W. Carter Mortuary. Accord- ng to Mrs. Willlam Noble, who accompanied the remains to Ju- neaw, Mrs. Edmiston had suffered a fall while at the springs which added to the serious condition in which she has been for some time and this is believed to have has- tened the end. One of the most beloved women in Douglas, Mrs. Edmiston, whe was born in Glasgow in 1880, has Dbeen a resident of the Island for 14 years. After leaving ‘he old country, she resided in Vancouver for nearly four years. She is sur- vived by her hushand, two chil- dren, Miss' Elsie Edmiston, a son Archie, and three sisters, Mrs. Robert Fraser of Douglas and two | sisters, married in Scotland. She was a member of Nugget Ch, ter No. 2, O. E. S, and the La- dies’ League. The funeral is set for Friday at; 2:15 p. m. The services will be held under the auspices of the Bastern Stars in the Odd Fellows hall. Rev. L. D. Hammock will assist . with the services. Inter- ment will be made in the Eagles’ Cemetery. Mrs. Edmiston had been in fail- ing health for almost ten years but was never wiiling to give in to her ailments. Only her pluck Has kept her alive since the seri- ous operation which she under- went in Seattle last summer. Miss Elsie Edmiston, who has been teaching at Healy Forks dur- ing the past winter, arrived home on the Aleutian last night, her term having ended the last of April. ——— - — GOES TO SKAGWAY Ed Swindie, who arrived here only last week for a visit, left Jast night on the Admiral Rogers for Skagway where he expects to have charge ¢! one of ikhe taxis used a carrying tourists about the town. —————-— INTEREST LOOMS, BASEBALL At a meeting of the baseball fans which was held in the fire hall last night sufficient interest was manifested to encourage a start toward getting up a team on the Island. The Douglas Island Women’s Club, which re- cently gave a benefit affair to se- cure funds for a new grand stand, has $40.00 which they have agreed to turn over to the Fire Depart- ment. ————————— “GORILLA HUNT” IS AT LIBERTY TONIGHT ‘A pageant of the wild life of darkest Africa. That is the way in’ which “The Gorilla Hunt,” which opens at the Liberty to- night, impresses all who may see it: Try to imagine, long lines of safaris, carrying heavy burdens over grassy plains, littered with ‘bleaching bones where one of killers has met and slain his victim, grassy plains where ante- -jof Washington, lopes and otner game are as num erous as caltle, and seem as tame, until the scent of some killer o: perhaps the strange scent of hu mans sends them scampering away. The trip on the river is one long thrill, the Congo flows be- tween banks that are as lovely as any ‘in the world, and none of the the majesty of the im rest that lines this mys tery enveloped stream. Huge alli gator and pythons make the lurking places of death, and even in the stream with treacherous cu nts, death and |danger lurks in a thousand forms Giant hippopotomi lie on the mud dy flats, or stn themsely the occasional shallows, huge sive looking brutes, but with terrific jaws and strength that gives charge a menace to face. “Everything is “Hotsy Totsy” in Alice Day's com of IIIP same name, which wili be another fea ture of the program. armed mas;:ive to the that few care UNITED STATES LAND OFFICE ANCHORAGE, ALASKA.
