Kind Words from Our Former Home.

Stikeen River Journal.
 We regret to announce the loss of Mir. and Mrs. McBride, and MT. and Mrs. Hopp, as citizens of Wrangel, who went north on the Dirigo, to Douglas City, where they will set up the plant of the Wrangel News, and publish it as a Douglas City paper. The fact that Mcbride & Hopp are at the head of the enterprise is a sufficient guarantee that it will be a success.

In the Courts.

The United States District Court is in session at Juneau now. A tempora- ry court room and jail have been provi- ded and things are running along nice ly. Judge Johnson presides with his usual dignity, Clerk Elliot keeps his de- partment in first-class shape and Mar shal Shoup opens court and rounds up the hobos in charming manner.
 The stock of lawyers is ample. M. J. Cochran, formerly of Wrangel, but now of Juneau, is on hand with plenty of business. Judge Vim, as genial and pleasant as ever, is ''in evidence" Our old friend, Judge Louis K. Pratt, now of Skaguay is also down. He has been in the district but a short time, but the boys will find him a powerful ad- versary. Undoubtedly he is one of the best lawyers in Alaska. Bro. Donahue one of the incest boys in Alaska seems to have plenty to do.

THE PRISONERS.
Safely Conveyed from Sitks to Juneau on the Cottage Clty-Deputies Hanlln and
 Shook In Charge.

The Cottage City returned from her trip to Sitka last week and brought seventeen prisoners and four detained witnesses to Juneau who will receive some attention by the juries that are in attendance at court. The expedi- tion was in charge of United States deputy marshals Hanlin and Shook, two of the most trusted deputies on the force. MT. J. Hanlin has been a deputy marshal in this district for the past seventeen years, and is most competent official. "Did you have any trouble with the boys?" he was asked by News man.
 "None whatever" was the reply. The deputy is probably too wary to give them chance to make any trouble. We have never heard of any prisoner getting away from him.

 Last Wednesday night about four inches of snow fell on Douglas Island and on Thursday morning light wind was blowing which continued during the day.

On account of the disagree able weather, there were but few peo- pie on the streets. The stock of tur- keys in market was exhausted early in the week, but new supply was obtain ed at Juneau.
