One of the pleasing features of Manager Thompson's House is his splendid orchestra. It is a pleasure to hear Mrs. Peg Wood Frodsham play night after night her seemingly never ending repertoire, assisted by young George SpaFling at the piano who is a much better artist than is usually found in the theatres and the clarinet player, MT. Ruark and Mr. Frodsham who is the thunder and lightning, the rain and the sum- shine for Geraldine Farrar in Car men as we'll as for Fatty and Mabel. This small but efficient orchestra has given many pleasant and joyous hours to the patrons of the Dream and Juneauites have begun to listen. The week of Carmen the audience felt no lack as the overture was beautifully handled by this quartette of artistic orchestrians. MT. Thomp- son is to be congratulated for keep ing LID a steady consistent program of the best shows in the entire world and deserves the continued patronage of our citizens because he gave the best from the start and Juneau has responded.

higher, there is still no development, and even no talk of development, of the Southeastern Alaska pulp woods.
 The pulp used for making the cheaper grades of paper, particular ly print paper for newspapers comes from Canadian spruce forests. South eastern Alaska forests" contain hun dreds of acres of spruce wood, ad- mittedly good for nothing else than the making of wood paper pulp, and yet the manufacturers in the United States buy their wood paper pulp i'll Canada. The difficulty of getting pulp from that source now that the war is on, is the reason given for the high price of paper
 Two or three years ago, before the war, Eastern paper mill owners through their known and unknown agents were dickering with Super visor Weigle for large areas of pulp lands, and receiving every encour- agement from that official Now nothing is heard by him on the sub- ject.
 Among men of business whose in- terests are quasi public we must mention the past years record of the Dream Theatre.

PROSPERITY PINCHING

While there has never been a pan- ic ill the United States that affect ed conditions in the Gastineau Chan nel country, the United States pros perlty which has at least reached the Pacific Coast, is now pinching, to a great or less degree, the people of this country. The cost of living here has raised uncomfortably.
 Seattle has seven one-million dol lar ships to build now, and has set the residents of that city wild with joy in anticipation of the prosperity which was to follow a few years ago. Some of the slack has been taken out of the labor market, and the wages of workmen in some trades has risen.
 lnasmuch as the prevailing price Of labor here is one of the funda mental conditions that make the min- ing and milling of the low grade ore possibility, it is impossible to raise wages for the miners here. however much the company officials may desire it. But it is probably that notwithstanding the raise in the prices of food, we think that long headed and calculating working men will generally agree that conditions for labor are still better here than they ara "ha1nw,

Now Supervisor Georgeson is able to announce that a variety of alfal- ia, that forage plant log supposed to grow only in hot countries, has been found which will thrive in Alaska. A few things like that, and Profes- sor Geogeson may some time find monuments built to him in the agri- cultural communities of the States which are to be carved out of this Territory
 There grows in Peru variety of corn which is raised high in the mountains of that country, where the seasons are as short as they are here We hope that some day MT. Georgeson will turn his attention to that corn, and find that it may grow here. In these short seasoned attitudes of Peru there is a veriety of tomato, which it is quite possible may be grown in this climate and in the Interior of Alaska. They have grown roasting ears at Klukwan for the last two seasons.
 Incidentally it is encouraging to note that Alaska rutabagas and Al aska turnips are now quoted in the Seattle market reports, and that they bring price higher than any other variety That is a great deal more than enough to pay the freight.

Growing pigs arc often attacked by
intestinal worms. These parasites arc
most likely to infest poorly fed, neg

yards, fed from filthy troughs and
swill barrels. drinking stale or con-
taminated water, and roofing and
sleeping in manure piles and stack

One night, 200 years ago, Judge
Cambo of Malta sat by his bedroom
window gazing out upon the sleeping
town. which was bathed In brilliant
moonlight. Had Judge Cambo not been
sitting by his window that night, his
name would never have been known
outside the island of Malta, which is
about eight miles wide and seventeen
long; but he couldn't sleep well that
night, for one reason or another. so he
took his seat by the window. and
eventually became known all over the
world, or wherever lawyers congre-
gate. Thus we see upon what a small
peg destiny sometimes hangs.
There is no doubt that Judge Cambo
was a man of integrity and ability.
Some even hold that he had con-
science. In his youth he was consid-
cred sentimental and went so far, upon
occasion, as to write poetry. But he
took up the study of the law quite
early, and the law became an infatua-
tion with him. AS the years went on
he became saturated with 1t, so that it
took full possession of his soul and
mind. He judged everything In the
earth and the waters under the earth

So Judge Cambo sat at his window,
in the soft Mediterranean night, and as
he looked into the street beneath him
he saw one man stab another. The

his life. reeled and fell. At this mo-
ment the murderer's cap fell off. and

threw away the sheath of his knife
and ran. The learned jurist sat at his
window, gazing calmly at the dead
man. An ordinary man might have
raised an alarm. but the Judge did
nothing. 1t is possible that he was rak-
ing through his mind for law that
would fit the case.
The night wore on and morning was
approaching, and the Judge remained
at his window. Then baker came
into the street. carrying his loaves for
distribution. Presently the baker be-
held the corpse, and stood looking at

of slumber.
In due season the baker was brought
up for trial in the criminal court, and

Decorations for Women.

Foreign countries are most prodigai
Of feminine decorations. There are In
all some 20 foreign orders. and 1t ia
said that Spain was the first country

can be accorded to women. In no

In several countries certain female

plunging his knife into the victim'i
body, he happened to see the judge at
the window, and the Judge was looking
straight at him
The grand master of the knights
now called upon the Judge for an ex
PLANTATION and Cambo quietly admitted
that the mans story was strictly true
But he argued that he had only done
his duty; that 1t was quite proper to
send man to an ignominious death
rather than violate the sacred law as
he understood 1t. The Judge was sen.
fenced to the forfeiture of his Office
and to public degradation, and was or.
dered to turn over his worldly assets
to the family of his victim. He lived

much as he formerly was admired and

acted conscfentiously, and few have
expressed their belief that he acted
properly. Such Is the reverence for
law.
The baker came up for trial, \
wretched and terrified man. The po-
lice had strong case against him. He
was arrested Just as he was leaving
the corpse. and he had the sheath of
dagger or stiletto in his pocket. But
as the case wore on 1t became ap-
parent that the evidence wasn't con-
elusive enough. and there was prob
ability that the accused would be ac-
quilted
Then this marvellous Judge Cambo
used every endeavor to make the
baker confess the crime. He threat
ened and entreated, but the accused
persisted in declaring his innocence
So Judge Cambo ordered him to the
torture and he was stretched upon the
rack. For time he stuck to his claim
of innocence, but when the agony be-
came intolerable he confessed to the
crime which he had never committed.
and Judge Cambo looked on, calm and
inscrutable. and wrote down the
racked mans confession us 1t came
from his blood-fiecked lips. Surely
there never was a more Jealous public
official than Judge Cambo!
The judge was now quite satisfied.

HORSE REQUIRES A
VARIETY OF FEEDS
Erroneous Idea to Think That
Animals Need Nothing but Corn
or Oats and Hay.

A horse needs a variety of food the
same as man. Some feeders think that
IL there is plenty of corn or oats and
hay on hand that Is all that Is needed
for workhorses, but such is not the
case. There is great dietetic value in
variety in any ration.
Scores of men have learned from
experience that steady diet of dry
food is not necessarily the best for
farm workhorses in summer, and 1t
Is now the custom of a large num-
ber of farmers to turn their horses
out to pasture every night. as well
as on Sundays, when the weather be-
comes warm and comfortable. And
