SEEPOVIA TRAPPER
AiurncEn INSANE
Oscar Carlson, who was brought
from Seldovia yesterday by Deputy |
Marshal Cameron, was adjudged in-.
sane by a jury in the commissioner’s
court this morning. Carlson has been
trapping in the vicinity of Cook inlet
for the past two years, generally alone j
and gives evidences of being mildly j
unbalanced. He imagines that there j
are efforts being made, without ap-1
parent reason, to kill him and will not
go trapping again through fear that
it will be done. Carlson will be taken
on an early boat to the institution
where Alaskan patients suffering with ;
his ailment are treated. It is believed
that he will recover completely in a|
short time.

M. Birmingham, former of the A.
E. C. force at Kern creek, mentioned
Saturday as having tried for service
in the Canadian army, and been re

he has been in Alaska since 1912 and

time. He says he is 40 years of age

The dance and entertainment given
Saturday evening under the auspices
of the local Red Cross unit was thor
oughly enjoyed by a large crowd of
loyal Sewardites. A program, includ
ing some of the best of our local tal
ent preceded the dance and was un
usually fine. The committee in
charge wishes to thank all those who
kindly assisted in help make one of
the most successful affairs of the kind
ever given here. Seward should be
justly proud of the support given this
movement, for besides the money ob

which amounted to almost three hun

nine dollars have already been con
tributed for membership to the na
