.TWENTY-ONE
 YEARS AGO

lished in Wrangell, Alaska, on July 25, 1907:
 The open season for deer com mences one week from today. Somebody tells us they have a new heiress at s. S. Kincaid's.
 A new roof is going on Bruno Grief's Brewery Saloon building.
 Dandy and Lloyd are excavating for their new Front Street building.
 Dr. Shurick came over from Kla- wack on the Pacific.
 Mrs. Kate Nelson has been taking the round trip above on the Dolphin with young lady from Idaho.
 Dr. H. c. Devighne will leave Wrangell about August 1 for Doug las.
 Pauline Snyder made the round trip to Klawack in the Challenge last week.
 Manager L. P. Hunt of Shakan was over this week. They have up 10,- 900 cases of reds.
 Mayor P. c. Mccormack was pas senger for Seattle by the last Hum- boldt.
 Miss May Sylvester went to Seat tie on the Humboldt to meet her aunt, Mrs. Samuel Sylvester. 
 During the short run of salmon over about Summit Island, Svinseth and Johansen are staying in town.
 Ole Johnson and John Olsen have have been over looking after their Ground Hog claims for some days.
 The Far Niente left about noon, Monday, for Mill Creek with the crew of miners for Glacier Basin. Ketchikan now has a miners union, which starts out with a mem- bership of 250. Let the good work proceed.
 The familiar face and form of Pat Loftus is again seen on our streets, he having come home from Ketchi- kan for month or two, at least.
 Ed Lyons made a trip down the back channel in his launch last Sat urday, taking Oryille Palmer and others to the Bradfield logging camp.
 Jesse Crowell is shingling Walter c. Waters residence, and has found it pretty warm work these sunny days.
 The Wrangell Shingle Co. mill is running steadily these days, cutting in the neighborhood of 30,000 finest shingles daily. An addition is being built on the east end of the mill, to be used for a filing room.
 Mrs. J. F. Collins and little Pa teince left for below last week to join MT. Collins, who, it is reported, will associate himself with W. D. McNair in the general merchandise business at Anacortes, Wash. A reporter was out through the Dry Straits last week. George Card recently moved out there with his steam logging outfit, and now has a raft containing 100000 feet of fine logs.
 The Santa Rosa brought the report of the wrecking of the steamer Co., lumbia, which took place off the Cal ifornia coast recently. The steamer was struck amidships by big lumber laden steam schooner and sank in two minutes with one hundred pas sengers.
 For some days, recently, the run of fish was quite poor, and the work of the canneries lax. But last week the numbers increased and the faces of the cannerymen now wear a broader smile. The "humpies" the starting in good shape. That rumor to the effect that Ed Weber had been jailed at Ketchikan for telling fish lies turned out to be only canard matched in the minds of Marshal Grant, L. c. Patenaude and N. J. Svinseth, all of whom are envious of MT. Weber's angling skill. W. S. Simpson and another gentle man left up the Stikine for Tele- graph Creek last Saturday. Mr. Simpson had been helping to survey line from Telegraph Creek to Whitehorse and was going home by this route.
 Deputy Prosecuting Attorney w. A. Barnhill was in town during the week looking into the character and getting a consensus of opinion as to whether A. V. R. Snyder is fit per-. son to remain on earth, and also
