BIG SALARIES
Tho Financier of New York. in discus

says:
.:.rhe lesson to be learned so far as
large salaries are concerned, is not that
extra agant reward is common on the

MEANS WELL.

A Juneau paper thinks it too bad that Gov. Brady could not have been associated in the Mckenzie affair, "so that some politician could get chance to hit him with political rotten egg" The faults of Gov Brady do not extend in that direction; and however much reason be may give the people for com plaint, he will never be found mixed up as a participant in any such dirty deal as the one alluded to. If it were the man, instead of the official, with whom it had to deal, the Mining Journal would have nothing but good words to say of Alaska's chief executive. His failings are of the head, not the heart. -Ketchikan Journal.

KILLIsNOO ITEMS.

can't write a long letter this time, as my time is all taken up. Angoon, the past two weeks, has been very busy place, and will be for the next two weeks. The Klukwan Indians arrived about twelve days ago, and there are Indians from six different tribes here. They have been dancing and feasting almost day and night for two weeks. I won't write up the carnival until it is all over, as so much going and coming in and out of the store, that I can't sit long enough to write more than line at time. an afraid the whole letter will be very disconnected, at best.
 We are getting heavy fall of snow. This is the third day it has showed most of the time, but the weather is not very cold, so we don't mind the snow.
 Last week Mir. and Mrs. Jones, of Douglas, came out on the Seaolin. Mir. Jones is going to cut logs for the saw mill at Douglas. Mrs. Jones stayed at our house while Ar. Jones and his partner, Mir. Peters, went up to the camp and set up their tents, so things would be more comfortable for the women. would rather be excused from tenting out in the woods in Alaska in the winter.
 We arc more comfortable this winter in our shack than last, although it cost us slOO for fuel last winter. This win ter we have a large coal stove and burn coal from our mine. It burns fine and we are as warm as though we lived in a fine house.
 On the 9th of this month MT. B. r. Brightman died of typhoid fever. He was sick not quite three weeks. He has a daughter and two sons in Maine. His body will be shipped back to his form CT homo there. He has been foreman of the oil and guano works at KiIlisnoo ever since they were started, about l6 years ago. He will be very much miss ed there, as he was competent man and always to be found at his post of duty. Capt. Brightman, his brother, will take bis place at the works.
 Ihear Killisnoo is very quiet at pres, ent. All the Indians are over here at Angoon. Where they all sleep is a mystery. But an Indian shack is much like a stage coaeh-always room for one more. There are about 400 Indians here at present
 If you will excass me this time, I will try and collect my thoughts better by the next dime the steamer comes.

GEoRGE D. ANDERSON.

Died, at Douglas Island, Alaska, Jan. s3Oth, 1901, George B. Anderson, aged IS years, 6 6months and 8 days.
 The startling news that came to us last week just before going to press proved to be only too true, and almost before the paper containing an account of the accident was printed the body of the unfortunate boy was found few rods away from the exploded magazine. With the exception of the injuries that caused his death the body was not bad ly mutilated.
 George k. Anderson was born at Bo- die, Cal, July 22nd, 1882. He came to Douglas when six years of age and at tended the public school in this city. He began work in the "7OO" mine about ! IS months ago, and was a general favor ite with all. While young in years, he was possessed of a splendid physique and performed the heavy miners work with ease and satisfaction to his em- ployers. The news of his death was a shock to everyone in the community.
 The funeral services were held at the Congregational church on Friday, Feb, lst, at 2:3O D. m., Rev. Fl. J. Gurr, of the Episcopal church officiating, It was perhaps the largest funeral ever held on Douglas Island. Jno. King, Frank Pierce, Chas. A. Fox, Peter Grsverock, John Graverock and Fred Carlson, schoolmates of the deceased, acted as pail bearers. A profusion of flowers, and floral pieces from Mrs. N. King, Mrs. Jno. Brevig and Mrs. Frank Bach decorated the casket.
 The deceased leaves a mother and father and a brother on Douglas Island and a sister in California to mourn his loss, and who have the sincere sympa- thy of the community in their sorrow.
 That the aged and infirm must in the natural course of events pass to the great beyond, is a source of grief and sorrow, but when a young man, full of the flush and vigor of youth, is sudden Iy taken we wonder why it should be thus. What words can sooth the pain that tear mothers heart? What can replace the image of the loved one? Nothing that this world can give, only the hope that all may share, that in a fairer, brighter land where pain and sorrow, never come there awaits us the spirits of our loved ones who have gone on before.
 sTo live in hearts we leave behind,
 Is not to die"

MEXICAN MIX-UPS.

Mir. J. c. Finley was on the sick list a few days the first part of the week as the result of getting slightly salivated during the January cleanup.
 Mir. John Kirwan was around Sunday shaking hands with the boys prior to his departure for San Francisco. Jack had trying time of it with the fever, but looks remarkably we'll for man so recently recovered. He, too, like oth CTS that have preceded him, had warm words of praise for the treatment he received at St. Ann's Hospital, and can well say when his mind reverts to his watchful attendants, "They charmed my life from the weapons of strife from the fever they charmed me-"
 Mir. William Rattray, "7OO" fireman, showed symptoms of la grippe Monday and went to the hospital at once for medical aid.
 Mir. E. Fl. McAuley as vanner expert in the Mexican, to use the Gen. Otis ex- pression, ''has the situation we'll in hand" Ernest is as much at home about Frue vauner as Paderwiski is when tuning piano.
 Mir. David Conklin is representing himself at the work and social board after succeeding in fighting off a very severe cold.
 Mr. Gene Hutsen, the "plumed knight" of the long handle spade, is under the weather with bad cold, or similarity exaggerated. Mir. Clay Tiff ner is trustee of his estate during the term of the said Gene's indisposition.
 Mr. S. W. Looney, an all-round mill man, is the latest addition to the Mexi- can force. This mill is undergoing a general overhauling since Mir. A. Mac kay got the reins of business in his fingers. Let the good work go on.
 The occupants of boarding house No. ?, but better known as Hotel de Lynch, were startled the morning of the 1st inss. by that terrible word, "Fire" It happened that the Japanese chef, with lavish hand, had an overindulgence of fat in the fire, which caused torch like flame to sweep up the pipe and ig- nite the sooe therein At it's first ap- pearance over the smokestaek a reflec- ton was noticed on the snow by some one inside, and followed confusion con- founded A stampede was then on in ! khe aRam Pasture that would make foot ball or lacrosse lock like child's play Hoses were run of reels, and full pressure turned on, and then the nozzles were given full swing to beat about in search of the blaze that was l nowhere to be found inside Steward

Lynch, however, soon restored order among the disturbed element, but not before some had given exhibitions in sleight of.hand tricks, rolling blankets, etc. Many took to the fire escape from the second floor, and in the attempt to reach the ground, quickly climbed to the roof and then jumped down. The rumor is hailed with pleasure that new building is to be erected for cook ing and dining, giving the present building up to sleeping quarters.
 Soon it may happen,
 That drowsy Jap,

 A stormy night,-
 And all will go up higher.

SOME scientist who hasn't dis
covered any planets for few days,
has discovered, SO he alleges and
affirms, that potatoes are the most
poisonous vegetable a human being
can surround. He says they con-
tain substance known as "solarin "
and is sure death to lovers OF
potatoes. OF course he does not
mean that it will kill a person on
sight or for few years, say forty,
or fifty, or sixty, but people who
persist in eating potatoes two or
three times day are all liable to
die before they reach the age Of 80
or 100. Personal observation
proves that.
