 He did it all right: took away from Ketchikan. one of her most charming young ladies to add to the presump- lively meager society of Wrangell whose gain is distinct loss to Ketchi kan.
 The Sentinel says that long felt want of Wrangell is to be supplied now, by the completion of the townsite survey by the younger Whitfield, whose father has been unable, by reas- on of protracted i'll health, to com plete the work.
 They tell Us that a hobo was ar- rested in Juneau, recently for carry ing jimmy in his pocket. He was released when he proved that he car ried it for the purpose of opening the biscuits given him in that town.- = Wrangell Sentinel.
 Peter c. Jensen, former Mayor of Wrangell, is soon to undertake jour- ney to his old home in Germany, which he has not revisited for many years.

 The Cordova Alaskan Katalla cor respondent in noting the fact that a coal mine operator had contracted the delivery of 300 tons of coal to the Ka- talla company says: ''The first scow load was brought down late Saturday night in tow of the launch Imp. While crossing the bar, a short dis tance from the city wharf, the tow line broke, leaving the seow of coal to the mercy of the waves. A heavy sea was running at the time and tine scow with her 30 tons of cargo was washed onto the rocks. The entire cargo was total loss and the scow badly wreck ed. Such is the condition of Katalla's harbor at the present time. y That correspondent could not have been q Katalla man, or he would not have given the harbor of his home town that kind of a jolt.
 On Saturday afternoon some Indians brought into town about eight gallons of wild strawberries which they had gathered down the bay. They were, as all wild strawberries are, of fine flavor and quite large. They were a sight that would have been a surprise to people living in the states who be- leve this a land of icebergs and polar bears. -Cordova Alaskan.

 ed At four o'clock this morning. Consul MoriGaWa appeared before the Canadian officials with an urgent re- quest that the militia be called out immediately and placed in position to protect the Japanese quarters, which the white strikers were threatening to set on fire. At meeting of the anti-Asiatic League, 8 great deal of excitement aud bitter feeling was manifested, and it was openly decided to use violence if the officials attempt any interference with the meeting al- ranged for Thursday night and which has been ordered by them not to be held. The l. 1or problem at present seems no nearer solution than at any time since the trouble began. The officials are doing their best to main- tain orderly conditions, but the feeling of animosity and hatred is intense, and needs but little provocation to precipitate murder and arson.
