CHITINA, May 12.-Judge F. M. Brown was guest of the. town over night, leaving on the train this morning for Cordova. He came over from Valdez to hear the views of the people on the matter of permanent appointment of U. s. commissioner. It is understood that the leading candidate is William O'Connor, of Cordova, and there was compara- lively little opposition to him, other than that worked up by one of the liquor dealers. As this is one of the elements that requires supervision by an officer of the law, it is not supposed that opposition from that source could prove very effective. The judge stated that he would an- nounce his appointment very soon and it is expected that he will make it known at Cordova, before his de- parture for Valdez tonight.

r.. church tomorrow evening, in con-
ton Of the Womans Home Mission

feature of the two days sessions and
doubtless will attract many to the
meeting.
Mrs Bliss's lecture is based on a
thorough study of immigration and a
months experience at Ellis island,
New York. have made her thoroughly
conversant with the subject. The ad-
dress will deal with the arrival of for
eigners on American shores and the
part they play in the upbuilding of
American industries. Because of the
cosmopolitan conditions i'm the copper
country, the lecture will be of particu-
lar local interest and the employment
of foreigners in the copper mining in
dustry will form a part of the dis
course.
Eighty-iive colored slides, furnished
by Underwood & Underwood of New
York, will be employed to illustrate
the lecture.
Miss Bliss is sister-in-law of the
late Governor A. II. Bliss, with whom
she visited upper Michigan on a lee
ture tour number of years ago. She
- an excellent talker and her first
hand knowledge of immigration, II
subject that now is uppermost in the
minds of American people, will tend
to make the address one of the most
interesting that has been heard here
for some time.
