Mr. Dorsch, representative of sev
eral capitalists, is at Kodiak for ihe
purpose o f investigating placer
ground in this part of Alaska
The Bertha slipped into Kodiak,
early November 26, without a whistle
to aHhounce her approach. We did
not expect a boat so soon for we knew
the "Portland” could u?t te back by
that time. There was hurrying to
learn the news and the hour of her
departure, for a party from the Orph
anage was to take passage on her.
in the afternoon she left, carrying
Mr. and Mrs. Wirak and baby Antoi
neta, Irene Foreman, and Wanya
Ostragan. We wish them every bles
sing in their new homes.
The steamer "Dora” has gone to
Seattle for repairs and no boat ha9
yet come in her stead.
Captain Charles Brown " returned
from Seldovia on the Bertha just iu
time to eat dinner with his daughter,
Ofdotia, befoie she left for Oregon.
Mr William Lowell, of Seward,
is spending a month at Kodiak and
has been ever several times to see
bis children, Alexandria, John, Eva,
and Frank.
The mail on the Bertha was a sad
disappointment as there were only a
few letters, instead of the usual heavy
pouch. Registered letters and pack
ages, and papers came but the first
class mail was evidently side-tracked
by some one whose dnty it is to hast
en it to its destination. The cost to
the Government was as great as usual
but little good was accomplished. It
the Department would make an ex
ample of the incompetents and de
linquents occasionally our mail ser
vice would doubtless be improved.
