MAN DIES IN t
GREAT AGONY
Karl Karsten Accidentally Dis
charges Rifle While Tak
ing it from Boat.
(Petersburg Report.1
Kart Karsten was accidentally stmt
and killed by bis own rifle on the
beach in Rocky Pass, near the Monte
Carlo fox ranch, early tills week,
according to word brought to town
*y Jacob Had! ind and Olaf Olson
on Tuesday. Paul Land was depu
tised to brng in the body by Com
missioner Clifton, but so far has not
arrived.
According to the story as told by
Olson and Hadland, Karsten and Ol
son were engaged In running a trap
lino In that section ami living on a
ga sboat.
On Monday Karsten went ashore
In the only skPf after bark for the
stove, taking with him his gun and
ax and a sack. He d;J not return
for some time and Olson became
worried but was unable to reach
shore for many hours, or until low
tide. 01 son made a search and found
the skiff on the beach, not tied, with
the ax and sack in It and the rifle
lying in It with an empty shell in
the chamber.
lie took the skiff and rowed to the
fox ran h and got Jacob Hadland to
go back with him. Hadland walked
the be.eh while Olsan rowed along
with the skiff. After going a short
distaic i , Hadland found tracks In
the snow leading towards the woods
ind f 'towing th 11 dt co- ‘r-' d K r
ten lying ill the brush nt til? cl- >
nf foe tx a eh, on his face, and <1 id,
Tim hra-h and snow w.s consid
erable t Paw pi 3*1 down. Indicating that
Karsten had died after considerable
• r a struggle. Hull ind and Olson
did rot touch the*body, but cam? to
town nt. once ind reported t j the
authorities.
It l.s supposed that IC irsten or.
landing saw something to shoot a
and reached for the gun, which must
h ive been dis -harged accidentally,
the bullet entering the body at some
point as yet unknown, and that Kars
ten made for th** woods nt once
probably knowing that ha did not
have strength to row back to his
ga sboat.
I bpttor known 'is "Dutch Henry”
I lu*rr». He came north from Juneau
I about two years at i anti has been
around this section since that time.
He Ip known to have boon born near
I Hamburg and at or.e thus* served in
I the German navy, holding an offi
^er’s com miss ion. Ho worked for a
number of years as a mine contrac
tor in tlie big mines of the Juneau
section and a-Pter comltlg here worked
for a time as logging contractor for
Jack Hahsoth.

ku make an alluring appeal.
To tboae who have never been to
the Orient, as well as to those who
have been there, the Far East calls
most seductively.
Hong Kong has long figured in
tale and song as a pivotal point in
the Oriem, Lut it now comes for
ward with a bid for attention as
a winter resort. She wishes it to I
be distinctly understood that she
has a wonderful climate for the
greater part of the year and at n
| season when the temperate rone is
more or less tied up with unpleas
ant weather involving piercing
storms of rain, snow and sleet
Besides being probably the most
important port in the Orient, hav
' ing a position in the world’s com- j
jjnerca near the head of the lis^l
Hong Kong has a distinctive beauty
that makes it one of the most beau
tiful sea cities. It possesses not
one, but three of the best harbors
in the world.
Established as a British Crown
Colony in the reign of Victoria, it
is ruled by a British Governor Gen
eral and is British territory. This
gives it a stability of government
which appeals to the Occidental and
also gives the traveller comforts of i
a civilization which are congenial
to him.
Hong Kong is situated on n
series of high hills which rise al
most sheer i>om the blue tropical
seas. The chief of these hills is
called the “Peak” and on this are
built the beautiful homes of the
whites for none but whites may
cricket, bowling
and nil of the other amuse
ments which are known “at home.”
Besides these, it is set in the center
uf the Orient and with it as a head
quarters, it is possible to make side
trips to places of interest in the Far
Bast from Yokohama to Singapore.
Trans-Pacific and Trans-Canada
transportation facilities have been
so improved that it is but little
longer to go to Hong Kong than it
is to travel to the Mediterranean.
Ihe Canadian Pacific has the larg.
rst and fastest steamers on the Pa
cific and they cover the distance
from Vancouver to Hong Kong,
topping at Y'okohamn, Kobe ami
Shanghai ci» route, in 17 days.
These stops give the traveller op
portunity to get a very good binls
eye view.
