 Skaguay, Alaska. Dear Sir In the Seattle Post In- telIigencer of the twelfth of No vember nineteen hundred thirteen. appears an article concerning the converting of a GrarI Camp of the Arctic Brotherhood in Seattle and listing the delegates from the sub ordinate Camps that were in atten- dance.
 Those given as from Camp Skag- way were: Peter SwofCord, Rich ard Mansfield White and Jack Keller.
 In justice to Cam Skagway, which does not recognize the above mentioned Grand Camp, permit me to correct this error thru your col umns.
 Camp Skagway did not authorize any of it's members to represent it in any way at Seattle in nineteen hundred thirteen.
 Furthermor" the same article names a delegate as from Camp Se- ward. Camp Seward has advised Camp Skagway that they did not authorize a delegate to represent them at the Seattle meeting refer red to.
 Yours truly,

$500 A WEEK FOR CLOWN IN
HAGENBECK- WALLACE SHOW

Half a hundred clowns from mirth-
lands fertile field have be1l assem-
bled this season by the management
Of the Hagenbeck- Wallace circus,
which comes TO Wilmington Thursday
May %, for performances at ? and s
D. M, and a two-mile long street pa
rade at 10 o'clock in the morning
One Of the most interesting Of these
clowns is Arthur Borella, known the
world over as the Here's Me" clown.
This is Borellas trade mark, and for
twenty years it has been his slogan
and by-word. Whenever he appears
on the hippodrome track he shouts
these words.
Mr. Borella is the originator OF
many clown novelties. He is the first
person to successfully introduce base
ball pantomime. and it was he who
conceived the idea of having a goose
follow him about the track on sup
posedly trip to the frontier as sol
der. This season Borella has bur-
lesquc which he calls chicken" and
il promises TO break all records as a
laugh dispenser and a crouch chaser.
Arthur Borella is the highest paid
clown i'm the world. His salary is
5000 per week and all expenses. Only
once in all the history of circus was
this eclipsed. and this was by the inn
mortal Dan Rice. who once received a
salary OF $1,000 per week.
