BASKET BALL BOOST
Yes. patient reader, we will beat
you to it and admit that Ketchikan
never did shine in Basket Ball; how
ever that is no sign that we never"
will. Just to show you that our
heart is in the right place, we have
arranged a game with the Sitka
team who are attending the conven
tion at Metlakahtla, where they will
play a game. They will stop off on
their way home and play us.
Our boys had their first practice
last night and some new blood show
ed up that looked good. The boys
will be able to get in a week of
good hard practice before the game,
and you may be assured that if they
get beat it won’t be because they
did not try.
Watch the paper for the date of
game, then come out and boost. We
must have your support.
Everybody interested in Basket
Ball turn out tonight for practice at
the Rink, 7 p.m. sharp.

FATHER GIVES DETAILS OF
MURDER OF SON
Forced to March Naked and Afoot
Miles Across Desert
How J. W. Tays came to his death
at the hands of Villa’s murderous
Indians, was told in a letter receiv
ed by his uncle, brother of the father
of the murdered man.
According to the letter, Tays set
out for Los Mochis, 25 miles away,
on Sept. 5 in company wtih four
companions and three Indian team
sters. They were met by 500 Indians of
the Villa faction and made prisoners.
Despite his protest of American
citizenship they were forced to
march naked and afoot, five miles
across the desert for the camp of
Bachomo, Indian bandit and chief.
Tays and his companions begged
f°C water and their entreaties only
brought forth thrusts of cocked re
volvers in their sides. All the while
the Indians dangled full canteens
before their famished captives.
On arriving at the camp of the
Indian leader, the American and his
companions were robbed of $900.
Then they were lined up and shot.
The Indian teamsters fled, but one
was killed in trying to make his
escape.
The father, accompanied by seven
armed Americans, visited the scene
of the tragedy next day, but was un
able to recover the body of his son.
Two days iater Bachomo sent word
to Mr. Tays that he would kill him,
too, if he persisted in searching for
his son’s body.
Mr. Tays wrote his brother that
he had notified Carranza authoities,
through the • American counsul at
Mazatlan, but so far the bandits
had escaped punishment, he said.

HUNTING SEALS WITH
AEROPLANES
The last sealing season in the
Gulf of St. Lawrence, which closed
May 1, was a failure owing to the
difficulty of finding and reaching
the herds* in the unusually heavy
ice, and entailed a loss of about
$250,000 upon the owners of vessels.
Next year it is proposed to en
gage two aviators to visit the east
coast and the gulf of St. Lawrence,
respectively, just before the open
ing of the season and locate the
herds.
If successful, this plan will save
the large amount of time now lost
by sealers in searching for their
prey, and should add corresponding
ly to the profits.
MAXIM’S MAXIM OF HEALTH
Hudson Maxim’s remarkably ener
getic and productive life is due very
largely to his health, in the opinion
of Eugene Christian. Mr. Chrdist
mn describes Maxim as never having
been sick but once in his life, and
oating. The inventor’s health is
this was due to an indiscretion in
said to be due first to prenatal con
ditions. His father,. Isaac Maxim,
was a big,robust hardy Huguenot.
His mother used common sense in
stead of drugs for all family ills,
and he was early trained to never
fouch toba'-'-o and liquor.
During his raising the family table
was supplied with substantial purr
food prepared in an appetizing but
homely manner. The table was di
vested and condiments, fancy dessert
sweets and confections, which are
the things that have contributed tre
mendously to the anemic condition
of the pampered child.
Endowed by nature with a won
derful body and a big brain. Hudson
Maxim has supplemented these na
tural forces “by keeping his brain
and body clean.” Complimented upon
these sensible habits he quietly said,
“I know something about chemistry
and why should I take into my body
poisons that can do no possible good,
but which are sure to reduce the
building power of the blood and des
troy cell metabolism. Why should T
poison the blood that streams thru
my veins any more than I would
poison the pure water with which
my food is cooked, and which goes
upon my table?”

“HUMANIZED” COW’S MltK
FOR INFANTS
An article recently published in
the British Medical Journal points
out that “humanized” milk, or cow’s
milk with a percentage composition
,of human milk, is a good .food for
healthy infants deprived of breast
feeding. An examination shows
that the upper 15 ounces of a quart
bottle of milk which has been stand
ing for six hours at a temperature
of 40 or 50 degrees F. has the fol
lowing percentage composition.
Protein, 3.40; sugar, 4.50; fat,
8.00; salts, 0.70; water, 83.40.
By diluting with an equal volume
of water and adding sugar contents
to the desired degree a substance
very similar to human milk may be
obtained. This composition is as
follows; Protein, 1.70; sugar, 7.00;
fat, 4.00; salts, 0.37; or 0.35; water,
86.95.

REFLECTIONS OF A
BACHELOR GIRL
(By Hein Rowland in P.-I.)
Sometimes the reason a girl gives
her life and heart into the keeping
of one particular man out of the
whole wide world i? because he ask
ed her.
Most women go to the theater to
see what the actress are wearing—
most men, to see what they am’t
wearing.
You may believe a girl who says
that she never has been kissed, but
don’t believe her if she pretends to
he enthusiastically happy over it.
A man who can’t be held by the
heart-strings or the bonds of con
science will soon turn the marriage
tie from a Gordian knot into a slip
knot.
“To economize” may be an active
or a passive vero, according to
whether it refers to the wife’s activ
ity in making over her old clothes
or the husband’s passivity in permit
ting her to deprive him of his favor
ite cigars, and relegate him to a
pipe.
In these days, 'when the solid
attractions count, the difference be
tween “a hopeless old maid” and
“an interesting bachelor girl” is
just about fifty thousand dollars.
Most men cheerfully run up S
charge account with Fate, and then
are as astonished and indignant
when the bills come in as a fem
inine bargain fiend.
Funny how a man’s face dark
er • with suspicion when you call
him a “perfect angel” and lights
up with a glow of pride when you
call him a “perfect devil.”
There isv only one vital excuse
■for a man wearing a beard in these
days, and that’s because he hates
to be kissed.
