LOCAL SOLDIER SONG WRITER

Andrew s. Evans, 2 member of the local detachment of the q Infantry and at present the proprietor of. the Broadway Tailor Shop, is also a suc- cessful song writer. His latest attemp. Tine Shiver" will soon be placed ol. the market. The words of this song maSe it prominently song of tn. north and it will undoubtedly make a big hit with every person who has ev- CT lived in Alaska. The music for the sorg was composed by Edouard Hes selDerg the same musician who wrot. the nation wide success, "America my Country. The music is of the jag. class, full of pep and action. Mrs. Nc Neer, Stewards premier musician was .ne first Alaskan to play this song, She pronounced the music and wordI: excellent and stated that it was con. sid ,rab.y better than the majority o, such songs now being published. We predict a big success for the new song and congratulate MT. Evans on his

RgD HE KNOW. .a
 WE'LL SAY HE DID

",s-",.
 Ring" the black and white dog who belonged to Mrs. F. B. Wood is dead. To those people who did not know Ring, his death will mean nothing but the passing of another dog, but to us Seward people, young and old, the death of "Ring" means the world old tradgedy of 8 broken heart. He did not die of old age, neither was he removed by violent means. He deliberately stasyed himself to death. Grief, caus- ed by the knowledge that his mistress was compelled through circumstances to leave him behind in Seward was the direct cause of the faithful animals death. He knew that he was to be left behind, knew it two weeks ago, on the day Mrs. Wood decided that she must So to California to join her invalid husband. "Ring," who was always with Mrs. Wood, heard her, on the day she decided to leave, telling one of her close friends about the trip she was planning and about how bad she felt because it was impossible for her to take "Ring" with her. He was listen ing and from his subsequent actions he evidently understood every word of the conversation. To him it was a death blow. The only person in the world whom he loved was about to ls6ve hin friendless and alone. Silent ly he grieved. He refused to eat. Day by day he grew more gaunt and shad- owy. Day by day he grew weaker and 'uore pitiful looking. The choicest mor- sels of food were placed before him. He was petted and coaxed, but to no avail His heart was broken. His spirit gone. There was nothing left for him to live for. On Sunday, three hours before Mrs. Wood sailed on the $. s. Northwestern, poor Ring closed his eyes for the last time. His dog spirit left the poor, wasted body for the place where dog spirits go. "Ring" was just common, ordinary specimen of dog, but his heart was true and his love sincere for the woman who had treated him kindly. Some people wha read +his little story will say "Hulnr'" he was just a dog. It was simply a coincidence his dying when he di' He was sick, that's all. Possi- ply it was a coincidence. Possibly he was sick and would have died on Sun: day whether Mrs. Wood went or stay ed, but the fact remains that his sick ness dated from the very hour when he learned that Mrs. Wood was leav- ng ana his death occurred three hours before she sailed south. A dog is mere, ly a dog to most people. but there are 'aa'ne among us who know, particular ly those who own a dog, that while a dog is merely a dog, it is at the same timc the most sincere and unselfish friend we have in the world. "Ring' Was a dog. Merely a black and white dog, but he loved his mistress better than anything else in the world. "Dog Ring died of . broken heart
