DENNY DIES IN SEATTLE SEATTLE. June 26.?John B. Den ny. the well-known Juneau attorney, died here today following an operation for stomach trouble from which he had been a sufTerer for years. The news of Mr. Denny's death caused a distiuct shock to his many frit ads in Juneau. Mrs. Denny left immediately for Seattle on the Hum boldt. D. Thomas Denny, a brother, came up from Sheep creek as soon as notified and will take the tlrst boat South. Besides his wife, and daugh ter now attending school in the Kast, Mr. Denny is survived by two brothers and two sisters, all of whom except the brother now in Juneau are at pres ent in the State of Washington. John B. Denny was the eldest son of D. T. Denny, one of the original pi-1 oneer settlers of Seattle. He was fif ty years of age and a native son of | Seattle. He was educated in the Uni-; verslty of Washington and upon grad-; nation entered the practice of law in ] that city. He organized the movement for the consolidation of the street rail- ' ways of that city but was unfortu-' natel.v caught in the panic of 1893 and the entire property of his father's fam ily including his own was swept away in the disaster. In 1896 he came to Juneau to re trieve his fortunes and has been en gaged here ever since in the practice of law, the publishing of newspapers and in mining development. He had large mining interests in the Sheep creek basin and developments are now pending on some of it. Thero is also some very important litigation pending for which he was one of the attorneys at interest. \j V ?I 1111111111 i 111IIII11111 I t :: League Base Ball J i i i i i i i i i i i 1 I i i i l i l M ! i i NORTHWESTERN LEAGUE.

Tay lor, publisher of the Seattle Post-ln telligencer, and Mrs. Evelyn Carnick, of New York, were married yesterday. o?O?0 TOURISTS DON'T LIKE TREATMENT OF FLAG American tourists on the Humboldt are much incensed at what they term a lack of proper patriotic spirit on the part of someone in Alaska because of a humiliation that they experienced at the summit of White Pass the oth er day when they and some British excursionists from the Princess So phia met there at the same time. They say that when the party reached the summit there was a big and bright Canadian flag flying from the top of a freshly oiled staff, while the Ameri cans were humiliated by the fact that a delapitated and soiled specimen of Old dory was lying at the foot of the staff, from which hung a rotted hal yard that parted when the tourists tried to hoist the flag with it. The Ca nadians chaffed the Americans about the lack of patriotism on the American side of the line in the Northland until some of them thought there was some thing in the contention. Mrs. L. W, Stetson, of Seattle, one of those making the round trip pass age, is highly indignant on account of the situation, but, being herself a native girl of the Pacific Coast, she is sure that it is a case of "what is ev erybody's business is nobody's" rath er than any lack of patriotism on the part of the broad-minded Western peo ple that inhabit Alaska. She says, however, that the patriotic people of Alaska should hasten to restore the American flag at the boundary line to it's proper place of dignity. o?o?o PHELAN'S ANNOUNCEMENT IS NOT SURPRISE SAN FRANCISCO, June 26?The an nouncement that former Mayor James D.
