FISHERMEN OPPOSE BILL

The Perkins fishery bill that will seri- ously affect the fishing industry of Alas ska is being criticised harshly by every fisherman who is independent of the Alaska Packers Association. The bill purports to protect the independent fishermen. The following is sn extract from the bin, and shows how this pro. tection is to be afforded
 "No salmon hatchery shall be located by public authority or by any private interest on any stream or it's tributary or headwster lake, either of which has previously been occupied in good faith by any other person, firm or corporation with a salmon hatchery that annually produces ten million or more red or king salmon fry, and no private hatch cry shall hereafter be located on any unoccupied stream, its tributary or head water lake without the permission of the secretary of commerce and labor" The above paragraph cites ths manner of protection to previously located pri. vate hatcheries; the following gives the proposed plan Of encouraging the main- tsnance of such plants:
 That there shall be granted from the public domain to syery owner of pri- vate salmon hatchery with an annual capacity Of ton million or more rcd or king salmon fry sn appropriate hatchery site net eIcee6ing forty acrsr of non- mineral land, toge.Ler with the use of the adjacent tide lands and sppur.en- ances, and T necessary fresh and salt waters, Ca. r-rta for 1ozd- and ways of ineTess and egrezs, pipe lines, AUmes and coneUits for conducting water and the right to ts-e and nse any timber, stone or other n.uerat from any public lands for the construction, use and raa;nten- ance of such hatchery"
 The bill go.s on further to provide that tha owners of priYa.e Fal'son hatch cries which turn out ten million 0. more red or king salmon fry per year shall have the "preierenca right" to fish for salmon within the distance of three nautical miles measured by straight courses from .he mouth of the streams, or their tributaries CT iakes, where their hatcheries ara si:uased, but this is not intended to prevent anyone from fshing in these waters who has frequented these fields for term Of two years pre- vIous to the enactment of the proposed law.

The Alaska Marble Co. resumed work on the lst inst, and MT. McCauley, who WAS foreman last year, has been sent up in charge for the present.
 There is a rumor going the rounds here that the owners of the L. s. mail steamship Ella ROhlfs are seriously con- templating the adyisability of using 8 device in the form of wheels that can be attached to the bottom of their steamer So that in an emergency such as coming to point of land they can not navigate around without striking, they can adjust the wheels, head for shore full speed and go overland until reaching good waters. If the rumor is correct, then l advise the owners to drop the scheme, as if has not got to the experimental stage yet. Let the experiment be used rather on some old tub of boat that people are nervous when compelled to travel by ner, on account of being per hapE too top heavy, with keel almost gone and stern split, that travels with forced draft seven or eight knots an hour and not likely to return whenever she pulls out of port.

FIREMEN'S
 BIB DANCE Comes Off Tomorrow Night at Red Mems Hall, Biggest
 Dance of the Year ARRANGEMENTS ARE COMPLETE Wransell Lovers of Amusement Are
 Promised a Treat
ARRANGEMENTS ARE COMPLETE

Just about the finest and most enjoy able affair of the season will be the ball to be given by Alert Fire Company No. l, at Red Mems Hall, tomorrow (Friday) evening. All arrangements have been completed by inc committee, and tick cts are on sale in all parts of town.
 A slight change has been made in the plan fast proposed. It was at first the idea that the best and most novel thing would be to sell the ladies' baskets at auction. But upon consideration it was decided to simply sell tickets at sl each for gentlemen and 30 cents each for boys under b, and admitting ladies and girls free, they to bring baskets of lunch. At reasonable hour the lunches will be spread and everybody have "pitch in" on all of it. Coffee and tea will be fur. nishsd by the committee.
 Now, ladies, here is chance for each of you to show your loyalty to the fire department. The fire boys only enter tain once year, and ss the local organ ization is in need of funds, all ladies of Wrangell shonld take a special pride in doing their prettiest on this occasion. Boys, get ont your dancing shoes and fix them up for the biggest dance of the
 year. You will have chance to hop
 on three" until you drop to the floor from sheer exhaustion. And then, your lady friend will be there, and of course
 she will expect you to "do the hand somen by helping to enjoy the lunch. You married men, men of families,
 bachelors and other old stiffs, anyone who has home or business to protect from fire, come out. Ii you do not or can not dance, buy a ticket anyhow, and show the boys that you appreciate their efforts in maintaining the fire de- partment and raising i. to the highest standard Of efficiency.

New York, Feb. 2S.-Dr. Evans was

ed this morning, Evans, after read
Ing letters placed in evidence and
Thaw's willard codicil for the purpose
OF determining whether Thaw was in
sane at the time they were written,
said some of the letters showed that
the writer displayed signs of mental
instability but not insanity in the
sense that he would remain perman-
emily insane. He went into long
explanation for the reasons upon
which he founded his theory. Evans
also said the letters were addressed
to the girl for whose hand the writer
was suing.
Would the fact that the writer, had
been travelling through Europe with
the young woman as man and wife,
though not married to her have any
effect upon your opinion?" was ask
ed.
No, for a man under those circum-
stances may love a woman just as
much as though she were bound to
him by holier ties" was the reply.
There were only fifty spectators
in the court room when the proceed
ings were begun today. Half of these
had left the room by the time recess
was ordered.

Another sensation was sprung by
Jerome announcing that If the defense
did not call DR.. Allen McLane Hamil-
ton, one Of the alienists called in by
.Thaw's counsel in the beginning of the
case, he would. There is a strong be-
lief that DR.. Hamilton found Thaw suf-
fering fro mai incurable form of in
sanity.
In this connection Jerome reiterated
In open court today that he earnestly
desired to know whether Thaw is in

that fact he will admit it.
