Horton, when it was learn ed that I was to come here. I now feel that the joke is on them. l look forward with pleasure to my work in this city,
 MT. Horton said that though he had been in the steamship business on the coast for six years this is the first trip he has made to Alaska

 Mir. Horton has been in the steam ship business on Puget Sound since he came West from Michigan fiji. teen years ago He was with Capt
 E. E. Cain, when he bought the Watson and Buckman which formed the necleus of the Admiral Line,'

 History
 The Chautauqua was organized by Bishop John Vincent A years ago and from that small beginning on the shores of Lake Chautauqua New York, has developed the won derful system of today. It seems to have received an added impetus within the last half-dozen years, for where there were only a small per centage of cities throughout the West holding annual Chautauquas, today there are 5000 Summer and Fall sessions being held.
 This Chautauqua forward move ment has been endorsed and wonder fully assisted by the United States Government. Its platforms are to day being used to further every war activity; to bring the American peo pie to one mind as to winning the war, and speakers are giving to the people all over the country the mes sage of Garry On" ii
 Most of the great lecturers and orators and entertainers of the coun try have appeared on Chautauqua platforms, and all the great men of the country including President Will son, Viee-President Mrshall and Sec retary of War Baker have endorsed it's work.
 The Chautauqua festival at Ju neau will consist of five programs as follows:
 First Program
 Opening exercise and announce ments.
 Lecture Prelude, H. Ruthven Mac Donald.

Great Lecturers, Famous Entertainers and Talent ed Musicians Will Be
 Among Talent.
LEAVE THIS WEE K
Entertainers for Juneau's Festival of Instruction and Entertainment
 Coming Soon.

Although this Is the first appear. it is probably not necessary to say anything about the organization, " said Charles S. Heinline, who with Miss Grace Peck and Miss Nina Carr, are managing the Alaska Cir cult of that great organization, "be- cause everybody knows what 'Chau- tauqua' means"
 Tt might be we'll to say, how ever that the talent that is coming to Alaska is among the best that the Chautauqua has in the field. Allof those who will be here in Juneau are top liners, and all of them have gone over the top many times.
 "The principal lecturers are Dr.. w. J. Hindley, now Capt. Hindley, loaned to Chautauqua by the Unit ed States government, formerly May or of Spokane for four years, and Dr. William Reader of San Francis. co, for many years a newspaper writer and worker in the 'uplift' movement. Both are among the best lecturers the Chautauqua has, al though they are as different in their characteristics as two men can well be.
 Capt. Hindley is a strong, force full speaker, with clean cut ideas and high ideals. He strikes straight from the shoulder and commands atten. tion. For the past few months he has been speaking upon the vital issues of the war for the United States government. He has made more than 60 speeches at various military camps and has spoken be fore business mems associations. He has had wonderful influence in making German propaganda unpopu- lar in the United States. He con vinces his audience by argument.
 'Dr. Rader is an inspirational speaker of great eloquence. Col Hers says he is one of the twelve great orators of the United States. He has won distinction as a journal ist and author as we'll as a lecturer. When a member of the San Francis co Bulletin staff he was identified with Francis ,. Heney in his muni- cipal graft prosecutions"
 Other Talent
 In addition to the lecturers, the Juneau Chautauqua will have H. Ruthven Macdonald, a famous bari tone. humorist and entertainer. said to be one of the most popular men on the Chautauqua land Lyceum plat forms; the ladies Festival Orchestra, "six sparkling. talented girls" who "sing remarkably and play well, give orchestral numbers. readings. songs, instrumental solos, duets and cos tuned selections" and the Fillion Concert party, consisting of Ferdi- nanad Fillion, a prominent French violinist;" Miss Fern Goltra, dramat- ic soprano, formerly of the Chicago Grand Opera Company. and Miss

TIN HAT USEFUL IN SAVING LIFE ON
 FIGHTING FRONT

PARIS, Aug. 26-The case of one American Marine who went through hail of shrapnel and machine gun fire at Cantigny and is now con valescing from wound in the great American military hospital at Neuilly, in the Paris suburbs, seems to have demonstrated that the Amer ican field helmet, commonly called by soldiers, the "tin hat" is a thoroughly reliable article when put to the supreme test.
 This marine owed his life to his "tin hat," and the peculiar quail ties of it's steel in giving slighly without shattering. In. the midst of the action he went down with a ball striking the top of the helmet and pressing down to the skull. He was brought back, along with the helmet which showed a deep indentation about the size of half baseball. It was this indentation which had pressed down to the scalp, making a wound which re- quired trepaning But there it stopped, and the metal of the tin hat after giving to the missile until its force was spent, had stopped it in its deadly flight straight toward the brain. The trepaning opera tion was only slight and the marine was well on the way to recovery.

PAGE GIRLS AT THE

War time substitutions have their little compensations after all. as persons stopping at the Waldorf Astoria, in New York, have discov- cred in the last few days. In place of the boys who formerly delivered mali, telegrams and packages on the various floors there are now fifteen bright-faced page girls giving ser vice to the doors. In their uniforms of white waists. Palm Beach skirts and white shoes and stockings they are very easy to look at and they are doing their work as if delivering messages more in fun than anything else in the world. Miss Margaret Foley, head floor clerk at the hotel, who has the girls directly under her sare, explained that there is one girl

Hours for Closing Being Considered. d.
In. response to a letter being re-
ceived from the secretary Of the Re-
tail Clerks Protective Association of
Columbia asking for some ruling in
regard to closing mercantile estab-
lishments at o'clock on Saturdays,
B. B. Gossett, of Anderson, federal
fuel administrator, says in writing
to P. J. Smith:
81 beg to thank you very cordially
for your letter of Sept. l6, and entire
ly agree with your views as expressed
therein.
'"The only possible reservation
would be the matter of proper clos
ing hour on Saturdays, and might
add that have had under considera-
ton for some little time the question
of regulating the opening and clos
ing hours Of all mercantile establish
ments, office buildings, etc., during
the winter months.
''In fact 1 will probably issue an
order to take care of the situation
about the latter part of October or
the first of November.

Birthday Party.

Little Miss Frances Kearse cele-
brated her fourth birthday Saturday
afternoon by entertaining few of
her friends. The children gathered
at four o'clock at the home of the
little hostess and played games un-
til five. Then they were led by Miss
Mamie Mcmillan into the dining room
for refreshments. The dining room
was beautifully decorated in pink and
white. The room was darkened and
twelve small pink candles took the
place of sunlight for few minutes.
The birthday cake was in the center
of the table with four candles on it,
representing her fourth birthday. Ice
cream and cake were served and as
the children passed out they were
each given a small pink bag full of
candy. At six o'clock the little
guests left for their homes, wishing
for little Frances many happy returns
of the day.

WhaIey and Byrnes to Visit Our Boys
Over There.

Washington, Sept. 30.-Represen-
tatives Richard S. Whaley, of Charles
ton, and James F. Byrnes, of Aiken,
have left Washington for a visit TO
the European war zone. They will
be gone about six weeks, according
to their expectation, and their trip
will include the Italian front, as we'll
as the front in France.
The two South Carolinians intend
to make special call on the Pal
metto State troops wherever these
boys may be stationed in the war ter
ritory in or out of the trenches.
The rules of the voluntary cen
sorship make it impossible to say
from what port the South Carolinians
are leaving or at what port on the
other side they are scheduled to land.
Representative Carter Glass, Of
Virginia, chairman of the banking
and currency committee of the House,
will be the travelling companion of
Messrs. Whaley and Byrnes.

Boil Weevl at Allendale.

Clemson College, Sept. 30.-The
Mexican boil weevil has been con-
stantly advancing during the last
three weeks and the present time
has reached Barnwell county, having
been found at Erwinton and seven
miles west of Allendale. In the
southern end of its territory, full
grown weevils were found at Yemas-
see and twenty-five miles north of
Yemassee on the saltkeatchie river
road.
It is at once apparent that consid-
cradle territory will be invaded be-
fore the season closes which will be
anywhere from November the 7th un-
til November 18th. This distribution
is not caused by storms or winds, but
it is natural distribution. It cannot
be too strongly impressed that clean
farming is of more importance in
the weevil territory Of our State this
fall and winter than it has ever been
before. Where ditch banks, terraces,
fence rows, wood lots, old orchards,
and other places are allowed to har-
Dor rubbish, dead grass, weeds, etc.,
a large number of weevils will pass
the winter, and around such places
the danger the following year is al
ways the greatest.

NEW COUNTY WANTED.
To Be Composed of Parts of Barn
well and HmptOn.

Allendale, Sept. 1S-A mass meet
ing was called by a number of promi-
nent citizens and as result an or
ganization was formed last night at
the town hall entitled 3The New
County Association, with w. R.
Darlington, Sr., of Allendale, as
chairman; j. Fred Lightsey, of Fair
fax, vice chairman; w. T. Googe, Sec
retary, and NJ. NJ. Lightsey, treas
urer. About 100 leading citizens of
Allendale and adjacent communities
attended and exhibited much enthu-
siasm in the. proposition to form a
new county of the lower part of
Barnwell and a small part of Hamp-
ton. About 40 citizens subscribed a
total of $33,65O as a nest egg for a
building fund. Committees were ap-
pointed to work out all the details
of the undertaking. There were rep
resentatives from every section of the
proposed new county and no argu-
ment was offered against it, but the
body appeared to be- unanimous for
it's establishment. All the speakers
were zealously in its support and
dwelt with eloquence upon the needs
of road improvement which seems to
be the chief factor in the effort for
new county. A meeting was called
for Monday evening, September %,
to receive reports and further con-
slider the project.

Arrested i'm Atlanta.

On technical charge of being a
deserter from the army, Wilbur Hal
yard, a Bamberg county registrant,
was arrested last week in Atlanta, at
the instigation OF the Local Board of
Bamberg county. Last March Hal
yard failed to appear before the
board for physical examination. He
apparently left these parts, and was
not heard from until a few days ago.
1t appears that he went before the
Local Board in Atlanta with some
request, and the matter was referred
to the Bamberg board for informa-
tion. The reply Of the Bamberg
board was ARREST Wilbur Ha1yard,"
and later message stated that he
had been arrested. Halyard wired the
board here expressing great surprise,
stating that he had been in train
ing school during the summer. How
ever, this failed to square Halyard
with the board, and papers have been
forwarded to Atlanta to induct the
colored registrant Immediately into
the army.

Town Of krushevo Taken
From Enemy.

Rome, Sept. 2S.-Krushevo, an i'm
portant Bulgarian base 20 miles
northeast of Monastir, has been cap
tured by Italian troops who also
have driven the enemy from the
mountain ranges between the Cerna
and Velika rivers. The official state
ment from the Italian war office says
that the Italians also are pursuing
the Bulgarians on the Monastir-
Kichevo road north of Demirhissar, y
an advance of 20 miles.
ION September 25 our troops in
cooperation with our Iallies con-
tinued their advance from previous
lines and occupied Ponte di Buchin
and Verbyani> Malo. The enemy put
up stubborn resistance on the east
ern slopes of the Dragishets and Baba
mountain ranges, but was attacked
with great impetus and overwhelmed.
"Our columns, hard pressing his
rear guard, occupied Krushevo on the
following day, and on the 9th they
had passed all the mountainous mas
sifs between the valleys of the Cerna
and the Velika. Having reached the
Monastir-Kichevo road north of
Demirhissar, they are tirelessly con-
tinuing their march toward their OBJ
jectives.'
