UP-T P-THE-RIVER PENALTY FAILS TO DAUNT KISKA
 SHE'S IN CLOVER NOW

When Kiska. thoroughbred Sib- erian husky dog of F. G. Hanford was sentenced "up-the-river" for killing a eat. Kiska took matters into her own paws and refused to pay the penalty. More than thirty days. after running away from Balls ranch on the upper Stikine River. Kiska was back home in her yard at Wrangeu making up for lost meals over piles of bones and (of all things) fresh meat.
 It all started around the first Of August when Kiska saw a cat crossing the street. She didut realize that folks like their eat pets as well as dogs and after she had dispatched the cat to where all good kittys go. owners filed a com paint and Kiska was forthwith us aboard the Hazel B 8 and taken up the Stikine River 160 miles to George Balls Diamond ranch.
 George and Agnes Ball were good to Wrangells out-law-iu-dis- grace but Kiska decided she didn't want to change her citizenship. 4 day or two later she disappeared.
 Bert Gallus, who to Kiska, is as much her family as the Hanfords made a trip up the river to find her but Kiska was really gone. No amount of search or calling had any effect and MT. Gallus returned dispirited and glum It didn't help much either when veteran uappers and river men said "Oh well, the wolves probably have goC her by now"
 Last Monday afternoon Ed Kal- kins was coming down the river and saw a wolf on shore standing eyeing his boat He pulled over toward the beach with visions of a twenty-dollar bounty in mind But as he approached the wolf" start ed to wag her bushy plume of a tail and Kalbins recognized-Kis- ka. She didn't need coaXing to get aboard the boat and two hours was safe in her own yard across from Union Oil Station gnawing bones.
 It would be difficult to tell who was happiest at the joyful re union - Kiska, Hanford or Gallus.
 It is estimated that Kiska trav- eled about 125 miles from Balls to Andrews Creek where she was picked up. But the remarkable part is that it is through some of the widest country to be found. No habitation, no trails, and cross ed by rapid-running icy rivers and streams.
 Probably, in actual miles, tho dog travelled more than five times that far over moutainns and down ravines. Despite her dis tinct aversion to water, and espe- cially cold water, she must have swan rapid rivers and followed their banks looking for a crossing.
 All together, it was quite a trip for a dog to make - just to get home. She lost a lot of weight and probably spent many nights curled under the root of big tree listen- ing to the wolves howl. But her loyalty and perseverance paid off she's in the clover now with bones and - meat!

THROUGH TILE SENTINEL RERISCOPE

Territorial Treasurer Oscar G. Olson this week notified Territor- ial Auditor Frank A. Boyle to draw no more warrants for the present against the treasury's gen eral fund which was down to S22,11O.04 as of September 15. On September 30 there would be a Territorial payroll of apporoxi- mately $120,0O0 to be met out of the general fund. On other words. unless some $1OO.0OO drifted in in tax money during the last two weeks of September there would not be enough money to meet the payroll at the end of the month. , There was no special revenue for the general fund expected. Mis- cellaneous tax money would come in but whether it would reach S1OO,000 in that short time was speculative. Next month, October the Territory could look forward to some liquor tax money. possibly as much as $35O,00O, which could carry it for a while, but at the moment, thanks to the failure of the last Legislature to balance the budget, the Territory's general fund which pays the bills, was in the red to the tune of around S10O.OOO.

Dairy men also were starting to get up against a similar problem. If the strike lasted much longer and no emergency shipping was forth coming slaughter of stock was q likely step Plan to have emerg- ency ships operated by the Alaska Railroad until the strike is set tied has been advanced but noth- ing had come of it at mid-week. Under the plan ships would be loaded for Alaska at Tacoma where AFL lOngshoremen are not effected by the strike.
