west and northwest. Most people
think that Alaska lies north of San Fran
cisco, whereas the most Of 1t lies west and
northwest. We saw only one vessel on
our trip and no land until yesterday.
The islands here have bold headlands
and are very picturesque in appearance,
covered with snow almost TO the foot OF
them. There was such heavy fog we
could not see some volcanoes which are
said to be active part Of the year.
The little town Of Unalaska is nestled
OF. little bay at the foot Of the mountains
and consists Of about thirty houses. / was
over 10 the mission school and had very
pleasant time with the people in charge.
But why anyone should want to live here
is more than can understand. The Is
lands are volcanic, void Of trees and with
little vegetation, while for seven months
in the year they are locked In an arctic
winter. W. H. WILLIAMS.

HANNIBAL HAMLIN.

Hannibal Hamlin, ex-vice president OF
the United States, departed this life at his
home in Bangor, Me-, on the evening OF
July A, at the ripe age Of 80 years.
The deceased had been In continuous
public service from 1886 to 1889 with the
exceptions of from 1s4o to 1S43 and from
1866 to 1868.
The men who were fifty years of age at
the commencement of the civil war are
rapidly passing away, There is no ex-
vice president now living. Andrew
Johnson, who was elected with Abraham
Lincoln in 1854, departed this life July 81
1876; Henry Wilson, elected with Grant
in 1872, died in 1875; Scuyler Colfax,
with Grant in 1853, died in 1885; Chester
A. Arthur, with Garfield in 1880, died In
1886; William A. Wheeler, with Hayes In
1876, died in 1857; T. A. Hendricks, with
Cleveland in 1884, died in 1885. Two ex-
presidents, viz, Hayes and Clevelandi are
still living.
Mr., Hamlin was a straightforward Re.
publican, and used every honorable means
TO support the party, as will appear by the
following extract taken from letter writ
ten to President Johnson, dated at Boston
Aug. 2S, 1865:
ITO the President.-ODe year ago you
tendere 10 me, unsolicited on my part,
the position of collector of customs tor

small fraction OF others, constitute the

coal company is Haunting red flag in
the face Of the mad bull and that the
action is but putting the match TO the

The socialists Not Wanted.

CHESTER, Pa, July 2s.--The Har-
mania Singing Society, a prominent
German organization Of this city, has
taken stand against the Socialistic mem
bers, and decreed that Anarchists and
Socialists shall 60. There was big
row at a recent committee meeting, and
a noisy Socialist was forcibly elected.
The principal agitator was Alvin Osler,
the treasurer His methods became so
offensive that the officers of the society
resigned in body. President Martin
Eichel refused to reconsider his resigna-
ton, but president Julius Jocher
and Secretary Rudolph Bender were
induced to remain. An election will be
held next Sunday to fill President
Eichel's place, as well as to appoint a
successor to Treasurer Osler, who was
forced to resign. The society at this
meeting will also take measures to eject
the active Socialists who remain.

HARRISBURG, Pa, July 28.-There
are 1900 men at work at the Pennsyl-
vania Steel Works to-day, and all of
the departments, including the newly
started billet mill, that the management
are to have in operation, were running.
Despite this the strikers say that they
are gaining, and must win the fight.
They certainly have not received any
aid from the officers Of the Amalga-
mated Association, and some of the
more destitute are asking for contribu-
tons.
In the billet mill this morning there
were enough men to run the dayHand
night turns, and all of the old men but
three are at work.
This afternoon surprise was sprung
on the strikers, when car containing
so experienced mill hands from Spar
TOW Point ran into the yard, and the
men were quickly distributed through
| the various mills. These men will help
10 start the Bessemer mill tomorrow,
| and with that in operation the backbone
| of the strike will be broken. The man
agement are very well satisfied with the
situation.
| Tonight tho train bearing workmen
from the mill to Harrisburg was stoned
by boys in sympathy with the strikers.
| The Hungarians were very angry at
some of their countrymen going to work,
but since so many departments have
started they are beginning to waver and
it is said would go to work in a body il
they were not afraid.

BUSINESS MIsFoRTUNEs.

The grain commission firm of Toucray
e. Bryan, in Omaha, Nebraska, has sus-
pended.
Judgments, aggregating $4,000, were
yesterday week entered against NJ. Benson
and ii. j. Beaudet, builders, IN New York.
Two judgments, amounting to S16400,
were yesterday week filed against Michael
Lawless, produce commission merchant in
New York.
w. G. Bishop & Sons, wholesale cigar
dealers of Wichita, Kansas, have made an
assignment. Liabilities about $4,000; as
sets unknown.
The Citizens Bank of Jefferson, Texas,
made an assignment on Tuesday week.
Its liabilities are reported at 100000 and
assets at Sl25,000 and it is believed all
creditors will be paid in full.
The sheriff yesterday week levied on
the Hudson River Boot and Shoe Manu-
featuring Company of New York on at
tachments aggregating 1895. Some at
tachments were obtained upon the
allegation that the company was dis.
posing of its business. The standing Of
this concern has been of the best, and
much surprise was felt in trade circles by
the action yesterday. The company, whose
factory is at Poughkeepsie, has branch
offices in Chicago and Philadelphia. La
bilitics are placed at Sl25000. with assets
largely in excess of that sum.
