SEN. DIMOND IMPATIENT
Senator A. J. Dimond, Democrat
ic candidate for Delegate to Con
gress, who was injured last week
in Fairbanks when an airplane en
gine back-fired sehding the idle
propeller around to strike him on a
shoulder, may be in the hospital
for several days, KFQD announced
Saturday. And should Senator Di
mond continue his campaign im
mediately upon being discharged,
it will be necessary for him to car
ry an arm in a sling. He is very im
patient to continue his campaign
ing, it is reported.
SHIP NOT TIED UP
Evidently Heinie must be out of
it now. Or perhaps in the first place
it was all a bunch of “hooey.” A
report here last week was to the
effect that Captain Heinie Berger,
owner and master of the MS Dis
coverer, had his vessel tied up by
the Alaska Railroad in lieu of pay
ment of something like $95 for
wharfage charges at Anchorage
to which Captain Berger protested.
However, the MS Discoverer sailed
Sunday from Anchorage for Seldo
via.
The recent arrival of the SS Ad
miral Watson, of the P. S. S. Co.,
in the Port of Seward marked her
last scheduled voyage of the sea
son here and to the Westward.
William Wise of Seattle arrived
on the last steamer from the south
and has been employed by the
Seward Dairy as a farm hand.
DOUBLE TRAGEDY
DEL MONTE, Calif., Sept., 12,—
A double tragedy occured here
Sunday in the finding of the bod
ies of Mrs. Edna Killian and her
husband, Howard. It is believed
the woman, despondent from fin
ancial worry, killed her husband
while he slept, then committed sui
cide.
A FISH STORY
DES MOINES, Sept. 12, —Eddie
Green fished all day and didn’t
land a fish or even get a bite. So
he thought he would take a £wim,
anyway, before returning home.
It was then that he got his first
bite; a cat-fish bit him on the foot
and only after a half-hour were
hospital attendants able to pry the
fish loose from his big toe.
