"undesirables" by the commissioner are here in violation of the immigra- tion laws, and as they were imported principally from British Columbia with knowledge, if not through con- nivance with men recognized as agents of the commission, for the purpose of compelling Americans and citizens of Alaska to accept reduced wages if give unemployment on "their own railroad" Mears has been ad- vised not to start something he might find embarrassing to finish. It is to the credit of these aliens and so-called "bohunks" that the great majority of them are among the most earnest yet conservative advocates of better work ing conditions and wages here. Those having the greatest representation here are Russians. Austrians and Greeks.
 Included in the list of officers of the new organization are several sour dougs, we'll known in almost every mining camp in the territory; they are Jack Sutherland, president: Jack Blase. vice-president; J. J. Ross, sec retary; F. B. Allenbach, treasurer; Pete Malamed, conductor; Tony Ka- loff and C. Miller sergeant at arms: Messrs. Qulokovoski, Baker and Han son. trustees; E. R. Wilson, A. D. War ner, Ed. Christensen, P. Gilloyich, Mike Sherry, Barnhill and Graham, executive committee.
 Construction of labor temple, with ground dimensions 50 by 120 feet, is in progress on lot on Seventh ave nue. donated to the organization by E.. ]. Warner, vice-presdent of the Cham Der of Commerce. and c. NJ. Campbell, another prominent business man. The upper floor will be occupied by i2ing rooms and a commodiOus dining loom and kitchen; two offices will occupy the front of the lower floor, md back of these will be large assembly hall to be used for public meetings and by the union, Pioneers, Arctic Bro therhood Socialists and other organi- cations. An unusual scene was pre- sented today, when four large bob sheds loaded with building logs and pulled by teams of 22 to 90 men moved continuously between the timber and building site. The committee super vising construction are: Jack Suther- land. John Gillespie, Guy Cordiner, Pete Mallamed Burlington, Alex To- golf, H. Kingsbury, Pete Amet and Geo. Frazier.
 Following a conference week ago between Commissioner Mears and a committee representing the Inon, the former forwarded to Washington the schedule of wages asked by the men, together with his version of the dis agreement; also his certain recon mendations" which have not been made public here. Resolutions by the Chamber of Commerce. endorsing the action of the men, as well as resolu- tions by the union. reciting their grievances, and petitioning for relief, have also been wired to the national capital. Mir. Mears anticipates a guarantee wage scale will be forward ed to him for consideration of the men.

 This system kept three gangs nov ing-one on the job, one going and the third coming from Anchorage. The following conversation over the phone, with one of the foremen at the Peters creek sending end, was overheard by one of my informants.

 The British forces held the line between GommecoTrt and Ancre, while the French attacked both sides of ne River Sonme and south ward towards the village of Rove. Corlu, Monta-Baute, Mametz, Fri count and other fortified places have been taken by the British and the French. The village of Fri court is considered by the British tobe a very stragetic position.
 In the charges the British in fantrY advanced singing the famous '"Tipperary," and the French the "Marseillaise." The German of- ficdaI report has come cut and they admit the necessity of retiring be- fore the British advance. British aeroplanes assisted in the tdVance, but were attacked by a squadron of twenty German fokkers and driven back, but not until they had destroyed two of the German air guns.

Artful Old Man.

A gentleman, while walking with two
ladies' through one of the principal
streets of London, saw beggar ap-
proach. One of the ladies, who had
evidently seen the mendicant before,
said:
"This is the most singular man
ever heard of. No matter how much
money you give him, he always re-
turns the change, and never keeps
more than a penny"
"Why, what fool he must be-" re-
marked the gentleman. But I'll try
him, and put him to little trouble. -
So saying, the gentleman pulled
from his pocket sovereign, $3.50
which he dropped into the beggar's
hat. The mendicant turned the coin
over two or three times, examined
it closely, and then, raising his eyes
to the countenance of the benevolent
man, said:
"Well, I'll not adhere to my usual
custom IN this case. I'll keep 1t all for
luck; but don't do it again.
The donor opened his eyes in aston
ishment and passed on, while the la,
dies smiled with delight.

Her beauty was of a striking type.

she secured a paying position in the

And then Helena met the romance

false. More than that; in a moment
of temptation he appropriated money
that did not belong to him. Repent

Helena's life was ended.
