Haines Notes
| Miss Jackson of the Presbyterian
board of home missions litis arriv
ed and opened the hospital building
for an orphanage for orphan Native
children.
This is a move lu the right direc
tion, und we hope It will prove a
greut success, for there are many of
those Indian children who are prac
tically hopieless, and should be tak
en care of, and the orphanage will
undoubtedly give them a good h>ime
until they are old enough to take
care of themselves.
Mr. and Mrs. Humsey have taken
the Carl Johnson house for the win
ter. Mr. and Mrs. Rumsey are new
comers here from the states, but for
the short time they have been here
they have made many warm friends,
and we are glad that they Intend
making Haines their futura home.
The work of repairing the govern
ment wharf at Fort Seward is pro
gressing towards completion, under
(he management of Mr. Johnson, the
foreman of the works.
A Parent-Teachers association has
been organized with Mrs. Steve Ra
gan as president. The association
contemplate putting on a vaudeville
show In the near future for the pur
pose of raising some money for in
cidental expenses.
We have had for the past three
days about as hard a wind and rain
storm as Haines has experienced in
many years. On Sunday night Jack
David's gas boat was blown ashore
and broken up on the rocks. This
is quite a loss to him.
ESTEBETH ARRIVED
FROM THE SOl'TH
The mail boat Estebeth arrived
today at noon bringing mail and
passengers.
The staunch little craft encounter
ed some hard weather, but made
the trip in less than' schedule time
It is strongly hoped that the mail
contract will again be given the Es
tebeth. as the service rendered by
that company has been the best and
no chances should be taken in
changing to something that is an un
known quantity. The Estebeth is
good enough and should be reward
ed with another four year contract.
The Estebeth will sail this even
ing for the south.
Judge W. B. Stout, the Haines at
torney, was a passenger up from
Haines on the Estebeth. The Judge
came up on legal business and will
return home tonight.
VICTOR GRIMM RETURNS
TO SKAGWAY
Victor Grimm. son of Mr. and
Mrs. Hermann Grimm, arrived in
Skagway on Friday evening from
the westward.
Victor has been gone for some
years and returns to the home of
his birth again, a man in stature
if not in years.
The trip from the westward was
negotiated by Victor by boarding a
number of the halibut fishing 'boats
and proceeding as far as each went
and then taking another. In this
way he circumvented the conges
tion of travel in the big westward
steamers, in which he was unable
to secure passage.
Victor will make his home in
Skagway.
ELK TO MEET OXCE A WEEK
As will be noticed In another col
umn, the B. P. O. Elks will com
mence meeting every week for the
winter season.
Exalted Ruler John Wood is de
termined that the Bill Boys shall get
all there is out of Elkdom and many
new features are to be added to
their already interesting and popu
lar meetings.
Come on. Boys, and get together.
MRS. GRANT BUYS
DRAPER HOME
Mrs. Alice Grant recently pur
chased the Draper home from Louis
Deverelle. A number of real es
tate tranfers have been made and
there are others pending. This is
a good sign and by spring it is ex
pected many more will be entered. (

A BIT OF ADVICE
First—l>oiTt Delay. Second— l>on"t
Experiment
If you suffer from backache; head-1
ache or dizzy spells: if yon rest poor
ly and are languid in the morning,
if the kidney secretions are irregu
lar and unnatural in appearance, do
not delay. In such cases the kid-1
ne.vs often need help.
Roan's Kidney Pills are especially
prepared for kidney trouble they
are recommended by thousands Can
residents desire more convincing
proof than the statement of a cit
izen of this locality?
Geo. Nawotty, butcher. 1349 Oram
St., Bellingham. Wash., says: "I
suffered from lame back and kidnej
trouble. At times when I stooped
I could hardly straighten because j
of the severe pains which caught [
me in the small of my back. I was
subject to pains in the back of my
head and spells of dizziness and nt\
kidneys didn't act right. I saw
Doan's Kidney Pills advertised in j
the paper and one box knocked the j
pains out of my back and head. They
also rid me of the dizziness and I
made my kidneys well."
Price 60c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills—the samel
that Mr. Nawottny had. Foster
