The proceeds of the fete are to be

the war, the families of reservists in

The purpose of the fashion fete, all
its organizers agree, is not to sup

which Paris is not now able to do.

Lady Held the Claim
Ruby Record.

Ruby Record.
 Capt. J. F. Cryder, who came over from the Kuskokwim about the first of May, was a passenger up on the Tan ana Wednesday. He is in very poor health, suffering from partial paralysis and he hopes that a trip to the coast will improve his condition.
 "Cap." Cryder is an old timer in the North, having come to the Fortymile in 1892. Two years later he stampeded to Circle. As there were no civil au- thorities there at that time, the miners on the creek, following their usual cue- tom, elected a recorder. Cryder was chosen as "Gold Commissioner" and re- corder for the creeks, and he can tell many interesting stories of how justice was meted out by the miners in the early days, when no one knew or cared to know the federal mining law. 1t was the opinion of some, at that time, who would be law-wise, that woman could not hold mining claim. This opinion led to a very interesting case later. Mr. and Mrs. Barker and two children lived on the creeks in that district. Mrs. Bar 1 ker staked a claim. Later it was jumped by runaway sailor who had come across the Arctic. During Mir. Barker's absence the sailor went to work on the claim, whereupon the "lady of tbe house" made him call, took his pick and shovel away and threw them into the fire he was using to thaw the gravel, where they were burned up. MrSailor immediately called a miners meeting and asked for damages for the loss of his pick and shovel. He lost his case He then brought action for title to the claim on the grounds that the law gave Mrs. Baker no right to stake claim. After due deliberation the miners de cided that they did not know whether the law gave her the right or not, but Iifi did not the law wrong, and should ] toe amended and they at once awarded ! her the claim.
 This is only one instance of the decisive action in arriving at justice in the early days. Gap says, after much experience around Nome and in other camps, that the miners could try a case ! in 30 minutes and come nearer giving justice to all concerned than they can now a days in five years. The best of it all it cost one nothing. It was a duty one owed to another.

One of the Slippery Seven

Senator Elwood Bruner, of the Sec. oud division, was visitor in town the first of the week. He came down on the Reliance Monday, laid over and took the Schwatka for St. Michael Wednesday. He is going to Nome. Sen. ator Bruner spent several months in Washington, D. C., during the winter, part of which time he was explaining why, and trying to get even with Dele. gate Wickersham for putting him on the dead letter list, as he is one of the "slippery seven" senators sent to Ju- neau, says the Ruby Record.
 The little railroad edisode was men, tioned to Senator Bruner and it wss only too evident by the way he stormed that it was not to his liking.
 Ruby's congenial colored gentleman, "George," had delivered the Senator's baggage to the boat, and when George was paid for bis services some remark was made about the railroad when George said:
 "Senatan Brunah, now if you'll vote for de railroad bill next time you have a chance, we won't charge anything for hauling your baggage"
 The slippery Senator lost his dignity right there, swung his hands in space and screamed Ut is a blank, blank lie," to the great amusement of the by. islanders. The colored gentleman be- gan meekly backing away, when the Senator demanded "Who told you that?"
 swell, Senatah," said George, "I just seed it iu three different papers; one from Cordova, one from Fairbanks and our Ruby paper. I get lem up home now; and nobody dun told me-"
 "Its all lie and dirty trick" con- tinued the Senator, "and I'll fix every thing when I get to Nome" to which George stammered, "Yes, sab, wish yu would" and seeing his opportunity slipped away from the hornets nest he had unwittingly stirred up.
 The laet remrrk that the Senator was heard to make as the boat pulled away was "Pve been insulted by nigger."

Benny and the Bear
-Iditarod Pioneer.

-IditarOd Pioneer.
 On last Wednesday afternoon while Bennett James, ,who is mining on Chick. en creek, was "sort O saunter'n'" from that stream and had reached the upper Flat creek trail, be felt something tugging at his feet. He looked down, and, to his amazement, a bear was there. And in less than one short second Benny was at least forty feet from there and going some. So was the bear. The bear liked Ben's compa- ny. Ben lost bis hat and stopped to get it. Bruin stopped also. Ben also picked up a robust club and swatted the bar as the latter closed in for another fond embrace. Benny side stepped Bruin, and the second lap of the race was on for fair. Benny's foot work was good, but the bears was bet ter. It was a dandy race and the odds were in the bear's favor, when Ben stopped again, this time he picked up huge rock to hurl at his pursuer. He was determined to see the game clear through and sell his life as dearly as possible. Just as he was about to throw the stone-which would un- doubtedly have hurt Bruin's feelings the cook from Al Walsh's mining camp hove in sight and whistled, and the bear immediately quilted Benny and followed the cook back home.
 The bear in this particular hair raising story proved to be Betsy" the cub that last summer and fall afforded so much fun about the Budweiser building in this city. This little inci- dent surely puts Bennett in line as the proper successor of "John the Bear Hunter" who left Fairbanks few weeks ago.
