MYSTERY S1ILL
! MYSTIFIES
Theie Is still much mystery sur
rounding that Elk's minstrel show
that is going to bo pulled, oft In the
very near distance, the greatest
mysterious feature being the exact
date. Those who are going tQ
lako part in the performance Bay
their experience is greatly like the
actor who enlisted in the army.
When lie was asked how he liked;
army life he paid* "Oh, 1 like the
life all right, but I'm not much
stuck cn tho stajg© manager. He'l
hi—1 on rehearsals. And the mys
terious Elks say the same about
their 3. M.
Mr. Phonies, tho eminent defec-!
tive, disguised as a boot-l>lack,
made his way into the hall last
night and made a number of inter
esting deductions from what he
saw.
Bones were lying about every
where, and for a time Herlock
thought that he was on the( traek
of some terrible crime, but he soon
fouad tfcat these were rattle bones,
the kind that Sambo, on the end,
uses when lie cracks a joke.
He tried to get the date of the
f-ntcitaimuent, but all he could find
out was that the publicity commit
tee would firs have to find out
what numbers the printing of
fice had in the largest type before
'he day was set.
(Ed. Note) We hope that it will
be before the luth and not eonig on
"■ day that will require two numbers
which are the same, ie., 4-11-44.
From advice received here from
For» bpward, the plans for the
First Spring hop, to be given by the
enlisted men there are rapidly tak
ing: concrete form, and all will
be in jeadiness when the Peterson
arrives at Fort Seward Saturday ev
ening with the crowd from Skagr
way. i T.,f|
It wll 60 a program dance, and
it is understood that some of
the Sammies have sent cables to
ladies here requesting dances, ix>me
of the boys asking for as many as
three ("ances with the same girl.
Th^y evidently bt-lieve <n prepared
ness. The Skasrway orchestra will
Ko down from here, and several
new dance selections will be played
for the first time in public.
The Peterson will leave here at
6 o'clock, and N. E. Black Is
booking agent for the affair.
YOTKR ASKS A QUESTION
Mr. Shaw, you ask for the Wotes
ii. Skagway. You state you are a
Democrat. Thanks! But if you
should offer your house for sale
we would be more interested in the
condition of the house than the
color cf your coat. What is your
platform? What do you stand
for? If elected, what will you do?

Taking the Joy Out of Life.
Tin y had been dining in state, in the
dining cur. liusl and, who is a teacher
of English, was ;:iad tiiat little daugh
ter had behaved so perfectly. Mother
also was in a happy frame of mind.
There were numerous other diners In
the car and the parents were proud of
their child. Not a single thing had hap
pened to mar the serenity of the oc
casion. Finally I lie meal was over and
they started to leave the car. Their
way took them past all of the other
tables. Suddenly the little girl felt
impelled to ask a question.
"Mother," she called in a shrill voice,
"aren't we going to wash the dishes?"
Patient Littie Penny.
The patient little penny is comvng
into its own. Not that it has not
had a certain popularity for religious
collections and blind beggars, but
aside from the purchase of papers
anil matches and to put into weigh
ing machines, it has not been In
great demand of late years. The
nickel was bins. It did not go to
church so often, but it was exclusive
and preferred to keep Its own com
pany. Now it cannot accomplish much
without the aid of the brownie, which
—until packages are reduced at least
will enjoy something of its ancient
glory.—Richmond Times-Dispatch.
Capable Looking Men.
Very capable looking young men
