Goes Over Falls;
Is Uninjured
Donald Farley Carried Over Red
wood Falls in Rowboat; Boat
Wrecked and Boy Escapes

That Redwood Falls residents
bear a charmed life and are "ac-
cident-proof" was again proved
Sunday at Redwood Falls. C. J.
Farlee, in company with three
others, one Of whom was his
young son, Donald, were in a
boat just above the bridge and
were swept under by the cur
rent which is very strong at
present. The other three occu-
pants of the boat got out be-
fore it went completely under
the bridge and reached safety
on the rocks. Donald stuck tight
to the boat which went over the
falls, and was washed onto the
bank by the force Of the cur
rent in the whirlpool below. The
boy was entirely uninjured save
for slight wound on one knee
and a bad scare. The boat was
splintered to bits by it's force
full impact with the rocks.
A good many years ago a
young girl was carried over the
falls in much the same manner
and escaped just as miraculous,
ly. However, shooting the Red
wood Falls has never become 9
popular pastime and the narrow
escape of Sunday is not likely
to add to the popularity of it.

CHIEF W|SEMAN TAXES IN
 NOISY BUNCH

When the baseball game at Exposition Park between the Fairbanks and Tolo- vana teams came to an end, several of the players and thelr friends enthusias- tic over winning the game, after dining got into an auto and commenced to speed around town, yelling at he top of their voices as they went at he top of their voices. Down Front street, over the bridge to Garden Island and back, up sides streets and down back streets, they, apparently, insisted that every body who was not dead should hear them yell. After 1t seemed that they were becoming hoarse they would stop at some thirst emporium. refresh them selves, throw on the current, and as the car bowled merrily along zig-zaging as it went, they yelled and yelled, until several sleepers, awakened by the fear tul din looked out of their doors won dering what 1t all ment only to see the rear of car disappearing around cor ner.
 The night patrolman started after them but they were too speedy for him.
 Soon, however, Chief Wiseman ap- peared upen the scene In short time he had his hands on the collars of two of the lustylunged youths, and sub dued at last. he led them off to the city calaboose.
 Thursday at ? P. NJ. they were hailed before City Magistrate Buckley and charged with violating the speed ord,n- ance, After six of them plead guilty they were each sentenced to pay fine of ten dollars or in default go to jail.
 One of the malefactors did not ap- pear.

CONSTRUCTIVE LEGISLATION

The Legislation enacted by the Sec ond Legislature was, IN a measure con- structive. It remedied, to a great extent the faults and flaws in the work of the First Legislature The old saving lex perience teaches best" was amply de- monstrated by those members of the Second Legislature who served III the First. A green hand at the business of making laws makes about as poor showing as against the experienced law maker as the green hand operator of machine does as agalnst the experienced operator, and many of the members of the First Legislature have been the butt of many a joke cracked at them bv law yers of mediocre ability afflicted with e. gotism for the profession, "who would smile ill a superior way whenever the subject would be up for discussion.
 The Second Legislature was compos- ed of miners and small business men with enough lawyers thrown ill to ad- wise as to the legality or illegal1tv of q proposed law, and this composition seems to have been successful ill over ,1I II. A1. was much needed and demanded by the people of the Territory.
 The laws enacted, and t Il e amend ments to laws heretofore Ill force. are too numerous to mention here at this time. but on the whole it can be safely asserted that with majority of such legislators as the Second law-making body of the territory was composed of making laws for it, Alaska will bloom and blossom, thrive and prosper as no State in the Union can whose legislature is composed of men with reactiorarv tendencies
 Among the bills passed, however, one or two may he mentioned: The legls- lature has provided that the referendum be exercised by the electors at the time of he general election in 1916, as fol- lows:
 Senate Bill B, Providing for an ex- presson by the Electors if they are ill favor or not of general elght-hour day for all wage and salary earners in the Territory of Alaska
 House Bill 5, Whether or not intox- icating liquors shall be manufactured or sold in the Territory of Alaska after the first day of January 1918.
 House Bill l04. To ratify this bill pro- viding for the election of mayor and common council, q treasurer, city at- torney and city clerk etc.
 Besides those mentioned above an election law was passed providing that official ballots shall be used instead of the private ballots used heretofore.
