Mail adyiecs we're received at the
office Of the Alaska Fishcrmcn's
Packing Company, in this city, yes
terday, direct from Superintendent
r A. Berglund, the companys repre-
sentative in the far north He reports
all well and everything promising, on
the date he wrote, June 4th.
The feet arrived in at Nushagak in
the following order: The North Star
on May 10th; the ships St. Nicholas
and Berlin, on the 18th, and the ship
Henry Willard on the 24th. All hav-
ing had heavy dealing with the ice
fields en- route. The voyage was con-
sidcrably slower than that made last
year.
The full trip took up 80 days TO
complete; with a l2-day run to Uni
max Pass, where they we're barred
by ice for another II days, and at a
point 60 miles beyond there the ice
forbade further progress for a while.
Bchring Sea begging almost crowded
with it. On May lth the North Star
ran alongside the Willard and report
cd she had been within 100 miles OF
the eompany's cannery at Nushagak,
and had been compelled to turn back
from the crowding ice foes.
Superintendent Berglund writes
very chcerfully, and lays especial en-
phasis upon the fact that the feet ar
rived in ample time to meet and pre-
pare for the June run OF King sal
mon. Il is presumed that all the
families interested in this great an
nual venture have received personal
mail by the post that brought down
Mr. Berglund's letters.

Some Glorious Fruit

Hood River is famous for the
strawberries she puts forth on the
markets of the world; but she has
nothing to surpass the basket OF new
Morris berries sent in to the Office
OF Ward & Finlayson, Of this city,
yesterday morning from the Young's
River Farm of William Metheral.
They we're fresh from the plan, glow
ing with warm rich colors, deliciously
perfumed, compact, firm, and lucious
beyond description. Expert and epi-
cure may search the earth for any
thing to exceed them. They were
photographed by Coe, and seen by
all men who came their way. Some
Of them measured "a inches in cir
cumference, and eight OF them lined
up at a random covered a space of
l4l inches on a platter The repor-
torial mouth watered for half day
after the inspection given them in
this Office, and then some. They are
cultivated from a seed developed by
Mrs. Morris, and had their incep-
ton on the north bank Of the Column
bia opposite this city. They will
create furore on the western market
when they reach it. For a backward
season the berries are literal marvel
and under normal conditions there is
no reckoning their perfect attain
ment,

Terva Is Sentenced

Eli Terva. bound over to the circuit
court Friday on charge OF assault
ing Matt Walquist, was arraigned
yesterday and later appeared before
Judge Mcbride and pleaded guilty.
He was sentenced to 90 days in the
county Jail. Terva had no attorney
nor apparently any means to retain
one, and therefor the court appointed
Attorney c. ]. Courts to appear for
the prisoner Evidently he had little
or no defense and the plea OF guilty
was entered. In this case there was
quick dispatch and justice was vindi-
Gated in short order. The authorities
feel that they have a right to congra-
tulate themselves in the matter, for
heretofore it has ben pretty hard
time to secure verdict against GER
tain ones among the foreign popula-
ton no matter how apparent the guilt
was.
