 All persons knowing themselves behind in their subscription are re- quested to pay NOW. The little price does not amount to a great deal to each delinquent, but the aggregate would enable us to replace the DOT ton of the plant which was burned with a far better outfit. We need the money. and need it badly, and We feel sure that our subscribers will pay up gladly.
 The Sentinel comes out in an ab- breviated form because there is no cable connecting Wrangell with the rest of the world. Had there been cable we could have telegraphed for a roller to replace what was lost and the paper would have come out full-sized. We hope that the fire will have some effect on the war depart ment and that the cable will be ex- tended to Wrangell and Ketchikan in the near future.
 In publishing the list of losers by the fire in last weeks issue, we in- adverdently failed to mention MT George Barnes whose fine residence on Front street was destroyed, to- gether with lot of household ef' fects. c. Denny also lost household goods which went up with the smoke of the McKinnon building. Several citizens had goods stored in the two warehouses, and these were also burned.
 The burnt district of our little town presents quite different ap' pearance than week ago. The sec ond day after the fire several of oui business men got the debris cleared away, and today F. w. Carlyon Lynch & Grant, Donald Sinclair and P. c. Jensen are conducting business at their new buildings, c. Denny hal couple of tents fixed up for res taurant, and M. Haley is rebuilding on the site of his former store. Do not get excited, but keep your eyt on this town, and before long yor l will see the burnt section covered with substantial buildings.
