SEWARD REPORTS STRENUOUS TRIP

The big freighter Seward re- turned from Hunters Bay las! night and finished d;c-n q '0i Lent of coal for this port today. Speaking of the trip from this port to Hunters Bay, Capt. Jenson of the Sew, ard said: "The weather Sunda, as we were trying to rounG Cape Chacon was absolutel, the worst 1 have seen in my fifteen years of steamboatine Tn Alaska. For hours the Sew ard fought the wind and waves in a blinding snow storm, and at last was forced to give up the fight and put back to shelt- CT in the lee of Barrier Island
 One item of the Stewards $ cargo was fifteen tons of dyn- amite in boxes.

FROM WEDNEsDAY'E DAILY
HyDABURo

An interesting paragraph is found in a report just issued on the work of the bureau of education for the natives Of Alaska. It tells of the founding of the village of Hydaburg on the west coast of Prince of wales island.
 This is a communal village, like Metlakhatla, but the Indians are the Alaska Hydahs who formerly lived in scatter ed villages. After two years their two principal concerns, a trading company and 8 lumber mill, both native enterprises, show successful conduct.
 The remarkable thing about this is the rise of people in the scale of civilization in half a century from head-hunting savages to communism.
 One of the early settlers of Whidby island, andthe first collector of customs on Puget Sound, Col, Ebey, who has many decendants still living was killed by one of these tribes and his head was car ried away as a trophy,
 In common with the tribes of the Kwakiult family, the Hydas practiced cannibalism. This was rite, however, the hamatsa degree in the secret society or order which united all the northern Indians in a more or less common brother hood.
 These head-hunting canabal- istic natives preyed upon all They excelled the Salish in mental and physical vigor and are surviving longer in the un- equal struggle with civilization
 On the one side there is but feeble survivil, with no ad- vancement. On the other there las been progress and marked capacity for readjustment to hanging environment,
 In the light of history, the a9e-old conflicts of savagery, with the accompanying deg addition and debauchery, the rise of various portions of the Hydah and Tsimpsian tribes really is most remarkable anthropological phenomenon. - Seattle P. l.

One very peculiar matter n connection with the Seddon wreck is that although this schooner carried life-belts or Dreservers, not a single one Of them has been washed ashore. There was thirty carried on 'op of the house and covered witha a tarpaulin, but in the mass of wood and wreckage which marks the beach for twenty miles from the scene of the wreck, there is not to be noted a solitary life belt. It re mains therfore a possible but remote hope that the men may have made raft of these and been driven ashore some place on the Diomedes or elsewhere. Nome Nugget.
