ONLY ALASKA FISH
GOING TO Be USED
BY ARMY AND NAVY

Salmon Gamers have recently been notified that it is
not the intention of the Army and Navy to consider the
use of any salmon except Alaska Reds and Alaska and
Puget Sound Pnks and that is unnecessary for packers
of other grades to hold longer any goods reserved under
the Government instructions.
has been announced that the Government expects to
ask for cases of Reds and $4,000 cases of Pnks to
be apporoned among the packers in proportion to their
outnnt except cases where the amount involved would
be too small to ship in which case some other method Of
equalization will be arranged for The matter of appor
tionment is being attended to by E. B. Deming, Pacific
Coast representative of the Cooperative Committee on

ANCHORAGE, Oct. 81, (By MaiD
Brown bears are more numerous
now on the route of the government
railroad near Montana creek than at
any other time in the experience Of
construction crews. Reports from the
end of steel, which is near Montana
creek, are to the effect that herd of
seven large brown bears was seen re
Gently by workers.
When the grade was put through,
bears were frequently observed, but
not in such numbers as at present.
The animals are so bold that they
come to eat from the swill barrels at
the mess tents.

PAT FOUND WAY TO KEEP 1T
Resorted to Simple Device to Keep
Companion From Spending His
Own Money.

A Scotchman and an Irishman once
set out together on holiday. The lat
ter was a steady, frugal man, the for
mer was careless and spendthrift-
Conscious of his own weakness,
Sandy entrusted all his money to his
friends charge, with strict injunc-
ton not to give him back more than
stated sum for expenses each day.
After few days Sandy thought his
daily allowance inadequate for his de-
mands and pleaded for an increase,
but in vain.
Holidays over, the Scotchman in
formed Pat that, after the latter's re-
fusal to comply with his wish, he got
out of bed every night, when he found
the Irishman asleep, and made an ex-
tensive search to find the cash, but
could never succeed, and inquired OF
him where he kept 1t.
"WeIl," said Pat, II allowed you TO
go to bed first every night, and as we
occupied the same room, had no diff
ticulty in putting my purse, unoD-
served, into one of your pockets. was

the poor condemned soldier. It was
broiling hot day and the ride to camp
was long one of ten miles, but the
great-hearted Lincoln was bent on saw
ing the poor soldier and he went for
ward. Perhaps the president later for
got the incident amid weightier cares
of state, but not so the soldier. When
the Third Vermont charged upon the
rifle pits before Yorktown the follow
ing year the enemy poured a volley
upon them. The first man to fall was
William Scott of Company K, with six
bullets through his body. His COM
rades caught him as he fell and as
his life blood ebbed away, he raised
to heaven amid the din of battle, the
cries of the dying and the shouts of
the enemy, prayer for the president,
and as he died he remarked to his COM
rades that Lincoln had showed he was
no coward and was not afraid to die
At the burial later the chaplain mar
rated the circumstances to the boys
who stood about with uncovered
heads. He had prayed for the presi
dent and paid him a most fervid and
glowing tribute with his dying breath

SINGING CALLED LOST ART
SIGNALS, Drunkards and Phono-
graphs, Says Writer.

Singing, as far as most people are
concerned, Is a lost art. Thousands
attend operas, recitals and musical
comedies, tens of thousands wind up
monographs; but as for singing them
selves informally at their work or play
they have forgotten how. In times
past people of all ranks sang together
as a matter of course. Sailors sang at
their work, peasants, shepherds, cow
boys-all had their favorite and APP
propriate songs. The songs of chill
dren at games, the lullabies Of moth
ers are in the collected ballads and
folklore Of many peoples, says the In
dianapolis News.
1.-THE pastimes and the labors of the
husbandman and the shepherd" says
Andrew Lang, 'were long ago a kind
of natural opera. Each task had its
own song; blowing seeding, harvest,
buria1-all had their appropriate bal
lads or dirges. The whole soul of the
peasant class breathes in their bur-
dens as the great sea resounds in the
shell cast up on the shore"
Nowadays the whirl of machinery
makes all the noise. The workers in
mills might find 1t unsatisfying to sing
at their work, but it is doubtful if they
would sing even if their voices could
be heard; while singing in an office or
store would pretty surely be stopped
by the 'sboss" or the police, Thou
sands congregate every night in tbs
silence of moving picture theaters, ant
even in the churches where singing b,
the congregation used to be customar.
the attendants now usually listen ii
silence to paid singer.
Singing in this age is largely con
fined to the professional performer
drunken men and gramophones.

and the Alliance and the Pallas he
was swooped down upon by the fiotil-
la under Captain Pearson which was
conveying q merchant fleet. Jones
prepared to meet the enemy as best
he could. The British guns had long
range and Paul Jones determined to
fight close. He brought his ships up
to the enemy until the muzzles Of his
guns came in contact with the enemy
ships. Then ensued one of the most
frenzied conflicts in the history Of
naval battles, continuing from seven
to ten in the evening. Paul Jones
position was desperate in the extreme.
His ship was so shattered that only
three guns remained effective, and he
then assailed the enemy with hand
grenades which falling into the
Scraps soon set her on fire. AT
length her magazine blew up killing
all near it. Pearson commanded his
officers who wanted to surrender t.
board the Richard which was also
now ablaze in several places. Blu
Jones and his men received them Sc
warmly that they retreated. Pearson'
crew was killed, his guns unmountet
and his ship on fire and there was moth
| ing else to do but surrender.
