Moying Pictures and Skates for Indians

The hankering for amusement has struck the natives of Juneau and Doug las island, and they now crowd the moving picture shows at every per formance. Two weeks ago a roller skating rink was opened at Douglas, and last week the demand for roller skates by natives got so large that the manager was compelled to set aside one night each week for the exclusive benefit of the Indians.
 Now on Fridays natives of all sizes and ages are to be seen tumbling about the floor, apparently enjoying the many bumps they receive.

Ship Burns in Port

Mazatlan, Feb. 22-As the steamer Jaurez entered port today the entire ship burst into flames as the result of spontaneous combustion. There were 115 passengers on board and they were compelled to jump into the water, there being no time to launch the lifeboats. Fifteen persons were drowned. The vessel was burned to the waters edge and it is believed the whole cargo is a total loss.

He struck another match and looked
again at the ghostly paraphernalia
about him. Near him hung a black
robe with large hood. He crushed
one of the folds in his hands and was
surprised to discover how thin II was
and into how small space it could be
compressed. Not far away stood sew
eral pairs of large slippers of soft
black felt. The white robes were also
of thinnest gossamer-flimsy stuff that
swayed like smoke when he breathed
toward it.
BY the light of third match he
looked more carefully at the other ap-
paratus. There was a large pair of
angelwings. Of the conventional shape.

There was step and the sound o

The Japanese minister turned to
Arima and talked rapidly in his native
tongue. From his manner it was plain
that he was giving orders. At last,
with a little gesture of authority, he
put on his hat and walked out. The
door closed after him with slam.
Arima. now alone. seated himself in
chair and appeared to mediate.
Again his hands were clasped about
his knees and his beady eyes fixed on
space. For fully fifteen minutes he
sat thus: then. with a little ciucking
u.
ried into the next room.
Now was Orme'S chance. He lifted
the table cover and rose to his feet
Arima had not closed the door after
direct view into the other room. and
he had to risk the possibility of being
seen before he reached the window.
Or should he try for the door? It all
depended upon what part of the next
room Arima was in: but the window
seemed safer. for the opening and
closing of the door would be sure to
attract attention.
Orme moved toward the window
slowly. watching the opening through
which Arima had disappeared. He got
halfway TO the window; three more
steps would bring him to the sill. And
then. without warning. Arima leaped
into the room Even in that moment
Orme caught glimpse of a mirror in
the farther room. and knew that the
Japanese had seen his reflection.
At this instant another man ap-
peared, close behind Arima. A band

they willed in 4 direct encounter. II
