Calderhead, First Over lee,
Reaches Skagway.
TRIP WAS DIFFICULT
1t Took Seventeen Days to Make
the Long Journey--New Snow
Caused Trouble--Trail Good to
misunderstanding for Partner.

The first man to reach Sksgway over
the lev winter trail from Dawson arrived
last night. He was R. w. CaIderhead,
who comes from the interior to join in the
search for Joseph lancaster, his missing
partner. He made the trip in seventeen
days, having left the Klondke metropolis
November 6, among the first to start on
the journey over the ice and snow. He
will go south on the Dolphin.
''We had hard trip out" said Mr..
Calderhead at the Occidental hotel last
night. "We were among the first to leave
DaW son after the freeze up and had much
trail TO reak. There were several snow
storms during the trip and as result we
had to fight new snow manv miles.
The trail was in excellent condition to
within Twenty-Five miles of Sekirk. but
from there to Lake Lab lrge it was simply
awful. ! had good man with me, MI.
Marion, who handled the dog team. Lake
LaBarge WAS still open and we crossed it
on the little steamer rasm 4na. After
crossing the lake we had little difficulty
and made the balance of the trip in fairly
good time.
Il expect to do all | can to find nv
partner. We have business on the outside
which | will attend to. will return to
Dawson over the ice in February"
This is Mr. Calderheads first trip out
from D1w son since going there in 1907.
He and Lancaster own large docks and
Warehous at Dawson and are agents for
a number of transportation companies.
Joseph Lancaster, member of the firm,
went outside last summer. He was in Sc
attic for some time and suddenly dsap-
peared from sight He has not been heard
from for months. The police of various
cities and the detective agencies have been
ppealed to, but as vet have been unable
to furnish single trace of him.

Seattle's Passengers Have
All Been Released
NEARLY ANOTHER SCARE
Victorian Ran Away With a Bunch
of Many Claim There
Was No Smallpox At All--It Is
Said Patient Played Foot Ball

The City of Seattle's passengers, after
spending nearly month at Williams
Held in quarantine, have all been re-
leased. Eighty were released on
November 10 and 81 on the 10th. The
remainder were to be discharged from
quarantine on the 18th.
There came near being another
scare on the 10TH said Capt. Nc
Gregor of the Ruth. After 81 of the
passengers had passed the rigid exam
ination conducte ed by the health officer
a man was discovered as to whom the
physicians seemed to have some doubts.
The passengers who had been passed
were on board the Victorian, and it
was whispered hat the physicians
were considering the question of taking
them back. They appealed to the cap
tain, who at once steamed off for Seattle
with his passengers The ship bad
hardly got out of hailing distance be-
fore the physicians decided that the
newly discovered suspect was not
troubled with smallpox symptoms. Had
the Victorian remained the last batch
of the detained passengers of her sister
ship would have gotten out of quarau-
tine one day earlier.
"Many of the quarantined passen-
gers stoutly maintain that the City of
Seattle did not have any smallpox on
board at all. they say the patient was
not sick at all, and was an active mem
Der of one of the football teams, and
often played at that game while in
quarantine.
"They think there was scheme in
the long detention. They say the ply
sicians were either foiled or were in a
scheme to shut American boats out of
British Columbia ports"

jury or Death.
The job Of the oiler Is by no means
enylable, says the Chicago Chronicle.
In big establishments there are such
vast numbers Of wheels, shafts, pistons
and other moving points Of contact
which need frequent fabrication that
one man Is kept constantly employed
pouring oil into the places needed. In
some Of the extremely large manufac-
turing plants where there are acres Of
machinery the services Of more than
one man are required to perform this
task. The job is more or less disagree
able and dangerous. One false step or
careless movement and the man may
come in contact with piece Of swiftly
revolving machinery that will hurl him
to death in a second. Every minute Of
his time is spent in a wilderness Of
powerful forces replete withdeath-deal-
ing vigor. AS is often the case, time
and long experience lead to careless
ness, and many oilers while engaged in
work have been caught in cog wheel
or fallen upon a shaft and been Instant
lly killed, fatally injured or manned for
life.
The oiler becomes so expert in his
work that by touching point of con-
tact he can tell from the degree of heat
whether or not the place needs lubri-
eating. In some instances a point be-
comes so hot that II is necessary to stop
the machinery and let the heated spot
regain Its normal temperature. If a
place is not too badly heated the oiler
can reduce the. temperature by the use
Of tallOw.
Sometimes the unusual heat is caused

stance or a bit Of worn-off metal in the

BRING SUIT FOR $4,000
Judgment Is Asked Against Cherokee
and Pittsburg Co.

Late yesterday evening a suit was fled
against the Cherokee and Pittsbrug Coal
and Mining company for the recovery of
/ SIC, 900. The plaintiffs in the case are
A II. Fabrique, o. D. Barnes and J. H.
Mccall. and are represented by Mr.. C.
V. Ferguson as attorney. The case
arises from a controversy over the own
ership Of the Sheetz building.
The plaintiffs statements as filed yes
terday are substantially as follows: Mr..
l. g. Sheetz owned lots 113 and is on
East Douglas for a considerable length
Of time prior to 1897. That is he was
really the owner although the legal title
was in the name Of Jacob Sheetz, L. G.
Sheetz holding the power of attorney,
which gave him the entire control OF the
property.
In 1892, L. C. sheetz began the erection
OF brick building on the lots and he
entered into contracts with builders and
material furnishes for the erection Of
the building. Only one story was built
that year and then the work was sus-
pended.
L. c. Jackson furnished material to
Mr.. Sheetz amounting to 81, 500 which was
unpaid. In 1898 Mr.. Jackson became in
solvent and transferred all his interests
TO the Cherokee and Pittsburg Coal and
Mining company. In 1897 the company
proposed TO Sheetz to pay off all claims
against the property and finish the erec-
ton Of the building. To secure the
company a deed was made by both Jacob
and L. G. Sheetz. It was stiplated in the
deed that the company shoulJ keen a
correct account Of all expenditures and
if at sny time, Mr. Sheetz should desire
to refund the money paid out. the prop
erty should be reconveyeds to him
The above mentioned company erected
the building, rented same until a few
weeks ago. and then sold the property
for $4,000. Now il G. Sheetz transferred
al his interests IN the property to A H
FabriQue, etal They claim the com
pany has refused and still refuses to give
any account of the money expended. The
plaintiffs alege that the company has re-
ceived at least $1,000 more than It has
cost them. The plaintiffs clsi mthat the
80 600 Is due them by virtue of the fact
that they now own the interests Of L G.
Sheetz.

FORCED TO BUILD
Henry Bolte Furniture Co.
Erecting a Warehouse.
ESTIMATED COST $1,000
Firm Fails to Secure Buildings
for Storage Purposes.

The work OF erecting a two-story ware
house for the Henry Bolte Furniture
company Is now in progress, and when
completed will cost $500. The building
Is located on West Waterman street and
is frame and will have corrugated iron
sides. The floor room will be 10000
square feet and ali of il will be used for
the storing OF furniture for the use OF
the firms uptown house.
The erection Of the new warehouse Is
the result of the inability Of the Bolte
people to secure building or even rooms
for the storage of their goods during the
coming season. It has been the custom
of the firm after the store was filed up
with stock to then store the balance, to
be placed in the store as the occasion
might demand. This year, however, is
the first time that the firm has had diff
Guilty in securing a place to store the
goods, and the new building seemed to be
the only solution of the problem.
Messrs. Brandt & Crib, contractors,
have charge of the erection and the work
Of construction viii be pushed as rap
idly as possible. The Bolte people now
need their warehouse. They nave Two
floors in their presentslocation and both
of these are filled with goods. At the
rear Of the store is a balcony, and this
is arranged so that goods can be placed
on IT,
The fact that a new building has to be
erected for storage purposes because an
other cannot be secured Is ample evil
dence Of the demand for business blocks
and rooms. This demand for the build
ings only means that others will need TO
be erected in the city for the business
interests.
The Henry Bolte Furniture company
has been established in this city for
many years. 1t is one Of the oldest bust
ness houses in Wichita, and after the
death Of Henry Bolte the founder Of the
firm, the business has been carried on
by the sons, Mr.. A. H Bolte and Mr.. R.
G. Bolte
It has been a number of years since
wichitans have realized that It was i'm
possible to secure suitable buildings for
business purposes.
