GAME FOOD TO
 BE CONSIDERED
 CONVENTION

International Association Game and Fish Commissioners will hold an nual convention in New York on September 12 and 13. They urge in view of great importance problem of food production in relation to game and fish and conservation thereof that Alaska be represented by strong and able delegation. Question to be taken up will be increased produc- tion food fish and propagation birds and animals to be given special ac- tiOn CRAMER."
 The above message was received by Governor Riggs yesterday from Secretary Cramer at Juneau, and as is set forth it is probable that some action will be taken at the meeting of the association regard ing the question of using the game resources of Alaska as means of conserving the meat supply of the nation as far as Alaska is concerned.
 In referring to that part which re- quests that strong delegation be at the meeting to represent Alaska, the governor announced that he had appointed Edward c. Morrissey and Charles Sheldon to represent the in terior of Alaska Both are well qualified to represent this section of the country, the former by his knowledge of conditions existing in the interior and the latter by his actual observance of the amount of game available, he being one of the few hunters from the States to make close observation as to the quantity and kind of game to be had in the interior.
 For the coast the governor has ap- pointed Food Administrator Philip R. Bradley and Charles D. Garfield. With the representation thus appointed the commissioners will be enabled to re- ceive first hand an insight into the true conditions existing in Alaska, and undoubtedly their recommends tions will go long way toward ac- quiring for Alaska that which is rightfully hers-the privilege of con trolling her own affairs on the game question.

GOVERNOR WILL
 DEPART TODAY

Some time today Governor and Mrs. Thomas Riggs will leave in a launch for Nenana, at which place they will spend a few days before proceeding on their journey back to Juneau.
 The itinerary of the governor will limit his stay at the railroad town until the arrival of the Yukon on it's down trip. Taking the Yukon, he will proceed to Tanana and there await the arrival of the steamer Sarah, on which the trip to St. Mi chael will be made. The stop at Ruby will be limited to the length of time that the boat remains in that port.
 From Nome the steamer Victoria will be taken to Cordova and a short stop made there. On the completion of his visit at the coast town the trip to the capital city will be made.

PAINFUL BURN
 WAS RECEIVED

While engaged in thawing the drift in the Hilty mine on Cleary creek. Colin McGilvary had the misfortune to sustain a bad scald on Thursday afternoon, one side of his face and neck receiving the injury.
 In some unaccountable manner blow back" occurred from point he was driving, and but for the for tunate circumstance of having his face turned he might have received the full force of the live steam squarely. The injured man came to town yesterday to receive medical attention, and it will probably be several days before he will be able to resume his duties.

CHILD
 PROVIDED FOR

Another addition was made to the already long list of orphans adopted by those of Fairbanks and vicinity. While the amount for the support of the child will be credited to the Fairbanks fund, the adopters live at Juneau. Governor and Mrs. Thos. Riggs, who are much interested in the welfare of the fatherless ones. have provided French orphan against want for the next year. It probably will be interesting to the child they have adopted to know that its foster father is the executive of country over twice as large as it's native land.

 --"Why. how do you

do, and are you the E-- H. that I used to go to school with years ago." "Yes, I guess I am." "Oh, how I remember that cute lisp of yours and you were so bashful.." All of which recalls the favorite story of Judge Alton B. Parker, Democratic candidate for President in 1904, in which he tells of a young man in Savannah named Du Bose, who invit- ed his sweetheart to take a buggy ride with him. The young woman had very fetching lisp. When they reached rather lonesome bit of road the young man announced:
 "This is where you have to pay toll. The toll is either a kiss or a squeeze"
 "Oh, MT. Du Both!" exclaimed his companion.

 LATEST One of our pioneer IN HOSE; ladies was returning A LA ALASKA from Nenana on an
 A.-Y. N. steamer a short time ago that had several tour ists coming to Fairbanks. During the trip she noticed one of the new corners with abbreviated skirts sit ting so she displayed generous portion of her ankles that were clad in beautiful sheer silk brown hose. Now the lady has been north for many years, and, like all ladies, is interested in the latest fads and fancies of Dame Fashion.
 A second glance showed tue hosiery to be something different than even Monty Sears or Bon Frederick had pictured in their latest catalogues. They were a rich brown with a diagonal stripe and curiously shaped chocolate clox on one, while the other had large square polka dots of the same color. The lady deter mined to get better view, so she changed her seat directly opposite the newcomer, and lo-the secret of the beautiful clox, stripes and polka dots was out. Undoubtedly the lady had been posted by some sourdough berry picker and her le-limbs under the glossy silk were swathed or twined with newspapers, decidedly mosquito-proof, and the quaint clox, stripes and figures were the headlines and large advertising letters showing through the sheer ness of the neither garments.
 NOT THE One of the novelties BOSTON introduced by Mrs. KIND. R. R. Myers at the
 Red Cross tea proved very amusing to the guests and was the means of selling" several male tea splashers.
 The lady had received several can dy pork and bean limitations so skilfully made that nothing but a taste could detect the deception.
 Bob Sommers and Jack Buckley were fish, and wise old John Kelly, the prince of jobbers, fell like any ordinary goat. He patted his beans down with his fork with looks of pleasant anticipation spread over his countenance. Finding them a little hard, he politely jabbed the slice of bacon and started to eat, while screams of delight came from the ladies at the expression on his face. WILL BE NO A crowd of Eagles HEADACHES, were sitting around a ANYHOW table at the social
 session the other night after lodge telling stories while they ate smoked salmon and cheese sandwiches and drank near beer. One said the smoked salmon re- minded him of story Ben Downing one of the Circle City mail carriers, told to a cheechaco lady that caused her to gaze at him with horror and disgust. After enlarging on the trail hardships he ended his pipe dream by telling how he ate out of one end of the dog pan and the mala- mutes out of the other and then curled up in the middle of the bunch and went to sleep.
 How do you fellows like this near beer," inquired a brother. Well, it's wet, all right, but about as ex- hilerating as kissing your sister," said another.

FAM Two ladies went into THAT the Arcade restaurant BAlD." the next day after
 Onion Jones and Blackie Daw, chaperoned by Dick Thorne, paid Fairbanks visit
 They studied the bill of fare and talked about the show the night be- fore and waited for the courteous proprietor to take their order. As he approached one of them with her mind still on the movie, said, "Give me double order of tomatoes, MT. Onion" Arthur looked startled for minute and then rubbed his pate, and while they laughed he rushed to the mirror to see just how bald he really was.

NO WONDER THEY w ERE STARTLED

NO WONDER The fire department THEY WERE hose wagon was re- STARTLED turning from an exer-
 else run last Monday and just as the horses got to the end of a large pile of fourfoot wood, opposite the federal jail, they sud- denly became frightened at some. thing, shying away off into the mid dle of the street, which was very re- markable in those two well-trained veteran horses. The driver checked the startled animals, wondering what there could be about that wood pile which they had passed so often be- fore. He urged the prancing team ahead, and then he saw the "nigger in the woodpile"-it was only blond business man, in shirt sleeves, wear ing a flat topped straw hat, with wide band of striking colors-and he was splitting wood!!! The driver couldn't make out what had excited his well-trained team-the splitting of the wood or that bonnie bagpipe band on the straw hat.
 EVERYBODY 4 player in solo SEEING game, in Front THINGS street tobacconist's
 Sunday, must have made a "pretty good f4og," for one suddenly appeared near four-handed game and hopped away, under pool tables, then the whole length of the long room, and out of doors About that time large, long-tailed rat ran in the front door of another Front street "seegar" store. The effect on the crowd was different than if the intruder had butted in unannounced into a sorority club. Every man tried to kill it; Yaeger cornered it with a club, and by the expression on his face he thought he had tho German kaiser-but it eluded him. Another man, in trying to put his number 'leven on it, only succeeded in step- ping on it's tail, whereupon--hun like it turned and bit him on the leg. However it's limp carcass was soon floating towards St. Michael like a dead Hun on the Marne.
 And next day, if large red squir- rel doesn't scurry up through the mass of wires on the big telephone pole, right between two popular Front street meal dispensaries, and hold forth-do you believe in signs or omens?

Governor Withycombe is expected to
announce this afternoon the appoint
ment of State Senator Conrad 2. Olson

who is elected on November 5 to fill
the position will take office.
Se9ator Olson was campaign mana
ger for Governor Withycombe during
the recent primary election campaign.
and in the last session Of the legisla-
turc he was considered to be the gov

soon as the present vacancy occurred
it was predicted that the. governor
would pay his political debt by ap-
p siting Olson to the place.
This viii be Senator 0lson's first ex'
pefienee on the bench, as he has never
served as a circuit court judge. He is
80 years old and has been practicing

WILL MAKE CHANGES
IN NE. PASTORATES;
SALEM Gets MEETING
Announcement OF Death Oi
Bishops S Son Made To
Conference
Portland, on. Sept. q

Rev. j, G. Rollins OF the MedfOrd
Methodist church is to be assigned to
Centenary church in Portland. This is
the most important assignment that
will be made this year by Bishop Shep,
ard. 1t is also stated that Rev. Aaron
A. Heist Of the Rose City Park Meth
odist will be promoted to the Astoria
church in accordance with the recon-.
mendations that Oregon pastors be Civ,
en- preference in changes that are made.
These statements, while unofficial, com
from what may be considered reliable
source Of information.
Changes in Methodist charges that
will equal if not exceed in number the
great shake-up that occurred two years
ago, will be made by Bishop William O.
Shepard, presiding over the Oregon con.
ference WHICH is in session in Portland.
The changes are from different cause
from those of two years ago, the shift
ing about now being due to war condi
tions which have caused many pastors
to enter the army as chaplains or to
enter Y. NJ. c. A. work. The authority
that there will be large number Of
changes comes directly from the bishop
himself.
Yesterday mornings session of the
conference was significant for two eur.
cumstances. One was the selection Of
Salem as meeting place next year and
the other was the formal announcement
Of the death Of the bishops son, Mark
Shepard Of the radio corps, United Sta
tes arymmy.
Superintendents to be Returned.
1t is almost certain that the four dis
trict superintendents will be returned
to their work For a short time is was
thought that DIR. Ford of Salem dis.
triet would ask for leave of absence
on account if ill health, but this did
not materialize, much to the personal
delight Of the bishop.
One of the surprises of the conference
is that c. G. Rarick of Centralchureh
is to assist DR.. Clarence True Wilson,
who has charge of the prohibition work
of the Methodist church of the United
States. Several men have been named
by delegates to the conference as pos.
sible successors Of Rev. Mr.. Rarick, and
the most of them seem to center about

the people have concentrated on ac-
count of war work.
Because Of the death Of his son, the
bishop will close the conference early
this morning. His sons body will be
buried at Wichita.
Rev. A. N. Fisher celebrated his S0th
birthday yesterday and in honor there
of the conference presented him with
bouquet of roses this morning. The
bishop paid glowing tribute to this
venerable preacher.
0. c. Bortzmeyer, secretary of the
civil service board and member of
Centenary church arranged for the en-
tertainment of the 125 preachers and
their wives who are in attendance at
the conference. SO complete were Mr..
Bortzmeyer' preparations that he had
rooms to spare when all delegates were
located.
By unanimous vote teh conference
sent a telegram Of greeting to Bishop
Matt s, Hughes who is conducting a
conference in Iowa. The delegates also
conveyed their sympathies to Rev. M.
B. Parounagain and Rev. Mr.. Oberg.
The former fell in a faint in First
church and was taken to his home, and
the latter was struck by a streetear.
