AN INCIDENT IS
 RECALLED BY SHOOTING

JUNEAU.-The shooting of Jack Mcleod in the hand by Jack Camp bell at Lituya Bay, as told in the Douglas notes by Lou Miller in an alleged dispute over mining claim, recalls that the beach diggings of Lituya Bay have figured in more than one live-action drama.
 Jack LondOn's story "The Unex- pected" centered around actual hap penings familiar to most old timers, and which are now part of the court record.
 The character of "Dutchy" in Lon dOn's story is no less a person than Sam Christensen, who is now day guard at the federal jail. Two other principals, Mir. and Mrs. Nelson, are mining in the Atlin country.
 The facts briefly stated are that a man greedy for gold made up his mind to kill the members of the small colony and lay the blame to the natives and take all the gold. He turned loose with his shooting irons and after killing a couple was hit in the face by Mrs. Nelson with hot skillet with which she was frying pancakes and knocked him down. He was then bound and tied. Mir. Nelson was wounded and it fell to Mrs. Nel- son mostly to guard the man. She knew that if he got loose he would finish the job and she scarcely slept night or day. Finally the murderer made a written confession of his crime and Mir. and Mrs. Nelson ap- pointed themselves his judge, jury and executioner and hanged him. l Juneau Dispatch,

THE FAMOUS JONES
 HEARD FROM AGAIN

WASHINGTON.-When Delegate Wickersham was shown a copy of the bill introduced by Chairman Alexand- CT, at the request of Secretary Red field, having for it's object the cur tailment of the powers of the Alaska legislature, he said that he had ex- pected as much, but that he was pro pared to meet the enemies of Alaska. Mir. Wickersham said also that the bill had been framed up by Dr. Lester Jones, by and with the con- sent of the scretary, both of whom are positively opposed to anything that the Alaska legislature may do with the fishing industry of the north, but that they would be shown up in due time.-Ex.

FIRST THREE GAMES
 SHOW CLOSE SCORES
Anchorage Only Thirty-fOur Pins Ahead of Seward in Bowl
 ing Tournament.

The second frame of the tourna- ment will be started tonight at The Northern at s p. m. promptly
 The game was reported last night by Messrs. Mover of Seward and Moses of Anchorage, and the excite ment was intense when the game was close and every frame counted. The scheme of reporting each ball thrown by telephone and keeping a double score showing the standing of each team at every play was pronounced success and Messrs. Margules and RObarts are to be congratulated on their success in furnishing such clean sport to the Sourdoughs.
 Chas Martin was appointed official score keeper for Seward and Mag Higgins acted in like capacity for Anchorage.
 Roy Anderson was announced as referee at Anchorage and Frank J. COtter acted in similar capacity here. There were no fouls and the contest went on with the very best of good feeling on both sides. The same officials will again act tonight.
 The total score of Seward last night was 2.4OS and the total of Anchorage was 2.442. A thousand people watch ed the Anchorage men perform at RObarts hall which is about l4O feet in length and has standing room for spectators all along the side of the alley. Anchorage also had a grand stand. All the people that could crowd into the Northern watched the contest at this end and cheered good plays again and again. Over the phone Operator Mover heard deafen- ing cheers at the Anchorage end and both cities seemed to be worked up to a high pitch. Four hundred dollars had been wagered at Seward last night on the series but much more money is expected to be put up now as Seward has shown it can hold its own. The following is the score:

CALOMEL DYNAMITES
A SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes Into Sour Bile, Making You
Sick and You Lose Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you fe& bilious, headachy, con-
stipated, and all knocked out, just 60
to your druggist and get a so cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without max
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you,, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
It's harmless, pleasant and safe to,
give to children; they like it.-Adv.

First Division Cities Act in ConiuCtiOn to Supply Money for
 An Appeal.
JUNEAU GIVES ITS SUM
Three Other Cities in This Division Have Already Sent in Checks as
 Their Quota.

That Inc cities and towns O, the First Division are to stand the cost of perrectng tlc appeal Co the Cir cult Cour; in the case ot tho First Division members of the lost Legis' laturc agams. the Territorial Treas urer, is indicated by the fact tAa the City Council of Juneau has. act ing in conjunction with the councils of the other towns Of the Division, agreed Co advance the sum of ap- proximately SEQ for that purpose.
 The suit is the one brought by the members of the Second Legislature from the First Division to prevent the distribution of the Forest reserve money among the four divisions of Alaska. This money was bone of contention in the Legislature and after a hard fight the members voted to distribute it equally between the four divisions. The members from the First Division claimed that as this money was derived wholly from forests in the First and Third Di- visions and under law which pro vides that the money shall be spent for the benefit of the county or coun- ties from which it is derived. the Legislature had no right to distri- bute it as they did and the Fourth and Second Divisions have to right to any part of the sum in question.
 The suit brought and financed by the members of the Legislature from the First Division was decided against the First Division by Judge R. w. Jennings.
 A letter from John c. Held. one of the plaintiffs. to the City Council in regard to the matter sets forth that the question is of vital inter- est to the entire division as the sum already appropriated amounted to >52.96S.17 and that there will be S4O.. 900 additional within the next two years. Tho letter sets forth that the cost of the suit so far has been borne by himself and associates. and that he personally is acting ai at- tcrney in the suit without pay. but that the cost Of an appeal and the cost of a trip to san Francisco which will be necessary. is too much for them to carry. The letter asks for assistance from the City Council.
 The Juneau City Council agreed Go stand the costs of the appeal and fl possible. to secure the otacr towns in the division to cooperate with it in the matter The cost was pro- 'ationed ont among ;hc towns as fol- lows:
 Juneau, S16o; Ketchtan and Doug las. $75 each; Wrangeli and Peters burg. $50 each; Ha.ces and SkagwaY $25 each
