The Stampede

The Sushauna excitement is taking it's quota of fortune seekers from every camp in the North. From Nome, Fair banks aud Dawson the mushers are hiking for the new diggings. The coast towns are also affected and every boat ls loaded. Already some are coming back. They took Che wrong trail, the streams are high or the reports from the new camp are discouraging. lt is the same old story over again; the same comedy chat has been enacted in the North SO many times. Some will win and some will lose. Fortunes will De won and fortunes aill be lost. It is the spirit of the stampede Way back in '97 when Gastipeau cbauuel with it's mountains of gold bearing rock was the center of the gold excitement, tbe stampede to the KlondIke carried away hundreds, and thousands passed by without a thought. Now Che quartz lodges that were then open for location are worth many milGou- of dollars and more are here for the finding. But the stampeder still stampedes, for the chance for quick riches will not wait. May their hopes all be realized. But while we are on the subject, We cannot help saying that nine times out of ten the patient plodder wins out in the long run, and Gastineau channel is pretty good just now.

A Mean Thing

Stroller White, of the WhitehOrse Star, is a nasty, mean thing. Just be- cause we defeated him for the position of judge of the first annual pie-makiug contest of Southeastern Alaska, here is what he says about us:
 'The editor of the Douglas Island News refers Co tbe editor of the Star as "A staryed-to.death printer from across the Iine.' We admit that it does not take a trunk strap to encircle us as is required by the editor of the News, but with us diagnosis is not difficult Co determine whether a pain is caused from lumbago or cholera iufantum. If the editor of the News would retain his seat on the water wagon as per sistently as we do, he would look more like a man and less like 8 bungalow

The double tragedy down on Front street Sunday morning is only oneoof many that have transpired in that'seo< tion to disturb the peace and. harmony of our otherwise quiet and orderly town. Sad as it tis, it should carryits lessons. Sections given over to de- bauchery are at al times producers of crime and unhappiness. Municipal governments in Alaska wink at c0n- ditions which they know to exist, fol- lowing the example of the officers of of the federal government Thus are we mutually responsible for existing conditions. The time will come when we shall demand their abolishment. And again, the "gun that wasn't loaded" has been the cause of more sighs and regrets than any epidemic, or famine, or pestilence. Volumes written on the subject have DO effect It goes on and on without shadow of turning, but the fact still remains, and the man who will point a gun at a fellow being, whether it be loaded or not, is fool and a knave.

The Gun Was Loaded

Early last Sunday morning Trans Sundem shot and killed Ruby Scott, a resident of the Cameron building on North Front street, and few minutes later turned the gun on himself, send- ing a bullet through his heart. There is no indication that malice entered into the tragedy-only the old story tbat he "didn't know it was loaded"
 Sundell was visiting the girl, drink ing beer and having a good time gen. orally. In playful mood he pulled 25-calibre automatic revolver from his pocket and pointed it at the girls face. In second there was an explosion and Che girl fell, stream of blood pouring from her mouth. The bullet, entering her mouth, had severed an artery, and she died before help could be sum- moned.
 When be saw what he had done, Sun dell exclaimed, My God, didn't know it was loaded" and dropped into a chair. A few minutes later he placed the gun to his breast and fired a bullet through his heart and fell to the floor by the side of his victim, dead.
 The funeral of Ruby Scott was held at 10 o'clock this morning from the Congregational church. The body was inferred in the Douglas cemetery.
 Frank Suudel was young man about thirty years of age, and a repre- sentative of New York jewelry house. He had been around Juneau and Doug las for some time and was a mem Der of a local football team. He was Fin lander by birth.
 It is generally believed that the shot which killed che woman was purely ac- cidental and that Sunden, when he realized the result of his carelessness, turned the pistol on himself rather face the consequences of his act.

SEEM TO NEED EXPLANATION

May Hardly Be Dismissed ~
"Nonsense."

You. being . typical. hard-headet
specimen Of humanity, have often ex
pressed yourself as taking not the
slightest stock in palmistry and "aI
that kind of rot" and have openly
jeered at feeble-minded fellow men
who admit that they scan't help but be-
lieve there is something in it." Utter
nonsense! OF course It's nonsense
and yet how do you explain some OF
the striking, and verified, instances on
record Of the fulhllment of the future
~ foretold by the hands? Take the
following authentic case a. an ex
ample:
About four years ago two women OF
refinement, more from . spirit OF d.
version than from any other reason.
determined to consult . well-known
palmist in London. The first woman
was thunderstruck by the accurate
reading given Of her past. She was
promised a happy future also. and the
palmist foretold many events which
have since come true.
The past Of the second woman was
read also. but the palmist refrained
from saying anything about her fu.
ture. When asked why she did not
prophesy in regard to this she replied:
II can see no future in your hand"
Barely ten minutes afterward the
woman whose hand portrayed no fa-
ture was run over and killed by mo-
tor omnibus when crossing the Strand!
Quite recently skeptic in regard to
palmistry was induced to consult a
famous palmist. He did 80 In q
spirit of derision. but his attitude was
soon changed to one of awed surprise.
The palmist detailed events In his life
which were known to- himself alone.
He had spent ten years Of his youth
in America. There he had married un.
happily and divorced his wife. When
he returned to England he determined
to look upon that part of his life as q
closed book, and 20 his friends over
here, without exception. we're ignorant
of the fact that he had ever married.
The palmist not only read about his
marriage in his hand, but gave the ex.
act year in which It took place. the
events which led up to it and those
which led to its dissolution. After this
striking demonstration Of the art OF
palmistry the skeptic was constrained
to admit that there was great deal
in It, after all"

U. ST TO. THE RESCUE
United States Government BUSHES
$4,000 Tents and 1000, 900 Ra-
tions to Flood Districts.

Washington, March 26.-Secretary
of War Garrison this afternoon or
dered that $4,000 tents and 1900
600 rations be rushed to Ohio from
Philadelphia for the relief of the
flood sufferers.
Appalled, by the flood situation in
Ohio and Indiana. President Wilson
voiced today a personal plea to all
American citizens to aid the flood
victims. In statement issued from
the White House the president said !:
"The terrible floods in Ohio and
Indiana approach the proportions of
a national calamity. The loss Of life
and infinite suffering prompt me to
issue an earnest appeal to all who
are able to assist the labors of the
American Red Cross Society to send
contributions to the headquarters of
the society in Washington or to it's
local treasures. We should make
this common cause.
"The needs of those upon whom
this sudden and overwhelming disas-
ter has come should quicken every
one capable Of sympathy and COM
passion to give immediate aid to
those laboring to rescue and relieve.

contributions of money, food and
clothing.
Secretary of Wa9 Garrison offered
the assistance of the War Depart
ment, but the governor said he would
not call fo rthis aid unless Indiana
citizens are unable to take care of
the situation.
At Delaware, 25 miles north of
Columbus, the inhabitants are still
flood bound. The dead number 33.
From Sidney comes the report of
from 100 to 500 drowned. Tiffin
reports at least so lives lost. STRAIT
ford, town near Delaware, accord
I ing to unconfirmed report from
farmer who reached Delaware today,
was swept away and 100 drowned.
According to wireless message re-
ceived at the Ohio State University
here this afternoon; from Mount Yer
non, probably 100 have lost their
lives in this town. This report could
not be verified tonight. Meagre re-
ports from Hamilton, in the Miami
valley, are that half dozen lives
were lost.
