ALASKA IS DOING
 WELL IN CONGRESS

SEATTLE. April 4.-The progress of Alaskan legislation at the national capital was discussed by Falcon Jos lin at a luncheon of the executive committee of the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce yesterday in the Arctic Club, says the PostIntelligencer Mr. Joslin, who is Q member of the committee, has just returned from Washington, D.
 "The most gratifying thing 1 know of in relation to Alaskan affairs at Washington said Mir. Joslin, "fs that the house committee on apppropria- tions took up the item on the sundry bill providing for railroad work in Alaska for the coming year This item is for $S.S47OOO. Secretary of the Interior Lane and Commissioner Edes were before the committee and I understand tho committee were ap- parently favorable to granting the full amount asked for
 "It was feared the committee might want to reduce the item by the amount Of the S2,OOOOOO emergency appropriation which was passed some time ago If this item gets through, 1t will make a total of $1O.247OOO for railroad building and will enable the work to be carried on vigorously.
 Another good thing for Alaska is that the secretary of war on the ad. vice of Colonel Richardson has rec commended an additional appropria. tion of S5OOOOO for wagon roads, This. with the $15O,OOO carried in the regular military bill. will give S65O,- 900 for wagon roads. Judge Wicker sham is vigorously working for the appropriation and 1t seems certain to pass.
 "The law for leasing the oil lands in Alaska, as well as in the States, passed the house and has been re- ported fGvorably by the Senate com mittee on public lands. It seems likely to pass. This is a very import ant measure for Alaska. The same bill as it passed the house contained a section for leasing of coal lands and was much more favorable than the existing coal land leasing law in Alaska, but the Senate committee struck the coal-leasing section out. It did not apply to Alaska coal lands anyway. as Alaska already has leasing law. The regulations for leas- ing Alaska coal lands are said to be ready for issue and only await the secretary's signature. On the whole, things look very favorable for Alaska at Washington"

OLD UNION DOCK GIVES
 AWAY AND HOUSE FALLS

Part of the old Union Dock gave way yesterday afternoon and the city chemical house was dropped to the beach below the dock. The house was small one and sheltered a 40-gallon chemical engine and a stove, used in winter to keep the engine from freezing. The entire building fell and the falling timbers tore out part of the floor of Henry Berry's curio store and cigar store. An old lathe and other scrap iron, belonging to the Union Iron Works,

 The chemical engine and stove were pulled from wreckage unin- jured and will be stored at the Ju- neau Hardware Store until the build ing Is repaired or another perma- nent location is provided.

June. Mr.. Hollister was appointed

conducted the affairs of the office for
several weeks under the direction of

PLATT KNOWS BIRDS

Representative Edmund Platt, who
is a newspaper publisher of Pough'
keepsie, N. Y, knows more things
that are true about birds than any.
body else in congress.
Whenever he can collect a little
spare tisne, Platt puts dull statecraft
behind him and sets forth into the
woods and fields to listen to the song
and twitter of the birds. Sparrows,
robins, fiamingoes, storks, crows,
wrens-no matter what kind of birds
he sees, Platt knows them all by sight
If a bird is sitting still he can tell 1t
by it's plumage, if flying, by it's flight.
And if he can't see the stork or linnet
or cockatoo or whatever the bird is.
he can identify it by it's song. A bird
finds it practically impossible to fool
Platt. The blackbird that tries tc
pass itself off on Platt for a quail pre-
sents an absurd spectacle.
Rarely does Platt venture out o1
