ALL SKAGWAY WAS GUEST IF
 VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT

At 3:S7 o'clock this morning the "All Out" gong was sounded, and the greatest spontaneous social even+ of the season was brought to an end.
 The huge fire gong sounded out loun@ and clear, for the start off ill the grand march at the Wolun- teer Firemen's annual ball at 9:S0 o'clock last night, and after those present had partaken of the spec tacular grand march, waltz follow ed two step, and Cicillian circle followed fox trots in such rapid succession that the guests Of this popular aggregation of fire fight CTS had no opportunity of think ing oF home or tired muscles.
 Tpe ball was a success. From a social event it stands out pre- eminent in the wintre's social cal endar as the premier. From Q fin ancial standpoint it is the climax of all balls. Not one ticket was leS in the hands of the commit tee. and from the big crush that was present, each and every ticket sold was evidently presented at the door ill exchange for permission to enjoy the time of times in Skag- ways history.
 Seventeen numbers were on the program and four extras were add ed for good measure.
 The Skagway Brass Band played for the regular dances, and had one been in some large hall in the states where the services of some famous marine or military panc dispensed the music, it could not have excelled that which IoPal mu sicians rendered last night.

The basket ball game played last Wednesday night was one Of the best in the Skagway League series, and was well attended, show ing that basket ball as played this seas n by the Skagway teams is meeting with the greatest enthu- siasm by the fans of this city.
 It was war to the knife with the two teams, and while considerable mixing was indulged in, still there was really more open play, and less rough work in this game than iu any of the previous games played.
 During the game a bad collision between Judd Mathews and Bert Mckenzie with Cole figuring in the melee resulted in a knockout to Mathews, but he got back into the game and while playing in hard luck by reason of his condition, stuck with his team to the end. The score at she final gave the game to the Firemen, by ten points, the team running up a total of 21 points over Il for the Elks.
 Harry Ask scored on 5 free baskets and l field goal; Mo Kenzie made three beautiful long free goals, and Friedenthal three goals, while Oleon. Ask completed the score with 1 field goal.
 Gillespie basketed the ball for a total of five free throws, and made l field basket. Rapuzzi made one field throw, ard Cole did like wise.
 A the end of the first half it was anybody's game, the score belng 2 to 6 in the Firemen's fa- vor.
 When the Bremen made their first appearance, it was hard to dis tinguiseh one player from the other, the team having received their new suits, and they are brilliant in color, being orange and black jer- seys and white pants. The hose are the same color as the jerseys, and as this is the first team to appear in regular suits, their ap- pearance was the signal for loud and long applause.
 Tn. usual dance followed the game, and the music furnished by band boys was up to it's usual stand ard of excellence.

For the four extras, Professor selmer's orchestra was in evidence, and 1t is hand to say which musical aggregation merited the most praise, the band or the orchestra.
 When the merry throng had reach ed the eleventh number on the program, and thought that it was time to look uR partners for the twelfth number which was a fox trot, hosts of Bremen were press ed into service and for the next half hour Epicure was in evidence. Delicious sandwiches, saVory coffee, dainty cake, served in lavish style was Yoraciously consumed by the hungry dancers and spectators.

PoWerless under the law to i'm pose any penalty except that of death, Judge R. W. Jennings late Saturday evening pronounced sen tence on Edward Krause, convict ed murderer of Captain James O.. Plunket&.
 When the court convened for the purpose of sentencing MT. Krause' JudgE Jennings told MT. Krauczun- as that he would hear his re- marks, st the close of which he called Krause forward and said:
 "Mr. Krause, the Grand Jury in- dieted you aad the petit jury con- yicter you after 8 fair and impar- tial trial, under the law of the land as the court saw 1t. If the court made errors another and higher court can correct them. If they were no mistakes the orders of this court will be carried out.
 t is not a pleasant duty which eonfroAts the court to pronounce sentence on you and am not going to deliver any lecture or prolona this matter to make you feel any worse.
 It is the judgment of the court thaa on the 11th day of May you be taken by the United States Mar sbal for this District of Alaska and be hanged by the neck until you are dead"
 Sentence as pronounced in a low toua of voice amid breathless stiffness, The hundreds who crowd ad the court room were intently and every moEes of both the man hanging on every word, every act' passing sentence and the man on whom sentenca was being passed.
 Immediately after the passing of sentence the hallway, which had been crowded with spectators, was cleared and Edward Krause was led back to his cell, never again perhaps to appear in the local court room, or in any court room and he will be closely confined and watched unt'1 the end.
 Kazic Krauczunas stated today that he has every intention of per- cecting an appeal of the case to the Circuit Court, on account of alleg- ed errors sn the trial both on part of the Court and District Attorney. He nas until the day of hte execu- ton te perfect his appeal h

SWISS UNABLE TO
CONTROL SMUGGLING

ZURICH Sept. 2'-The smuggling
of food products FROM Switzerland TO
Germany and to a smaller extent
also to France and Italy, is fast be
coming a national menace. but, de-
spite all protests % the press and
the public, the government seems
unable or unwilling 10 stop this
continuous draining of the Swiss re-
source. Only a few arrests are
made every week by the frontier
guards, and the smugglers always
get off with small fines, which they
can easily pay. because their profits
are enormous. Dozens of small
boats carry tons of food across the
Rhine and the Lake of Constance
almost every night. and the author
tiles know it.
1T is an open secret that some of
the smugglers' organizations make
from five To ten thousand dollars a
month from their nefarious bust
ness says the Neue Zuericher lei
tung. Small tradesmen who a short
while ago had nothing but debts
have become wealthy, because their
conscience is elastic enough TO per
NIT them TO rob their own country
men and To endanger the safety OF
the republic Most of the smuggler
try 10 excuse their criminal activi-
ties with the claim that small mer-
chants cannot get export permits.
while large corporations are allow
ed TO make millions by selling food
products and other necessities to
Germany and other belligerents.
That may be true TO a certain ex-
tent, but does not alter the fact that
smuggling under the present cir
cumstances is a crime that should be
punished with long terms of i'm
priSonment.
