The Ketchikan Mining Journal says
the State of California did not tie up at
the Ketchikan wharf on her last trip

sent a boat ashore with mail and pas
sengers. She had a child on board
sick with what was thought to be scar
let fever, but what the physicians here
believed, from what they could learn,
was merely the skin disease the erudite
medicos up North thought was small
i pox. The captain, however, as in duty
bound, was taking every precaution to
protect the other passengers and the
public against any possible contagion.
The subject for the next Sunday ev
ening's sermon at the Swedish Luther
