 What appears to be more ser ious than Halloween caper occurred dur ing the wee' small hours of Sunday after the noise and din of the nigbt's jokers and the frivolities of the occas- ion had ceased. Commorative with the celebration of the preceding even- ing of All Saints Day, it follows that festivities, pranks and ghostly inci- dences may reasonably be expected. These things all happened. And more. Now it is up to the city and federal authorities to arrest the guilty parties. Thieves, for they could be classed as nothing less, cut their way into the meat markets of Hunt Latin rop and Frye-Bruhn Co. through the wire screens of the door and window. The cash registers were rihed, the losses amounting to about $500 for the former and S15.00 for the latter firm. Such acts as these must be stopped, and at once. For if not they lead on to continued series and van dalism. A clue to the burglars is said to have been discovered, and it is all most certainty that the police will locate them.
 Now 27 call up OTIS I 70, and if there are any old maids whose bump of inquisitiveness leads t hem further invert the passage and see what it says. Better, however, to write the letters and numerals on a piece of paper.
 The snug little whaler, Tyee, of Seattle, which has been working on the western coast during the past summer ran into port this morning for supplies. She captured 196 whales around Taku, Yukatat and northern points. She is towing large sloop to Seattle for the purpose of installing m machinery to make her whaler.
 Mir. Swan, the agent of the Pacific Coast Co.,, at Juneau, reports that the City of Seattle is due to arrive at Ketchikan Tuesday afternoon on her down trip.
 Colonel Shoenbar, accompanied by Mrs. Shoenbar is back with us again. He will leave for Juneau tomorrow, and will return to Ketchikan for bus mess on the next steamer south.
 The steamship Humboldt has been repaired. She left Seattle at g p. m. Saturday night, which will bring her here early Tuesday morning.
 Mir. H. L. Hager, the general rep resentative for the New England Eli sh Co.,, came all the way from Boston to Ketc hikan to inpsect the progress of their plant, and to get acquainted with the conditions prevailing in this new section. MT. Hager expressed himself as entirely satisfied with things as he finds them.
 Our sister city, Wrangell, had a little scare last night in the fire line The flames were quickly put out, thereby preventing what at first ap- peared to be a serious fire.
 The many friends of Capt. J. E.. Anderson will be glad to learn that he is almost entirely cured of the bad spell of rheumatism, and is now ready for action, active or passive, though preferable the former.
 It IS officially announced that the Rev. Thomas Jenkins, of St. Johns Mission has been elevated to the high office of Archdeacon for the District of Alaska. This honor comes to Mir. Jenkins after years of hard labor, and lies lightly upon his brow. It is the consensus of opinion that he is not only priest, but man of the broad est and most comprehensive under- standing of things apostolic and secu- lar. Liberal in construction, kind and char itable in mind and nature he is peculiarly adapted for his mission in life, and that he has by earnestness of purpose without bitterness to any and love of fellowship for all gained the watchful eyes of his superiors is not surprising to his many friends and parishioners. MT. Jenkins will make his headquarters at Skagway, leaving here about the last ot the present month. His new position will bring him in contact with all parts of Alas ka, and we say, therefore, reasonably expect to see him semi mi-occasionally. Mir. Jeknin's successor as priest will be Rev. Richard E. Roe, of the dio- cese ot Central Pennsylvania, located at Troy.
 /: Fog, the extremely uncertain ele- ment during the present season, was the principal cause of the delay of the Princess May. She got in Saturday evening nearly two days late.
