Saw His Shadow

Saw lis ShadOW
 For the past week a big black raven, old in years and experience, has spent hours and hours on the very top of the cross that surmounts the church at the corner of Third and E streets. Yester- day morning he flew up on to Murray's water tank and after getting comfort ably located he began bis accustomed address in broken Thlinget.
 Pretty soon a shril whistle inter rupted the discourse and startled Mr. Raven until he nearly fell off his perch. The sound was produced by fat little ground hog that had just crawled out of a hole.
 "For the love of Mike" said the raven, "where did you come from"
 "That hole," said the ground hog, "and did you ever see such hot winter? l thought it would never come my day. I'm almost crazy with the neat Any thing new?"
 "Naw," quoth the raven.
 "Is the school running all right; and has any one stolen any of the pretty teachers?"
 Nav" said the raven, mot yet; but Pete Peterson put a new roof on his house last week and -"
 "What's that got to do with itY" in- terrupted the groundbog. "What do suppose cracked that glass in Fox's frontg"
 "NaturaI gas" answered the raven.
 "Have they had that Treadwell min- strel show yet?"
 "No. Montley can't get them to sing"
 "How's the band-all right yet?"
 "No, they tried to serenade the new Supt. and he came out and chased them away"
 "Is Tom married yet?"
 "I guess so."
 "What else do you know?"
 "Well, if Alaska goes dry, Howkan Prince of Wales Ketchikan without Wrangell. Juneau?"
 "Nome"
 "Whats more, there is positively no truth in Che report that Gov. Strong wanted to appoint John Troy dele gate 10 the Purity Congress"
 'I should say not"
 ooh, yes, Douglas has a commercial club now that is kicking up a lot of fuss and l wouldn't be surprised if they stuck their nose into the water, light and street car question before long. You know we are going to get that bridge. Jim Wickersham is with us There will be lots of building in Doug las before the year is out. One fellow up on Fourth street is digging for a foundation in the frozen ground And Joe White-he came back You see that place over across the channel where they have SO many lights? That's Thaue. Going to have baseball team this summer-you must be sure and come out And they have a good, soc ond hand ice pond at Treadwell. Apply to Jack Wilson. They fired the town marshal over at Juneau, but it was not because he stopped the poker game. You can't guess what's happened to Sam Keist."
 About this time the sun came out from behind the clouds, and as It's bright rays slanted across the hillside Mir. GToundhog began to get nervous and said:
 "Give my best regards to my friends, the children, and tell them to be good, aud kind, and patient, for the summer will come again with it's green leaves and flowers; and the birds will sing and the grasses will grow and they will have the warm long hours for play. 1t is yet too early for me and know that it's going to snow, SO l bid you good bye, aud 1 will be out again in about six weeks"

While thousands of Alaskans and thousands who are not Alaskans, are waiting impatiently for the government to move in the railroad matter, the of- 3cials in charge are taking their time, in order to avoid mistakes. When the word is given as to she ocean terminus of the proposed railroad, there will be a stampede, the like of which Alaska has never witnessed, and many hard earned dollar will be spent in the at. tempt to win an easy fortune.

Waterville, Oct 19.-With the return
to college last evening of Irving T.
Howe. New England intercollegiate
champion in the 100 and 220-yard
dashes, Colby's prospects for fair
track team assumed a brighter hue. 1t
had been rumored about the college and
even throughout the State that Howe
had gone to Dartmouth. but owing to a
delay in Boston, he was late in getting
back to Waterville to resume his
studies. The Negro spriAter is IN ex-
cellent condition. His training for the
San Francisco races, where he took a
fifth place among the best sprinters in
the country, was continued even after
his return to Boston. He will be out
on the track within day pr, SO, and
i under Coach Cohn's tutelage for another
year, Howe. ought to do even better
than last season.
The, first near approach to speed
that the Colby runners will have to
snow will be at the B. A. A. games IN
February Howe, owing to differences
with the faculty. could not run last
year, but this winter will undoubtedly
see him anchor man. 1t was expected
thati Ivan Waldron. the Portland boy,
who took first place in the quarter for
Colby In the Maine. meet two years
ago, would return this year, but so
far he has not been heard from. If he
should register. Coach Cohn, in view
or the fact that he has good array
OF quarter-milers, would run Waldron
IN the half. Golden, Colby's .mainstay
IN this event. has matriculated>at Ford
ham.
the general upsetting Of track team
AT the local college was due more to
a dissatisfaction with the election of
track captains last spring than any,
thing else. Ten &c" men were eligible
to vote. Five voted for Merrill, who
Is now captain, and five for Mayors, the
pole vaulter. Willard. manager of track.
who presided at the meeting, cast the
one ballot for Merrill, while in truth
willard was not eligible to vote, mas
much as he had not been granted his
letter. .,~
