The papers up north tell the following story of Harry Raymond, the genial and good natured travelling man: Harry had been made special deputy marshal by Marshal Shoup at the beginning of the strike at Treadwell, for the purpose of assisting in the protection of property. He was an interested spectator as the troops came ashore and took a com manding position. He was particularly pleased with the gatling gun, and made clese inspection of it. He had just se- placed it's rubber coat, and was standing near, when the curiosity of the slavoni ans led bunch of them in his direction. A spokesman asked Harry what kind of a machine it was. He replied that it was 6 new kind of picture making ma chine. and promptly grouped dozen or more men in front of 1t. After spending several minutes waving them to this side and that, forcing them back and beckoning them nearer-all of the signs being promptly obeyed by the men who had pursed their faces into pleasantest smiles-the drummer-deputy, apparent ly satisfied with the focus, quickly took the coat off the wicked looking little gun. In ten seconds there was not e Slovenian in sight They flew in differ ent direction.

PATCHING EXPLAINS
KETCHIKAN MINER)

"In your issue of March 30 you have a short staten ent in regard to the money raised in your city about year ago, and delivered to me for the benefit of anyone in Wrangell who was-in distress by req son of the fire which had burnt out the town, and as part of your statement was not correct, take the liberty of writing you few words in explanation:
 Soon after the fire in Wrangell hap. pened to be in ketchikan, and as it was known that I had lived there for some time, I was asked if I thought there would be anyone there-at Wrangell- in distress, and I said no, that did not think so, but that probably good many that were very hard hit. However, as there was a report that there was dis. tress, sum of money-I think s332- was collected, handed to me, and was asked to go to Wrangell, and if there was anyone there in need or distress to help them out, and not to limit myself to the amount collected, but to expend what might be necessary, and the money would be refunded to me on my return to Ketchikan. 1 was also instructed that the money was not to be used to build sidewalks.
 When I got to Wrangell, with one or two exceptions, spoke to all the lead. ing citizens, including the U. s. Con- missioner, and told them for what pur- pose was there, and they all, without exception, said there was no distress in the town.
 While speaking to Mayor Jensen, he told me that the city was badly in need of money to build sidewalks, but as the money, was specially told, was not to build sidewalks, and as there was no distress to relieve, I brought the money back to Ketchikan and turned it over to some of the parties who had given it to me.
 Hoping I have made myself clear in the foregoing, and excusing myself for taking up your time, remain,
 Yours truly,
 FRED PATCHING" :"

To avoid relaying freight at Ketchikan or Wrangell, the cannerymen and mer- chants oi the west coast have made ar- engagements with the Alaska Steamship Go. by which the Farallon will make two trips per month, carrying mail and freight, from Seattle to all west coast points. This will put dent into the carrying business of the Ella Rohlffs, and also into the wharfage at KetrIikan an Wrangell, but will be great conysn. fence to west coast people.

II. r.
Dear Sirs: Enclosed find money order
for $500 for which please send me your
semiweekly paper SIX months.
| have taken your paper before and
visited the island two years ago and
am getting homesick to know what is
going on there now. Perhaps 100,0 900
people have moved west from Iowa in
the past year. I think many of us
would go to Hawaii if we could be
assured no more Japs would come there.
Why not try the Russian famine dis
trict for laborers. There are many now
at Garden City, Kans., raising sugar
beets by hand and they make good citi-
zens and would help keep the Japs
straight.

NEW LAUNCH OF
SPECIAL BEAUTY

Chris Johnson, the veteran boat
builder, has just completed for Colonel
Sam Parker what is probably the larg-
est, SWEETEST, fastest and most expen-
sive gasoline launch ever seen in these
waters. The pretty craft went into
commission yesterday and was taken
out by Prince Kawananakoa and
others for a trial spin She behaved
splendidly. and maintained an average
speed of ten knots Henceforward she
viii be used as an excursion boat
about this island and between here
and the other islands.
The magnificent addition to Homo
lulu's pleasure fleet viii be known as
the Kuaihelani, that being the native
name of Mrs. Campbell-Parker. The
launch is 30 feet in length, seven width,
four depth and carries a 16-horse pow
er Racine engine. There is ample
seating room for fifteen persons and
she will carry twenty or more at a
pinch.
The launch has beautiful lines and is
painted white. Inside the finishing is
most elaborate. Walls and ceiling are
of brown and pale koa, fastened with
bright gilt screws. Seats extend all
the way around, and by a clever avn
ing arrangement the vessel can be Sc
curely closed in event of rain or heavy
seas
Mrs Parker is delighted with the
beautiful and useful craft, and Con-
tractor Johnson is being generally
on his handiwork, par

sept the engine, represents home IN

greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about

No. ,. He came over and looked her
over and said that he could not do any
thing moro for her, that we had better
take her to some eye specinhst, since it
was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego
TO doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could help it.
We thought we would try doctor No. 5.
