A Surprise Wedding.

J. E. Coffin, of Douglas City, Alaska, a full blood Indian, was first known as a mission boy in the Friends Mission of this city nine years ago. It was this school in which he began his edu- cation and where he remained for three vears. after which he was employed as interpreter for Charles Edwards in his work among the Rake Indians. For six months he served in this capacity Desiring a better education, that he might be more able to devote his life to the uplifting of his race, he was then sent to the Industrial Government School at Chemawa, Oregon, where he remained two years, during which time he learned the shoemaker'S trade.
 After he returned to Alaska he was again engaged as interpreter for the Rake Indians. this time by the Friends Missionary Board of Oregon Yearly Meeting. where he remained for more than two years employing his spare mo- ments to the application of his trade.
 He has proved himself to be young man of rare ability; a capable interpre ter having a general knowledge of both the Thlingit and English language, an excellent pilot for small boats in the s. E. Alaskan waters, and exhibits a talent for music which might be envla- bIe to one of the more enlightened race.
 After completing his engagement with the Missionary Board he engaged in the mercantile business at heCchl- kan. On the 10th ut. he returned to 'Douglas City, and, to the surprise ot his many friends, was married on the 22nd OWashington's birthday to Irene 1T. Beard. full blood Indian girl who has been for five years in the Friends Mission on this island. The wedding took place in the Mission school house at high noon in the presence of many invited guests both native and white, Rev. RepIogIe officiating. The services were short and impressive. After con gratuIations. the newly welded couple and guests repaired to the house of Charlie Rake. an uncle of the bride, where they were hospitably served to a delicious wedding dinner.
 The bride and groom were presented with several presents; among them were a glass water pitcher, two glass goblets, a soup bowl by Mrs. Harvey and Mrs. Churchill; halibut line and a set of table spoons, MT. and Mrs. Rep logic: table linen, Miss Jennie Laurence can of jam, E. w. Weesner, and a large water pitcher by Jennie Rake.
 Their many friends wish them mucE
 joy and happiness in their welded life

At Berners Bay.

Mr. George Bach, superintendent or the Alaska Gold Mining Co.,, of BernerS Ray. was caller on the News last Monday. He has lived with his family aft Juneau this winter and made regu- lar trips to look after the company m terests. The Alaska Indiana Co. has ten-stamp mill, air compressors, ana all other machinery necessary, on the ground. and the buildings. including boarding house, are up, and as soon as the water begins to flow from the mountains the stamps will commence dropping. The Alaska Indiana prop ertv adiOins that of the Jualin Mining Co, and there. as well as in hundreds of other places in this part of Alaska, there is an abundance of ore to run the mills until Gabriel sounds his trump ct.
 There are but few men ill Alaska who understand the mining business ana mining properties any better than does Mr. Bach and tine News man undertook the task of getting few opinions rom him unawares, and succeeded too. When we say that MT. Bach Is posted, we have taken into consideration the fact that he has visited all the mining localities of the United States and Old Mexico, and spent seven years in South America in that business. and then he has been strictly in it" since he came to Alaska.
 Mr. Bach thinks this part of Alaska will be the greatest mining country III the world and that in quantity and quality of ore, it is not surpassed any where. We were especially pleased to hear him express a very favorable Qpin!- ion of the POrcupine country. He IS enthusiastic upon the mining interests of southeastern Alaska.
 Come to Berners Bay for a week and let me show you around" said MT, Bach to the News man as he was leav' ing. We don't let such an opportunity pass us and our readers can expect, a write up for that country in the spring when the ground settles.

We much regret the departure of NIr. Bowman, in which, the News is joined by all who know him. for he has made hosts of friends while in Juneau and is deserving of every one of them.

Read the Ledger.

We observe by a Seattle exchange that the Post-Intelligencer is losing it's grip and that other dailies in the State of Washington are forging ahead and will soon take first place in the journal istic field in that state. Of late we have been reading the Tacoma Ledger, and find it wide-gauge, first-class pa per, and we only wonder that it's man agement has done so little towards in troducing it in Alaska. The Ledger IS by far the best paper of the two and it ought to find ready sale in this dis trict.

Ten Years Off.

Just after the last term of court we published short biographical sketches of the District Judge, Attorney, Mar shal, and Clerk. We heard from the District Attorney on the subject and in speaking on the subject of our sketch he says: "There is one slight objection, that is you have added ten years to my age. While 1 do not make pretensions to youth, yet am only forty eight in stead of fifty-eight, but little matter of ten years doesn't cut much figure anyway" e
 Good. We accept the roprimand, for it was through carclessness on our part that the mistake occurred, and while Col. Friedrich is only forty-eight Ill years he is fully fifty-eight i'll eXperl.. ence. and if you can name any kind of a swim" he hasn't been in, do it. Few men would come from social center like San Francisco to Alaska and so joy fully adapt themseIvesto the changed conditions. as Col. Friedrich has done. He can view an Indian dance or observe the grace and eloquence ot Louvre hirh kicker with as much composure as he would look at q woman attlred Tn a low-necked dress at q "45O" swell Ju- neau ball. The Col. is all right, no matter where you put him.
