ANOTHER GOLD STRIKE
 REPORTED IN K0YUKUh

K0yukuk again registers with an other gold find, but the report is un- confirmed.
 Annually someone uncoverS a big body of rich dirt in that district but up to date there has never been any thing like general discovery madr' although some rich spots have been discovered ard worked to advantage. The one reported may be the genuine article OF i, may be another "boomcr' and t would probably be the part of wisdom to await definite information before starting on n stampede.
 The report received says that the strike was made on April 26 on the BettleS river some distance above WiSeman. The discoverers are said to be James Kelly. Frank Howard anct J. Holzer Three holes were put dow to bedrock. none of them being morc than 20 feet deep. each hole averaging fifteen cents to the pan and four and one-half feet of pay dirt.
 A large copper nugget was found by the discoverers in the gravel. The men are said to be working on 6 be- low and & and 10 above. but have not reached bedrock and it is unknown whether or not they found any gold. Arrivals at Panama on the last boat from the Koyukuk region brought the report. It will be sometime before an other large boat arrives at Tanana from the lower river. but definite in formation is expected in a short time,

STREAMS ARE TO BE CLEARED
 FOR FISH

Streams leading to various lakes adjacent to Seward are to be cleared so that the fish can run up the rivers. This information was given out here today by Hugh Dougherty who with Mayor Adams. of Cordova. both mem berS of the fish hatchery committee have been Investigating conditions 'n this section. Mr. Dougherty will go Co Cordova on the Alameda tonight with Mir. Adams and make an investigation in that vicinity of streams to be clear ed.
 The sum of S7000 was appropriated by the last territorial legislation for work in the Third division of special benefit to spawning grounds for fish. Representative John Noon is respon- sble for this Legislation which means so much to the Third Division and on ly by exceedingly hard plugging did the Seward representative finally rH- ceivc recognition and secure the Sum stated.
 Mr. Adams came over from Cordo- va on the Alameda and has been ma'l- ing an investigation here with Mr.. Dougherty and the work will soon hH started.

SMALL HERD OF YAK TO BE
 SHIPPED TO FAIRBANKS

C. C.. GeorgeSon. who iS in charge of all the government farms in Alas ka. advises that a small herd of Yak would be shipped to the Fairbanks station this season, and they will pro bably go in the near future. The animals were secured from the Cana- dian governments experimental sta tion at Banff. B. C.. where they have proven to be valuable.
 These animals were originally brought into the western world from Thibet where they are used for milk ing as well as meat producers and ioS beasts of burden. They answer all the purposes of cattle for the ThibetanS.
 For several years Professor Geor- geson has advocated an experiment lH cross breeding with the Yak and the Galloway stock which the government farming stations along the coast have imported into Alaska. The importa- ton of Yak into the interior. it is be- heved, means that such an experimen. will be tried at the Fairbanks farm. This. however, will probably not occur for voar or two as it is believed that no cattle will be taken there until next season. and possibly later than that.

The assistant district attorney of the Fourth division who recently wis ted Panama crossing said that the na' .tives were suffering on account of q shortage in supplies which might be- come worse later in the season.

Carry On Association
Seeking Federal Aid
Plans 200 Clubhouses in the
Larger Cities for Maintain
ing Disabled Soldiers

Mrs. Wendell Phillips, president of
the Carry On Association, is in Wash
lngton to-day comforting with officials
of the Federal Board for Vocational
Education in reference to the estab-
lishment of two hundred clubhouses
in the larger cities for the maintain
ence of disabled war veterans while
they are undergoing the training for
new trades provided for by the gov
eminent. The training board has re-
quested the association to establish
these Carry On clubs, and Mrs. Phil
lips's purpose in Washington is to pro-
cure approval of plans for the acqui-
sltion and maintenance OF the neces-
sary houses.
The government allowance to men
who undergo vocational training ranges
from S65 to $50 month for living ex-
penses. This is ample in many parts of
the country, but the Carry On Associa-
ton points out that it is entirely in
sufficient to provide the proper food
and shelter for those who have to un-
dergo training in the larger centers.
Besides Mrs. Phillips, the officers
of the association are Gerald NJ. Curran
and Walter Stabler, ice-presidents;
Garrard Comfy, treasurer; Mrs. James
Speyer, chairman advisory board;
Garrard Comfy, Gerald NJ. Curran,
Charles D. Hilles, Felix Jenkins, Mrs.
Wendell Phillips, Frank Presbrey,
Parker Sloane. Walter StabIer, Alfred
Stanley and Mrs. Charles L. Tiffany,

Nine. Cuilbert and Pupils
Appear in Second Recital

There was music at two Of the
smaller theatres yesterday. In the
afternoon at the Princess, Paolo Mar
tucci, a capable pianist, played a pro-
gram Of pieces by Mozart, Beethoven,
Chopin and others.
In the evening, at Maxine Elliott's
Theatre, Nine. Yvette Guilbert gave her
second recital of the season, contribut-
ing two Of the Golden Legends, two
Chansons Crinoline. and two modern
numbers, Jules Laforgue's "Complainte
du Pauvre Corps Human" and Fiona
Macleod's "La Priere des Femmes" 1t
is difficult to write Of Nine. Guilbert's
own work In any terms but superla-
tives. This year feature Of her re-
citals is the appearance of her pupils.
What American girls can accomplish
under her skilled direction was effect
lively shown in two songs once favorites
with the nuns of French converts, and
the Song of the Flagellants." The
young women appeared first in the garb
of the convent, and later in the costume
of the strange sect they represented,
armed with scourges and bearing palms.
Their work lent pleasing variety to the
entertainment. Less enjoyable, how
ever, were the inevitable violin num-
bers by Miss Gresser, to which, for
some strange reason, were added harp
solos by Miss Mildred Dilling. Less
music and more of Nine. Guilbert
would have been preferable.

'Aphrodite' Is Termed
nightmare of Nudeness'
Rev. DIR. Straton Calls Play "an
Orgy of Sensuality
and Shane''

The Rev. DR.. John Roach Straton,
pastor Of Calvary Baptist Church, in
his sermon yesterday returned to the
attack against the theater in general
and "Aphrodite" in particular, deplor-
ing the decadence of the modern stage
and terming the play at the Century
Theater "sn abomination" and "the
apotheosis of everything that is vile"
He told of how, although he has not
attended the theater for some time, he
and the Rev. DR.. Watson and the Rev.
DR.. Parkhurst did go to see the play
after it had been condemned by some
Of the newspapers"
That show" he said, "is a challenge
not merely to the religious convictions,
but to the elemental decency of our
citizenship. From beginning to end,
there is not a single appeal to the in
tellect or even to any right and decent
sentiment.
Nothing was left to the imagina-
ton. Every appeal was merely to the
sensuous and fleshly. 1t was a night
mare Of nude men and women with
bare-legged negro men in addition to
white men, squirming in and out, rub
bing against the practically naked
white girls. 1t was an orgy of sensu-
ality and shame, with men and women
in condition of almost complete un-
dress hugging each other and slobber-
ing over each other and lolling on
couches with each other, and dancing
in feigned drunken revelry together.
What possible good can come to our
modern life from digging up this filth
from the Grove of Aphrodite,' etc.
which destroyed that ancient civiliza
ton in which it was allowed to flour
ish? What possible art or entertain
ment can there be in the silly cavort-
ing Of harlots and degenerates ?"
