PIRATE IN THE SOUND.
sloop Doroda Brought Into Newport Heavy With Loot.
CAPTURE SOLVES MANY MYSTERIES
Police on Track of Assaiiant of Mrs. MorrilI and May UnrayeI Disap- Dearance of olga Maxwell.
 Hot After Jackson.

NEWPORT, R. l., Oct. 24.-Sheriff James Anthony has asked the police of all the neighboring cities to help him capture Henry Allison Jackson. He says Jackson is the river pirate who, with another man, lied from the sloop Doroda, which Deputy Sheriffs De Biois and Harvey have captured in Narragansett bay.
 The Doroda was captured as the re- suit of complaint made by Ferdinand A. Cornell, who telephoned the sheriff's office that the sloop had been seen go- ing up the bay with his stolen launch in tow. The two deputies put after her in the tug Solicitor, and as they drew near the skipper warned them off with a double barreled shotgun, which he waved defantly.
 The deputies then went to the naval coaling station for firearms, and when they resumed the chase the occupants of the sloop took to small boat and, landing at Portsmouth. escaped. The Doroda was then brought here.
 The pirate yachts was found laden to the gunwales with plunder from a series of robberies of the great summer mansions along Long Island sound.
 The hunt among the quantities of sil. verware, handsome gowhs, household goods and pawn tickets for jewelry is expected to lead to important clews in connection with the mystery behind the shooting of Mrs. Walter c. Morrill, at her home in Greenwich, Conn, by a burglar interrupted at his work and also of the disappearance of the Bon ner safe containing $25,0O0 worth of jewels at Stamford.
 From the marks on the various sil- verware and from other means of iden- tlfcation the police have gathered in- dubitabie evidence that the Doroda was used during the summer as a cruising fence" by burglars engaged in systematic robbery.
 One singular discovery occurred in the search of the yacht. This was a visiting card of Miss Olga Maxwell who disappeared last July at the same time as Midshlpman Robert L. Jack son of the battleship Missouri
 It has been learned that the yacht left Atlantic City early in the season. cruised along the coast under various names assumed to avoid being fol lowed, and finally made her way into Long Island sound just at the time that Nirvana. the Bonner home. was robbed and when masked burglar broke into the Morrill, home. shooting Mrs. Mor- Till and beating Isabelle Burns.
 The supposed owner of the Doroda is Henry Allison Jackson of Taunton, Mass. Immediately after the boat was seized a warrant for hls arrest was is- i sued

Old Conductor Tells of Wreck of the
 Moody and Sankey Train.
 Thomas NJ. Elmer, an old time rail road conductor, spent the summer at Winsted, sleeping every night in tent because he regards it as beneficial to his health. He Is 7S years old and was at one time a conductor on the old Hartford X Connecticut Western road. He had charge of the train which in returning from a Moody and Sankey meeting in Hartford one night in January, 1878, crashed through the Tariffville bridge.
 MT Elmer left Winsted last Thurs day for New York to spend the winter with his son, who is also a conductor. Wednesday night, on the eve of his de- parture, a party of his friends gave him sort of surprise party at the Lakeview inn. when he entertained them with the story of the accident. The train was full of passengers and many were killed Mir Thomas related that wien the disaster happened the people in the car where most Of the deaths occurred were singing Shall We Gather at the River?"

 and Frightening People.
 James Johnson, a rancher living near Cornox, seven miles from Cumberland, B. C., reports several Mowglis, or wild men, who have been seen in that neigh borhood by ranchers, says a Nanaimo B. O correspondent of the San Fran cisco Call. Johnson asserts that they were performing what seemed to be ( sort of ''sun dance" on the sand. One of them caught a glimpse of Johnson, who was viewing the proceedings from behind big log. The Mowglis disap- peared as if by magic into big cave.
 Thomas Klncsid. a rancher living near French creek, while bicycling from Cumberland, also reports seeing . Mowgli, whom he describes as pow erfully built man, more than six feet in height and covered with long black hair. The wild man upon seeing Ksa- caid uttered a shriek and disappeared into the woods. Upon arriving home Kincaid wrote Government Agent Bray of Nanaimo. inquiriDg if it would be lawful to shoot the Mowgli, as he was terrorizing that vicinity.
 The government agent replied thar there was no law permitting such an act. It is reported that on a recent hunting expedition up the QuaiIieum river an Indian saw a Mowgli and, mis- taking him for a bear, shot at and wounded him. During the past month no less than eleven persons coming to Nanaimo from Cumberland have seen the wild men Parties have been or ganized. and every effort is being made to capture the Mowgssz.

 T hope the good people of Washing ton will be good to this little house. We need your support. We are hand ful of men fighting a great trust.

On the last trip of the Cottage City, north, the old steamer laid at the Wrangell dock for four hours and then anchored at the lower end of the Wrangell Narrows for sev- eral hours more waiting for tide that would enable her to pass over the rocks of the snake-like channel through that eighteen miles of a narrow passage. On her return trip the vessel laid tied to the dock at Juneau from 9 o'clock in the evening until , o'clock the next morning for the same reason. In other words she lost not less than twelve to fifteen hours. Figure this lost time at 12 miles per hour and she was standing still while she could have made 1S0 miles, or 30 miles more than the distance from Wrangell to Juneau. 1hls could be easily remedied, With a channel through the seven miles of sand of the Dry Straits, vessels need not lie at any point longer than time sufficient to land passen- gers and discharge freight. More than that they will save about Y miles each way by straight shoot to Frederick Sound instead of mak- ing the roundabout circuit now nec- essary. Transportation companies and the government should wake up to a realization of the situation and make an effort to remedy this existing barrier to navigation by improving the Dry Straits.

to have effective work done by delegate in congress, he must go there backed up by absolute au thority from his district, and that can only be given through organi- zation of the people. The "Pan- handle of Alaska" (Southeastern Alaska), is as well prepared for statehood today as she will be ten years from now; and MT. Lacey and other members of the law making body who have visited this section, this season, can add new laurels to their crowns by insisting that Alaska be placed where she properly belongs among the list of states and that her citizens be giy- en the same right to govern them- selves that is accorded other Amer jeans no more competent to man. age their own internal affairs Then, and not until then, do we believe that delegate in congress would make even respectable fig ure-head.

The trim little city of Juneau is making no great pretensions in the development line, and yet man after being away few months can see great improvement. In the business center, the large and com- modious block erected by Caro X Go the palatial Odd Fellows build ing, the solid foundation of the Elks' building all add largely to the general appearance of the town while the residences of marshal Shoup and others and the new hos pital building on the outskirts, give the town an appearance of perma nency that must be highly satisfac- tory to every resident and business man of the place. And there is no reason why it should not be a good town. A good town site, situated in the center of one of the best mining districts on the coast, with varied industries creating substan. tial pay rolls, with good schools and an atmosphere of morality, there is nothing to check her future prosperity. In other words, in the opinion of the SENTINEL, outside of Wrangell, Juneau is by far the best town in Alaska.

Representative Lacey, of Iowa,
 is in Alaska, and has been inter- viewed as to his opinion of the dis trict. He says he is well pleased
 with Alaska and is here to study affairs to better assist in legisla- ton. q believe already, and al- ways have advocated, that Alaska should have delegate in congress. She is entitled to representation as fundamental principle in a rep, resentative government" he said. Of course this is very kind of the gentleman, and Alaskans appreci- ate his evident good will. But we believe that if the gentleman will study the matter thoroughly he will agree with us that a delegate in congress from Alaska, without some organized body behind him, would be fully as useless as the fifth wheel to a wagon. In order
