-AldSAtt, Hho u IACuSIlhttl NlSltOl Co, terday. While here he christeneo Margaret Eleanor, the little daughter of Prof. and Mrs. Bertram Mitchell.
 The Murphys, Rudnicks and Mrs. Sickles returned on the Onward yes terday morning from their two weeks camping trip at the mouth of the Unuk. They are all thoroughly tan ned and report first class time with fish stories galore.
 Mrs. Y. NJ. Rude, wife of Lieut.. Rude, of the coast survey boat Ged- ney, who has been visiting her hus- hand on his vessel now working on the west coast of Prince of Wales is- land, is passenger on the Jefferson bound for the Sound
 Steamboat Doings The Seattle arrived south bound at 5: 30 yesterday morning. the Spokane, northbound at midnight. last night; the Jefferson at o'clock this morning. The Dol pnin was scheduled out of Seattle Saturday night and if she left on time should be in tomorrow morning.
 Mr. and Mrs. H. c. Bradford accompanied by Miss Thiell, Mrs. Bradtord's sister, were passengers south on the Seattle yesterday. Bus mess conditions of the Ketchikan Steamship Co. compell 'Brad" to take up his residence in Seattle to take care of the affairs of the com- pany at that end of the line.
 The Spokane was up to her old tricks again last night arriving here about midnight and will probably sneak by without stopping on the way back. Moral suasion having been l apparently without results, it might be a good idea for some of the mer- chants who ship their goods by the Pacific Coast boats, and have failed to dispose of their souvenir stock ow- l ing to the persistent cussedness of the captain of the Spokane, to try some other line for few months and see if they can't bring the Pacific Coast S. ;. Co. to time. There must be somebody above Capt. Carrol, big bug though he looks upon himself to be, and that somebody is looking for business to help pay the wages of the aforesaid captain and will probably drop a hint that might do him a little good.

 The Dolphin arrived northbound from Seattle at 9:45 this morning. The cause of her being so late is attributed to the fact that just before she was to have left Seattle trouble occurred between officers and crew and the majority of the latter quit. This necessitated the employment of new men many of whom are very green. When it came to unloading this morn ing the officers had to turn to and lend a hand as the so-called sailors didn't know which end of the sling to put the hook into.
 The following passengers came up for this place on the Dolphin: J. H. iIazlette, X. H. Brooks. Maybelle Douglas. J. l.. Johns, F. w. Nolan don T'ro ,,ans I1nrnflnr I9 NJ Aldrial,
