CHURCH ALLOWS .o LEPERS TO
 MARRY

PETROGRAD. July 10.-The Rus sian Medical Council has informed the Holy Synod that there is no objection to lepers marrying lepers, although the union of a leper to a healthy mate should not be allowed. This is the councils answer to the question raised by the Russian church.
 The influence of the parents on their offspring in the spread of the dis ease is considered weak, since the percentage of infant leprosy is very small, only about per cent. Fertility also decreases among lepers as the disease advances. Leprosy is not be- lieyed to be a hereditary disease, but one due to contact. For a leprous mother to part with her infant is painful, although necessary if the child is to be saved. But marriage brings at least some happiness into the tragedy of characterization lives.

ORGANIZATION OF
 KENNECOTT MINE

NEW YORK, July 1.-The newly organized Kennecott Copper Corpora. tion owning the famous Bonanza cop per property in Alaska, for some time past has been earning at the rate of more than $5O0,OQU per month. or S6,OOO,O0O per year. It is now pro ducing at the rate of 60,0OO, ,O0O pounds of copper a year.
 On the earnings, which have been at the rate of nearly s5.5O per share on 1,l2O,OOO shares, including the 400,000.00O shares in the treasury for conversion of $1OO0O,OOO of bonds re- gently sold it Is fair to assume that the initial dividend payment on the stock is not far off.
 The Kennecott Copper Corporation has been organized with the election of the following officers and directors: President, Stephen Birch; vice-presi- dent, w. P. Hamilton; secretary, c. T. Ulrich, and treasurer, F. s. Pegram.
 The directors: Stephen Birch. w. P. Hamilton and Elliott Bacon, of J. P. Morgan & Company; John N. Steele, Silas W, Eccles, Samuel Clarke, Simon Guggenheim and Sew ard Prosser, president of the Bank. CTS Trust Company.

 Races for young as we'll as grown up kids occupied several hours. The star of the whole field meet was Mart Latin who, in the fat mans race covered the hundred in the fast time of 16h seconds and copped the prize from such famous runners as Frank Iyerson and Jim Millsap.
 The tug of war furnished consider able excitement. Teams from Ken necott, the Piledriver Crew, Glacier Camp and Mccarthy contested. The Mccarthy team won the finals but & protest is being considered against them for the reason that it is alleged that they had an unfair advantage inasmuch as most of the members of the team were packers whose experi- ence in dragging horses out of the mud on hte Mccarthy trail to the Nizina, had made them abnormally muscular in the arms.

 Harbor Improvement

In connection with the permanent coal dock terminal, the Commission is now engaged in driving piling of the mouth of Ship Creek to form staging for drilling machines to determine the character of the material which will have to be dredged for the i'm provements contemplated. This is a preliminary investigation to deter. mine the character of the material which will have to be dredged for the Improvements contemplated. This is preliminary investigation to deter. mine the cost and feasibility of con structing 30-foot deep basin which will be 100 feet wide at the bottom and 300 feet wide at the"t top and will run 1000 feet up the creek from the present dock to the office building and will also extend about 2,50O feet from the present dock out to deep water. When these plans are carried out Anchorage will have facilities which will enable government and other to ship large amounts of coal and other products at a minimum coast.
 The railroad grading will be com. pleted from Anchorage to Matanuska by November 1st and track laid by January 1st. The steel and proper equipment to finish the line for that distance will arrive here by October 1st. .u..
 At present there are 1914 men em- ployed out of Anchorage on railroad construction, including men clearing townsite, but excluding locating engi- neers and their parties. The number will be increased to 1,5OO as soon as additional material and equipment come, which will be within 30 days.

MUCH ACTIVITY MAMIE FEST AT [
 ANCHORAGE

| The following item taken from the Cook Inlet Pioneer, tells of the latest plans for work at the railroad city to the westward.
 The following Improvements are in contemplation by the Engineering Commission at Anchorage:
 The present track from the dock to the office building is only temporary and will be replaced by a straight track as soon as the other improve. ments contemplated have reached the l, built from the main track to a point little east of the Crist House at which place an engine house will be built
 Machine and repair shops will be installed in the same vicinity as soon as the equipment arrives from Panama which will be within 60 days. A ma | teriol storehouse will also be built near the same point.
 Freight yards with eight side tracks will be built north of the present main | line, and a "Y" constructed north of the middle of the railroad yards. The corral and stable will be moved from their present location to a point little east of where the Pioneer Lodging House now is. A frame com missary building will be erected near the site of the present blacksmith shop, which commissary will be for use of the local camp, while the big warehouse on the dock will be tho wholesale distributing commissary for all commissaries at the different camps.
 About 5000 tons of steel rails will arrive during the summer, for the storage of which additional tracks and sidings will be installed, as the rails will be stored on the sidings, sorted in different lengths, ready for ship ment along the line. A patent rail bender will arrive to curve the rails as required. A great amount of room is required for the storing of this class of material so as to handle same quickly and at the least possible cost
 The present dock is only temporary and will be replaced by the perma. nent coal dock. It will be recalle that at the time the railroad route was announced by Secretary Lane, the statement was made that Ship Creek would be made the shipping point for Matanuska coal. The plans for creat- ing the terminal for the handling of coal are under way, but of course will

ALASKA MAY HAVE
 POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS

Postal savings banks are coming to Alaska, it is indicated.
 It will be remembered that the Tan. ner memorial to Congress passed at the last legislative session, urged that the banks be established Today a letter was received from the Third Assistant Postmaster General, under date of Junt 23. It was addressed to Governor Strong, and reads as fol lows:
 Consideration is now being given to the extension of the facilities of the Postal Savings System to the prlnci- pal post offices in the Territory of Alaska and in connection with the proposed action it is important that arrangements be made for the proper disposition of all postal savings de- posits.
 '"The Federal Postal Savings Act provides that the funds received at each post office shall be preferably deposited in local banks which may qualify to receive them, it being stipulated that only banks organize under national or state laws and sub ject to national or state supervision and examination shall be eligible tc qualify as such Repositories. There is a prohibition in the Federal Re serve Act against the deposit of postal savings funds in banks not belonging to the Federal Reserve System but this is not applicable to Alaska and in view of the recent enactment by your legislature of a comprehensive banking law providing for supervision and examination of territorial banks, apparently. in addition to the two national banks in Alaska, all solvent incorporated banks organized under the laws of Alaska will be eligible to qualify as Repositories for postal say ings funds If they desire to do so. Private banks are held not to be or ganized within the meaning of the law and are therefore ineligible to re-

MURDER SUSPECTED

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Hawaii, April 3.-What has
become of Simon Kanui? That is the
question that is worrying Sheriff Pua
and the whole Of the police force on
the Roma side of the island. Simon
kanui is missing from his hut on the
Hooper ranch at Honokua, six miles
mauk2 from Hookena and foul play is
suspected
The last person to see Kanui alive
was a Porto Rican, Etario, and he has
been arrested for investigation. The
suspected man has only been married
a couple of weeks. Every effort is
being made to trace up kanui and to
discover where his body is-for every
indication points to his being dead.
The story of the disappearance of
Kanui is a stronge one, and the only
person who seems to know anything
about the affair is the Porto Rican

However. the "interests" figure

In the finale the senator is captured
