THE STROLLER
(By E. J. White)
Those who coniine their read
ing to the Bible and the Strol
ler’s Column may not be as’ well
posted on the Mexican situation
September Morns and the lat
est in split gowns as those w'Jio
peruse the metropolitan dailies,
lint they have the assurance that
what they do read is flavored
witli truth, tinged with equity
and associated with that which
tends to I lie moral uplift. To
be candid, the Stroller flatters
himself that he and the Bible
are the two greatest agencies
of the present generation in the
work of leading undone and
sodden humanity from the blind
sloughs of ignorance and des
pair.
The foregoing has absolutely
nothing lo do with what fol
lows.
Readers of the Stroller’s pro
ductions will remember that he
offered a year’s subscription
free of charge lo any and all
families in Whitehorse in
which a boy was born between
July 1. 1U12, and Julyl, 1913.
This offer was made with a
view of organizing a home
grown baseball team which will
be able to successfully compete
with the teams of neighboring
towns on • fete days and thus
bring glory and /renown to
Whitehorse. During the per
iod mentioned, five players, a
pitcher, three basemen and a
shortstop, were signed up on
I he-Stroller's team. He is still
in need of a catcher and three
fielders and as encouragement
toward filling these vacancies,
he has decided lo offer to stand
as godfather for alt boys born
in Whitehorse between now and
the first of next June and for
ail born between the occasion
of our next celebration of the
King’s birthday, June 3 and Hie j
Fourth of July, lie will donate
the following accompanying list
of first aid lo kids:
One nursing bottle (provided
tlie parent stem is not used.)
Six nursing nipples.
Two rubber rings (these are
for the front teeth. His eye
Leeth will cut later.)
One tin whistle.
One spank-protector pad (this
for humanity’s sake.)
Wilh baseball teams picked
up from our floating population
the Stroller dispairs of ever
winning a certain cup which
went to the surf-washed Skag
way nine six ur seven years ago
iud which, though paid for will'.
Whitehorse money, lias been
there ever since, rusting and cor
:■< Mug in the salt-laden ozone
which that town is justly
‘milled. Willi his limuc
wu team at the bat the Strol
r I p“s to bring that cup back
„ome. Then, and net untii then
can i n lift up his melodiom
voice in that glad refrain, “the
year of jubilee lias come.”

MINER DIES FROM
EXPOSURE AND ALCOHOL
William Burns, a miner form
erly in the employ of the Alas
ka Gastineau Mining company,
died in St. Ann’s hospital this
morning from exposure and al
coholism, the former resulting
from the latter, lie was found
in an irfl eon cions state at an
early hour this morinng in his
cabin on the beach just south
of the Alaska Juneau millsite.
Death ensued within an hour
after enteringthe hospital, and
lie never regained conscious
ness. He had been in the cabin
two days cold and wet and with
out food, but was not discover
ed until this morning, although
he was heard moaning the day
before. Deceased was 43 years
of age and a native of New York
Stale. He had no friends or
relatives in this country. Be
fore coming to Juneau lie work

kon and lived at Skagway. lie

THE BROAD VIEW
Xo doubt the girls deserve the
eights for which they clamor,
days and nights, and men should
patient he and fair; I love (he
women passing well, hut when
they raise their “rebel yet” I’m
glad my granny isn’t there. The
women ought to have a hand in
governing this happy land—they
have that right, and more to
spare; this cheerfully I grant
each'maid—hut when I see a
stiff parade, I’m glad Aunt j
Agnes isn’t there. The dames !
who help to hear Ihe yoke should j
have Ihe right to chew and
smoke and play cheap polities
and swear; hut when the wives
neglect their homes, and-chase
around with batty domes, I’m
glad my grandniece isn’t there.
I’d like lo "ec the woman gain
all blessings that they would ob
tain, and all imagined laurels
wear;but when I think of poli
ties, with all its cheap and sor
did tricks, I’m glad my sister
isn’t [here. Let other’s sisters,
aunts and wives, go forth and
sacrifice their lives, and reso
lute and paw Ihe air; Iheir
sacred cause is all O. K., but I
am thankful every day that
Cousin Susan isn’t there.—
