DOUGLAS, Jan. 9. ? The Catholic
Club will hold its regular meeting to
night at the Club House. All mem
bers are urged to attend as there are
several interesting matters to be dis
cussed.
Mae McCormick is able to be out
again after a week's seige of la grippe.
Gabriel Paul, a clerk in the Tread
well store, has been sick for the past
? week.
Oscar Johnson, manager of the
Treadwell butcher shop, will leave for
the Last on the next trip of the Jef
ferson. He has been manager of the
shop at Treadwell for a number of
years, and is well liked by all who
know him. His return to Douglas
will be welcomed by all. A young man
from the States is coming up to take
Manager Johnson's place, during his
absence.
Luther Chambers, of Chambers
Pros, the well known Douglas butch
ers. will go south in a week or so. on
a trip in connection with the firm's
business.
The Knights of Pythias will hold
: their regular meeting this evening,
and all members are requested to at
tend.
The Douglas laundry is kept busy
: these days as it is now the only one
doing business here.
The steamer Dolphin docked at
(Treadwell at 12 o'clock today, with a
heavy cargo, and a large amount of
m til. She arrived at Douglas later
ir. the afternoon.
Mrs. Jame3 Stoody and daughter
Helen returned on the Dolphin after
a lengthy visit in the East.
Mrs. Cornwal is sick at her home in
Douglas of la grippe.
; At the Orpheum last night was one
of the very best shows of the season.
! "Dante's Inferno" was certainly all
that was claimed for it. It is a master
piece from an artistic standpoint and
was well rece ived by the large crowd
present. All those who were not
there should go tonight and avail
themselves of the opportunity to wit
ness this wonderful picture. The?
uisical comedy made a big hit and
? sent the crowd out laughing and say-1
! !ng they had their money's worth.'

? I night.

A LIGHTHOUSE
THAT IS NEEDED
The bill introduced in Congress the
other day appropriating $125,000 for
the construction of a lighthouse at
j Cape St. Elias will meet the appro
bation of not only sea-faring men, but
of all persons who have to travel
, along that tempestuous coast.
\ "Big Stone," which is the local
? name for the cape, is a commanding
, as well as a dangerous point on the
| southern coast, and mariners have
? been asking for many years that light
house be constructed there.
Very frequently the weather is
1 stormy in that section and Cape St.
! Elias cannot be "picked up" by navi
| gators. A lighthouse there would be
1 an aid to navigation in all kinds of
i weather.
JAMES McCLOSKEY

:l ?
Wm. .Meyers has just had a letter
from James McCloskey, who has re
turned to Seattle from the East. John
McCluskey is still visiting in Wiscon
sin and James will start for Juneau
some time in March.

A LITTLE STORY
ABOUT FISHERMEN
"Unpleasant circumstances," said
a water front lounger, "are liable to
arrive most any time." He was speak
ing of fisherfolk down on lower
Franklin street. "Of course the boys,"
lie continued, "don't want to be joshed
about it?so I'll not mention any
names. About three weeks ago two
of them started from Hoonah over
to Glacier Bay after ice. It was very
dark and just as they were getting
close in, their gas boat hit a hidden
rock. When she struck she turned
over and filled. The boys had to
swim over to the mainland. For two
days they were maroned on the bleak
coast but finally flagged a passing
fishboat and were taken off. Their
boat wasn't injured any, and .luckily,
no heavy seas disturbed it while rest
ing on the rock. With the assistance
of those who came to their relief, the J
boat was righted, and they went back
to Hoonah with the load of ice that,
they had started after." J
The fisherman sailing out of Alas
ka waters will go through any num
ber of such circumstances and not
complain, calling it all a part of the
day's work. Hardships of this nature
while unpleasant have terrors. What
really makes a fisherman feel like
taking to his bed with fright is to
be offered a check by an unknown
fish buyer. It is reported that a cer
tain man recently arrived in Juneau
and made a great splurge along the
waterfront. The fishermen were not
to be the victims of the disastrous
culling system adopted by the Seat
tle dealers. Buying fish on the Ju
neau dock became a pleasant pas
time?but some of the checks came
back.
Now the fishermen are clamoring
for a culling system?a system that
will cull out the bad checks before
they are exchanged for good fish.
THE ANGORA CLUB.
The Angora Club is reported to be
a recently organized local society for
the promotion of sports and good
fellowship, with E. Mercier for pres
ident and A. Beans as secretary.
