OLD-TIMER GOES SOUTH

Whit ney who was a resident of Juneau g years ago at which time he was connected with the electric lighting system, was passenger on the Princess Alice this morning bound for Seattle and Tacoma. For the past twenty years MT Whitney has resided at Whitehorse where the firm of Whitney x Pedlar has been household word all that time. Eff teen years or more ago the firm became interested in the Copper King mining claim and later secured all interests in that property. In 1907 the claim was worked for sev 8ral months but closed down as the vein or ore appeared to pinch out Nothing was done on the property until last year when it was further prospected with the result that a large vein of high grade ore was located and blocked out and shipping has been regularly carried on with great profit to the owners ever since. It is in connection with his mining interests that MT Whitney is now making the trip Outside.

 In the venerable chieftain's pos session are also letters from for mer residents of the United States, among them being one from E-Presi- dent Taft, thanking him for pair of buckskin pants which he sent to him in 1902 (The letter does not state whether the pants were of sufficient breadth of beam to fit the writer or not) Another letter in the possession of the old chief is one from The Colonel written while he was president.
 Seevral other letters are much cherished by the recipient, among them being epistles from various Governors of Alaska and command CTS of different army posts in the Territory, all of which express ap- the whites by Antaa Haach The old man takes great pride in show ing his old letters and a more ex- tended story of them and their as sociations would be very readable and interesting.

army and navy will do their part, then
we can make sure Of a victory for
America and her allies by acting as q
