A. s. Dautrick, agent for the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, has re- ceived advice that owing to the back ward season in the eastern and middle states, the first tourist excursion, sail ing from Seattle yesterday, has not a full list. In view of this limited num- Der of passengers can be taken from Juneau for the round trip to Sitka. The Spokane will arrive next Friday. One day will be allowed at Skagway for a trip over the White Pass road at the usual reduced excursion rates; thence to Muir glacier and Sitka, returning to Juneau on June 2nd.
 Last Saturday evening the city off, cers, council and school board of Tread we'll, the Douglas school board, and Judge Delaney, of Juneau, were enter tained by the members of the Douglas council, at the old Odd Fellows hall. The hall was decorated with palms, flags, &c., for the occasion. A banquet table, extending diagonally across the hall, was spread with refreshments for the inner man. However, the best of the evening was the stories, speeches songs, &c., that formed an impromptu part of the program. It would be i'm possible to tell all that was said and done, but before the party broke up, daylight was stealing in at the windows. Those present were Supt. Joseph Mac Donald, Assistant Supt. k. A. Kinzie, Mayor Tubbs, R. J. Willis, James Chris toe, E. J. N. Ott, A. Thom, Thomas Noonan, H. H. Sterling and MT. Me- Cauley, of Treadwell, Judge A. K.

 Last Sunday evening the Pacific Coast S. $. Topeka crashed into the cor ner of the Douglas wharf and took nearly half of it with her. The Juneau Ferry $ Navigation Company have been making every effort for some time to get pile driver to begin the work of enlarging and repairing this wharf. This accident makes haste doubly nec- essary, and MT. A. w.

 Last Friday evening the home of Mir. J. M. Davis was discovered to be on fire. An alarm was sounded and the hose companies responded with alac- rity. It took over 1000 feet of hose to reach the fire from the nearest hydrant. The water was turned on and the flames, although they had gained con- siderable headway, were subdued; not, however, before the contents of the house had been pretty badly charred. The loss to Mir. Davis will amount to several hundred dollars worth of fur niture, clothing and pictures. The fire probably originated from defective stove pipe. The fire boys did their duty with vim that called forth many words of praise.
