CHAPTER XXI.
A Sunday Spectacle.

Trouble with the tribes was well
grown before it was recognized. Dis
affection was ripe, the bucks were
like wine. Few Of the braves had
dreamed Of ever possessing sums of
money such as they drew down each
Sunday morning. Rickard began to
suspect liquor again. In the Indian
camp Sunday was day of feasting,
followed by a gorged sleep; the next
day one Of languor, of growing inco-
'hesion.
Richard spoke of 1t to Coronel.
Like small baby" hunched the old
shoulders. "Happy baby. Pretty soon
STOP"
With the next wages went a repri-
mand, then a warning. Still followed
bad Mondays. Richard then issued a
formal warning to all the tribes.
1.-THE situation with the Indians Is
serious" said Rickard to MacLean.
They're getting liquor In here. some
way, the Lord only knows how. Any
way, they're not fit for burning Mon
day morning. I've just sent them word
by Coronel that it's got to quit, or they
do"
Suppose they do3" MacLean was
startled. Not an Indian could be
spared at that stage of the game.
"Bluffl" Rickard got up. "They
won't take the chance Of losing that
money. I'm off now to the Crossing.
I'll leave you In charge here"
The next morning Wooster broke In
to the ramada where MacLean sat
clicking his typewriter.

Something About the Grand Lodge Which Will Convene Tonight in the Moose
 Hall.
HAS MANY MEMBERS
The Alaska Order Is AffllI- ated With Yukon Body. Past President Gives
 Out Some Facts.

Practically the entire Legislature will be present at the meeting in Moose Hall tonight when the Grand Igloo of the Pioneers of Alaska is called to order. since the most Of them are members and hold proxies from subordinate lodges. Most like ly there will be but little business the first evening outside of appoint ing committee on credentials.
 "The preamble of the Pioneers of Alaska, said Frank A. Aldrich to day lis probably the shortest of any organization known. It is:
 Unite the Pioneers of Alaska and by permanent organization present the names of all Alaska pion. eers on its roll; to collect and pre- serve the literature and incidents of Alaska history, and to promote the best interests of Alaska
 Article ", Section 1, says: The Grand Igloo shall be the legislative and judicial body of the Pioneers
 Section 2 It shall have power to grant dispensations and charters and to suspend or revoke the same; to provide rules and regulations for the grand and subordinate Igloos, and to prescribe the ceremonies. "The only obligation prescribed in initiation is, I will do all in my power to promote the best interests of Alaska
 Those eligible to membership are white male Alaskans who were in Alaska prior to January 1st., 1900, and whose interests have been domi nantly identified with Alaska since that time.
 There are now 16 Igloos in Alas ka, with a probable membership Of 4,00O on the roll, including the Yukon Order of Pioneers, which retains it's name, but affiliates with the subor dinate Igloos throughout Alaska.
 "Igloo No. 1 is at Nome, No. 9 at Candle and No. at St. Michael was organized in 1907. Delegates from the three named Igloos organiz- ed the Grand Lodge in 1908 at Nome During the seven years following it was rough sledding to get other sec tions of Alaska interested to start the Grand Igloo in it's wandering journey. However, since that time there is no mountain too high or trail too rough for the Grand Igloo or it's members to travel"
 F. A. Aldrich is the Past Grand President of the Order.
