ALASKAN WATERS
 STAY DANGEROUS
of Commerce Says Has No Money to Safeguard Alas
 kan Lives Now

Answering telegrams and letters urging immediate appropriations and action for safeguarding Alaskan wa tors to prevent further loss of life and property. forwarded in the last few days by Che Alaska bureau Of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and Commercial Club, the Department of Commerce. Washington, D. C, in a letter received today by the burecau, reported an entire lack of funds and the facts and causes, says the Seattle Times of a recent date.
 The effort to obtain the surveying vessels 80 sorely needed for Che Pa rinc coast and Alaskan waters was defeated by Congress.
 The sundry civil bill apparently authorized one vessel, but the lam euage used was such that the comp trollcr of the treasury gave formal opinion that it did not permit the making Of a contract. The fact was brought to the attention of a sub omn.,toe of the House The "mis-
 akc" was acknowledged and cor take" was acknowledged and assur- ance was given that it would be cor rcctcd. However, on coming before lho full appropriations committee, Che matter was stricken out and the whole appropriation repealed.
 Through the initiative of Senator Wesley l.. Jones, a clause was in- serted in the deficiency bill, then pending in the Senate, definitely au- .horizing the contract for a sur veying vessel and this passed the senate. In conference, however. it was thrown out, the House conferees insisting on this action.
 The matter now stands thus; Fifty thousand dollars is appropriated toward the cost of a survey vessel 10 cost S35AOOO Tor surveying pur- noses to be used on the Pacific coast and i'm Alaskan waters. The lan- guage is such, however, that the comptroller of the treasury states ! the contract is not authorized there |by The Department of Commerce is. therefore. helpless to proceed.
 The chairman of the House com mlttee on appropriations stated on October 26 that the surveying vessel could be provided out of the funds available for the United States ship ping Board. President Wilson will be asked to decide.
 Assurances have been given to the ! Alaska Bureau that nothing will be left undone to get the equipment needed, but that tho united efforts ! of the Western delegation in Com rress and of the commercial bodies and newspapers on the Coast will be required to provide the equipment wlth which to make Alaskan waters safe for navigation.

PROGRESS OF
 FLU IN ALASKA
Epidemic Now Seems to Be Worse at Nome and to the Westward
 Many Die From It

In some parts Of Alaska the in- fluenza epidemic is reaching quite serious proportions and seems to be worse at Nome and Kodiak than at any other points for number Of fa- talities.
 At sltka 21 cases Of influenza are reported, with one death. At sha- kan Indian Village, which is some distance from the Treadwell camp, there are numerous cases. and Hyda- burg has reported 25O cases with eight deaths. At Kodiak twelve deaths occurred yesterday At Nome it is not known how many cases there are, but there has been a large number of deaths both among the white people and natives. lt was reported last week that a young lady had died at Hoonah from the effects oi influenza. but this was an error as she died of typhoid fever, and there are no cases of flu there.
 At Ketchikan there are a large number of cases but the fatalities have been quite light. only three deaths having been reported Ju- ncau is still reporting new cases each day and a couple Of deaths have been reported from there. The city council has asked the citizens Co an wear masks and will introduce an ordinance to make it a crime not to wear one.
 The government boat that was to leave Seattle with number Of nurses and doctors for Alaska to help fight the epidemic has not left yet. and it is not known when it will leave. Dr. Emil Krulish was Co have charge Of the party.
 At all points in Alaska extraor- dinary precautions are being taken to prevent the disasc from coming to town, and if 1t comes to town to prevent it's spreading. and it is likely that many places in the Ter ritory will escape any serious epi- denies.

SAGE Ten TURNS

It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Bring Back Color ard
Lustre to Hair.

That beautiful, ever shade of dark
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture OF Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked. just
an appica ton or two of sage and
Sulphur enhances it's appearance
hundredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the ms
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients for so cents a large
bottle, all ready for use. ct is called
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
ound. his can always be depended
upon to bring back the natural color
and lustre Of your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeths" Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because IL
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell il has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with ii and draw this through
the hair, taking one small strand at
a time: by morning the gray hair
has disappeared, and after anoth.e
application it becomes beautifully
dark and appears glossy and lustrous.
This ready-to-use preparation is a de-
lightful toilet requisite for those who
desire dark hair and a youthful APP
pearance. 1t is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention or dis
ease. adv.
