VERY HANDSOME
SUITE DF ROOMS
•
The east suite of rooms of the
Pullen bouse, which have perhaps
been occupied by a greater num
ber of distinguished guests at var
ious times withiu the past few
years than any other place of a
similar character 'n Alaska, have
just been thoroughly overhauled
and renovated under the supervi
sion of Mrs. Pullen. The suite con
sists of bedroom, bathroom, sit
ting room and diuing room. The
sitting room and dining room have
been repaperd with handsome pat
terns of wall paper, new and ex
pensive Wiltou velvet carpets cov
er the floors and beautiful cream
colored lace curtains are draped,
over the windows. -
The walls of each of these
rooms art* covered with native cu
rios, basketry, carvings, etc, be
sides numerous photographs of well
known people and views of scenes
that are familiar to all those
who have lived long in the nor
thern regions.
The furniture of these rooms is
'also of the best, the center table
in the dining room being of solid
mahogany, the polished surface of
which gives back a reflection al
most as though produv,«,d by a mir
ror.
Taken altogether the suite is
luxurious in all its appointments
and well worthy the labor and
money that have been expended
upon its embellishment.

lecturer of the Pacific Coast S. S.
company returned yesterday irom
Dyea, where for several days she
was the guest of Mr. and Mrs.
Ernest 15. Richter at the famous
fox ranch of the Richter brothers.
The first'social function since the
early days of the gold rush was
given iu honor of Mis. Hart by
Mr. and Mrs. Richter 011 Saturday
evening, and every inhabitant of
the town was present, including
Mayor Emil E. Klatt, councilman
Wa. E. Matthews, and others.
Mrs. Hart is again the guest of
Mrs, Harriet S. Pullen, who gave
in her honor at the Pullen house
last evening, a progressive 500
party of several tables, in which
A. M. Rousseau carried off
the prize, scoring 2400 points in
six rounds. A sumptuous mid
night collation was served, with
toasts io Mrs. Pullen, the genial
hostess, and to Mrs. Hart, the
guest of honor, who leaves tomor

San Francisco and will stop enroute
tor another brief visit with the

woman in Alaska, having served as
special Alaska commissioner ol
education, art and woman's work,
both at the St. Louis and Seattle
expositions, her appointment com
ing from the dept. of the Interior,
and in this capacity, as well as
that of writer and lecturer, she
has made scores of voyages thru
out our northern territory, and
has unvaryingly boosted the coun
try, its people and resources, both
by tongue and pen. She confident
ly predicts a tenfold increase in
the value of her mining interests,
following the recent passage of the
Alaska railroad bill, and intends
to make her permanent home in
the north after the close of the ex
position. Her present mission of
securing native work and crafts

club exhibit, has been very satis

Upon Mrs. Hart's departure to

for which she has done and is
still doing so much.

FOUND GIANTS IN CHINA.
Baldheaded Women Too—Feet Bound
So Tight They Were Cut.
Washington.—Major K. M. Ashburn
of the army medical corps has un
earthed some strange things iu China
as a result of his studies of tropical
diseases. He reports to the war de
partment that he found three giants
each about eight feet high. Two of
them were gate keepers at a zoological
garden, one of them apparently normal
except lor his great size, while, says
the major, the other man had a harsh,
resonant, deep bass voice, such as he
had never heard before.
Many bald headed women attracted
the major's attention, and these wo
men attempted to hide their baldness
"by the use of black paint or stain,
which merely looked dirty.1'
Major Ashburn discovered a strange
predilection of the Chinese doctors for
plasters aud paste, and he declared "it
is a rare Chinaman who does not have
a plaster stuck on some.part of his
anatomy." Finally he discovered that
the practice of foot binding to reduce
the size was carried on by the Chinese
women to such an excess as sometimes
to necessitate the amputation of the
feet
