LEAVE IT TO DALE.
In a boat race, if you can't slide
by your opponent on account of lack
of power, you just tie tin cans on
the bottom of vour opponent's boat;
that'll fix him.
There has been great rivalry of late
between D. W. Hunt and Ed. Parker
in regard to the swiftness of their
respective pleasure boats. A day or
two ago, it was arranged to pull off a
race yesterday. Accordingly every
thing was put in readiness. It appears
that Mr. Hunt was little leary and to
make sure, in Mr. Parker's absence,
he proceeded to at least diminish the
possible distance that might result,
and the wav he went at it was simple
too. He merely tied two large tin
cans under his opponent’s boat. On
the race, it is said that Parker's boat
made the water fly but could not ma'ke
speed, allowing Dale to just slide off
and away from him. Gee, but he was
mad! He finally made port again and
taking an oar he proceeded to investi
gate when he struck a can, and then
a second one. By that time Dale was
nowhere to be found. In a boat-race,
it is said to leave it to Dale, whatever
that means.
HERE’S AN OPPORTUNITY
FOR LONELY BACHELORS
(Iditarod Pioneer.)
Postmaster William Ansley has re
ceived a letter giving names and ad
dresses of two young ladies in Read
ing, Pa., who are well recommended ;
by an acquaintance of his, who de- !
sire to correspond with two young
gentlemen in Alaska with a view to ;
making their future home "in this our
beautiful niggerhead empire," as Bill ;
puts it, "if, after getting acquainted,
satisfactory arrangements can be j
made.”
“Uncle Billy” adds the admonition: I
"Get busy, boys. This may be a !
golden opportunity to get a better half,
to cheer your drooping spirits, im
prove your appetites and make life
worth living, as a man who is past 30
and is without a home doesn’t amount
to much. For further information call
on or address the postmaster, Iditarod,
Alaska.”
Bill was asked why he himself did
not become a candidate for the matri
monial prize, and replied that he ‘'al
ready had one on the string."

PHIL M'GUIRE’S BOAT FOUND.
(Fairbanks News-Miner.)
About a year ago Phil McGuire
started from Delta tor McCary in a
small boat. He disappeared and noth
ing was ever heard of him. During
the last few days, while coming down
the Tanana river, between Richardson
and Delta, William Eisinminger found
his boat in a battered condition. There
was enough left, however, to make
the boat recognizable.
When he left in his poling boat last
summer McGuire sent some grub with
an outfit ahead to McCarty with a
freighter. His property has remain
ed there ever since, his friends hop
ing that he would turn up for it some
time. Now. however, with the finding
of the boat all hope is gone.

ATTORNEY WARDER RETURNS.
Attorney J. F. Warder has returned
from his trip to Prince Rupert hale
and hearty. When seen at his desk
this morning, the first question he
put to the reporter was, “What is that
1 hear,' you claim that 1 was convert
ed to republicanism? Vou can say for
me that I emphatically deny the as
certion, I am stiTl a democrat. My
trip to Prince Rupert was made for
the purpose of looking up another
honest democrat who I had heard had
gone there."
Tut. tut, Mr. Warder, that is impos
sible. That is what Attorney Inger
soll says anyhow.

DRESSMAKING UP IN
ALASKA WORRIES HIM
(Seattle Times.)
For the last few days Robert C.
Hill, manager of the Merchants’ Ex
change of Seattle, has appeared dis
trait, meaning lost in perplexity
and anxiety. Hill has been a i
haunted man. Specters followed |
him. The specters took the form i
of questions propounded by a Cali-!
fornia girl who wants to go to
Alaska. The fair Californian backed
him off the map, as it were. This
morning, however, Hill had a dia
bolical inspiration. He passed the
interrogative ghosts along.
The fair Californian, who speaks
English, German, French and Dan
ish, propounded these questions in
a letter:
What are dressmaking conditions
in Alaska?
How much does living cost in
j Juneau or Valdez, including rents?
How much can a good dressmaker
earn in Alaska?
Should a dressmaker stay in one
city or travel from one to another?
Should I take my sewing machine
along?
After trying in vain to get some
information on the questions asked,
Hill, who is an expert in shipping,
but a rank amateur in dressmaking
problems, burst into a relieved
laugh.
"Shucks,” he said, “I’m crazy in
the head to worry over this letter.
I’ll pass it along to the industrial
bureau of the Chamber of Com
merce. That’s what the bureau is
for.”
