THE SLOCUNl
DISASTER

written for the West Virginian.l
The fatal craft steamed from It's pier.
On the bosom Of the ocean;
The people cheered waved land
good by,
AS the S1ocum rolled in motion.
They little thought on board t!aaF
craft,
such awfui death could hover,
For mothers, fathers and children
For young betrothed and lover
But OH, Alas. within its hold.
BY pot of fat DER turning.
y thousand souls went up 70 Goa
From drowning and from Burning
The flames rushed Wild aoou; her
deck,
From every hatchway strenmins:
Mothers with babes, srali children
Wreathed in flames and screaming.
charred human forms fell from her
Into the briny ocean
Like flaming firebrands thrown Ger
board
But still she kept in motion.
That monster. death. looked on and
smiled,
And needed not their wailing;
But cried, .Ho, Ho.' and smiled
again,
AS their forms fell from the rail-
That toiIing father at his work,
Was of his loved ones thinking;
He little thought of the awful death.
His darling ones were drinking.
., death, why wilt thou lay thy hand
So heavily on one place?
But CLEAN thy flowers from fields
abroad
Not homes like this erase?
Says death: why shouldst tho!
question me,
Thou mortal lump of clay?
It's Gods own way of doing things.
Thou silouldst have naught to say
And don't you know that every one
Belonged to God above?
VINO takes them at his own good "ill
And does it all in love2"

MACDONALD RESIGNS.

Joseph Macdonald, who has been manager and superintendent of the famous "Treadwell" properties on Douglas Island for the past four years, has resigned, and Mr. Robert A. Kinzie has been appointed his successor.
 Mr. MacDonald's resignation was given because of his physical condi- ton, he having labored necessarily for the last thirty years, now feels that he has earned a rest. He will go at once to Hot Springs, Ark, where he will endeavor to get rid of a rheumatic trouble that has bothered him for years. He will spend some time on the Atlantic coast, after which he will return again to Alaska to look after his extensive mineral holdings here.
 Mir. Kinzie, the new superintendent, has been Mir. MacDonald's assistant for nearly four years, and is thoroughly conversaut with every detail of the big mines.
 The new recreation building at Treadwell was thrown open last night for the first time, and about 400 of tho employees of the company gathered in the large social hall to say good bye to MT. Macdonald. Dr. 1. II. Moore, on behalf of the employees of the Alaska TreadwelI, Alaska Mexican and Alaska United Gold Mining Companies, pre- sented the retiring superintendent with a miniature gold brick, made of gold taken from the mines. It was about 3l5 inches in length, 2}s inches wide and an inch thick, and was enclosed in a neatly made wooden case. It's value was just $1,OO0.
 Mir. Macdonald thanked the men for the present and the expression of their kindly feeling, and said that he hoped they would extend the same feeling of good fellowship to his successor, MT. Kinzie.
 Short speeches were made by Supt. Kinzie and Mir. F. w. Bradley, after which every man in the house came forward and grasped the hand of MT. Macdonald and wished him safe jour- ney, and a speedy return to good health and Alaska.
