Peter Mcintyre.

After an illness of some months du' ration, in fact we might say years, Peter Mcintyre passed to his long rest, at St. Ann Hospital, Juneau, on Tuesday Dec. 1st. He was born in the county ot Cavan, Ireland, and was 67 years old when he died. The funeral services will be held from the Catholic church, on Thursday, Dec. 3d, at 1:30 o'clock p. m. Rev. Father Bougis, s. J., officiating Interment at the Douglas cemetery Peter Mcintyre first came to Douglas Island during the early summer of the year 1886. In 1887 he made trip to the Yukon country, since which time he has made his home continuously in Douglas. Although "Pete," as he was familiarly called, bore the outward ap- pearance of sour, crusty and grabbed old man, those who got to know him found that this was but his outward shell. He was really kind hearted and honest to fault. For years, unClI ne became too feeble to give it attention, his little garden was his pride and joy. The vegetables he raised were precious beyond price; money could not buy them. But if he chose to give them away, he did it with lavish band. Of his relatives and life previous to coming to Douglas, very little is known. He is supposed to have brother somewhere in Illinois. Perhaps shadow or dis appointment had crossed his path and it was forgetfulness that he sought in coming to Alaska. Who knows? Those who knew him as he was, will walk be- hind the corse, and drop tear of re- gret into the open grave.

The Eagles are noted for the good times they have when they gather to- gether, and Aerie No. IF, of Douglas, is no exception to the rule.
 Last Sunday afternoon they had a social session at their hall in Douglas, to which they invited their friends on both sides of the channel.
 They had program on which were some of the best people in their line in this part of Alaska. There was fine five piece orchestra, which furnished the music for the occasion. The fun reached it's height when they all united in dancing the Monterey. The affair broke up late in the afternoon and the Eagles had strengthened their reputa- tious as entertainers.

SELLING TOO CHEAP.
And Audrain Farmers May
See When It's Too
Late.

DR.. I. j. Sullivan of Saline
county says farmers in that vicin-
ity are selling their land to Iowa
and Illinois men at $50 to $50 an
acre because they paid only $l5 to
$50 for it, and cannot resist the
temptation to double their money.
He says thru the columns of the
Rlater Rustler, that this is mis-
take. If the land is worth $50 to
an Iowa man, it is worth the same
to you. Stop and figure a little
before you sell your homesteads,
situated in the richest valley in
America. Suppose you have 100
acres and sell at $50, you will have
So, 900 at 5 per cent. Your income
will be $3.50 minus taxes, $75 at
1% per cent on cash, or $l75, On
the other haud farm your own
land, and low average on $50
land in Saline county is so bush
els of corn at 30 cents, fodder with
late pasture with rye, turnips or
pumpkins, SO or $1s; or 80 bu. of
wheat at 60 cents, straw and pas
ture, 30 or $2li or clover, two
crops of 3 tons each at So or $50.
Now take off one-third for taxes
and expenses you have an income
Of 81, 200 to $2.4OO on the 100
acres, equal, at 5 per cent, to $25. :
600 to $50, 900 or $3.50 to $500
an acre, the real earning ealue OF
your land, and three decades from
now YOU viii see it selling for that
price.

DRANK sLoP.
But Had Drunk ''SIOp" Be-
fore, It Would
Appear.

The MESSAGE has referred to
the item below before-which is
the substance of a dispatch from
Monroe City to the st. Louis Re-
public but we did not state that
she lived herei she is not known in
Mexico. The following is quoted
from the Paris Mercury:
Mrs. Annie Ewald, of Mexico,
Mo-. while waiting for a train at
Paris last night, asked the agent
for a drink of water and was di-
rected to a bucket in dark cor
ner. After swallowing half a
glass of the contents of the buck et
she became very ill, but got on the
train. When the train arrived
here she was in a semicOnscious
condition. She was put in car
riage and driven to the Ely Hos
pital. She may die, she had swal-
lowed diluted vitriol used iu cleo
tric batteries.
The facts of the case are as fol-
lows:
The woman, accompanied by
two Young men. landed in Paris
on the late local Friday night, the
woman begging enough money to
carry herself and male friends to
Monroe. Marshal Thomas says
she was drinking and that he or
dered all of them to leave, making
them remain at the depot until the
Wabash train came. The woman
asked night agent Moore for a
drink of water and he directe her
to the bucket just inside the
freight room. Underneath the
bucket on the floor was a slop keg,
but in it was no vitriol water, as
the batteries are always washed
outside. Tie Ewald woman drank
some of the slop and nausea fol-
lowed. She was given whiskey by
her friends and as a result was
very much "sicker" when she
struck Monroe. She has safely re-
covered.

the farmers could take their great
est ease by putting their land in
grass. From 20 acres in 1901 b e
sold timothy seed and hay to the

did some better. In the former
year timothy seed was worth SO

worth only half as much. In Mis-
