WIN FIRST
SkagWay Baseball Players
 Defeat Army Team

The Skagway baseball team won its first game of the season at Fort Will fam H. Seward yesterday, defeating the Third Infantry team by the circus score of 26 to 10. Two of their best players, Ed. Berry and Clarence Oelson, were injured at practice before the game began so they could not play.
 Clarence Oleson's right thumb was broken so severely that he will be un- able to play baseball this summer. It sustained a compound fracture. Ed. Berry's injury was not so severe and it is thought he will be in playing condi- tion next Saturday. His right-hand middle finger was damaged.
 There were 70 or 50 Skagwayans to go to Haines on the Peterson and Union yesterday to witness the ball game. They returned in the evening.

Mr.. Craig decided to cast his fortunes
in the Bee Hive state, where things In
the mining way were beginning to ;ook
up. He Immediately got into the cor

building of the Mammoth mill at Rob

the attention of Joseph Dederichs, and

REMARKABLE EXAMPLE
OF ONE-MAN POWER

Of all Of the mining operators who
have come into the limelight of pub
licity since the unprecedented activity
i'm the mining world. none has gained
his place among the successful man
ayers of these vast interests with
greater credit than ". j. Craig. He is
what may be called a real seIf-made
mining man, and one who in his ex-
perience has run the gamut of all that
a mining man has to go up against be
fore he can be said to be properly
equipped for the battle I'm this occupa-
ton.
The superficial view of a mining man
by the uninitiated is far different from
what mining man really is. 1t is al

who would be successful has got to
have a knowledge of what the profess
sional men he deals with In his bust
ness have got to know. He has got to
be an engineer and Outlines his own

Mr.. Craig has spent his apprentice
ship in the business, and there is not
branch of it with which he is not
thoroughly familiar. He knows a mine
from the stump to the collar of the shaft,
and he knows a piece of ore as we'll as
it can be known by look.
He is known throughout the state and
in the east where he has put through
at least one successful deal recently as
an active and safe mining operator.
Like the bankers, whose stock in trade
is ofttimes their word, which must be
as good as their bond, Mr.. Craig has
reputation as a scfe and sound man to
size up a property.
Early Training.
He got his early training in the min
ing field in tie most rugged of ali of
the camps-AlOntana. When he was 25
years of age he left his home in Sum-
NIT county, Ohio, and came west. He
went right into the heart of the min
ing world at the Drumlummon gold
mine at Marysvflle when that section
OF the country was in the raw, wild,
western stage. He fitted into the life

The vast extent of the rich copper
zone has never been deter mined. 1T ex-

The veins trend in a northeasterly and

be readily traced for miles. Discoveries
of copper have been made in the range

Some More Modern Pirates.

The oldtime sea rover who was wont
loot its cargo was regarded by all civil
lied nations as a criminal of the most
dangerous type If caught, he was
usually hanged along with his crew.
In these more peaceful days, observes
the New York Tribune, there are pir-
ates who prey on commerce, but they
are far less engaging TO the immigra-
ton Among them, as told elsewhere
in the Tribune this morning, may be
classed the trademark CRATER as
he is sometimes called, who, despite
the laws, still prospers. Instead of
holding up ship laden with merchan-
disc he attacks the business of some
other manufacturer, and by initiating
his rivals brand, the style and cover
of the packages in which the wares are
sold, and also by throwing out to the
public the bait of a cheaper price. he
diverts the revenues of his victim into
his own pocket.
So great has become the depreda-
tions of these land buccaneers that
American manufacturers are now ask
ing for national law which shall make

Washington which provides that the
maker of goods, which are articles of
Interstate commerce and which bear
labels in imitation of other brands
shall be liable to 81 900 fine or impris-
onment for two years, or both. The
manufacturer who fieeceS the public
by means of a counterfeit label is as
much a swindler as the green goods
man or the gold brick financier. If,
as the advocates of the bill assert, it
will be supported by the courts as con

How the Fiiipinos Received Mr..
BRYAN.

Little has been told in the press dis
patches of the magnificent reception
and triumphal progress of Hon. w. J.
Bryan in the Philippine islands. The
universal enthusiasm was astonishing
even to- its object. According TO FL

was driven through Paranyake. Las
Pinas and BakOOT: why do all the
people salute us? Do they treat al
Americans this way?''
These salutations are for you
answered prominent Filipino, be
cause they had been looking for your
coming These people do not know
you. but they know that you are here
and your name is loved
I'm fact, few names can be men
toned among the Filipinos that will
excite more sympathy. Bryan did not
need to come to be popular.
THE principal impression produced
by his presence. even among his chief
political adversaries, is one of con-
summate amiability and discretion.
Bryan has not made any public decla-
rationS nor expressed a judgment of
the Philippine administration. He has
not given the partisans pretext to ac-
cuse him If being an agitator, or I'M
patriotic IN view of the enterprises
that America, as nation is under
taking in these islands. His coming
has made a most grateful impression.
Without any ostentatious official char
acter, he receives consideration from
