LIBERTY WILL
 BE EXHIBITED
 AT PARK TODAY

Today at the park. some time dur ing the sports, the rooster Liberty will be rallied off for the benefit of the Red Cross. He will be placed on exhibition before the drawing is held so that the public may see what noble bird he is. The chanc- es will be fifty cents each and no limit will be placed on the number to be taken by any individual.
 Liberty has done good work since starting out on his errand of raising funds for the Red Cross and each place where he has been disposed of has seen the amount raised by the preceding place exceeded. It is the desire of those having the raffle in hand to exceed the amount raised by Nenana, $14S. and to that extent the public is asked to go the limit and set a mark for the rest of Al aska to shoot at.
 After the drawing is held the win ner is supposed to turn the bird back to the fund again to be dis posed of at some other place for the same purpose. From Hot Springs comes the request that he be sent there, as the people are anxious to get look at the most famous roost. CT in the United States. From there he will be sent to Skagway and to other Alaska towns. Making the tour of Alaska, he will be sent to the large cities on the Outside for the same purpose. It is thought rand he will be the most valuable fowl in the world

'SEDITI0N LOST
 NATURALIZATION

By a recent decision of district court in New Jersey it has been de- clared possible to un-naturalize those of foreign birth who have taken out their final papers. The case in which the decision was rendered was that or the United States of America vs. Frederick W. Woursteh- barth, who was convicted of sedi- tion.
 The court rendering the decision found that Wursterbarth made men, tai reservations and secret evasions of mind at the time of his declara- tion in order to secure his naturali- zation papers and that fundamentally he never became resident of the United States.
 In making the decision the court held that if any naturalized citizen be found guilty of making seditious utterances against the government of the United States the government may take action to have his citi- zenship papers annulled and he will be made liable to internment

TEDDY BROWN
 GETS BURNED

Yesterday afternoon Teddy Brown had the misfortune to receive severe burns about the head and ears to such an extent that the services of a physician was required to alleviate the pain.

In some manner Teddy had his face close to the shell when the powder exploded burning him severely. Dr. Suther- land, who attended him, states that the burns are superficial and nothing serious will result.

PENSI0NS ARE
 UNCALLED FOR

Commissioner Heilig has a number of pension checks on hand made out to those who receive them from the territory, and he much desires that they be taken up.
 Those to whom the checks are is sued are Stephen I. Randall, Matti Kauppila, Frank T. Miller. The checks have been in his possession for some time, and it is probable that the parties to whom made out are not aware that they should call at the office of the commissioner and receipt for them. Hence they are notified to do so.

SILENCE WAS GOLDEN.
One day last week
 a stranger made a six-bit purchase from Bredlie's Cigar store

and gave a ten-dollar gold piece in ister was very short of change. He would have to step next door and get change. so, while he was at it he thought he would get plenty. and he took $20 gold piece out of the drawer and put the custom CTS $10 piece in the drawer; be- lieving in quick and efficient service, he was soon back with the change and gave the waiting customer change for $20, and he pocketed it and mushed. Where ignorance is bliss 'twere folly to be wise. The pro- prietor forgot all about the trans
