The mast is not mast in the
sense generally understood This
mast is built of four long lengths of
timbers to each section, forming
sort of long box with the pieces for
the corners, the inner portion being

shears were put to work hosting the

KELLEY NOW A MAJOR.

Capt. Kelley, master of the American
bark Mohican, has given his friends
something to do, and it's all over his
new title He is sea captain, and yet
mail recently arriving addressed to
him in care of Castle & Cooke. bears
the imposing military title of Major"
Kelley. Those who had a glimpse of
a long. official-looking envelope which
came the other day for Major Kelley,
racked their brains to know what it all
meant At first blush they were ready
to express their regrets that Kelley was
to leave the merchant marine service
for service on land, for he's one of the
popular shippers on the San Francisco
Honolulu route. And then they learn
ed that Captain Kelley had been APP
pointed a Major on the general staff
of the Canton OR Uniform Rank of the
Odd Fellow lodges. His commission
has arrived and when the local Can
ton receives it's new uniforms, swords
and regalia from the mainland, Major
Kelley is to be the installing officer.
This will be the first Canton to be
organized in the Pacific.

IS WHY
Conclusive R"a, OUs For Pat
 rOnizing Kjrm e

There are many reasons why we have been and are able to sell the best goods for the lowest prices, why we have always been and are now giving our customers the best bargains-the best articles-and at the same time return ing to them the most change. Not the least of these is the fact that we own our own store and stock and have no one with whom to divide the legitimate profits of the business.
 Our goods this year were personally selected in the best markets in the country for 6 trade that demands the best snd for which we have learned to cater. We have no money invested in dead stock upon which to earn interest All we ask is that our Christmas gifts-our sllverware, our cut glass, our china, our jewelry and all the null titude of things which we carry-be examined before you make your selec- tions. You will find them in good taste, modern, stylish, durable-in fact the very best obtainable-and they will be sold as cheaply as you can get them any place on earth. We are in Skagway to stay and mean to continue record of making 8 friend of every purchaser.

She alleges that she staked the Little creek claim may 15, 1901, and showed the notice of location to Brown, who was her confidential adviser. He ad- vised her that the claim would not be open to location until Jan. 1, 1902, and he told her that if she would not record the notice he would assist her to locate the claim on Jan. l. In violation of his agreement, she alleges, he fraudulently and unlawfully located the claim in his own name Jan. l, 1902.

TALE OF TWO DOGS
Wherein the Better Side of Canine Character is Demonstrated by
 az FOur.f0oted Heroine.

Bruno is just common inside dog, of uncertain lineage and weighted with years. His life work has been that of "wheeler" in the \. C. mail team. Ii ist between he and Betsy, likewise of native ancestry, the fact can not now be established
 Be that as it may, Bruno departed up river with Mail Carrier Paul Schultz Oct. l9, while Betsy busted herself in providing for family of pups under a plank walk
 Just after daylight Oct ? great howl ing across the river attracted attention and when people looked there they saw Bruno running up and down the waters edge and evidently wanting to come across. Presently be was in the water and coming. It is thought he got in by accident: he iS too wise a dog to under take to swim almost quarter of a mile of freezing water designedly.
 Bruno struggled bravely and cried out to make his distress known. For more than twenty minutes he kept up the fight; and as he sank lower in the water and his cries became weaker his case seemed hopeless.
 But as he neared tlc wall of ice on the homeward shore Ed Bicde,man and Harry Callham ran down with the in- tentiou of trying to help him. Just then Betsy scampcre,l by and stood on the edge of the ice; and when Bruno got in reach she caught him by the neck and pulled. Bruno was heavy, and she braced herself and tueged with an her might before he was hauled out. Bruno was too tIr gone to stand; but Betsy pulled him and shook him till he could walk little. and then she went back tu her babies. She used io belong tn Jim Isugt,r,l, but Ed Biedclman claims her new.

DATES IN DOUBT
Published Figures of the Opening of the Yukon Open to
 Question.

There are some who declare the dates of the opening of the Yukon for the years 1898 and 1899 have been errone- ously printed in the papers. Here is the way the record has been printed:
 1S9S-Opened May p; closed Oct. 27
 1S99-Opened May l9; closed Nov. 6.
 1900-Opened May l5; closed Nov. 3.
 190l-Opened May 24; closed Nov. 8.
 1o02-Opened May 2l closed Nov. 9.
 1903-Opened May 10; closed Oct, 24
 l904-Opened May II; closed Nov. II.
 l905-Opened May l6; closed Oct. 29.
 Dr. J. II. Hudgin thinks the dates as set down for the opening in 1898 and 1899 are both wrong. He gives the opening in 1898 as May 17 and in 1899 as May 22. The record for 1898 he set down from hearsay after his arrival here that summer, but since then he has kept it according to his own observation. The other dates are correct as published, as shown by his record.
 Now if anybody can produce data to either verify or refute the doctors figures let it be made known, so that q true record may be preserved.

 for Winter Mining.

 of Nov. 3 were the Council City News of Sept. g, the Nome Nugget of Sept, 20, 23 and ?, and the Nome Gold Digger of Sept g They were the latest newspa pers to arrive in this camp from inside or outside of Alaska exceptingea a new publication recently sprung at Panama and the excellent Fairbanks News of Sept. g.
 Much matter of interest was included in the Council City and Nome papers.
 The Nugget announces the receipt of a Mergenthaler machine and other inn provements to the plant on which it has heretofore contrived to print modern newspaper The Gold Digger has been using Mergenthaler for some months. The Council City News, of course, is not 50 pretentious, but looks prosperous nevertheless.
 Cold weather set in Sept. l2 and the Nugget estimates that the seasons crop of gold has been cut short at least a million dollars. In the Solomon River country miners refused to take the cold weather as actual winter and were stick ing to their work in anticipation of a warm spell.
 Roy Davenport returned from kotze- bue Sept. ? and reported the keewalik river frozen over tight, with 100 tons of freight at keewalik, where it would have to remain until it could be sledded to Candle, unless warm spell opened the river. Candle creek promises to be cx tremcly active this winter and big cleanup is expected next spring.
 The Nugget says that the volume of winter mining work will be greater than ever before in the history of seward peninsula. The demand for steam boil CTS has been unprecedented.
 X strike was made in the Penny River section last May, but news of the strike was carefully guarded for considerable time. The best pay is located about 100 feet from the beach, between Gold Bug and Jess creeks, and is nearer Gold Bug than Jess. Layers of black and Ruby sand are found pcrmeating the paystrrak. and these layers are rich in god but, a- k usually thccasc, the best pay k found on bedrock. The limit of the best pay seems to be at 100 feet from the beach The Council City News says the strike k authentic; that as high a~ $50 pans have been taken ont. but the richest payi- confined Co a small streak of about au inch in thickness on the bedrock.

Pets the Sailors Jov.

Animal pets have ever been a great
Joy to the average sailor. There is
hardly a ship afloat that does not car
ny one or more such little favorites, to
Whom the crew are universally kind.
More than this, there is frequently de-
veloped an attachment between men
and animals that is seldom to be seen
on shore; and the intelligence dis
played by these animals often far ex-
ceeds the wonderful stories we some-
times see in print. On men-of-war
there is probably more consideration
shown the crew in this regard than on
merchantmen; at all events, you will
lind there many more ships pets. 1t
is by no means uncommon to see upon
the same deck a dozen or more we'll

OUR Vandiver, as Insurance
Superintendent, in his execution
OF the law enacted by a sover-
eignO State, has been restrained
by a Federal Judge; in effect told
to go way back and sit down until
he hears further. There is too
much Federal interference with
matters pertaining to the States
and rightfully subject to State
regulation; but this has gotten to
be so old a song that the present
generation gives him who sings it
the laugh of commiseration and
contempt. In the present in
stance, however, l am shedding no
tears. | believe that the insur-
ance company which Mr.. Vandi-
yer has sought to preclude, under
the law, from doing business in
this State, is morally unfit; is dis
honest and corrupt, and its pres
ent management should be wiped
out, as the courts have destroyed
many another grating gang of
swindlers. All this | believe from
the testimony forced from the lips
of the grafters themselves. But
there is a wrong as we'll as a right
way to suppress wrong doing, and
sometimes the evil we eliminate is
less hurtful than the means used
in its suppression. l don't like
one-man power in public affairs,
for instance. 1t is easy to make a
law creating an Office and giving
to the official the power to correct
a certain abuse or wrong, without
the intervention of trial and full
and fair hearing and condemna-
ton by a jury of qualified citizens,
lLO uOW pIOCSSS 10 oWlIU duu sure,
but by no means secure to the
rights of men charged with wrong
doing. There is too much oppor-
tunity in it for oppression and
favoritism. The absolutism at
taching to the head of the Fraud
Order Office at Washington is
heretical to a government of the
people by the people, and is
dangerous to the commonest rights
of the citizen. So l say of the In
surance Department of Missouri
it's capability for wrong far ex-
ceeds the evil results of robbery
and grating. The latter robs me
of my purse which may be re-
placed tomorrow; while the for
mer threatens my patrimony O.
liberty descended from those who
acquired it with the expenditure
of blood and life.
