FOR A GOOD CAUSE.
THE CEMETERY BENEFIT ENTERTAINMENTS
 MRS. GoULD's SUCCESS.

! While the people of Douglas Island are as varied in their politics, religious beliefs and nationality as those of any community on the footstool, yet when it comes to matter of general interest, all differences of opinion are laid aside and everybody turns in to make the af- fair a success.
 So it was onlast Friday evening when Obman's Hall was filled with as happy and prosperous looking people as will be found in any community. Every body was in good humor and even the small boys gave up their seats to the ladies like little gentlemen. When the curtain went up at S:45 the house was packed, and the chorus, 'Nancy Lee," by dozen young ladies of Douglas, all dressed in white, open ed tbe entertainment.
 MT. Haman was suffering from se- were cold and sore throat, so Judge | Gillette took his place with Mrs. Gould in the beautiful soprano and tenor duet, "Home to Our Mountains"
 After this Judge Gillette sang solo, ''The Day is Done," in very artistic manner which pleased his hearers and established his reputation as a vocalist.
 Then followed the "Courtship Under Difficulties" in which Homer Dona- ghey as Snobbleton-a mischief maker succeeded in convincing MT, Jones (M. c. Howell) that the object of his affections was very deaf. Miss Pru- dence (Katherine Spiers) was likewise informed of the lack of hearing on the part of Jones. The love making scene that followed was Iudicrous in the ex- treme
 A tableau, Japanese Tea" and a beautiful solo by Mrs. Gould came next.
 DThe Fortune Teller" comic quar- tette by Mrs. Ross, Mrs. Gould, MT. Ha- man and Judge Gillette, was one of the best things of the evening and brought forth hearty applause.
 A solo by A. Ohman and duet by Mrs. Gould and Mrs. Ross, followed by a pantomime performance by Messrs. Howell and Haman and Miss McKanna completed the programme.
 Dancing, which continued until 4 a. m., followed. An elegant supper was served by the ladies at Odd Fellows Hall.
 As we said before, everybody joined in making the entertainment success both socially and financially.
 Mir. Oscar Ohman, who is one of our enthusiastic, go-ahead citizens, donat- ed the use of the hall.
 Mir. Sam Gius, on of the most liberal of our citizens, and proprietor of the Douglas Opera House, sacrificed his own business by giving up his music ians for the evening.
 The music was furnished by an or chestra composed of the following gen. tlemen, who rendered the service for the good of the cause: Profs. Miller, Fulmer, Fremont and Fosnet. Every one was loud in their praise of the music.
 Mrs. Gould, who had charge of the entertainment, is surely entitled to much praise for her painstaking care so manifest in every detail. And the la dies who assisted her are also deserv- ing of special mention.
 ! After all incidental expenses were paid there still remained the neat sum of Sl3O.9O. which was turned over to | MT. P. H. Fox, treasurer of the Douglas Island Chamber of Commerce.

Churchill will probably return to Pinein few weeks. In conversation with the News man he stated that the Atlin. country is now just as far developed as it would have been a year ago under more favorable circumstances.

The smallest one in the bunch was worth over s4. He said, however, that he was satisfied that the main body of the deposits of gold in that section had not yet been found. He intimated that there was a surprise in store for those interested in that country"

Yesterday afternoon a large whale was seen making its way up the channel toward Juneau to take look at the city which is half of the capital of Alaska. It foated along smoothly and happily, every now and then sending a spray of water high in the air. But the scene changed. The whale was overtaken by another monster of the deep (probably sent out by the jealous little town of Sitka) called whale thresher, which seemed to consist chiefly of long arms. But these arms were capable of terrible execution, as they were lifted above the water and brought down with a sound ing whack on the back of the inquIsi- tive whale. But his whaleship had heard so much. of the great resources of the town under the cliff that he was not to be deterred even by this vigor- ous Sitkan ambassador. He put on more steam, and with a snort of dis gust, again headed up the channel. But he counted too much on his powers of endurance, for the terrific blows from the thresher continued with surpris, ing regularity until the whale, with discouraged sigh, threw up his tail and sank into deep water to be seen no more.
 MT. J. M. Horridge left the first of the week for Sacramento, Cal, where he will build for himself a home and re- side in the future. He has been in the employ of the A. T. G.
