Judge Fred M. Brown has ap-
pointed Mrs Corinne Call as United
States commissioner for the Bristol
bay precinct with headquarters at
Dillingham; This is the first
appointment of woman commits
sioner in Alaska and the appoint
ment is expected to be followed by
many as women judges have made
good in the states and should make
capable officials in Alaska, and more
especially to the westward, where
the native women and children are
in need of protection from the vice
loving fishermen, who induce them
to drink and start them upon lives
of vice and shame. Mrs. Call has
for many years taught school at
-Chogiung and has done very efficient
work in educating the natives. Be
sides teaching the young she has
worked many hours to entertain the
women and men and to provide for
them clean pleasures.-Valdez Pros

u. S. Marshal Brenneman as re-
ceived the information that John
Duholm, a prospector, living in a
small cabin on Bear creek, three
miles from Moose pass and IL miles
from Mile 20 OF the Alaska North
ern railroad, had committed suicide
by shooting himself through the
heart with a 1910 rifle. Duholm
first killed his faithful dog that had
lived with him for many years and
which the prospector was deter
mined should not be left to starve.
He killed the dog with a %, shoot

been talking of suicide for many
weeks, but the prospectors with
whom he had talked did not believe
he meant it and so they did not in

CHICAGO, April 6.-Thousands
of unemployed men have been put
to work on Chicago's mammoth
new Union Station, 65,0oo,ooo
proiect, which will be completed
December IS, 1918, according 10
plans. The new plant will mouse
the Pennsylvania Lines, the Chlcago
milwaukee & St. Paul, The Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy, and the chi
cago & Alton. 1t does not mean
consolidation of any of the railroad
terminals, simply the replacing the
structure at Adams and Canal
streets with great plant.
The erection of the station en-
braces several difficult engineering
feats, chief among which is the
STRENGTHENING of the Chicago river
for several blocks. The new sta
ton is going up to the south OF the
present one, occupying the blocks
between Adams and Jackson streets
and Clinton and Canal streets, a
space two blocks east and west and
one block north and south. Besides
three freight terminals the plans
call for 26 tracks in the passenger
terminal, 20 more than the present
station has. The Northwestern Sta
ton here, regarded as one OF the
most modern in the world, has only
16. the Pennsylvania in New YORK
has only II. The Union Station in
Washington has 33, only Is OF
which, however. are in use.
The main building will be ten
stories and have three sub-base-
ments. 1t will be an imposing look
ing structure with great massive
columns and will cost s6,000,oOo
exclusive of land, sheds, power
plant. and interlocking costs.

BIRD MASQUE AT COUNTY

One of the most beautiful at fractions at the Pulaski County Fair will be given on the after noon of Children's Day, October 22, when Sanctuary" bird masque production will be pre- sented in the open air under the direction of Mrs. J. w. Bensberg and a committee of the Drama League. Hundreds of children, all dressed as birds, will take part in it, and a number of pleasing and spectacular dances will be introduced. The masque is an appeal for the protection of bird life, but pretty story is woven around the theme. It was written by Percy MacKaye, and it was first produced near Meridian, N. H., before Presi- dent and Mrs. Woodrow Wilso'a The children are being carefully drilled, and 3 splendid produc- tion is assured.

Biggest Fair in Arkansas
 Opens at Little Rock Monday

States, and here the best will be shown-collies, bulls, pointers, setters, poodles, and all the oth- CT breeds known to dogdom.
 Some of the largest poultry fanciers in the State have ap- piled for space to show their chickens, and the poultry show will be a big feature. The fowls will be judged by an A. P. A. official, and the cash prizes will be paid as soon as the ribbons are placed.
 A feature that has grown as the fair has progressed and that visitors have always shown an interest in is the negro exhibit, More space has been given to this department and the dis play will be elaborate.
 One of the largest amusement companies on the road, carrying a special train of carnival at fractions, has been engaged for the week, and will give touch of color to offset the more seri- ous side of the big annual enter tainment at Forest Park.
 No exhibitor pays a cent to visit the fair. Those who come to see and learn will be taxed 25 cents, a sum that will be well invested.

Although it does not pretend to be anything more than a County Fair or local agricultural and live stock display, the Little Rock Fair, to be held October 1922, is the largest exposition of it's kind ever held in the State.
 There are forty acres of ex- hibits and a main agricultural building 64x250 feet. Twenty of the best communities in Pulaski county will have displays, and there will be hundreds of exhib- it's of farm products in compe- tition for the $3,000 in prizes.
 The live stock display will be one of the best ever seen in Ar kansas, and made up entirely of home-raised cattle, horses, pigs and sheep.
 A new one-fourth mile race track has been constructed, and some of the best horsefesh in the State will run, trot and pace for the $500 in purses.
 A dog show such as has never been seen before in Arkansas will be a feature of interest to the many breeders of canines. 1t is said that Little Rock has as many good dogs as any other city of it's size in the United

INHABITANTS OF FOURTH WARD NO MORE WILL HEAR THE TINGLE OF COWBELLS OR FEEL THE GNAW OF THE TICK.
STEP TO DOUBLE TRACKING
Horses, Cows, Sheep and Goats Prohibited From Running at Large Anywhere in City Pound to Be Moved Further West.

Declaring that the Fourth ward, which includes the terri tory about Forest Park, had be- come a public pasture for cattle, horses and goats belonging to persons in other parts of the city, where the running at large of stock is not in favor, Alder man Murphy Monday night in- troduced in the Pulaski Heights City Council an ordinance ex- tending the stock law to include all territory within the incorpo- rated limits of the city.
 The ordinance was passed by the following vote:
 For the Ordinance: Reaves, Webster, Turner, Murphy and Acting Mayor Edwards.
 Against the Ordinance: Lock- lar and Trickett.
 Absent: Hicks and Keeton.
 Formerly the stock limits ex- tended west only to Kenyon av- enue.
 It was suggested that the stock pound should be moved from it's present location back of the Baptist church to a point further west, preferably near the second Hillcrest gate. This matter was referred to special committee composed of Alder men Murphy, Reaves and Tur- ner, who will find a suitable lo- cation and arrange for it's use.

FOURTH WARD IS ADDED
Time Would Be Opportune for Improvement of Street Rail- way Facilities on the Pulaski Heights Line-County May Help in Improvement.

Something must be done with Prospect avenue. The rough condition of the roadway is a hindrance to the heavy travel over this street, and the dust is a nuisance to all who live near or travel over the thoroughfare. If it is to be paved, many believe that it should be paved with concrete. If it is paved before the concrete is laid, the street railway company would find 1t an advantage to put in double tracks to Forest Park, and thus avoid the heavy expense of do- ing this later, and that would solve the biggest improvement problem the city of Pulaski Heights has to confront
 With a concrete roadway there would be no dust, the full width of the street could be used and there would be smooth, Jean vsadway through the en- oIre city, affording one of the prettiest drives in the country, and with a double track the street railway company would be in a position to render the better service that this rapidly growing territory deserves.
 Most of the complaints about street car service on the Pulaski Heights division are due to the handicap of single track. A thoroughly satisfactory service will not be possible until the line is double tracked. The time for this improvement has come, and it is the belief of the city's leading men that all of this may be brought about by carrying out the movement for the re- paving of Prospect avenue.
 This is the county's job as much as the city's, for Prospect avenue is one of the principal bikes leading out of Little Rock, and the travel over it of country vehicles is probably as great as that over any other roadway. The county can afford to be lib- eral in it's help toward this inn provement. The street railway always does it's share when there is a willingness of the public to improve a street. By the city of Pulaski Heights CO., operating with the county and the street railway company, Prospect avenue ought to be paved without the necessity of forming an improvement dis trict or putting the cost all on the abutting property.
 Then we can have good road, less dust, and the right kind of car service.

Fultz Says Fraternity Will See Legal
Rights Are Respected.

NEW YORK, December 17.-David
Fultz, president of the Base Ball Play
ers' Fraternity. issued a statement yes
terday afternoon relative to the peace
negotiations between the Federal
League and the American and National
leagues.
Should the peace negotiations prove
successful" said Fultz, there will. OF
course, be a provision restoring all
players who have gone to the Fed
erals to their original status in or
ganized ball. Any other settlement
would be grossly illogical and unfair
to the players.
Provision doubtless also will be
made for carrying out the iong-term
contracts signed by players with both
organized ball and the Federal
League No declaration of peace by
the magnates can in any way affect
the validity of these contracts All ad-
justmentS should be made subject to
these obligations; otherwise magnates
who buy interests in clubs may find
later that they have assumed obliga-
tions of which they were unaware at
the time of the transaction.
There are also players, both in Or
ganized ball and the Federal League,
who have not yet received their entire
salaries for 1915. These obligations, too.
should be taken into consideration in
any adjustment.
should peace be declared it would
result in automatically restoring to full
membership in the Base Ball Players
Fraternity all Federal League players
who were members before going to the
Federal League. While the fraternity
is not obligated by it's bylaws to pro-
tect players contracts made when they
were not active members of the or
ganization, yet it will be glad to use
its best endeavors to see that the legal
rights of the Federal Leaguers, as well
as those of the organized ball players
are respected"
