MRS. W, HAWAIIAN DEAD AFTER TEN DAYS ILLNESS
Popular Woman Succumbed Last Night from Effects
 of Childbirth.

Mrs. Walter ;. Manahan died at 9 o'clock last night, followed SC rious illness dating from the birth of her son on Thursday August 25. Mrs. Manahan, was the wife of Walter J. Manahan, cashier in the office of the Pacific Steamship Company and Exalted Ruler of the local Elks Lodge.
 Mrs. Manahan first came to Ju- neau in 1915 as Miss Jane Brenne- man and was teacher in the public schools. She was married to MT. Manahan at Seattle on June 8, 1918. She was born at North Lib- erty, Pa, on January 10, 1887 and her parents and brothers and sisters still live there.
 Both MT. and Mrs. Manahan have many friends in Juneau who were shocked to hear of the untimely death of the wife and mother. The case is made more sad by the fact that it was thought that she would recover and seemed to be improving yesterday. The little son is said to be in very good health.
 Details of the death have been wired to Mrs. Manahan's relatives who live at North Liberty, Pa, and it is probable that they may wish the remains to be taken there for burial. No announcement of the funeral can be made until they have been heard from.
