party in the Dominion parliament, IN
speaking of the Alaskan boundar y5 dispute,
said that he was still in favor of a propo-

seaport to Dawson City, and that the
Canadian parliament should pass a law
dealing with Americans mining in the

ter.ded that such a law need not imme-
diately be put into operation, but that i
should be left in the hands of the gov

HAPPY JACKS IN
PATROL WAGON

There was a funny time late yester-
day afternoon at the corner of Fort
and Hotel treets when a single native
policeman rounded up half dozen
drunken and fighting sailors. He held
one and jawed the rest, meanwhile
ringing for the patrol wagon. The sail
ors seemed anxious to have all that
was coming to them and when the go
cart of the mail delivery service came
ambling along they hailed it with glee
as the patrol. Finally the police We
hicle arrived and two sailors were
pushed aboard. The other four We're
ordered to climb but when they
boarded the big wagon the intelligent
policeman in charge kicked them off,
supposing they were just trying to catch
a ride. They walked away with an
injured air but, after explanations had
been made by the officer on the side
walk, they were called back and came
running, relief in every feature. The
last seen of them the happy crowd was
en- route to the police station.
