| SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING
| Mayor Keller called a special
meeting of the City Council last
evening for the purpose of consider
ing protests on the street work and
the transaction of other work. The
protest was made that the rock
composing the dressing being put or
State street is too large. This is to
be remedied by the placing of a coat
ing of finer rock to cover the larger
ones. The fault was made by those
loading the cars at the slide.
The Mayor appoijted Councilmen
Hanson, Smith and Eville as town
representatives to cooperate with
the fraternal and other organiza
tions iu the city for a Fourth of July
celebration.
The Council ratified the agree
ment made by the Commutes on
Kire and Water with the Home Pow
er company relative to the use of
water for power washing machines
Those using water motors for wash
ing purposes from this on will De
taxed ii a month for the use of wa
ter for such motors. One half the
above tax is to go to the Home Pow
er company and one half :o the city.
The Council plans to set men to
work on straightening up and re
pairing the sidewalks just as soon
as the street work now being done
is finished. It is not planne 1 to put
in any considerable sectiop of new
waliid this ystr.

Names of Indians and Orientals.
I.Ike our American redwen, the tlrl
entals put a good deal of poetry as
well as keen analysis of character inm
th'-ir personal names, writes Garrett
[•. Serviss in the Ohicagi American.
Thus Isaac meant "laughter,'' Jacob
"supplant er." "Isaiah "salvation.' De*
boralt "l>ee." Sarah ••princess." Dunns
"gracious." Rachel "ewe." David "he
lmed." Kuth "beauty" and TauiHr
"palm tree." t'enlmore I'ooper. in
his matchless "Leatherstocking" tab-*,
finely illustrates the American Indian
method of bestowing personal names
when lie makes his great hero of ti e
Woods explain some of the successive
names which his admiring friends gave
him.

"Explaining" Miracle.
In the twentieth chapter of II Kings,
eleventh verse, one reads that "Isaiah
the prophet cried unto the Lord, and
He brought the shadow ten degrees
backward, by which it had gone down
in the dial of Aliaz."
It is a curious fact, first pointed out
by .noik-z, the famous cosmographer
and mathematician of the Sixteenth
| century, that by tilling a sun dial
| through the proper angle the shadows.

planation of the miracle here related

HAINES NOTES
Walter Shortridge died here on
Sunday evening about four o'clock.
Mr. Shortridge has been blind for
many years. His home was in Kluk
wan, and he leaves a wife and two
or three small children.
Mrs. S. J. Weitzman left on the
I Jefferson with little Nathan for Se
attle. We are not informed as to
whenther Mrs. Weitzman will make
tier home in Seattle or return here,
but as all of her property interests
are here, she will very likely return
and make her home here.
Mrs. Wilder and Miss I<yle Mor
ris, both daughters of Mr. Frank
Morris, the Port Seward plumber,
left on the Jefferson for Craig,
where Mrs. Wilder will join her
husband. Miss Morris is going with
her for a vacation trip, ns she has
not been absent from Haines for
any length of time for many ais,
and the outing will do her good.
Mr. Tim Vogel was up yesterday
from the Haines Packing company's
cannery and reports that they will
I lie ready when the fishing season
opens.

showed were possible if Skagway
was made the center around which
to arrange their itinerary.

TRAIL BLAZERS—ATTENTION
No such thing as a little =prinkle
of rain in the morning will keep
the spirited trail makers of the Al
pine club and their friends from
finishing that trail this very night.
Then get your trusty axe, which it
is presupposed you have sharpened
for the occasion, and start promptly
for that dinner rendezvous on the
A. B trail. Eat your fill of the ex
cellent meal the lady Alpiners will
furnish and then go forth to do val
iant and needful service for your
I town and your homes, and your
friends who may want to travel
there. Every business house, every
hotel, every institution in the city
should have a representative. The
work is being done for all, and all
should help it on. Come one! come
all! Half past five is the hour.
