Social Life i'm Sitka.

Visitors to Sitka pronounce it not a
bad thing at all to be a girl in Alaska
society, for girls are a long way above
par IN the social swim. There are card
parties and receptions, there are teas
and dinners on the trim little gun
boats, with men to preside at the urn
and show how badly even the best OF
the sex do the things a woman does SO
gracefully. There are balls in the
Russian castle on the hill. where in the
old days the Muscovite governors
brought their hich-bred wivss and
neld carnivalthrough the long Alaskan
winters. Like the japanese, III case Of
company, everybody borrowso Of every
body. The governors wife is served
from her own china at the captains
dinner, and the ~lIeutenant's bride NAV

the pavmaster's party. but there Is less
strife and envy and all uncharitable-
ness than II social circles at the great
centers Of civilization, where every
body is striving to Quito everybody
else. Globe Democrat.

The HERALD has noted with pleasure
the rapid growth of this society. Sons

descendants of those who participated
on the colonial side in the war of the
revolution, while entirely non-partisan
and non.secta-ian in political and re-
ligicus questions. it is strictly American
in all Of it's ideas and objects. The most
strict proofs of service of the ancestor in
the war for independence. as well as OF
an honorable personal record, are the
requirements for eligibility. Instituted
in 1776, the society has grown to vast
proportions. 1t is organized upon the
general plan of the United States gov.
ernment. Each state is entitled to a
posed of a congress OF delegates from
each state society. The society has
been recognized by the congress of the
United States, which by joint resolu
tion passed in 1890 and signed by Presi-
dent Harrison, authorized all officers
and men of the army and navy of the
United States, who are members
of this society in their own right, to
wear the Iuriquia upon all occasions OF
ceremony. An engraving of the seal of
the society is prefxed to this article.
and we also give cuts, diverse and re-
verse, OF the Iuriquia which is Of gold.

verse side bears ON it's face the portrait

ton having adopted the Continental

City hall park presented a brilliant
and inspiring spectacle after the troops
and societies of the parading column
had entered it and taken their stations,
filling the plaza and vacant spaces on
all sides. Light Battery X, First
United States artillery, Captain ]. W.
Dillenbsck, with the saluting gun, took
position in front of the city hall steps,
pointing their cannon toward the foun-
tain.
William CASTOR Hamilton, chairman
OF the statue committee, presented the
work in few patriotic words, when
little Miss Montgomery, daughter of
James Mortimer Montgomery, secretary
OF the general society, Sons of the Revo-
luton, pulled the cord which held the
fag-covering, and the statue of Nathan
Hale was unveiled. A great outburst of
patriotic cheers greeted the statue.
Handkerchiefs. canes. hats and flags
were waved, and thousands clappsd
their hands. As the glad shout went
up from park full of people, it was
answered by cannon OF battery X, with
Is reverberating discharges, informing
the city and people miles away that the
statue of Nathan Hale was unveiled not
far from the spot whore he gave up his

ory, and to dedicate the statue which
preserves it. He died near this spot,
saying: 81 am sorry that have but
one life to give for my country" Be-
cause that boy said these words, and be.
cause he died, thousands of other young
men have given their lives, each to his
country, and served her as che bsde
them serve her, even though they died
as she bade them die.
In the evening the society celebrated
the event by banquet at Delmonico's,
when DR.. Hale made some interesting
statements concerning Captain Hale.
Mr.. Talmsdge called upon him to re-
spond to the toast Nathan Hale. "
The great Boston preacher, with the
blood of the young martyr of the revolu-
tionary struggle pulsing through his
veins, had been sitting quietly by the
side OF the president of the society
throughout the progress OF the dinner,
his intellectual face bearing a strong
resemblance to that of Tennyson, a
study for those who sat in front of him,
and, as the author OF that thrilling,
patriotic story, A Man Without a Coun-
try, with the banner of the greatest re-
public on earth almost twined about his
head. When he arose to speak to the
toast every man at the tables responded
by arieing to his feet and cheering the
representative in kinship of one of the
nations canonized heroes. DR.. Hale,
referring to the young martyr linked
with hia ancestry, said
The history of that last summer of his
lie has every element of dramatic in
terest. His 2lst birthday comes as he
ia in the midst OF intense action. More
than 30 years ago | asked Mr.. Sparks,
the author of the Lie OF Washington,
what was the special information for
which Washington risked life go valu-
able in service 80 perilous. He replied:
1t is all the pities in the world that

asked him." In the personal corre-
spondence between Clinton and Wash
