KINDNESS OF LITTLE DOUG
LAS LADIES APPRECIATED
?
DOUGLAS. March 13.?During the
Valentine season. Misses Elizabeth
and Mamie Kiusl made a number of
valentines and sent them to be distrib
uted among the old pioneers in the
home at Sitka, expressing kind wishes
Cor the old gentlemen now living there.
iV few days ago the girld received au
icknowtedgemeut of their kind act,
though a letter signed by Representa
tive Shoup. who said, among other
things:
"If you could have seen how pleased
these old gentlemen were when they
found that two young Alaska ladies
had selected them as their Valentines,
1 am sure you would have felt more
than repaid. Do you know that many
of these men have had daughters of!
their own, and lost them? Knowing
that, it is easy to realize how tender
ly the Pioneers feel toward those who
extend to them such courtesies as
you have."
BOY SCOUT MOVEMENT
STARTED IN DOUGLAS
DOUGLAS. March 13.?Prof. R. R.
Bell has organized a boy scout move
ment on the Island and from the talk

the Juniors, but if the Seniors wish

true help-mate Is pictured. The
success and happiness of one

excellent program.

DOUGLAS NEWS NOTES
* +
DOUGLAS. March 13?In the Em
pire appears the announcement of a
dance to be given at the pavilion on

be one of the best in the district and
there is ample space for a large at
tendance. !t Is expected that a most
enjoyable time will be had.
Report comes today that Mrs. Neu
man. who was operated upon yester
day. Is recovering nicely, having rest
ed well during the night.
Next Tuesday evening the admirers I
of St. Patrick will hold their big dance 4

improvement over the ether eight, at

mittees to make is so. n
The choir of the Congregational

Treadwell Notes. t
TREADWELL, March 13.?The Elks ?
bowling team, consisting of Bennett, y
Thielcke, Metzner, Snow and Terry ?
came back last evening from a victor- y
loux trip to Juneau where they sue- ^
ceeded in defeating the Elks bowl- y
ing team of that city.
At the firemen's meeting tonight, it 5
is presumed that some discussion will ^
be had relative to baseball, as that \
subject is exciting the interest of a ?
large number of men. The usual mov- *
ing picture show will be had and a ?
large attendance Is promised. *
The first of the wrestling lessons ?
started last night under the direction 'm
of Prof. McDonald. Swimming fol- ?
lowed the wrestling lessons. '
L. K. Kennedy, manager of the Ju- ?
alln mining properties, is in the city 1
on business.
The high tide yesterday washed the I
underpinnings from the company's ?
launch Mabel. Today several of the
row boats are filled with water from .
the breakers. With a twelve-foot tide
the wind blowing and a date of Fri
day. the thirteenth, it is not unreas
onable to suppose that something will
happen disastrous to the shipping
along the Island coast.
A few cases of sea, or rather chan- >
nel sickness developed among the pas- *J
scngers of the Lone Fisherman, as J
she is making her runs between the 1
ports today. Waves are running high J
but the Ferry is staunch and the cap- 1
tain competent, so let 'er blow, ye ho, J
lads, ho. 1
