EAGLES GAIN
 MANY MEMBERS

The reduction in the Initiation fee for membership in Skagway Ae- rie, No. 25 ,Fraternal Order of Eagles, is being taken advantage of by the thoughtful men of Skagway as evidenced by the fact that sev- enteen applications were acted upon at last nights meeting of this pOpu- lar fraterniy.
 It is the intention of Skagway Ae- rie to hold a special meeting to- wards the latter end of the month for the purpose of initiating the large class which will be taken into the order under the Special Dispen- sation granting a reduction of the initiation fee for the time up to the 28th day of February.
 The fact that the Fraternal Order of Eagles is beneficiary organi- zation, paying sick and funeral ben efiJs, in addition to furnishing it's members and those directly depend ent upon him for support, with medical attendance is factor worthy of careful consideration by all thinking, men, and especially married men with families.
 Those desirous of additional in- formation relative to the advantages O. membership in this fraternity are requested to ask any member of the order.
 Skagway Aerie has maintained large membership during the past several years, even though the town itself has suffered somewhat from the effects of the backward step in the deyelopmen: of the north. Thousands of dollars have been paid out for sick and funeral benefits, and today there is over $500 in cool cash in the treasury The Aerie owns it's own building and furnishings and ttere is not one cent Of indebtedness against the local AeriC.

NOT
 MATURED AS YET

Paris, Feb. 5-It is not believed here today that George Carpenter, the French champion heavyweight O Europe will ever meet Jack Johnson the black. Carpenter is not yet grown, being still under 20 years of age and though still growing it will be several years before he attains his full weight and solidity. Until then his managers would scarcely risk a bout with the negro fighter. It is considered here as quite likely that Carpenter may become cham Dion of the world later, winning from Johnson's successor. It would be the first time France ever held such championship.

CHICAGO'S NICKEL HOTEL
 ALWAYS HAS WAITING LIST

Chicago, Feb. 5-The price of a beer" will work wonders at the Rufus Dawes Memorial Hotel, re- gently opened to the public and clientele made up largely of mem bers of the great army of the un- employed. For q single nickel, you can get bed for the night, a bath, a shine, a shave and have your clothing fumigated. 4 night shirt is provided free of charge for every lodger.
 In this hotel restaurant, another nickel will move the following as sortment of food your way-a beef stew with potatoes and vegetables, cup of coffee with milk and two fat rolls. If you want a change in menu, you can ask the gentleman ly waiter to bring you a bowl of soup instead of stew. For ten cents you can get a ''priyate room, but according to w. D. Tayor, manager, few of the regular guests squander a dime on such a luxury unless the dormitory rooms are occupied.
 The new hotel was built by Chas. c. Dawes, Chicago banker, as memorial to his son, who lost his life on Lake Geneva, Wis. The or iginal investment was S1OO,OOO. Re ceipts thus far have run far below operating expenses, but Dawes said today he guessed he could stand the drain.

FIRED BULLET INTO HIS BODY.

Linton, N. D. March 16.-Louis
Foefii, a resident of this county, 63
years of age, fired eleven bullets
from 22 calibre rifle into his head
before he finally ended his life. He
displayed an almost superhuman te-
nacity Of purpose in doing this. His
mind has been more or less unbalanc-
ed, and the tragedy followed closely
on plans he had under way for divid-
ing his property between his three
living sons and his wife, previous to
going elsewhere to make his home.
That the deed was long meditated
by him and perhaps brooded upon
for hours in diseased and disorder
ed brain, is disclosed in a letter writ
ten by him with. extreme care, a let
ter somewhat in the nature Of per-
sonal history or an autobiography.
The deed was committed in shed
near his house, and the body was dis
covered by Frank Foefli, his son, who
found his father lying face down in q
pool of blood. Seven of the bullets
had gone through the top Of the head
lodging in the ceiling above, and four
bullets had entered the skull just
above the eye.
