ChilkOOt Jack Decides to Re-
 main at Skagway

Chilkoot Jack, the only chief of the Jhilkats who resides north of kluk' wan, and who recently was urged by members of his clan to remove from Lynn canal to Sitka, there to assume his ancestral right to act as one of the big chiefs of the Thlinget tribe, has decided that he will remain in Skagway. Here he will build himself a home.
 This is Jacks country. He inherited the right to the use of the Chilkoot pass to the interior, and as such he was the first of the guides who pilo,ed white men to the headwaters of the Yukon waterway. Here is where he has established his friendships with the white race, whose friend he has been since his first contact with the early Yukon explorers more than 30 years ago.
 Jack will get lumber from Dyea, where he has houses, and remove it to Skagway. Here, under the suPervis- ion of his nephew, Sitka Sam, as mas ter earo, nter, he will erect a residence 3Ox2O feet in size and two stories high. He will make that his home for the re- mainder of his life.
