SUNDAY NIGHTS
 UNION EXERCISES

In what was perhaps one of the most unique meetings ever held in Ketchikan the three churches, Catholic, Methodist and Episcopal. united last night for a ss..y.sS in honor of Christ. mas. The hall was crowded to the limit with proDably the largest gathering ever assemb.. led therein, unless perhaps for Feurth of July, A very ap.. prOpriate program was rend.. cred consisting of selections by Sumpf's orchestra and solos both vocal and instru.. mental. Each of the ministers also gave short talks upon some phase of the Christ life. Taking it all together the pro-. gram went off in a most cred. ible and enjoyable manner. And 1t has been repeatedly been brought to the notice of the writer that it would be an excellent thing to perpetuate the effort by getting together in a similar manner at least once every year. The great crowd went away feeling live Her interest in the story of the Man of Galllee and that inter. est can not help but bear fruit in the lives of many.

PROPERTY OWNERS PAY
 NO TAXES IN C0RD0vA

Cordova occupies an unique
 position among the important towns of Alaska, because of ;oi | fact that since incorporation a municipal tax has only been levied one year. during 1910,
 says the Cordova Alaskan. The monies received from liquor and other licenses have been sufficient to maintain our schools and other municipal necessities. When the present council was elected a year ago their platform was economy And while there was a general desire that a tax be avoided this year if possible, there was a feeling that it could scarcely be avoided. And particularly by reason of the fact that the number of liquor licenses had decreased from twenty five to six. But at the meeting of the council last night action was taken which in effect declares that there will be no tax lev. jed under the present admins. tration.. By exercising the strictest possible economy the present council will carry on the affairs of the twon until next March with the limied funds available and without in curing any indebtedness. And it is a matter of pride, not only to the present officials of the town, but to all the people that Cordova has never yet been burdened with any indebted. ness.

Athens, Dec. 23-According to wireless reports from the Greek fleet, the Turkish forces on the island of Mitylene have surrendered the entire island and turned over their arms and stores to force sent as.. hOre from the fleet. After es.. tablishing the garrison there, the fleet left for the island of Tenedos where a number of Turkish torpedo boats are re-. ported to be shelling the Greek headquarters there. This is- land, made famous as the is. land behind which the Greet fleet hid while waiting for the foolish Trojans to take the Wooden Horse into Troy, has been occupied as land head. quarters for the Greet fleet i'll their operations against the Dardenells. The latter part of last week the fleet withdrew to attack Mitylene, and during their absence the Turkish tor. pedo boats appeared and at.. tackled as above. The fleet is now on the way to drive these little vessels off or sink them in ease they are found within range.

Valdez Dec. 26-Judge Lyons this morning overruled the mo. ton of Barnette's lawyers for a new trial on the mlsdemean.. or charge he was found guilty on by the jury, and sentence on him will be imposed Sat. urday. The charge was making and issuing a false statement of the true condition of the bank. The jury was out five hours and found Capt. Barn. cite guilty. The case was bit. terly contested from the start and deep interest was evident by the crowds that always at.. tended the court sessions.
 In the score of indictments that were returned by the grand jury against the various officials and others who had dealings with the defunct bank, eight were against Capt. Barn. cite. The first indictment tried charged Capt. Barnette and B. R. Dusenberry with intent to deceive and defraud in publish. ing a certain bank statement. A jury was waived and the case was tried by Judge Lyons. He decided that the defendants were not guilty. The second case was taken up on the 1Ith The indicted men were Capt. Barnette and Lew Wing. They were charged with perjury in swearing to a false bank state. ment.... The evidence soon brought out the fact that neith CT men made affidavit to the statement, so in a short time the court directed the jury to return a verdict of not guilty, which they did without leaving the box. Subsequently, the court dismissed all the other indictments against Barnette
 with the exception of the one he was found guilty of.
