FORM HUMANE
 SOCIETY HERE

The Alaskan is in receipt Of a Ict- ter from Cyril J. sobolen president Of the sitka Branch of the Chndren's National Humane Society in which he urges that branch societies be formed in other Alaskan towns.
 The letter was shown to several school children in skagway and it is highly probable ha, a branch society will be formed here in the near fu- mre.
 In sidla the society has had a most beuifcent influence in prevent ing cruelty to animals. During Oc- tober, however, several boys who were members of the society. treated a small kitten cruelty. The matter was reported and the cuIprits were tried by the society and punished by not being allowed to wear their badg- cs for three months.

Beavers Flood a Poato silo.

BARLEY Schoonmaker, of Three
Bridges, discovered that a coloEg of
beavers had damned Lauber's Run,
above his farm, and diverted the wat
er so that it flooded a part of his corn
field. The farmer had no redress
when the animals blocked the stream
and flooded his cornfield, because the
State game laws prevent the killing
of beavers. The beavers evidently
considered a large potato silo which
Schoonmaker has on the southeast
section of his land as an admirable
place for a sub-coIony. The silo was
a ready-built dam, but there was no
water near it.. This difficulty was
overcome by the beavers, who dug a
canal from the flooded meadows across
sixty feet of higher land and flooded
the silo. Schoonmaker was amazed
at the industry of the beavers. He
also vas pretty much disturbed over
the flooding of the silo. Under four
feet Of water are about forty bushels
of potatoes, which he had intended to
hold for the late rise In prices. He
thinks he can get the State to pay for
the loss of the potatoes, IL not for the
damage done his land by the beavers
irrigation canal. About ten of the
beavers have taken up their abode in
the new dam, which probably will
yield them desirable winter quarters.

New York City.-The unfortunate
and antimely death of Cadet Byrne
has focused American attention on
football as 1t is played to-day and
given to it the worst black eye 1t has
had in many a year. For coupled
with the West Point fatality is the
case of Midshipman Earl Wilson, the
Navy quarterback, who was probably
mortally injured in a flying tackle in
the Annapolis-Villanova game.
The unfortunate accidents have ex-
cited interest all over the country,
and the question that is being asked:
Are such accidents avoidable?" is
being answered in the negative.
As a result of the death of Cadet
Byrne, of West Point, and the dan
gerous injury to M~idshipman Wilson,
of Annapolis, in games of football, it
is likely some action will be taken
by the college football conference as
ISOLATION to eliminate certain rough
features of the present game.
-Four years ago, after the death of
Har old Moore, of Union College, who
was injured in a game with New
York University on Ohio Field, a con-
ference of universities and colleges
was called by Chancellor MacCracken,
of New York University, which prac-
tically revolutionized the game. Mass
plays have given way for the greater
part to more scientific methods and
greater stress has been laid, experts
say, on speed than on weight. 1t
was thought the new rules of open
play, the forward pass and the out
side kick would minimize the danger
of the sport.
1t has been said that the greatest
of injuries come from the hruisine
mass plays, but It is pointed out in q
very significant manner by those op.
posed to even the so-called new game
that Villanova has a lighter team
than the Navy, and that the weight
question, therefore, can hardly entel
into the present discussion.
The opinion was general among al
the ~ex-college players seen that the
trouble lies not in the differences O
weight, not in the differences in meth
ods-of training-for 1t is pointed GU
that the best conditioned undergrad
uate bodies In the world are the corp,
of cadets at West Point, and tn,
brigade of midshipmen at Annapolis
not in inferior football knowledge
not in any of the usually accepted
theories, but In the rules themselves
There never was a harder player
a more difficult man to stop, or on,
who knew more of the ms and out
of a playing under the old rule
than Robert p. Herman. of Harvard
In discussing the new game. as op
posed to the old, with particular re
gard rs to whether the rules had beef
really revised, he said:
"They say they've opened tn,

chance on that play; then, when
