They are both gradu- ates of the Academy of Toronto, Cana da, being members of the same class. They have fitted up an office in the building east of the Douglas Pharmacy. Dr. Wood has been made the attending physician at St. Ann's Hospital. We are glad to welcome these gentlemen to our city.

Judge John F. rliIler.

Judge John F. Miller was in town last Sunday, the guest of the senior editor and family. He was passenger on the Topeka for his home after an absence of eleven months at Dawson. He came from Dawson to Bennett alone save his dog team, and reports pleas ant trip.
 The Judge was interviewed when he didn't know what was going on. But the substance of his statement was that it was very quiet in Dawson, some min CTS working for fifty cents per hour and board; that the output of the mines, however, would exceed that of last year by more than five million dollars. Quite a number have started for Nome, in fact they have been going in that direction since last November, but has not heard of any one getting through. He thinks it very unwise for any one to undertake to get to Nome by way of Dawson over the ice.
 Judge Miller has just returned from his third trip into the interior and knows what he is talking about. He was prosecuting attorney for King county for four years and is good law yer and an honest, upright man, having made record as a public prosecutor that the men who followed him might we'll be proud of. His convictions in- clude Friedrich, Nordstrum, Wilcox, Cramer, Krug and score of other high grade criminals.

Washlngton's Birthday.

Mir. Philip F. Thom assisted by Miss Jennie Jordan, and some of the best local talent, will give refined vaude- vile performance at Ohman's Hall on the evening of the 22nd inst, (Wash- ington's Birthday, This entertainment promises to be one of the most attract i've of the season and will merit the patronage of our people. MT. Thom is an artist in high class vaudeville and is giving the details of this performance his careful attention. Miss Jennie Jor- dan needs no introduction to Douglas people. Her success in the manage ment of "Only a Country Girl" given for the benefit of the Fire Department last Christmas night, was remarkable. The performance will be strictly first class, and up to date in every respect.

A Strong Company.

The opera house was we'll filled last evening to witness the opening perform ance of the season, and those present were we'll paid for their attendance.
 One of the leading favorites for the first nighters was J. H. Burns who with his natural Scotch brogue appeared to make hit. Burns is not only clever comedian but also a clever stage man. W. R. Ogden and Chas. Howard acted their respective parts in their usual professional manner and won much applause. The other members of the company were also we'll received, and all are very clever. r. Montrose, as the captain, looked so natural that he made the hit of the evening, and is seriously thinking of going into legitimate com edy work.-Daily Dispatch.

Alaska Homesteads.

It seems strange that the Juneau con- vention never mentioned the fact that Herman, the Commissioner of the Gen. eral Land office, set the act of congress aside that permits homesteads of 80 acres to be taken in this district. Un- der the department rulings, if you pay speculators from ten to fifteen dollars an acre, you can get scrip that will buy the land, but the poor man is cut out of his homestead right. This matter ought to be investigated. What explan- ation have the Douglas delegates for this oversight?

When The Cut Is Made.

It is a common thing to observe that merchants advertise cut prices on goods. The Treadwell store makes the cut when the goods are first received. All the merchandise in that mammoth establishment is bought in large lots with a spot cash discount, and with no wharfage and low freight rates, the Treadwell people can undersell any thing in Alaska and are doing it, too. Have you ever seen the line of ladies' dress goods, or in fact everything a woman needs at that place? On mems wear it beats everything. If you want the best at the lowest prices go to Treadwell.

The Foundry.

How they ever got along forsome ten years at Treadwell without foundry the employees cannot understand, for it is turning out lots of work, not only for the company, but for others as well. The largest casting that the foundry has thus far made was an amalgamat- ing barrel which without ends weighed one ton. The orders for the Treadwell people alone keeps them busy all the time and with outside demands, there is more work than the foundry can do. Mir. Alexander Thom is the foreman, and is an expert.

The ImperlaI Stock company.

Next Friday evening the people of Douglas City will have an opportunity of attending a frst-class entertainment in Ohman's Hall. The Imperial Stock Go. will give family entertainment at which the popular play THE VEN DETTA will be produced. It will be remembered that The Vendetta was played before Juneau audience some time ago and the highest praise was bestowed upon the troupe that pro- duced it. It was the talk of Juneau for week or more.
 Added to this play, between the acts, specialties will be introduced by Frank and Edith Montrose, which alone will be worth the price of admission. These two people are whole show by them selves. Edith Montrose sings beauti- fully and the Douglas people will now have an opportunity of hearing her.
 We trust our people will patronize this entertainment for it is the inten- ton of the company to introduce Hazel Kirke in two weeks if the patronage of the Islanders will justify.

PART THIRD.
At The Yakima.

The News man visited the Yakima mines last Monday. They are located
 back of the Mexican mill and a good easy trail leads up to them. Supt. Ha. man has managed to do a large amount of work this season and it is the right kind too. The main shaft which is 165 feet deep and is all lined with heavy timbers and a cross cut was started on Tuesday. The assays of the ore, for Douglas Island is a solid bed, develops a gold and copper proposition, the for mer predominating, and are perfectly satisfactory to the people who are put tingup the money for this work. It is the intention of the owners to build a second Treadwell. Why not? With a vein of ore 600 feet wide and probably a thousand feet in depth and running across the sixteen claims would keep the mills running for century or two.
 A number of buildings have been con- structed and Yakima is beginning to look like town. The machinery, which is giving the very best of satisfaction, is of the latest improved type. We pre- dict bright future for the Yakima company; we believe they have found the right man iu Mir. Haman.

Church News.

Douglas City has within its limits many church going people, which was fully demonstrated last Sunday at all the churches. At the Methodist 3 p. m. service at the Friends church there was assembled a fine congregation of intelligent people who were so quiet and attentive one could see they were deeply interested in the grand, glorious subject of the importance of the "Knowledge of Christ Jesus" so beauti- fully described in the language of Paul to the Philippians, third chapter and eighth verse: "Yea doubtless, for l count all things but loss for the excel lency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord"
 Dr. Irwin was at his best and preach ed an eloquent, inspiring sermon and one which will long be remembered and treasured up in the hearts of his listeners, and which will no doubt pro- duce good fruit.
 In the evening Rev. H. Hammond Cole preached to a good congreg ation a sermon on Agnosticism. Special men, tion might be made of the solo by Mrs. Cole which was enjoyed by all.
 The usual large congregation greeted Bro. Replogle on Sunday evening and were not disappointed, as they received the Word preached in the effective style of a consecrated, able minister. The work of Bro. Replogle is far reaching and no one knows the amount of good that has been accomplished by him in his special line of missionary work.
 The Congregational altar was made attractive Sunday evening by large boquet of calla lilies in full bloom, the gift of Miss Gilbert. They were from the yard of her sunny home in Califor- mia.
 The chorus choir of the Meth odist church has added the names of Messrs. Keeton, Hutzell and Lindstrom to it's list.
 There will be regular Methodist ser vices at 3 D. m. Sunday and at 7:45 on Tuesday evenings at the Friends church.
 We noticed Dr. and Mrs. Harrison in the congregation at the Methodist ser vice last Sunday. Come again.
 The familiar faces of Misses Ger trude and Catherine Spiers were gladly welcomed back among the Congrega- tional church goers.
 Rev Dr. Walters, Superintendent of Methodist Missions in Alaska, is spend ing the week in Juneau and visited Dr. Irwin and the News editors on last Monday.
 Rev. E. V. Smith of Juneau spent a pleasant evening among Douglas friends Monday.
 We cannot report the Episcopal ser vices, as we could not attend and have not heard from that denomination. We were told by one of their members recently that they have in contempla- tion the building of a church in Doug las, in the near future. Let the good work go on. There is room for all.
 Miss Thurlow, of Juneau, attended Methodist services Sunday, and was the guest of the News families.

At The Opera House.

The following appeared in the Daily Alaska Miner of Thursday, February l, 1900.
 Last evening the new Louvre troupe gave for the first time in Juneau the popular drama "The Vendetta" Much had been expected of the production and everyone in the crowd, which took every box, seat and foot of standing room, were more than satisfied with what they saw and heard. Manager Bean has certainly secured for the Vim Brothers, the best company that has yet appeared before Juneau audi ence. Following is the cast which was admirably rendered.:
