Mr. G, K. Betts, assistant cashier,
In the- Bank of Alaska, is severing
his connection with that instiution.
Since hj? residence in Skagway Mr.
Betts has made many friends for
hiirselt as well as for the bank.
Hig agreeable manner and strictly
business methods have gained f°r
him the friendship and' respect of
the patrons of the bank as well «s
all who haev had the pleasure of
meeting him socially.
Mr. Betts la a true lover of na
ture and his spare time wag mostly
spent in the open and there ^are
maty who will miss the "hikes'' in
th« mountains that he was the insti
gator of last summer.
Mr. Betts will lavee on one of
the first boats f°r Seattle and* he
Wi-1 carry with him the best wishes
o* an host of well wishers and the
A:askan is one of them.
There will be a train out tomor
row morning at nine o'clock, and a
train wil' arrive from Whitehorse on
Friday afternoon at the regular

Yesterday was the rainiest day
seen in Skagway for many years and
it is doubtful if there ev«r was a
rainier day. The water came down
in sheets and stood* on the streets
In great puddles which is an extra
ordinary thing in Skagway.
Tony Dortero was taken to the
Whi'e Pass hospital night before

worries of th0 past few days over
tha death of hig son Vincent, in
the (raining camp at Fort Dodge,
Iowa, has weighed very heavily on
Mr. Dortero and it will be some
days before he will be able to be
around again.
John Nott c-ould not knit, so he
invented a knitter which would knit,
and which Nott called the "Nott
Knitter.'i But the "Nott Knitter'"
could not knit a knot, and; Nott
tnerefor© had to ti« he knoa which
the "Nott Knitter" could not knt.
But one day Nott, While not tying
knots for the "Nott Knitter" invent
ed an attachment for th© "Nottt
Knitter" which could knit knots) and
which he called the "Nott Knotter."
And when the "Nott Knotter" was
attached to the "Nott Knitter" he
"Nott Knotter" would knit the knot
whicjj ha "Nott Knitter'? ccul# not
knit And not e knitter could knit
kncta like the knots that Nott knit
with he '"Nott Knotter" for the
"Nott Knitter.'s
Then Nott fell in lovo with a knit
ter who knitted knotp with the
"Nott Knotter'4 for the Nott
Knitter, and he *sked her to not
knit knots any longer, but he a
little Nott forever. But the knitter
said "Nit!'!
