MR. E. II. OWEN' RETURN'S
After many months upon the \
great oceans, Mr. Owen returnB to j
hi* family and friends in Skagway. j
His smallest boy, Jack, now a hus- i
ky lad did not know his Daddio when j
he came back, but was not long in i
getting acquainted.
Mr. Owen has been chief enginees
on the Esther Dollar, a big fourteen
thousand-ton freighter, which cir
cumnavigated the globe four times
since he has been witl,. her. She was
built in the Glasgow yards, and
bought by the Germans, but during
the war was captured by the British
and bought by the Dollar Interests. '
The vessel is a glorified tramp
steamer calling ut all the principal
ports of almost every country on the
face of the globe. Through coral
seas, with water us smooth as a mill
pond, and through oceans with
waves like massive mountains about
to drop down upc your boat, yet
ever on and on In a never ending
tramp around the world. Such has
been the experience of Mr. Owen
through the months of bis absence
tfom Skagway.
* His home port was San Francisco,
but the boat only reached that port
occasionally and then only stayed
just long enough to get supplies for
another trip. He sustained an In
jury while in the Orient, from which
he has happily almost fully recov
ered. and now declares he is going to
see more of his family.
He is looking fine ami has taken
011 considerable flesh since he left
Skagway. Speaking of the passage
of the Panama Canal, Mr. Owen
says Its interests to note with what
speed and skill the big boats are P»t
through the three locks on each end
of the canal. But eight hours are
consumed in the passage of the canal
and every one passing through that
section is struck with the entire ab
sence of the usual tropical mosqui
to. Four electric donkeys are at
tached to the front and two donkeys
to the stern of the boats as they
pass through the locks. Each lock
lifts the boat twenty feet and it Is
done in a few moments.
Of the many cities visited, Genoa
impressed Mr. Owen as being the fin
est in some respects, and a trip thru
Messina Straits, in the evening, with
Stromboll sending forth great mass
es of molten lava, which stream
down its sides. Is a sight never to he
forgotten .Yet at its foot, fishermen
live quietly never fearing the aval
anche that may sometime blot out
their homes and boats, and them
selves and their famines.
Life on the sea is great If you like
it, and !f you do not have a family
which you want to see more than
once in two or three years.
Washington. Dec. 8.—Representa
tive Connally In a speech in the
House today, stated that the Amer
ican observers at the Lausanne Peace
Conference had asserted themselves
emphatically whenever the "Holy"
question of oil was brought into the
conference.
STRIKE ON THE KATSZHIN
According to reports coming in,
and the number of claims staked.
SUagway, Haines and Lynn Canal is
to be treated to a gold boom.
In the valley of the Katszhin, op
pi site Battery point, about sixteen
miles south of here, 42 gold claims
have been staked and recorded with
in the past few weeks.
Commissioner Ward has recorded
forty-two claims thus far and it is
not known but that others will be
recorded. It has b^en known for a
long time that golrt colors could be
found In the valley, but none have
heretofore been found in sufficient
quantity to warrant going there.
D. F. and Neil Malloy, Carl Logan, I
James Logan, four McCloskeys and
two Mahers, have staked the claims
which comprise a large part of the
valley. Other than the staking of
the claims, we have no Information
as to the strike.
