J. J. McTague Almost Dies From
 Exposure

J. J. McTague who has been on the West Coast for some time had a frightful experience last week which almost cost him his life. He was bringing mail over the portage from Chombley to Sulzer. He did not arrive on schedule time. After waiting for him a reasonable time alarm was felt for his safety. A searching party was organized at Sulzer. Mir. McTague whose eyesight is very poor, had been caught in a severe'snow storm in one of the most dangerous localities in soutn- eastern Alaska. The searching party found him in an exhausted condition almost frozen to death. There was a terrible gale and it is certain that he would not have lived till morning had he not been found.
 He was taken home and thawed out. The party then went back to look for a Japanese whom Mir. McTague stated was also on the trail. The Japanese was found in an old barn freezing to death. He was so grateful to his deliverers that he wanted to give them all the money he had. The horse was also found with the mail bag tied to the saddle.
 Mir. McTague when found had traveled 20 miles in one of the winter. More than four feet ot snow fell in A hours.

Takes Unto Himself a Wife

Ludwig Berg on Monday re- G wed a cablegram from his son, John. stating that he had mar ria1 in Seattle. The news came a. . complete surprise to the Berg fam fly, as the young man had not given any intimation in his letters that he intended doing anything rash.
 John Berg left Wrangell in July for Seattle where he enlisted in the navy. Last week he was honorably discharged from the navy. but Johnnie is the kind of fellow who, as soon as he gets outof one thing, gets into another. He is scarcely grown, but having reached mans estate he was too wise to make the mistake of fool ing away any further time in single cussedness. The natural supposition is that Mir. and Mrs. Berg will come to Wrangell in the near future. They will receive a hearty welcome from Johnnie's many friends, both old and young, especially the young, who never fail to tender newlyWeds a tin can serenade.
 So far as known Johnnie will be the only Wrangell soldier boy to return in any way incapacita- ted. But he will come out all right He is a Moose, and any lad who can go through Moose initiation can withstand the rol- liae pins of married 'life.44sse.

The Flu Reappears
Tea bl gram
Juneau, Dec. 16. National Council of Defense, .

Juneau, Dec. 16. National Council of Defense, Wrangell.
 The following wire just received from the National Council of De- fense:
 disappearance of epidemic of influenza now threatened in many parts of country. The Surgeon- General of United States Public Health, however, has issued a warning. The epidemic persists widely. Everywhere epidemic and other abnormal conditions created by war has left millions of people particularly susceptible to disease. Risks are aggravated by the fact that medical and sani- tary facilities have been depleted to meet war needs and cannot be restored to normal for some time nor without concerted effort. In view of emergency we recommend that the entire forces of the state division of the Women's Commit tee be thrown back of the Public Health authorities. Intensive work locally with individuals is especially called for to guard the population during the coming winter. All your branch councils should therefore be instructed to bring together under definite working arrangements represen- tatives of all local agencies touch ing health, and to put at their joint disposal facilities for each entire community"
 The usual watchfulness and care of health is urged upon each individual.
 w. A. Clark,
 Chairman Territorial Council of
 Defense.

The publisher of the Sentinel received a letter from Alfred Berg this week in which he states that the boys at Ft- Seward are drilling every day. He says it was pretty lonely when the quar- antine was on but that he is much more contented now since he can go to Haines every day. He gave no intimation as to what was the attraction at Haines, so we are wondering if it is a blonde or brunette.
