MINER KILLED

|, RUBY.-A fatal accident which cast gloom over Long City occurred ,last Saturday afternoon, when a cave in occurred on No. 8 Bear pup, kill ing Chris Henry, one of the owners and operators of the ground.
 Heney, John Miller and Theodore Laliberte had been working in the ,drift but O short time a1Jer dinner, Nyhen a slab of dirt from the roof fell, completely governing Heney. Miller heard him call just as the cave-in oc- cured and he and Laliberte commence ed to dig him out.
 The body of the unfortunate man was recovered after about five minutes; but death must have been al- most instantaneous, as, upon examina- ,tiOn by Dr. Conley, it was found that his neck, back and both arms were broken-Ex.

SEWARD. ALASKA. FRIDAY, AUGUST Il, 1916

At the time this is written it is assumed that the An chOrage ball team will arrive today. Anyhow they will arrive one of these days and they will be welcome.
 International sporting contests have traditOnaly been regarded as one of the best for creating friendly feelings between two nations and if this tradition is well founded there is no reason why baseball games be- tween two cities should not have similar effect In the
 first yacht race between the Shamrock and the American cup defender trouble and that sporting event in stead of bringing friendship caused very bad feelings It was the same with the first international athletic con- test between the United States and Great Britain The latter country got beaten badly that some got and trouble threatened but the majority took the thing well that no harm If those objections had been lodged in a calm and friendly spirit irritation would have resulted but when loses his temper is very hard to avoid irritating someone else And it is very diff cult to avoid loss of temper you have money up and you feel that the other side has been favored
 Very often the remarks of outsiders help along the n cination towards irritation. An example of this was given during the games with Fort LScum and the mana gers of the games asked this paper at the time to draw at ention to it. It is now up Seward to give visitors most friendly welcome They are certainly welcome and we all appreciate the.r visit All Seward wishes them royal time They cannot expect us of course, to wish them victory but they have thousand of best wishes for everything else.
