MISSIONARY AND ] WIFE MAKE LONG
 TRIP BY D0G TEAM

The Reverend Wm. A. Thomas, Epis- copal Missionary stationed at T1gara on Point Hope in the Arctic, accompa- nied by his wife, arrived in Seward on tae last train Rev. and Mrs. Thomas made the long trip from Tigara to Ne mana by dog team, a distance of over thousand miles, requiring twenty-seV- en days travelling.
 Rev. Thomas followed the mail trail from Tigara to Kotzebue and then east to Shungnak At Shungnak the mail route ends. After leaving this place The Rev. Thomas and wife set out across virgin country, without trail to guide them until reaching Alatna. Instead of continuing east from Shung- nak to Alatna which is the usual route they journey south across the headwa- ters of the Selawik river, across Zane Pass, striking the Koyuk river at the head of Treat island. They continued up the Koyuk to Hughes City and Alat- na. At Alatna they picked up the mail trail which was followed into Fort Gibbon and up the Tanana to Nenana.
 In speaking of the trip Rev. Thomas said, we made the long distance in easy stages. The longest run me made was 67 miles. The weather was ideal and my wife and I fully enjoyed the trip. In crossing the headwaters of the Selawik we struck some splendid hot springs at which place we rested four days, despite the fact that we were faced with the possibility of running short of provisions. We left our dogs at Nenana and some,.me within the year we shall go back over the same route"
 Tigara on Point Hope is one of the most important Eskimo settlements in the Arctic. There are about 400 Eski- mos at that Point MT. Thomas wife are now on a furlough for a year and in their absence the mission at Ti- gara will be in charge of native as sistant named Tony Jewell.
 The TigaTa postoffice receives four mails year, three of which are deliv- cred in the winter. This mail now si dispatched down the Yukon to Kaltag, Unalakleet and across the Seward pc ninsula and north along the coast to Tigara and Point Barrow
 Mr Thomas declares that this serv- ice can be greatly improved by mail route from Alatna to Shungnak and down the Kobuk river. The only trail work required to dispatch the mail by this route would be between Alatna and Shungnak. Following this route mail could be delivered to the impor- tant settlements on the Kobuk river, Tigara and Barrow in six weeks less time than by the route followed at the present time
 MT. and Mrs Thomas will leave on the steamship Northwestern for an ex- tended visit in the States and expect to return to their post in the north next spring.

matter (Which Is unlikely, as it was a
| private fight) there is only one way for
an expert sleuth TO find the real culprit.
He can secure the measurements of the
| spike marks In Shinners's head and
compare them with the spikes worn by
all the baseball players in the lot
The best story of the battle is told by
a witness who does not want his name
used. George Smith. who used to be a
Giant, came out of the field a little
peevish at having been knocked silly by
the Giant batters. AS he entered. the
space before the clubhouse McGraw sa-
luted him with some casual CONVERSE
tion.
Talked About Weather.
What Mr.. McGraw probably said was
Hot, isn't 1t. GeorgeT'
To which Mr.. Smith probably retorted-
ut isn't the heat, John. it's the hu-
midity." Whereupon the trouble started.
This exchange has started bigger fights
SINNERS was eager enough to intervene.
Since he was struck on the head by
Smith at Philadelphia SINNERS has been
displaced as centerfielder in favor of
Casey Stengel. who got the chance dur
ing the convalescence Of SINNERS.
When the customers out in the ball
park saw the platoon of Philadelphia
players scooting along the line Of the
fences toward the clubhouse they sensed
the fact that replica of the battle of
Dublin was going on somewhere. Judge
Lands. who was seated in q field box,
looked interested. Charles A. Stone
ham, shifting the smoke of battle, moved
toward, the scene as fast as his bunions
would permit.
But 1t was over almost as soon as II
started. The constabulary had the par
t!cipants separated into their own club
house before any friends or relatives
could reach the battle field. A rigid
censorship was Immediately established.
First aid was given to the knuckles of
Smith. the head of SINNERS and the
dignity Of John Joseph McGraw.
Many exaggerated stories are about
concerning the battle. One excited Gus
toner says that he peeked through 4 slit
in the bleachers and saw the gray head
OF John Joseph McGraw bobbing about
in the thick of the carnage below like
the helmet of Navarro. Others say that
and SINNERS exchanged right hooks at
fifteen yards and shouted, "Desist, gem
tlemen. l beg Of you desist."
This Is as good version as any It
is to be regretted that Mr.. McGraw
failed in his first effort as a peace
maker. The fight. or whatever 1t was,
occurred off the field, therefore does
not come under the Jurisdiction of Judge
Lands. All the same the Judge looked
bit regretful at having arrived after
the constabulary had cl ared up the
debris.
