Capture Live Deer
Soon after leaving Ketchikan, the
passengers on the steamer Corwin saw
a deer swimming across the Sound to
Granville island, says the Nome Nug
get. At fit>t a plan was formulated to
shoot it, but wiser counsel prevailed,
and the ship was stopped while Louis
Lane and two or three of the crew
dropped a boat, and went after.it. Laue
mauaged to get a lasso fast aiound the
animal just as it was making a landing,
it was found to be a beautiful fawn, a
year olc3.
The deer was taken aboard the ship
and presented to Captain West as a
mascot, with all due ceremony, two
days afterwards. Thomas Ross and
Richard Healey were appointed mar
shals of the day, aud W. S. West was
elected master of ceremonies. Miss
Ellen Carey, a guest of Captain aud
Mrs. West, had I he honor of breaking a
bottle of wine over the fawn'? horns,
aud it was duly christened Granville.
The deer was then presented to Cap
tain West as a mascot for the good
ship Corwiu by Louis Laue, and the
captain suitably replied. Tom Gaylord
theu read a poem about the trip, and
the exercises were brought to a close
by a number of songs aud recitations
by the passengers.
The following is a copy of the poem:
When we sailed from old Seattle
Out across the ocean's foam,
Yanked the mud-hook from the bottom,
Started on the trip to Nome.
When we turned the keel to starboard,
Started on this lengthy hike,
When we sheeted home the taffrail,
Also furled the marliu spike.
We had not the slightest notion
What the future had iu store;
Some were certain they'd be seasick,
Sure of this aud nothing more.
Some, hoped tor whales aud blacktish
Out upon the briny deep;
Others longed for seal aud walrus
Where the Arctic waters sweep.
Some thought only of the scenery,
Some of Scotch and some of beer,
But the wildest flight of fancy
No one hoped to catch a deer.
But we got one iu a channel,
Down along some Euglish isle,
Aud the way that deer has acted
Would make a wooden ludian smile.
One short day sufficed to chauge him
From a creature of the wild
To a pampered, hand fed darling,
To a good ship's petted child.
And we hope that as he travels
O'er the Northern waters blue
That he proves a lucky mascot ?
Granville L. Corwin, here's to you!
Sylve.?ter MauMahon, who first came
to Southeastern Alaska over thirty
year& ago, will go to Bluff tomorrow on
the Seddou to resume his position with
theTopkok Ditch company, says the
Nome Nugget.

Van Gleave at Skagway
James W. Van Gleave, who untifra
fow weeks ago was president of tbe
National Manufacturers' association,
and who for three years as leader (>'? .
that organization waged bitter war
against union labor, was a visitor in
Skagway Wednesday, arriving and
leaving on the City of Seattle, says the
Daily Alaskan.
The following are Mr. Van Cleave's
views on the subject of union labor:
UJ believe it is proper that workmen
of all crafts should organize, but J have
ever held that it is not right that they
should take it upon themselves the di
rection of the business of the employe *
and seek to relegate to their own organ
ization the right to control, and resort
to violence and crime to enforce thoir
->elf at twined i hts.
'?There are so many things that the
\ proper sort of oiganization cau secure
for itself, but the present method is
; criminal and militant, as was the case
in th^ boycott declared on the Buck
Stove and Range company, of which I
am president. The boycott was de- ?
clared because i was at that time the
president of the Manufacturers' ass??V.
elation and not because the boycott
! was necessary.
"Men left my employ with tears
streaming down their faces. They had
I been with me for years. It was through
no fault of theirs that they never re
turned to my employ, and through no
fault of mine.
"I cousider that 95 per cent of the
members of labor uuions are good
Americau citizens, believing in thG
principles dear to every true American.
This 95 per cent, however, has not the
control of the unions. It is the other
5 percent, the crimiual leaders and
walking delegate class, who now have
control of those orgonizations.
"There can be ouly one outcome of
the so-called 'controversy' which is now
in progress between the employing
! classes and the labor liuious and that
is decent aud law-abiding uniouism,"
said Mr. Vau Cleave. "It cauuot be ^
I properly termed a controversy, but a
demand for Americauism aud personal
liberty."
From present plans, the Copper
River & Northwest railway will inaug
urate a passenger service .Juiy 1st, says
the Cordova North Star. This means
that regular trains will be run every
j day. Two passenger coaches are now
in the yards and more are on the way.
A number of local people are desirous
of visitiug the glaciers, and the service
will also give visitors a chance to
take a trip over the road. Miles aud
Childs glaciers are at their beat in July
and August, as they theu shed the
most ice. Judging from plans being
discussed thern will be a heavy excur
sion business every Suuday, after the
road is opened to passenger traffic.
