 Some women of Nome have a society for the purpose of studying and consid. sring tho Alaskan Indian question. The scope of the sosietys work includes in- vestisatien sS 10 .he capacity of the Indians, their susceptibility to training, their habits, tsmperaments and industry, the m sthods of the missionaries in han. ding them and their progress under these methods. The society has devoted great deal of time to original research, and it has undertaken to care for many of the Indians in the neigh borhood of it. city. The result up to the present time of the society's investigations has been to reach the conclusion that the Indiana are a pal bls of being made self. sustaining and useful. But t is urged that they gre as children and sGaald have many years of training in the ways of civilization. The society fsvors the plan of having government agents over them to teach them to work, keep clean, build houses and husband their raaour ces. The result of the investigation of 'the women of Nome is & conclusion at which practical men who have lived long in Alaska, almost without excep- tion, have arrived. Its soundness Is sttested to by the success of the Hetls- kahtls Indians, where the methods rec. commended have been given practical exemplifcation.

WHU KNOWS
 THE WOMAN?
Story Which May Be Interesting to Old Time WrangeIl
 Citizens

The following appeared in the P.-I. of January 13, and may be of interest to some of our readers:
 "The Princess of Wrangell, an Indian girl who embraced civilization and also Christianity at the same time when she married Dr. Kenneth McAlpine, former ly of Butler, Pa., where his parents, wealthy society people, still live, has tired of her bonds and longs again for the free old days in the tepees by the great northern glaciers.
 To divorce judge at Butler, Pa, last week she told her story, alleging that her husband. after he married her, had stayed in the house for weeks at time, and usually in bed.
 The few patients be had, she says. he lost, and the hut. which cost but one dollar s month to rent, was so cold and drsary, ehe declares, that even the huts of her people wers far more luxurious. They finally went to Butler, Pa, on 1 money furnished by her father. She declared she occupied garret in that city. while her husband had an elabo | rately furnished1 room, and that her l child was born in the garret.
 Her husband, she testified. finally forced her to return to Alaska, keeping the child in the east. It died during her absence, but her husband did not notify her of it's death.
 Many Alaskans and former Yukon residents in Seattle remember the beau .iful princess, who has been mentioned more than once ih Jack London's north ern writings. They say that while the story of the sllegsd wrongs is not so one sided as the woman would make appear, still she did dot receive the beet treat ment. Her hthsr is a full -blooded h. dian chief, while her mother had French biood and epeKs that language.

Its officers are N J. Svind- seth, president, and c. Edward Weber, secrstary. The members of the club are ss follows: N. J. Svindssth and c. Edward Weber. It is the intention to icon" Harry Raymond into becoming a member if the promoters can "lsnd" him for ms.riculation n fee of about two simolsons. Ths excuse given for the organization is . deep, jealousy existing between the above named gentlemen and certain members of the tried and true Ananias Club. whose names ws are not permitted to mention. It sesms that Pa.enaude and Grant have bsea keeping fraudulent record of numbers ot trout caught by themselves during . period of several years past, and svind- seth and Weber, possessing conscien. tious scruples against misrepresentation, quietly drew away from the old club and organized the new one in order to he rid of objectionable associates. It is thought that a factionsI war will be the result of the new organization, and great carnage may ensne. The existing differences have been placed in the able and impartial hands of P. c.
