Alaska Artist
 Passes Away

Theodore J. Richardson, noted as a painter of Alaskan landscape and scenery, died at his home in Minneapolis on December 2oth.
 For twenty-five years Richard son has been making the Alaskan trip once a year, and is known to a large circle of friends here. Three years ago Richardson spent the summer in Sitka and Juneau, but for the last two years made his summer headquarters at Wran- gell. He formerly made the trip during the summer cruises of the Spokane, and on each voyage would lecture of Alaskas scenery, which he pronounced the greatest in the world.
 MT. Richardson was about 60 years of age. He had studios in New York and Minneapolis. His collection of Alaska paintings is worth perhaps $500, 900. He lost a number of his valuable sketches when the Spokane was wrecked in Seymour Narrows three years ago.

their tour.

The tribute that was paid to the returning basket ball team when they arrived from their clean sweep of the cities of the south last Sun day evening was an affair that every one of the team may wei! feel proud of. Never in the history of the town has such a reception been given. The team arrived home about twelve o'clock and the citi- zens of the town that were not at the dock could be counted on your hand.
 The citizens gathered at the dock and as the Uncle Dan came into the harbor the band started play ing and many torches were lighted accompanied by the yells of the crowd. Every device for noise rfnaking was there and the long punches of fire crackers lighted from the dock made a beautsful sight under the blazing light of the torches. The boys were met at the top of the slip by the band and their friends and with the band leading they marched up to the Wrangell Hotel where congratulate ions were exchanged. Monday evening MT. ]. G. Grant of the Wrangell Hotel acted as host to the ball team at a bounteous dinner served in the dining room of the hotel. The dinner was fine affair and something that the boys will have to remember as a tribute to their victory. After the dinner an invitation was read from the Rink Theater extending the boys the favor of attending that show as the guests of Manager Purintou, and l to top the grand affair of after the show everyone turned out and a big victory hop lasted until the wee hours of the morning.
 As to giving the credit for the winning team to any one person is impossible, but the fact that Wran- gell has . great basket ball team can be laid to the able management of Chas. Lynch, Capt. Lynch and rheir coach Dr. Pigg who has spent much time and pains putting the boys iD coidition to m4Ie | win.

Sizing a Threaded Hole.

It sometimes becomes necessary to transfer the size of a threaded hole from some out of the way place to the shop in order to make a piece to fiji it. With proper tools this is easy: with out them it might be difficult. One thing is always at hand. and that is wood Whittle stick tapering until it starts in the hole Then turn It into the hole and fair thread will be made on the wood. The stick can be car ried in the pocket without risk of changing the size. as would be the case with ordinary calipers.
