Messrs. Herrington, Gorman, Mc
Queenv, Lanon and McGtteachy arriv
ed iu Skagway on. the Humboldt
last evening and will leave la a
days for Haines enj-oute to
Porcuoine where they have acquired'
a lay on the Alaska Corporation
, holdings.
| They will work as many men. as
■ the property and conditions will
warrant, and they aspect to take
out a good clean-up.
j Ids property 1b Imown to be
I verr rich, audi as all these men are
practical miners with rr.any years
j experience, they should be able to
, realize their expectations.
Mike Rossi, an old' time resident
of this city returned oa the Hum- |
| boldt last Frld-ay after u>eading the
winder in Seattle. Mike says that
Skagway.is good enough for him,
he has had a great sufficiency of
th^ slates for the time being.
"Off at six O'clock in tbe even
ing an<3) back at 4 o'clock in the I
morning," is th® B'ateniout of some)
70 Skagwayans who attended the
First Spring hop given by the
Enlisted Men at Fort Seward' last I
Saturday evening, and then the
bewildering decriptlon of the glor-1
ious excursion and dance begins.
Arriving on the Harbor Boat Pet
erson at the government pier at I
tn<j post, the guests from Skagway
wern met by a large force of khaki
clad soldier boys, and escorted* to J
Company "C" barracks, where ar
rangements had l>ep„ carried out I
w th military precision for com-'
fort, health and happiness of all.
The big squad room on the sec- j
ond1 floor had been converted Into |
a ball room ,and as one entered hel
w»s confronted* by the body of the '
kaiser suspended at the end 0f n
rope. Tho likeness to the kaiser's
p cture was very strking, and) the I
decorations on the chest of the Hun
«as very laughable. Attached to
th belt of the "Man 0f Frghltful
ness" was a placard bearing the |
inscription, "iTease let me hang in
peace." It ; r,jV|"|
The room itself was beautifully
•and artistically decorated with
flags, bunting- pannants and' ever
greens. In the center of the j
dance floor a booth for the c
ches'ia wa« placed, and the
merry dancers stopped* or waltzed
around the big room.
A large room in the front of the
building had been set as!d<e for i
'lie accommodation of the lady I
quests, which had' been supplied
wifh mirrors, and all the othor little
appointments for the comfort and'
pleasure of the fairer sex.
The »upper was served in the
big mess hall which had' seating ac
commodation for forty-four couples,
ar.d the supper served by the sol
diers was most appetizing. ThisJ
room was also beautifully d<ecorat- [
ed, and two sittin.es were required
to provide for the large number in
attendance. The supper was strict
ly a "Hoover" repast, five varieties I
of war bread having been used in
the sandwiches. Tread mad<e of
lice, wheat ai:d a litt'e corn flour;
railed o"<s. white f]our with a little
bran; com flour, bran and wheat;
whole wheat. corn and a little)
bran; rice, rolled* oats, bran, corn
and wlioTe \\1:eat. A little potato
flour was used in all recipes. Fori
the 34 large loaves used, each I
w< ighing from 2 to 3 pounds, the
to'ai cost was a littlo less than
13.50. Two cakes, each having an
area of several square feet were
cut into genorous portions, augment'*,
ed by 16 largo layer cakes of !
various kinds.
Delicious coffee, ice cream, and
pickles completed the menu. The j
•suDper was served by the hosts, eacM
of the boys wearing dainty frilly
lace aprons over their khaki uni
forms. ; ii^i riff
During the supper dancing con
tinued, several 'extra' extras filling
In the program so as not to dlsar- |
range the ord"or of dance as pro- j
vided 'or by the artistic progratas
printed in khaki colored! ink with
khaki colored yarn cords and
tassels.
A number of young couples from
Haines were in attendance.
After the Skagway orchestra had
Played the "Home Sweet Home"
<.<*nce at 1:30 o'clock, everybody in
at tend-nee went their merry way
sincing the praises of the soldiers^
all having enjoyed the hospitality t0

SHAW MAKES
SIB0N6 APPEAL
TO PATRIOTISM
Mr. E. J. Shaw was the Four
Minute Mam speaker at the Popu
lar Picture Palace last night, and!
for 'he time allotted Mr. Shaw, ho
held the attention of the large au
dience with an imtereetnag talk on
the war situation. In, part ha said:
The organization of 4 Minute
Men, of which. I am a member, are
directed' from Washington as to the*
subject of thelr talk on the War,
sq that all through the States the
same subject shall be treated. »t
the same time with, uniformity.
The subject at present is th«
Third Liberty Loaa, but aa this
matter was so ably treated by. Mr.
Halm last week, I a« all of you are
more or less fatailiar with tihe sub
ject, I will only say that the
Skagway alloment of i? 18,000 has
been oversubscribed and that at
present $20,000 has been taken up
and that promises of about ?5,
000 more will materialize befoer
the d«y of the drive, May 4th next
—a splendid, tribute to Skagway'B
tbrift and patriotism, as she has
also taken generously of First and
Second Liberty loans as well- as
the Thrift and' War Saving Stamps.
"President Wilson asks for one
million men—we send two million;
hp asks for four billions in money,
we send eight billions.
"Think of the effect that this
will bave on Germany, which thru
its spy system, keeps the Imperial
German government adviBed of everg
move that this, country is making.
It will have a great effect, show
ing that the people are standing
firmly back of tha government.
"France is blead white on acoount
of the decrease in the birthrate
during the past decade. American
love of democracy, coupled with the
French training and) knowledge of
their country is back of it. We
must expect many reverses before
the tide will turn, as the present
tactics are to inflict the maxi
mum slaugher of men on Germany
with the minimum loss to the Al
lies until the man powerr is revers
ed' by American reinforcements.
"History repeats itself. When
the great Napoleon, then only 25
years of age, took over the French
armv in Italy in 1795 he found
only about thirty thousand badly
clothed, poorly armed and ill fec&
men aerched on the summit of the

He Wants to Borrow Your
Money and Yon Should
Lend It To Him
Your duty to your country
is as fixed as your obligation
to your family. This Is literal
ly true, because if you do not
maintain the integrity of youT
Government your wife Is no
longer secure in your homo
nor your children safe in their
school.
Mind you. Uncle Same does,
not ask you to GIVE this mon
ey, here merely wants you to
lend it. Every penny you
can afford to advance is that
much saved for your own use
in the tranuil days when hu
manity shall have emerged
from this agony of blood
carnage. i
You may respond as freely
as you will in the assurance
that your money will not be
used for the hateful and ghast
ly business of conquest.
It will be spent to sooth the
"hurts of those who are maimed,
to feed those who are hungry,
to clothe those who are not
clad, to shelter those who are
homeless, and to gird Liberty's
defending hosts for their migh
ty task of crushing the brutal,
■blaspheming plunderer who.
has so shamelessly violated thi
peace and honor of the world
and all hut made it captive.

Aipa, facing an. Austrian force of
sixty thousand fully equipped, and.
trained la the German fashion,
to fight like machines, inspired
wi»i but one thought "to obey."
"The French army had one great
asse% however; the fierce fire of
the French revolution and the love
of Uoerty, and Into those men
Napoleon threw1 the might of his
sreat genius, and the thought that
evrey sol elder carried a marshal's
baton ln his knapsack, what was
the result? The enthusiasm of that
half starved army overcame the
trained host of Austria. Not on- j
ly this one, but two more of equal |
strength that were sent to their re" !
lief. In six months. th« French
were at the gates of Vienna.
"I* was another case of the
"Esprite de Corps" overcoming1
skilled discipline and machine ef";
ficiency. So will it ba when now,
after Its first real t>aptism of fire, j
the American) soldier and his j
French associate will meet the hair*
e*J hosts of Germany, THE AL
LIED WILL WIN, perhaps not in
a few months, perhaps not in a
year, but win they will and1 must.
"Whoh at last the settlement of
(thi0 conflict comes before the fin
a! tribunal, let it l>e hoped that the£
will remember Belgium, the help-'.
lvss children, maimed and butcher
ed, the women ravished! by Imperial,
orders, the frightful result of .Ge/"'

tribunal forget tbe modern max*
ims of justice, and remember only
that the law that was thundered
from Sinai over forty centuries 'Ago
lias never been repealed, the law"

Eye, a Tooth for a Tooth" and then,
let Justice be meted out to German
Kultur in full accordance."
Saturday evening the big wWte
'earn of horses belonging to the Al
aska Transfer company which was
being driven by Dan McKay, Jr., ran
away iron? in front off MjcKay's
house and started) for the barn, on
lower Second avenue. So anxious"
were ttey io get to the "manger, that
the horses left the wagon, which
liag been hauling earth for the rfv'

tered alone their line of flight. The
horses were not injured.
