THIS EVE IS
 ONE OF MlRTH

This eve is Halloween. Upon this night mirth and revelry among the younger people is supposed to pre- vail. In the past it has been the custom of those more mischieviOusly inclined to remove gates, wagons CT anything movable, to distant parts from their original location, leaving the owner the pleasant task of find ing and restoring them to their prop CT places.
 Halloween is the name popularly given to the eve or vigil of All Hal lows, or festival of All Saints, which falls on the first of November, Hal loween being the evening of the 31st of October. The fireside revelries usually observed on that evening are the survivals of the festival of Pc mona, on the first of November.

MRS. TACKSTROM
 WAS FRIEND OF
 LITTLE ORPHANS

llrs. 0. E. Tacksuom, of Ruby, and one of the victims of the found orng of the Princess Sophia, was the Ruby representative of the Alaska Committee for the FaJherless Child ren oI France, and thru her efforts many Iatherle.s little ones have been provided for. During the first part of this year Mrs Tackstrom sent, on behalf of the Ruby sunday school, se,enJy-thrre dollars for the support of two French orphans for one year, sending several amounts for the fund later, and only last week the chair man of the fund received the second seyenty-three dollars for the support of the children for the second year, Accompanying the money order was the following letter from Mrs. Tack strom:
 As a last effort, before leaving for the Outside, 1 am enclosing P, NJ. 0. for $73.OO which is to support the first two French orphans adopted by the Ruby Sunday school for another year.
 Il hope to be abe to do my share toward the support of the French orphans and the Red Cross when we set established, and will write you where We will be located. MT. Tack strom is still interested in the lum- Der business here and will come back to Ruby for the summer. It is doubtful ii l ever return, &5 1 want to get the children into the schools"
 Never ceasing were her thots for those in distress far over the seas, and tho the orphans may never know the name of the beautiful, stately, kind and generOus-hearted woman thru whose efforts they are enjoying d few oi the necessaries of life, she will ever live in the hearts and af- factions of those who knew and loved her in this great NOrthland

 At the present time about ten out fits are engaged in sinking to bed rock and it is stated that about half of Brooks is going to be on the ground before many days. Some time ago it was prognosticated by mem bers of geological survey that gold would be found in this vicinity as all indications of a gold bearing strata had been found The late discovery bears out the statement. Those who are interested in the new discovery believe that another good paystreak will be uncovered.

BALL PLAYER IS
 AMONG MISSING

Among the names of those identi- fled of the dead recovered from the wreck of the Princess Sophia appears that of William Albert Smith. Smith will be remembered by the people of Fairbanks as the peppery young catcher of the Fairbanks team, bet ter known as "Smithy." The young man was on his way Outside to en- list.
 The identifying of the young man helped Clear up the doubt existing as to whether the George Howey" mentioned among the missing is not John HoWie, the Fairbanks carpen- ter. Howie is the grandfather of Smith and took the same boat out of Fairbanks as did the young man. It is assumed that they travelled to- gether to the states and undoubtedly both were on the ill-fated boat at the time of the sinking.
