 In the rush of business, with an ever changing population, sometimes the most important things are forgotten.
 In the Douglas Cemetery lie the remains of one who wore the blue in the dark hour of civil strife, and it is not in the hearts of country loving Alaskans that on the day set apart for the honoring of their soldier dead and commemorating their noble deeds, that one should be passed by.

Beware of Peddling SANDER.

Among the odd actions brought be-
fore courts in Pennsylvania is one at
Pittsburg, instituted by Mr.. Howard
Bayley, who seeks 500, 600 damages
for alleged SANDER that he claims de-
barred him from becoming member
of two societies, and, besides, injured
him generally as citizen. Mr.. Bay
ley charges that one Joseph M. Baum
had told story that reflected upon
Mr.. Rayley's character, and thus kept
the latter out of the Americas Repub-
lican club and the Protective Order
of Elks. The plaintiff claims, also,
that the allegations against him con-
sisted Of an incident that is alleged
TO have occurred thirteen years ago,
are untrue.

Town in a neighboring state, and he

securing assistance to carry. on the

as important as the matter of univer-

sble, as many can testify, to keep SER

local worker will not enter domestic
service, and the imported girl, usually
from neighboring city, soon tires of
her quiet surroundings. Who will
ssolve this problem of growing import

Now, Will You be Good.

The average man is hypocrite in
his relations with his wife, because
ais wife forces him to be. His wife
aas lot of foolish notions about men,
sand the husband, in his early enthus-
Gasm, tries to live up to them. He
cannot do it and becomes sneaking
hypocrite. After he is charged with
being a sneaking hypocrite few times
and convicted he becomes surly, and
trouble results. A wife who expects
q lot of foolish things Of her husband
is simply putting out trap in which
he will surely be caught, and after he
has been caught he will be found an
xzgly customer. II a woman will treat
her husband intelligently and fairly,
she viii find him a good fellow, and
Ele will be of great assistance to her.

The Commissary General Attacks
Gen. Miles I'm Most Violent
Terms over Beef Contracts.

Washington, Jan. ID. - CommiSsary
General EaCan made a violent at
tack on Gen. Miles yesterday before the
army investigating commission. He de-
nornced the general in the most piIam-
matory language as a willful and ma
licious liar and slanderer, and said be
should be drummed out Of the service
and imprisoned with other libelers.
Cen. Eagan made this attack on Gen.
Miles with the greatest deliberation in
answer to the latter's allegations that
much of the beef furnished TO the army
during the war was unfit for use owing
TO the embalming process, and that it
was supplied "under the pretense of an
experiment"
Washington. Jan. 1.-THE war in
vestigating commission Friday passed
a resolution of censure of Gen. Eagan
for the language he used Thursday
wien he appeared 10 answer the
charges made against the commissary
branch of the army by Maj. Gen. Miles
and returned 10 him the carefully pre-
pared typewriter statement which he
left with the commission after reading
it to that body. With it's return was
sent letter explaining the reasons for
this action and copy of the resolution
passed
