j SEATTLE, May 21. (/P) —A week
hence Nicholas Oeconomacos, the
Seattle clarinetist, will take his in
strument and play in the streets
to obtain the necessities of life.
The musician said the close of
the symphony season and the few
summer calls for orchestral music
forced him to play in the streets.
Twenty thousand musicians are
out of work in the United States, he
said, and he will have a sign be

ALEUTIAN HISTORY
The following is practically a
literal translation ifom the Rus
sian taken from the manuscript
of Ft. Gedeon, priest-monk of
the Aexandro-Nevsky Cathedral,
Moscow, Russia and was written
in Kodiak between 1804 and 1807.
The Gateway is informed that it
has never before appeared in
print.

WHALING
Yearly about 30 of the best
hunters of Kadiak and Afognak
remained behind to hunt whale in
the vicinity of those two islands.
From two to four men were dis
patched to various bays, accord
ing to locality; the hunters would
come out in single hatch biarkas
selecting whale-yearlings, as their
flesh and fat are more tender and
| more agreeable.
■ On observing such a whale, they
j would approach him within no
jmore than three fathoms, endeav
| oring to spear him under the side j
j fin or flipper and retreat quickly
j and carefully away so that the
wnak ommaxing a dive would not;
crush the hunter or upset his bid- i
arka. If he is unable to spear the |
whale under the flipper, he spears 1
him under tne tail. On oeing 1
wounded, the whaie goes to the i
bottom. j
If speared rightly, the whale;
lloats up dead on the third day; 1
! n speared a little away from the :
j flipper towards the tail, the wdiale :
! will float up in five or six days; r
! but should he be speared under;
i the tail, he wrould not float up'
! , t
. until tne eight or ninth day.
’ The hunter, observing such i
| floating whale, immediately in-!
■ forms the . bidarstchik of the near- j
. est artel; from the spear it is de-|
termined whose whale it is and
such a one is given the smallest!
half of the whale for his work; ;
however, this is seldom accom-!
plished. This rule was made only
for appearances. The flippers,
tail, the belly part and all such
parts as are considered the best
are taken by the company and
part of the sinew that is given
to the hunter is amost useless.
Some hunters kill as many as
eight whales during a summer and
even as many as 10. Whoever kills
over four—which is imposed as
I tax—receives from the company
payment in goods to the amount
of five roubles.
