the cause of considerable contention.

binding, even if It's his, which he denies.
The plaintiff was represented by At

when he was arrested. John Bassel rep
resented the defendant. There was some
doubt in the mind of Mr.. NIcGec as 70
what night the check WAS cashed, and he
did not know whether Hose endorsed i
in his saloon or not at the time he e'cslsh-
ed it, but he was positive that Hose ,'ls
the one who received the money on il.
although he was stranger to him.

at the time. HOsc having denied the IN

 Will you put us on the shore, captain dear?
 And we'll tease you no more, captain dear.
 We must on that glacier stand, SC please do let us land, It will be so very grand, captain dear. CHORUS. Goodbye, Alaska, we must leave you And we'll never see your shore; But the memory of Brady glacier l will remain with us evermore. | Now our trip is nearly ended,
 And we may ne'er meet again; So three cheers. for the captain
 And his officers and men. So the boats were ordered out, captain
 dear,
 And the passengers gave a shout, cap-

 It was all right then we knew, captain dear.
 Chorus
 So we mounted on their backs, captain
 dear;
 And we looked like miners packs,

 But we reached that glacier grand, And on it we did stand.
 We were a happy band, captain dear , Then we turned our footsteps home
 captain dear!
 And o'er clay banks we did roam, cap

 The boats in mud were mired, And, oh, we were so tired;
 Still we got what we desired, captai

In this state she has been ministered
to by Father Magri OF the Catholic
church.
