BINOCULARS STOLEN
FROM MS DISCOVERER
It appears that thieves around
Seward have a yen for stealing
binoculars, for during the early
hours of this morning, when En
gineer Jack Wilkinson was down
inside the MS Discoverer, working
on the engine, someone boldly de
scended the wharf ladder, boarded
the boat, entered the pilot house
and walked off with a pair of the
boat’s prized binoculars. Engineer
Wilkinson immediately brought out
a “five-guage” shotgun, carried on
the boat expressively for the pur
pose of tearing out the seat of
marauding persons’ trousers when
they disappear over the edge of
the wharf with anything of the
Discoverer’s boat supplies from a
belaying pin to the engine, but
came up one second to (late to
send home a broadside of duck
shot.
Incidentally, Capt. Berger says
that if the culprit who stole the
binoculars will come back tonight
he can take the engine or the boat
itself if he can get it from under
the eye of a watchful person who
will guard the vessel 597s seconds
of every hour.
The Seward schools resumed to
day after having been closed for
two days of last week owing to the
number of absent pupils. An im
provement in attendance was noted
at classes this morning.
T. W. Hawkins, head of Brown &
Hawkins Corporation, is planning
to depart for Seattle on the SS
Victoria.
R. A. Hall, assistant to J. H.
Flickinger, local representative of
the Alaska Steamship Company, ac
companied by Mrs. Hall and son
Calvin, leave on the SS Victoria
for Seattle where a number of
weeks will be spent with parents
and relatives.
