JUNEAU FURNISHES
 OFFICIAL

SEATTLE, Aug. IT, The Seattle Times, in an editorial last night, said that Alaska is now furnishing the State of Washington with commis- sioner to the San Francisco Worlds Fair in the person of Mrs. William A.. Holzheimer. The editorial follows:
 "No doubt the wide acquaintance of William A. Holzheimer, lawyer, poll. tician and fraternal man, will read with interest the announcement in the Alaska Daily Empire that this former resident of Seattle has located in Ju- neau. He therefore becomes a citizen of Alaska. Such being the fact. what about the status of Mrs. Commission CT William A. Holzheimer, now on du- ty as one of the hostesses of the State of Washington at the Panama-Pacific exposition9 There was time prior to the adoption of universal suffrage when law books declared that the status of a wife followed that of her husband. As far as the general pub lie is informed this priciple still ob- tains. In this case the family domi- cfe has been shifted from Seattle to Juneau, and by that act the citizen ship of the legally recognized head of the household is no longer in the state of Washington, but in Alaska Intent governs the question of citizenship. and to all intents and purposes Mir. Holzheimer has lost his citizenship and right to vote here, and presently he will qualify for that right in the Territory where he now resides. Mrs. Commissioner Holzheimer presumpt. ively has lost her citizenship and her right to vote in this State We, there fore, have an honorable Fair Commis' sloner-hostess who no longer is a citi zeness of the State.
 Many good things have come to Sc attle from Alaska, but lady fair com missioner and hostess answerable to Alaska for citizenship instead of to Washington is rather unexpected"

Mrs. W. A. Holzheimer whose hus- band was the Democratic nominee for Attorney-General of the State of Wash ington a few years ago and who had been one of the most prominent par ty leaders in Seattle for ten years, was appointed one of the five com missioners of the Washington exhib- it at Che San Francisco fair. The oth- CT commissioners forthwith requested her to become one of the hostesses at San Francisco. Later, about a month ago, Mr. Holzheimer moved to Juneau. and opened law offices in this city, taking rooms in the Goldstein building. MT. Holzheimer is now Q member of the Juneau bar and a resi- dent of Alaska. Hence the comment of the Seattle Times,

ALvARO oBRE0ON.
seen In Mexico that chaos only could
result, Obregon. the farmer. student
and inventor. laid down his tools and
tossed his lot with the constitutionalist
cause-Carranza and villa.
He went into the Yaqui country to
learn the rudiments of guerrilla war
fare from the Indians. He was vel
coined by the tribes and soon found
himself at the head of 400 good fight
ing men-Colonel Obregon.
He presented his force to Carranza
and Villa. From his men he learned
Indian fighting and from books and
his frequent Tits with the federal gen
eral. Ojeda. a highly educated soldier.
he learned modern warfare.
Then, dissatisfied with his motley
band. he set out TO organize a real army
and did 1t. Obregon got together $4,000
e He organized them into compa-
MES. battalions. regiments and bri-
gades and balanced their equipment
His command was the best In Mexico,
and as head Of the army Of the west
his reputation grew.
For a time Obregon was satisfied to
remain second In command Of the
forces against Huerta. yielding first
place to the bandit leader villa. Friend
ship and cooperation between men Of
such opposite types could not long en-
dure. Before Huerta fed into exile
villa had become the enemy Of Obre-
gon. villa then instituted a revolution
against Carranza and Obregon.
At Puebla Obregon defeated Villas
followers and entered Mexico City,
which was evacuated by villa and Ia
pata troops. He has since won notable
victories over Villas forces.
Obregon speaks perfect English and
does not hold the hatred Of the United
States that is common In Mexico. In
fact, he possesses attributes that may
yet make him the savior Of Mexico.

HAMILTON PIONEER FATALLY
HURT IN HIS MINE
Peter Peterson Found Pinned Against
Face of Cut By Sliding Rock

Peter August Peterson. one of the
original pioneers of Hamilton, was
found dead in an open cut on his
property near Hamilton Sunday last,
and is supposed to have been dead
several days before the body was
found. He lived alone in his cabin
near his mines about five miles north
of Hamilton, and at the time of his
death was driving an open cut into
one of his properties. 1t was his
custom to visit Hamilton every Sat
urday evening. and as he failed to
make his appearance Saturday last
as usual, his friends became appre-
hensive as to his safety, and several
of them visited his place, and not
finding him in his cabin they pro-
ceeded to his mines, where they were
shocked to find the remains of the
aged gentleman pinned against the
face of the cut by a slide of rock,
which buried him to the chest, and
from which he was unable to extri
cate himself. 1t issupposed that the
accident happened on either Monday
or Tuesday. as parties who passed his
cabin on these days state that he was
not there then, and theysupposed that
he was at his work. 1t is also appar-
ent that death did not relieve him of
his sufferings for perhaps two OF
three days after the accident hap
pened, as his body was not badly
crushed by the sliding rock, and
therefore his final ending must have
been that Of extreme agony until
overcome by insensibility.
He was a native of Stockholm.
Sweden, and was in his 18th year
when he met with this unfortunate
and deplorable accident. He came
to Hamilton in April. 1869. after
spending two years in New York.
He first engaged in the lumber bust
ness in Hamilton. but later drifted
into mining, which ~avocation he pur-
sued until the time of his DEATH

AFTER ten months of Russian
occupation Lemberg, capital OF

hands. 1t was taken by force
by Austrian troops under command or
General Boehm- Ermolli, while the Rus
sian armies in the vicinity were de-
feated and pursued by the armies Of
Mackensen, Won Linsingen and the
Archduke Frederick. The kaiser him
self was with Mackensen's forces. and
it has been reported that he personally
directed the operations. 1t was also re-
ported that Emperor Francis Joseph
would meet the kaiser In Lemberg for
the purpose of mutual congratulations
and to inaugurate public rejoicings
over the recapture of the city.
Lemberg was occupied by the Rus
slams on Sept. 3, 1914. about n month
after the outbreak Of hostilities, in the
course of the early Russian drive into
Austria. 1t has therefore been In Rus
sian control for ten months.
