DATE SET FOR
MINSTREL SHOW
—— ^
Ths cat is out of the bag, and the
wonderful Herlock Shomes has
achieved another vl. toiy. He shoudl
be given a medal of honor, for he|
has unravelled the greatest mystery
that has harassed the people of
Skagway since the good old Smithy
Soap <Jays. After sleepless days,
and drousy nights, spent pussy
footing his quary, he has made hLs
grand discovery. ! j •
Friday night i6 fch^ date. Yea,
the great conspiracy, the great
plot, which the Elks have been
formulating against the grouch and
th© pessimist will l»e consummated
Friday night.
A real old* fashioned, burnt-cork,
I say. Sambo ,and all the rest that
goes to make up a minstrel show
will be staged by Skagway Lodge
No. 431, B. P. O. Elks, and It la
strictly a benefit affai.r the pro-»
ceeds to &o to the Skagway branch
of the Red Cross.
The most noted' men with brains
la town have been called upon for
Jokes, and from some Bcripit that
Herlock Shomes picke-l up in front
of th© Elks hall a few nights ago
on which several of these master'
pieces had been notd ia pencil
hears this theory out. Mr. Shomes
immediately subjected the paper
and" writing to chemical tests, and
comparing the thumb marks and
thumb-nail indentures proved beyon,
a scintila of doubt that this *'as
the work of one of the most prom
inent and respected citizens of our
city—one who has enjoyed the es
teem, and love, and confidence of
the people, and it ha3 been oft
time said that the children have
alwavs lcoked' upon him With af
fectionate pride, and now it has
been almost conclusively proven
that he has been a party in this
conspiracy. Remember, Friday, May

London, April 30. — A total of
100,000 women are now on the pay
roll of the Prusslaa-Hessian Rail
way. ten times as many as there
were before the war, according to a
statement of Her vou Brelteabach,
the Prussian minister of railways,
quoted in the Lelpzige Dlustrierte
Zeitung, j
"Id certain kinds of work," h« say
"it hag been found that the women,
are in. all respects as efficent as the
men whom they replace, especially
when their training has been abou£
the same. In other lines of work,
especially those requiring unusual j
exertion or continued physical la
bor, the efficiency of women is 50
.to 75 per cent that of the men."
Von Breitenbach states that the
number of yomen employed by this
line will probably increase stm fur
ther as the war goes on.

when Scout Anderson's report of a
trip into the Buffalo Fork country
contained, uncter the heading of
predatory animals killed, a mention
of one mountain lion, one bobcat,
four, coyotes, and an Airedaie d-og.
This dog:, which probably wander
ed into the park from some farm
or settlement a few' miles over the
border, h.a« been living in the Yel
lowstone in a wild' state for several
years. Whether or not he fraterniz
ed with his cousins the wolves and
the coyotes can not be known cer
tainly. No doubt he lived as they
live at the expense of young- and
weaker deer an# elk, and smaller
|»rey. ProDably he lived alone,
against all animal kind as they
were against hUni There are well
authenticated'instances of dogs thus
returning "to savage nature. It
■peaks, well for his tenacity and
strength that, alone of his kind in
a country wbere all kinds of wild
animals live still their natural lives,
he survived. He may have been
a dog of good pedigree.
Anyway, the dog had been seen
*t intervals for several years and
tii officially classed- among the
animals which, alone of all Yellow
.stone's animals, are sought and
| killed because destructive of the
harmless animals which make of
! this national park the best poipulat
I ed' wild animal preserve in the
; world.
