As a reward for long and faithful service rendered the Carstens com pany in Alaska, E. F. Kurtz, for the last three years manager of the local Carstens Packing company, has been promoted to assume charge of one of the large Carsten meat markets in the City of Seattle. Word to this eff feet was officially received yesterday. A new manager is being sent to take over the Seward store and should ar rive on one of the next steamers from the South.

 The transfer is right in line with the wishes of MT. Kurtz. He has been looking forward to a change for some months, having been bitten with States bug" Then again Mrs. Kurtz's folks reside in Seattle which makes the move very desirable. Na- turally, MT. Kurtz said he disliked the thought of severing relations with his many friends in Seward and this district hut the nr0mOtiOn is so al- turing, financially and otherwise, he cannot refuse Anyway, whenever Seward people come down to Seattle he wants them to drop in and see him.

MINERS ARE PASSED
 IN JUNEAU MINE
MANY MEN ON DAY SHIFT ARE TRAPPED BY EXPLOSION OF
 MORNING BLAST

l Twenty men were in St. Ann's hos pital and several more were believed to be trapped in one of three levels of the Alaska Juneau mine, the result of being gassed after 300 cases of dy- namite were set off one morning last week, according to the Juneau Elm pire.
 Due to the atmospheric conditions the gas caused by the charge follow ed a downward course through the three levels, trapping nearly all the men on the day shift. Many of the men were in favorable positions and | had no chance to come in contact with the gas, but others were directly in the path of attack and were uncon- scious when found.
 The most seriously gassed were: 
 A. Fureby, T. Guerboff, E. Rode, l.. O'Brien, J. Radovich, J. Austin, F. Carl, II Rodenberg, B. Davis, B. James, D. Perrin, J. Vlass, J. Parez, Ed Patterson, A. Riendeau, M. Hena- han and Pete Nicholson.
 The last man on the foregoing list arrived at the hospital shortly before 2:3O, and at that time was uncon- scious and asked for A. Reindeau, mine foreman, who brought him from the mine to safety.

Ancnt Bob Quinn

when Bob quinn took over the
Boston Red Sox he was hopeful that
at the end Of his third year he would
have made it apparent that his team
was going somewhere
No one in all the world is. more dis
appointed at the failure of his efforts
than Quinn himself.
Despite the fact that he has spent
close to half million dollars for ball
players, he hasn't as yet gathered the
nucleus, for winning team.
Regardless of the many reverses that
have beset him since taking charge OF
the Boston club Quinn still retains
his sense of humor.
Near the close of this season one of
his scouts wired as tc whether Quinn
thought it advisable for him to make
a trip to Denver, Colo, and look over
the players taking part in a big base
| bali tournament in that section.
'I should say not" wired Quinn, 1--WE
have plenty of tournament players on
the Boston club as it stands"

IT'S Tough Task

Ken Williams, who a few years back
took the home run crown temporarily
away from Babe Ruth, has got an en-
tirely new slant on baseball this sea-
sen.
For various reasons Williams has
been on the bench much of the year
trying to earn his salary in the role
of pinch hitter. II
When he was regular and hitting
the ball hard, Williams says he always
looked on the job of pifich hitter as
soft one. A lone season in that role
has caused him to change his mind.
Recently, after he had popped up
with couple of runners on the bases,
he remarked to me:
pinch hitting is the toughest job
in baseball. Without moments warn
ing you are pulled from the bench cold
to face some star pitcher who is going
at top speed.
I'm nine cases out of ten the situa-
tion is just as the name pinch hitter
implies, the old pinch. Naturally you
are frightened UP and a batter never
does his best unless he is natural.
IT would rather play fer $4,000 as d
regular than get $4,000 as pinch
hitter"

George Turns Jester

Likewise the past season has been
none too pleasant for Manager George
Sisler Of the St. Louis Browns. Despite
this, George pulled a funny one during
the final week of the season that got
a laugh all around.
AS rule there are always four or
five players in the bullpen, ready to
warm up for any emergency that might
present itself.
Late in one of the games with the
washington club, Manager Sisler, de-
string pinch hitter, decided to use
Hargrave. Noticing he wasn't on the
bench he looked in the direction of the
bullpen in left field, where Hargrave
was sitting all by himself
Attracting Hargrave's attention, Sis
Ter motioned for him to come in. With
several players on the bench there is
often doubt as to who is wanted,
yet absent -mindedly Hargrave yelled:
do you want me, manager?" Where
upon Sisler, without cracking a. smile,
called back:
Sure, but if you see anyone else out
there who will help win this ball game,
bring 'em in too"
Then it was that the absurdity of the
situation dawned on Hargrave as he
realized he was all alone.
