PLAZA

OougAaS Fairbanks latest Triangle play, 1.-The Americano,'' is certainly proving a gold mine for the manage ment Of the Plaza theatre judging from the crowds that line up for ad- mission at every performance and it isn't as though it isn't worth it, for it is easily the best picture the popular and athletic star has ever produced for, the film. It is in five acts and crammed with thrills and dramatic surprises from start to finish.
 The Farrell, Taylor Trio in their up- roariously funny slxit entitled '"The Stranded Minstrel" create a veritable cyclone of laughter at every appear ante and they keep it up for the en- tire 30 minutes that they hold the stage.
 " In support are Burns and Foren, a pair of nimble footed youths who have some classy dances to offer; Gates and Duval in their clever slxit entitled ",Tae Button Salesman and the Emile Sisters in an aerial novelty that is a real treat. 7 Comedy films, including one Key stone production, fill out the bill in proper shape.
 Tomorrow. will bring the mucl1-her- atded "ATsene Lupin," in which Earle Williams assumes the title role, to the Plaza.

 It is such a proposition that the Florida Farms and Homes, Inc, Is of fering the people of Bridgeport. This iconcern, approved and assisted by the boards of trade of the various coun- ties in which it holds landd, is selling
 Florida land at a remarkably low hg- ure and at rates that no one can aI- ford to disregard. George c. Black we'll, general sales manager or the Florida Farms and Homes, Inc. is in charge of the Bridgeport office and since his advent. to Bridgeport he has sent many Bridgeporters to the Land of Flowers, everyone of whom has written to him and thanked him for the interest he took in their welfare
 and for giving them the opportunity
 of bettering themselves.
 l MT. Blackwell is maintaining an ex-
 hibit of Florida products in his office
 in the Poli buiIddng, and he is always
 willing and ready to explain the many
 wonders of the southern land to
 Bridgeporters, who are anxious to gain l a foothold in a new land which offers
 more than northern communities ever lcouhd for the simple reason that it is
 ont overcrowded and those who live
 there, are always willing to lend a
 helping hand the stranger.
 | Then, too, Bridgeporters should re-
 member that MT. Blackwell is organ
 izing a Bridgeport colony and the ma-
 jority of those who have purchased
 land in Florida have gone there only 1 to find that many of their friends are located there. or, if not, they find mu- i tual acquaintances and it is a matter \ of only few hours before you be-
 come acquainted with someone who l lived next door to personal friemd in

 Show a, Way,

There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tor lures of an aching back, the annoy ance of bladder trouble, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what a Bridge port woman says:
 Mrs. Reuben Stowe, "A Jackson Ave, Bridgeport, says: "I know from personal experience that Doan's Kid ney Pills are a fine remedy, and l have recommended them to a number of friends. About six months ago suffered from weakness in my back. At times had headaches and my kid neys were out of order. My back ached a good deal, also. Doan's Kid ney Pills soon removed the trouble They certainly are reliable kidney medicine and I can't speak too highly of them.''

PRISONER HIKES
 TO SERVE TINE

Seward, March 19 = Emil Am derson, of Nushagak, on Bristol bay holds the long distance record in Alaska for an "unescorted hike from court to cell" Anderson was con- yicted at Valdez, home of the court in this district, and travel led, 500 miles alone to Nushagak' where he served g thirty day sen- tence. He carried his own com mitment papers and had served his time, been released and at home two months before word reached the court that he had obeyed orders.
 Anderson's offense was that Of using a knife in an argument at the Nushagak cannery. After his arrest he was transported across Boring sea, through Unimak pass and northeast again to Valdez for trial, a distance of nerly 1,5OO miles by water, The testimony showed that beyond a doubt he had cut his opponent, but it also showed that the opponent was the aggressor. Under these circumstances the jury recommended extreme clemency. The court took cognizance of the slIua- ton and realizing that the man had already been in custody over two months ordered that he return hone and de liver himself to the deputy United States marshal and serve a sentence of thirty days.
 The last boat had sailed for Nu- shgak, and Anderson considered the possibility of getting job on the railroad here and waiting until spring to go home and serve his sentence, but he had left many things undone at home, so he optaln' eQ pdSSdSS Ou t UOSbS mnLSH him st nliamna, on tue west side ot Cook inlet. From Illamna, he started on the long overland jour- ney across the upper end of the Alaska peninsula. It was late fall' and there were snow squalls ana every possible inconvenience.
 For twenty days he waded and swan and mushed over the hills in Arctic weather, eating spartngly or his fast decreasing pack, which ne replenished twice with dog salmon from natives. He finally reached Nushagak on October 27, where he at once gave himself up, served his tsgm and was released November 25. according to the official return made to the clerk of the court which arrived in the winter mail via Cold Bay.
