Lirfe TOO STRENUOUS
IN THE SPIRIT CITY
VALDEZ PROSPECTOR: — Sam
Knudson, the most popular man on
the Pacific Coast, is back. Life in
the Spirit City, with its bustle and diu
was too strenuous after li) years
amidst the quiet solitudes of the
Northland, and played such havor
with his nervous system, that he could
not stand the strain, so when his Se
attle friends were not looking he
packed htfr grip, stole away to the
Admiral Watson, where he remained
in hiding until the steamer was well
out in the bay.
Sam’s reception was such as would
make any man proud, but his depart
ure was quiet in the extreme. Sam
looked after that part of it.
Possibly the genial wharfinger at
the Valdez Dock might have manag
ed to stay in the city a few days long
er, but one of his enterprising
“friends” inserted the following no
tice in a Seattle paper:
WANTED:—Lady for housekeeper
large hotel in Valdez, Alaska. In
quire Sam Knudsen, Supt. Valdez
Dock Company; Room 519 Hotel
Seattle.
When Sam came down to breakfast
next morning there were long women,
short women, fat women, Slim wom
en, squatty women, tubby women,
bloneds, near blondes, and pel oxide
blondes; brunettes, flappers, chickens
and squabs; in a line extending from
the hotel desk down the street to the
totem pole.
Sam glanced at the smiling line of
anxious applicants and rang the jing
ler for full speed ahead. That is why
he left Seattle amt why he returned
to Valdez before our love for his
memory cooled.
No more Seattle for Sam. Nine
teen more years may wax and wane
but Sam will be here.
He has had enough.
Too many zealous friends can make
life more miserable for a man who

A. It. A F FA IK FINE
_
The vaudeville entertainment and |
dance given by the Arctic Brotherhood
on Saturday evening were both very
successful. A larger number proonbly
i never attended any affair in Seward.
The vocal and instrumental items
were mostly good. Indeed, one tould
only praise and if one could not
praise silence would be golden. How
ever, the dancing was an unusual sort
J of thing for Alaska. Miss Hallett is
| wonderful and the four young ladies
are worthy pupils. As their names
were not mentioned on the program it
must be said that they were the
Misses Romig ami Misses Carlson.
