CITIZENS CAN SERVE
A COUBT SUMMONS
Judge Charles E. Bunnell of Fair
banks, has rendered a decision that
upholds the act of the territorial leg
islature providing that any citizen
may serve a summons in a civil case.
Heretofore, under the Federal law, a
summons could not be served by any
bv _v except a duly qualified officer.
The decision of Judge Bunnell is note
w. . th. also, inasmuch as it reverses
a decision made by Judge F. E. Ful
ler more than a year ago, and one by
Judge Randolf Tucker, jr., of Nome,
rendered more recently.

SITKA PRIEST IS DEAD
iiev. Sergius J. Kostrometinoff,
rector of St. Michael's cathedral at
Sitxa and dean of the Greek Church
f Alaska, died Saturday in Seattle
from cancer of the neck while enroute
to Victoria to seek medical aid from
Dr. Simpson, the sp-eeialist at that
place, and his body is now on board
the Jefferson enroute to Sitka.
Father Sergius (he was christened
George but given the name of Sergius
when ordained as priest) was born at
Ko-iiak 62 years ago. his father be
ing director of the Russian-American
lee Co., a coneern which was engag
ed in shipping iee from Wood Island

and here, at H years of age, young
Kestr metinoff witnessed the offi
ial transfer of Alaska from Russia
to the United States, by the lower
ing of the Russian colors and the

When civil government was given

thedral at Sitka, and served in this
capacity for 26 years without com
pensation, and brought the Sitka

! lit ion to one of prosperity. For
hose faithful services he received a
oving cup of silver from the Czar

hedral with a salary for his old age.
