COMMITTEE BUSY
The Fourth of July Commit
tee has been busy this week
preparing a list of very novel
ntheletic features for the com
ing celebration. A large entry
list is expected for the moun
tain Climbing contest. The
men will start early the morn
ing of the Fourth, climb to the
top oft he mountain by any trail
and return about the time the
rest of the program is being
carried off. The spectators of
the contests will thus see the
finish of this event. There has
been considerable discussion
over what is the record time
and this is hoped to settle it.
Added to the regular Strong
Man contest will be the Bar
Chinning event. Following
these there are many other
events to show strength, speed
and skill. The obstacle race
will be as laughable as the one
as last year. For the benefit
of the “fans” there will be
a ball throwing contest for
distance. The committee is
trying to make this years pro
gram as broad as possible so
as to give every one a chance
for the liberal prizes|

tickets which might be used
on the various lines of steam

that end in view they have
drawn up a petition to H. F.
Alexander, president of the
Pacific-Alaska Navigation Co.
asking him to use his influ
ence toward securing the de
sired ends. They point out
that these tickets would have ’
a tendency to increase traffic
by making travel more con
(venient. The petition is be
ing generally signed by the
commercial men and will be
forwarded to Mr. Alexander.

FROM MONDAYS DAILY
The Ketchikan Baseball
Team met its old rival, the
Metlakahtla team yesterday
afternoon when the local team
was victorious by a tune of 6
to 7. The opening inning was
played under favorable weather
conditions but toward the end
a strong and cold wind was
blowing across the diamond
thereby making it rather un
pleasant for the spectators as
well as the players. In the
first inning Metlakahtla started
the game by having Lewis
walk to first but was subse
quently caught napping on
first. Fawsett went out on a
foul tip while Don Atchinson
made a two base hit, putting
the sphere well into left field,
and then Eddie Bush let one
drive to center only to be pick
ed right out of the air, thereby
retiring the side. Kubley
started things off for Ketchi
kan by making first base on
four balls and then stole sec
ond. Reyes hit a good one
right over second thus advanc
ing Kubley to third, with Reyes
on first. Walter Janggen who
was next failed to locate the
ball in its travel over the home
plate. Then came Payne, who
hit a lively one, bringing Kub
ley and Reyes safely over the
home plate. O. Connor went
out an a pop up fly to center.
With an eye of an eagle Payne
watched for an opportunity to
steal home and was successful
for he made good by a hard
run. Erickson connected up
for a hit to right field only to
fall into a waiting mit. In the
beginning of the second inning
Jais reached first, Evans fan
ned, Walton Xvalked, Simpson
made a timely hit, and at this
point the local team fluked,
players lost control of the ball
in the infield trying to make a
double play and as the result
two men reached home and
were followed by Simpson
who was brought in by Lewis
when he landed a safe one in
left field. Fawsett went out
on a caught ball. Lewis made
third in record time but was a
little too late in his arrival. At
this stage of the game the
score was an even break of 3
to 3. In the third inning the
locals made one run while in
the fifth the natives made two.
In the seventh inning Metla
kahtla made one run to their
opponet’s three. This gave
Ketchikan the lead of one run
which they held until the end.
Every member of the respective
teams had an opportunity to
display his playing ability and
this they used to advantage. A
great deal of interest was man
ifested by .the spectators, and
especially was this noticeable
in the grandstand where laud
ation as well as roasts poured
forth.

NEW WAY TO
HATCS SALMON EQQS
According to advices receiv
ed from Victoria, B. C. im
portant experiments have been
made by John P. Babcock, fish
eries expert for British Collum
bia, in connection with the
hatchery operations. Last aut
umn at Seton Lake, instead of
placing all the Sockeye eggs
in trays, as has been the l^sual
custom, Mr. Babcock adopted a
scheme more in keeping with
the natural methods followed
by the parent fish. The eggs,
after having been innoculated
with the melt, were buried
under from five to seven inch
es of gravel and sand. Over
200,000 ova were thus treated
in tanks especially made for the
purpose and as the result 188,
000 lively and healthy fry have
been taken out with the pos
sibility of a few more to fol
low.—Pacific Fisherman.
