AGED SQUAW REVEALS HER EXPERIENCES TO
 JUNEAU EDITOR; AVERTS STRANGE MASSACRE

ship had been withdrawn from Sitka some months before and the lily advised Katlean and his warriors were confident that they had things Ill their own way when woman appeared in their midst. This was something never before heard of, for women were taboo in the council house where only men were fit to sit or even be seen. But Mary was there and she made her presence known in a speech that caused the dusky countenances of the others present to blanche with fear. Mary told them what would happen if they where Uncle Sam's soldiers were as the sands of seashore in the matter of numbers; that Uncle Sam had canoes and that, in the event his people were slain, those soldiers and those warships would disappear sud denly and soon and that every In dian who participated in the slaugh- l ter would be lined up and shot.
 The picture Mary presented was rather lurid one but it had the eff 1 feet she intended. Katlean and his braves sullenly needed the advice of the little squaw and the intended massacre never occurred.
 l A debt Unpald
 The foregoing is a brief history of Mary Thlantich, an aged and somewhat stopped squaw, who left Juneau recently for her home in Sit ka, where she supports herself by making and selling moccasins. She has a rather pleasant face and a bright, twinkling eye. She had not, previous to three weeks ago, ever been in Juneau, with which she was very much pleased She arrived in time to visit the late fair and to her it was the biggest thing ever seen. She hopes to return for a visit next summer.
 No public recognition of Mary Thlantich has ever been made and none would imagine on seeing her that more than 100 white human lives and double that number of h. dian lives had been saved by her timely and fearless intervention 45 years ago.
 Uncle Sam and common humanity owe Mary Thlantich debt that has never even been recognized and prob ably never will be. In the mean time the humble little old Indian woman strains her failing eyes while with her gnarled hands she manu- factures moccasins, from the sale of which she ekes out a mere existence
