BREVITIES
BY D. J. l..

Selznick Pictures Corporation an- inounces that it has obtained the ex- tclusive services of the popular Elaine NHammerstein. She is the third star under the Selznick banner. Miss Hammerstein is the daughter of Ar thur Hammerstein and the grand daughter of the famous Oscar Ham nlerstein. While she comes to her theatrical training through a theat- rical family still her ambitions have always tended toward the screen.
 Oliver Morosco, stage producer, has persuaded Francis x. Bushman to attach his name to a long-term contract for his appearance on the speaking stage. During the eight years that Bushman was on the screen he is credited with having made more pictures than any other film actor. He has directed many of his more important pictures such as Romeo and Juliet and "Graustark.'' D Mrs. Bushman will doubtless appear with her husband on the stage. On the screen she is known as Beverly Bayne.

BUNGALOW APRONS. STYLE
AT HARVARD THIS SUMMER

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. June Bun
gaIow aprons are to be the style
among Harvard men this summer. for
the college authorities have decreed
that every man vii be his own cham
bermaid
Practically all the undergraduate
body that has seen service shows an
anxiety to close up their books and
get a Job. Tho college folks have
helped this emigration along by es-
tabIisning war degrees which numer-
Gus students can obtain after a three
month session in the Harvard Sum
mer School.
Tenting is not popular along the
Charles on summer nights, and &C
commodations must be found. The
bursar's office has come 10 the rescue
and is allowing the students TO re-
tain their regular college quarters
for the summer at the customary rate,
but minus the presence Of the
"goodie" and other accommodations.

KILLS HIS SNAKE,
ALSO HIS BUSINESS

ATLANTA. Ga. June 13.-Some folks
say a coachwhip won't chase you and
tie you to a pine tree and whip the
everlasting daylight out OF you.
They scandalized this ancient tradi-
ton as unscientihc. and beside the
facts and the evidence. The defense
now calls to the stand one c.. w. Rob
bins whose initials may or may not
stand for George Washington, and
who night watches at the bowman
Dozier plant in Atlanta by night.
Mr.. Robbins. being duly certified,
deposes and says that the blamed
coachwhip went as far as possible
he chased Mr.. Robbins three times
around his own garden to begin with.
and when Mr.. Robbins Ginally turned
and gave battle, he (the coachwhip)
lassoed him and the ensuing wrest-
ling match simply ruined a large
part of an acre OF excellent radishes
and some fne young onions.
Was Pulling RadIshes.
Mr.. Robbins says he was out in the
garden Monday afternoon pulling
some radishes when he discovered a
siK-foot coachwhIp snake watching
him balefully. Mindful OF the tradi
tion, and despite the absence Of pine
trees. Mr.. Robbins turned and fed,
the coachwhip after him. Round and
round the garden patch fed Mr.. Rob
bins, and the coachwhip still pursued
him.
The chase ended near the barn.
where Mr.. Robbins was forced to
pause for breath. Whether the
coachwhip was shy Of wind also does
not appear. but he started crawling
under the barn to think il over.
Mr.. Robbins. encouraged by this
maneuver and angered at the dam
age already wrought among his gar
den-sass, grasped the snake by his
delicately tapering tail and dragged
him. kicking furiously, from beneath
the barn. Instantly the coachwhip
changed his tactics and looped him
self about Mr.. Robbins neck.
Business Picked Up.
Business picked up at once, and the
warm spring atmosphere was shat
tered by rude ordinations of the
rough-and-ready variety. The coach
whip had a combination grapevine
and head-hold on Mr.. Robbins, who
was striving to achieve the deadly
toe-hold made famous by the late Mr.
Gotch The radish bed was used as
a mat. and the grapple was fast and
furious. 1t is always a difficult mat
ter to put a toe-hold on a large and
scientific snake, but Mr.. Robbins was
battling for his life. and a few re-
naming radishes-and he got the
hold.
The first thing Mr.. Robbins did was
to unwrap the snake from about his
gooZle The next thing he did was
not strictly in accord with the wres-
thing regulations. Instead OF pinning
the coachwhip's shoulders to the rad
ish bed, Robbins deliberately and with
malice aforethought popped his
enemy's skull vindictively against the
side Of the barn.
The battle ended here. The snake
measured two inches over two yards
from tip to top.

FOX FARMING
 IN ALASKA IS
 BIG INDUSTRY
Many Oldtimers Turning Their Attention to Rais-
 ing Fur Animals

Fox farming is in it's infancy in the Territory, but there is no country in the world better suited in topography, geography and climate for the raising of foxes and other fur bearing animals. It is their native habitat; their natural food is here. Rabbits, fish and porcupine are plentiful, especially the much misunder- stood ''porky.' ' The fox dearly loves his flesh and he is so numer- ous and accommodating in parts that he will come to your back door and offer himself to sacrifice for the well being of the little foxes.
 There are blue fox farms, cross fox farms, black fox farms and just fox farms in Alaska, and the number is rapidly increasing. All are doing well. While there have been some failures as always in the experimental stages of new industry, but fox farmers have scored a smaller percentage of failures than any other busi- ness conducted by white men in the Territory. With the applica-. tion of patience, and common sense, success, eventually success, s almost certain. Every year sees a great number of Alaskan fox skins on the markets of the world and they are larger and better skins than those produced by other countries. They bring higher prices and are more in de- mand than skins from other places. Especially is this true of the black and silver grey foxes. The Kenai "black fox' is the largest and finest fox in the world. He is native of the Kenai peninsula.
 Within the past few weeks up. ward of half a dozen islands, mostly in the vicinity of Rake, have been located by residents of Petersburg, who will stock them with blue foxes.

One Thousand Miles
 to Nearest Newspaper

NOME, Alaska. - Trappers, miners and others of this far northwestern corner of the con- tinent, who for years have looked to Nome for their news of the outside world, will receive no regular news report this winter, as the Nugget, Nome's only news paper, has decided to suspend publication.
 For some time the Nugget has been the only newspaper in this part of the world and for more than year it has been the only paper here receiving daily news report. Now Fairbanks, Alaska, nearly 1000 miles away, will be the source of news from this part of the country.
 Nome, once one of the largest gold camps of the north, at one time supported several newspa- pers. This year so many persons are leaving on the last steamer that a newspaper would not pay.

Wolves have been seen on the beach just below Thane. AL most every night their bowling can be heard by the people of that place. A hunter a few nights ago while after ducks saw two of them, one a big fellow and another a young one, in the vicinity of the Gold Belt Mining company's power site on the beach less than a mile below Thane The hunter took a shot at one of the animals but missed.
 The wolves seen near Thane without a doubt have been driven by hungerand cold from the Ia ku river country where there are many of them.
 The bounty on wolves is $15 and about the same amount can be realized from the pelt. All that is necessary to do is to first kill the wolf. The whole pelt must be taken to a United States Commissioner and an oath taken. Part of the left fore leg of the animal must then be sent to the Territorial Treasurer accompan- jed by the affidavit taken before the commissioner. Juneau Elm pire.

WOMEN GET THE
 BUNK ON FURS

A small financial bubble burst at Kansas City police headquarters a few days ago, causing four wo- men to realize they had lost $75, and at the same time bringing about their release on charges of stealing set of furs.
 The police arrested Rose Lata- pie, May Brown, Roxie Parrot and Nettie Nigro at Missouri av- enue and McGee street on a charge of having in their posses sion stolen furs. A search dis closed each had a part of a set of furs. H. J. Wilde, furrier, FL eventh and McGee streets, whose store was robbed some time ago, said the furs were not his prop erty.
 They are just rabbit skins, worth about $12," Wilde told the police.
 What? You say these furs are not expensive" said the wo- men, in chorus. We paid $75 for them from a man who said they were expensive mink and could not be sold for s300.'
 A description of the man who had sold the furs to the women was taken by the police. The women were released. The po- lice kept the furS.
