Sparks from

DOUGLAS, Jan. 20.?At Tread well,
on Wednesday evening, Jan. 22, there
will be a big smoker. Thcro will bo
all kinds of boxing and wrestling, as
well as dancing, and a good time all
around is promised. Those who nover
attended one of these smokers should
do so, for they will get their money's
worth, so Chief Jack Wilson says.
The Jefferson arrived at Treadwell
at 9:30 this morning, with 160 tons of
freight, for that place.
Camp Douglas of the Arctic Broth
erhood, will have a rousing meeting
tomorrow night. There will be a num
ber of chechakos to hit the icy trail,
and besides a very interesting meet
ing is scheduled.
The Humboldt is due at Douglas on
Wednesday, Jan. 22, with a large
consignment of freight for local mer
chants.
Manager Kalish of the Humboldt
Steamship Company was on the isl
land yesterday shaking hands with his
many friends and patrons. Mr. Ka
lish says that the Humboldt is the
only boat on the water that stands
by Douglas.
Miss Olson, of Brooklyn, N. Y., ar
rived on the Jefferson this morning,
and was met by the man of her choice,
Henry Meyers, of Treadwell. Mr.
Meyers has been in the employ of
the Treadwell Company for years, and
came to the conclusion that he would
always stay there; so he decided to
marry and sent for his sweetheart.
They will be married tonight, and ev
erybody on Douglas island wishes
them all the happiness and joys of
life.
Guy Terry arrived on the Jeffer
son from Port Townsend, Wash. He
will be employed in the Treadwell
butcher shop.
William Mitchell also came in on
the Jefferson after a month's visit
with his people in Tacoma,
Mrs. L. D. Mulligan was a return
ing passenger on the Jefferson this
morning, from a visit in the States.
Mrs. Keilwaser, wife of the Doug
las baker, arrived on the Jefferson,
from Seattle, where she has been vis
iting friends and relatives.
A heavy snow fall again visited the
island last night.
There promises to be a large crowd
from Juneau at the smoker to be given
at Treadwell Wednesday evening.
The show at the Orpheum last night
I was up to its usual standard of ex
' cellence, and there was a large at
i tendance.
The roller rink is attracting its
1 usual large crowds from the island
and Juneau.
A. P. Campbell is not connected
with The Alaska Daily Empire in any
way. The island representative of
the paper is L. D. Mulligan and any
favors shown him will be fully appre
ciated by The Empire.
Luther Chambers, the popular Doug
, las butcher, will leave on the Marl
; posa on a business trip to the States.
? Mr. Johnson will take Mr. Chambers'
place in the shop during the latter's
[ absence.
This is the first trip the Jefferson
has made this winter, and she was
heartily welcomed. She made the
? trip in four days.
! Dr. Mathes will leave on the Geor
' gia for Tenakee on a professional visit.

A GREAT SUCCESS
Manager Summers, of the dry goods
department of Chas. Goldstein's de
partment store, reports that the re
cent Clearance Sale of that depart
ment of the big establishment, was
very successful. As a matter of fact
the business done . all through the
house for the past two months shows
a wonderful increase.
NOW A CITIZEN.
John Nestor Sarvela, a native of
Finland, Russia, was today admitted
to citizenship by Judge Overfield. His
witnesses are Henry Olson and Peter
Carlson.
BREAKING RECORDS
ON BIG TUNNEL
Paddy O'Neal, who is driving the
big Sheep creek tunnel for the Alas
ka-Gastineau Mining Company seems
to understand his business. Despite
the bad weather conditions, which he
has to contend with he is moving
along at record-breaking speed.
The great tunnel has been driven
more than one hundred feet in the
past five days which is better than
twenty feet each day, breaking all
records for this sort of work. O'Neal
has his crews and machines working
like chronometers and there is no reas
on why this speed cannot be contin
ued if the power holds out, which it
Will undoubtedly.
Heavy snow fall causes consider
ably annoyance with the outside
tracks but they will be kept clear so
that the waste can be dumped.
General Manager B. L. Thane is
very much pleased over the general
progress that has been made with
the company's development work and
is especially pleased with the record
breaking work of Mr. O'Neil.
The Sheep creek tunnel when com
pleted will be ten thousand feet long
and serve as the main artery carrying
ores from the mines to the reduc
tion plant on the waterfront.
"GOAT" TO GIVE WAY
AS ISLAND NAME
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.?The
United States Geographical Board,
which made the official name of Yer
ba Buena Island "Goat Island," is will
ing to have Yerba Buena Island the
correct designation, provided the peo
ple of San Francisco by common usage
adopt the Spanish term.
This is a virtual victory in the fight
to preserve the euphonious and his
toric title waged several months ago
by the Sons and Daughters of the
Golden West and other organizations
and individuals. As soon as the news
of the original decision labelling the
island "Goat" reached San Francisco
many telegrams of protest were re
ceived here.
The government board suggested
that the army and navy, In petitions
to Congress for appropriations, use
the name of Yerba Buena and that
the local officials see that the proper
i titlo is "given to the island in all text
books, ordinances and new publica
tions.
TWO BOUND OVER.
Chris Chalmers and Geo. Bernlce
wore bound over by Commissioner
Winn to await action of the grand
jury for selling liquor to Indians and
latter for assault with a deadly wea
pon.

MOTHER CAMP WILL
NOT BE MOLLIFIED
Camp Skagway, No. 1, the mother!
camp of the Arctic Brotherhood, will
have none of the eleventh hour repent
ance of grand camp officials accord
ing to Senator-elect J. M. Tanner,
who is now in Juneau.
"There is only one thing that will
satisfy Camp Skagway," said Mr. Tan
ner, "and that is the creation of a
new grand camp entirely within the
jurisdiction of the order. The grand
camp violated the constitution at its
last session and by its own acts be
came an outlaw of the order and is
not entitled to any recognition at all.
Camp Skagway holds that there is
no longer a grand camp of the order j
and the camp will hold itself aloof
from any entangling outside influ
ences. When the convention is held
here in Juneau on March 14 there will
be regularly elected delegates from
every camp In the order and there is
every indication that a new grand
camp will be organized entirely with
in the jurisdiction of the order."
H. P. M. Birkinbine, of Haines, en
dorses practically everything put
forth by Mr. Tanner. Mr. Birkinbine
says that Camp Haines will stick by
tho plan to cut off entirely all outside
Influence and that the subordinate
camps are the real power of the or
der?no half way measures will do for
Haines; the outlaw organization will
have to go.
