SEWARD MAIL SI PPOSED
LOST WENT TO JAPAN.
l'here \N as No Robbery Only a Mis
take and All Valuables
Are Safe.
'Hie supposed robbery of registered ^
mail from Seward and other Alaska1
towns, was no robbery at all and the i
belief that a robbery had occurred
was due to the fact that the mail got
mixed up with the mail for Japan at
Seattle and was shipped across the
Pacific. This information wasj
brought to Seward today by Chief
Clerk A. Karnes of the Railway Mail
service. Several registered packages
sent b\ people from Seward were in
the missing mail and some were val-!
liable.
One of the packages was sent by
George Mirlach and contained five or
six hundred dollars worth. This mis
sing mail will be sent back from
Japan immediately. * ,
ANCHORAGE.—There are more
“special correspondents” in this
bloomin' town than people employed
in any other single vocation, if one
may judge by the newspapers, both in
Alaska and on the outside. One can
’ scarcely pick up a paper without see-'
ing Anchorage news from a “special
correspondent.” As a matter of fact,
the newspapers cull the subject mat
ter from the columns of the Pioneer
_
and credit it to their “special cor
respondent,” in Anchorage. rI he Ju
neau Empire and the Seward Gate
way are exceptions to this rule and
always give due credit to the Pioneer
for articles taken from it. This con
sideration is appreciated.—Cook In

And they should lift that bowl—
We’ll show them we're good losers,
If they get us in a hole.
And if they wish to fill the cup,

For we'll fill the cup and drink their
