Indian Love and Fifty.nine Days in Jail.

Johny Danawahkish is an Indian that lives on Douglas Island. Johny is a young buck and likes the young klootches only too we'll. Johny is not particular either whether the object of his solicitude and love is married or single-his devotion reaches out for it's mark just the same.
 Willis Willis is the name of young and has for his wife the most beautiful little klootch in this part of Alaska.
 She has those large, sweet, dreamy eyes, low, soft voice that is simply en- chanting, voluptuous red lips, teeth like pearls, and a smile that makes you dream of Mary, Queen of Scotts or Hell en of Troy An! gentle reader we have but feebly described this Indian prin- cess, and many indeed are the white men who have looked upon Anna Will lis, for that is her name, with lascivious and covetous eyes.
 Now Willis occasionally gets into trouble. Such an accident befell him a few weeks ago and poor Willis had to go to jail aud leave his dream of wife to the tender mercies of a cold and cruel world. His time was out the first of the week, and when he went home to greet his dear, sweet, little klootch he found that for four and one half days the joy of his heart had been liv- iug with Johny. Did Willis get gun and hunt for Johny? Oh!no He went to Judge Malcom to have Johny arrest ed on the charge of adultery. Some one made the Judge believe that Johny could not be prosecuted alone, so he issued warrant for Johny and Anna, too. They were duly tried, convicted and sentencedto fifty nine days con- finement in jail. They are in the bas- tile now, and Willis is nearly heart broken. He did not want his wife pros ecuted. It was Johny that he wanted to see safely behind the bars.

Farewell Reception.

At the Congregational church last Thursday evening a farewell reception was rendered Miss Laura Green, who goes to her old home in Colorado, and her friend Miss Gertz who returns to Tacoma. The gathering was pleasant yet sad one-where people both laughed and cried. The games were played, and lunch of coffee and cake enjoyed, and the songs were lively, but when the pastor spoke the parting words for Sun day School, Endeavorers, and friends generally, every face was sober. When Miss Green with face radiant with smiles but with tears in her voice re- cited and forgot her lines, and when Miss Gertz followed with recitation, the house was silent and attentive. Miss Green has been the faithful sec retary of the Sunday School through storm and sunshine, with the storms prevailing, ever since it's organization, we believe. Among those who assisted in informal entertainment were T. Will Hams, Miss Lizzie Mckenna and Mrs. Ross. The girls each carried away a book with fy-leaves covered with the names of their friends in Douglas City.
