FATHER ALLARD TAKES
 SICK BOY TO HOSPITAL

Rev Father J. AIlard returned from Telegraph Creek last week bringing with him Charles Jackson, an eleven year old Indian boy whom he was taking to a hospital in Van- couver.
 Father Allard reports that in ma k ing the rounds of the parish at Tele- graph Creek, he found Charlie Jack son in most pitiful condition with no one to care for him but his four teen year old sister.
 About year ago the boy had his knee injured by fall and not having had the proper care his whole leg be- came affected and was full of pus His long months of suffering during the past year had so emaciated him that he was most pitiful sight.
 When Father Allard saw the boy he realized that something had to be done without delay if the boys life was to be saved. Therefore he took it upon himself to take the boy to a hospital in Vancouver.
 Father Allard states that the De- partment of Indian Affairs of Canada has the reputation of doing its duty in cases of this kind, and has no doubt that when the merits of this case are brought to the attention of the department the boys hospital expenses will be assumed by the do- minion.
 Father Allard says that since he took hold q. the case he has met with whole-hearted cooperation. Before leaving on the Princess Louise Tues day evening he requested the Sentin- el to state that he acknowledges with much appreciation the kindness of the following persons: Capt. Sid Harrington, who brought the boy to Wrangell from Telegraph Creek free of charge; Little Jackson and wife who took the boy into their house while he was in Wrangell awaiting a southbound steamer; Mrs. s. D. Grant, the community nurse; Dr and Mrs. S. c. Shurick.
 The Father also stated that flow CTS and dainties were sent in by diff ferent persons, and that he also re- ceived several donations of money to pay the boys steamship fare from Wrangell to Vancouver.

the first eight years of his business
life in Bismarck:
"Be he ever SO gifted in language,
no one can ever hope in the feeble
word at his command to adequately
describe the glory of the life and
character of our departed friend, A.
w. Lucas.
1T is as though, in the twilight OF
evening, one should strive to des-
cribe the glory and splendor of the
sun at midday, for. as the sun At
midday SO always stood A. w. Lucas,
in our midst to illumine US in our
perplexities, to aid and counsel us
in our doubts, and to tighten the
hearts of all who came within the
circle of his inspiring and genial in.
fluence. No greater honor could be
desired than to be admittedly num-
bered among his friends, for his eX-
actions were high. To him there was
never but one course-that was
straight. His ideals of right were fix
ed, yet withal he was most charitable
in his judgment of those who really
tried. even though they partially fail
ed. Where the sacrifice of principle
was involved A. w. Lucas was cas-:
steel. but an appeal to his sympathies
found him as gentle rs q child, gen.
erous of his time, prodigal of his
means. Pages would be required e
recount his services, to friends, city
and nation; noble outstanding fig
ure at all times in all places.
Gle has been taken from US in the
full richness of his manhood and all
must mourn their irreparable loss
but he is Joined with those he loved
who have gone before him, and is now
eternally at rest in the divine pres
ence of his Maker. having heard the
words of welcome hoped for by those
who have won the prize of immor-
tally. We'll done, thou good and
