MAY GET MARRIED

It is reported around town on good authority that R. E. Murphy, Alaskan manager of the DuPont Powder Com panly, is on his way to Seattle and Spokane to get married. The evi- dence against MT. Murphy is purely circumstantial, but when simmered down, it makes pretty strong chain.
 MT Murphy left Juneau recently for Ketchikan. A few days ago R. Keeney, assistant to MT Murphy re- ceived word that Murphy was going to Seattle. It has been known for a long time that he was deeply inter ested in certain young lady living in Spokane.
 Recent arrivals from Kennecott say that a young man there received a letter on one of the last boats say ing that his sister was to be married shortly to the Alaskan manager of the DuPont Company and that if he should come to Juneau he would see her.
 All these facts taken together con. vince the friends of Mir. Murphy that something is in the wind. The Elm pire staff are suspicious, but are mak ing no predictions one way or the other, merely letting the evidence against MT Murphy speak for itself

Audience Puts Up Excitement,

William Russell refereed a wrest- Barbara audience one night recent ly. The contestants were "BulP' Montana, Douglas Fairganks' spar ring partner, now working in a Russell American feature, and J. Martin, a Santa Barbara man, a Greek The motion picture element of Santa Barbara shouted encour- agement to Bull" while the two hundred or more Greeks in the hall excitedly championed Martin.
 More than once Russell had to call time on account of strange and unprofessional holds, which either Montana or Martin secured upon each other and. just as Russell was pronouncing Martin the winner of the bout, the latter rushed in upon Montana, grabbed him by the throat, and Russell. after separating them, reversed his decision, naming Montana the victor. Immediately, a general fight started, the stage was swamped with battling Greeks and the police of peaceable Santa Barbara for once had their hands full.
 Fearing the worst, Russell started for the dressing rooms of Mo9tana and Martin. He found them start ing out. arm in arm, for restau- rant in the Greek section, where beefsteak. any way you want it, re- tails at two bits"

Precautions Being Taken.

More than half Of the insect pests
that annually cause immense lossee
in fruits and Vegetables Of the United
States could have been kept out Of
this eeantry By thorough quarantine
agald1t them. according to omcials Of
the United States department. Of aSri-
culture. To guard against more In
furious insects being brought in from
other countries IL the object Of the
federal plant quarantine act Of 1919
which, with the development Of knowl-
edge Of insects throughout the world.
has resulted In the bars being put up
wherever the pests are likely to enter.
Among the insects Of other lands
that have not yet become established
in this country are the serious pests
known popularity as fruit files. They
resemble ordinary house flies but are
far more beautiful, inasmuch as their
wings are prettily spotted and band
ed and their bodies are usually more
brightly colored. They are like house
flies also in that they lay small. white
eggs that hatch into whitish maggots.
However. the maggOts do not develop
in refuse or decayihg matter as do
those of the house fly but they feed
upon the living tissues Of fruits. nuts
and vegetables. Eggs are laid just
under. the skin of the host plant or
fruit and these hatch into the mag
gots which burrow in all directions
through the pulp. As the maggots
tunnel about they cause decays to
develop and these rotting areas often
produce greater injury than the mag
gots themselves.
Where Danger Lies.
Increasing imports from the coun-
tries where fruit flies now abound, ex-
tension of trade to remote corners
Of the earth. increasing density Of
population in the warmer portions Of
this country. are making greater each
year the danger that fruit flies may
become firmly established in the Unit
cd States.
To intercept and destroy fruit flies
as we'll as other pests, the federal
horticultural board of the department
of agriculture, charged with the en-
forcement Of the plant quarantine act.
prohibits the entry Of all horticultural
products likely to carry insect pest.
unless they have been rendered free
from danger as pest carriers, either
by federal inspection or by treatment
By approved methods under federal su-
psrvision.
The department also has estab-
lished in the Hawaiian islands q sys-
tenn Of inspection mat 10 heartily sup
