WRANGELL TOWNSHIP
 MATTER
Will Be Finally Dis posed of in the
 Near Future

c. M. Leming, special agent of the general land office, spent the past week in Wrangell on business connected with the Wrangell townsite.
 The readers of the Sentinel will be pleased to learn that after waiting a generation the town- site matter is at last going to be settled.
 Mir. Leming, when seen at the Wrangell hotel, stated that c. K. Arundel, chief of the field divi- sion of the land office, who was recently appointed trustee for the Wrangell tow nsite, will, within a few days, receive from Washing ton a Autographed plat of the sub divisional survey of the Wrangell townsite. Mir. Arundel will then set date for the re- ceipt of applications for trustees deeds which will be issued upon the payments of assessments levied against the particular lot or lots for which application is made.
 The rate of assessments can not be definitely stated until the government advises the cost of the Warner survey.
 A reasonable time will be al- lowed for the receipt of applica- tions for deeds, and at the expi- ration of that period all vacant lots, and all lots for which appli- cations are not filed and assess ments paid, will be advertised for sale at public auction on a day not less than sixty days from date of first publication of the advertisement.
 Mir. Leming has asked the town council to appoint committee to assist in determining the proper valuation to be placed upon the lots for the purpose of levying the assessments.

An Ill-Fated Expedition

Mickey" Prescott, N. Nuss- baumer, Marion Mckinney and A. Jacobitz, left Saturday night on MT. Jacobitz's boat for the Stikine flats where they expected to spend Sunday duck hunting. The trip was by no means an un- eventful one. In fact. it was all event. The party left Wrangell at Il o'clock Saturday night. An hour later MT. Jacobitz went to sleep at the wheel. He dreamed that he was driving Bjorge's auto truck and ran the boat up on a high sand bar where the party could get an excellent view of the surl ounding country at daybreak. The boat remained in it's alti- tudinous position, close to the stars, from Saturday midnight until Monday noon when a high tide came up and benevolently set the boat afoat once more. The Sentinel man said to one of the party, What do you fellows call that place where you piled up with your boat?" He replied: What we called it would not look we'll in print. /" Notwith- standing their tribulations the party brought back nice bag of ducks.

THE RAG
 DOLL PARTY"

The Rag Doll Party" given at the Rink last evening under the direction of Mrs. c. G. Bur- net for the benefit of the Red Cross was largely attended, and of course was a success financial ly. The twenty-two little people taking part furnished an even- ing's entertainment which for real amusement discounted any thing their parents and the rest of us might have attempted be- fore the footlights. It required no little effort to train the little ones to do their parts so well. At the close of the "doll party" Mrs Burnet gave a reading. She received a most hearty encore and responded with a second reading which was also highly appreciated.
 A. B. Pennycook sang aScotch song which of course made a hit. The applause came from every pair of hands in the audience, and not until he had sung the third song would the audience consider the affair at an end.
 Great credit is due Mrs. Bur net for her unselfish efforts in so successfully training the children for the occasion.

Gustav Robert Walberg and Mrs. Mary Wilson were united in marriage by U. s. Commissioner c. E. Weber at the court house Monday evening. A number of friends of the contracting parties were present, and following the ceremony showered the bridal couple with rice. Between the courthouse and the electric light plant enough rice was thrown away to have fed a Chinese colony for a month. If Herbert Hoover had witnessed this wanton waste of perfectly good food he would have sought for an injunction against any further weddings in Wrangell unless this particular phase of matrimonial activity could be dispensed with.
