 Aldermen were urged not to inter- fere with Hindu funeral rites, for their religion requires open-air cremations. They objected to using the crema- torium as the aldermen suggested.

FRESHMEN OF MILITARY AGE
 IN TRAINING

DUBLIN, Aug. 20 )by Associated Press). intensity of public senti ment in Ireland against British rule is evidenced by the actions of the recently elected Sim Fein local councils. Westmeath county council has decided that all the courthouses in the county shall be closed and the government officials resident in them evicted.
 The Irish volunteers have been ordered to see that no judges are allowed to enter the buildings for the purpose of holding any courts not recognized by the Dail Eireann, or Republican parliament Some councils have passed resolutions to raise contributions for the mainten- ance of the Republican army.
 At Claremorris, county Mayo, the local council has adopted a resolu- tion appealing to all Irishmen of mil itary age to undergo course of training in the Republican army, and will not give any position in the ser vice of the council to men who have not undergone such training. Tn all other places the local councils have decided to cut off the water supply from the police barracks.
 At Enniscorthy, county Wexford, where this is done, the authorities promptly hit back and the council room was raided by the soldiers.
 Meetings have just been held throughout Ireland for the purpose of selecting the judges who are to pre- side over the Sim Fein parish courts. These courts have jurisdic. tiOn in all cases under 10 pounds in value, and it is intended that their judges shall eventually be elected by the votes of the people in whose dis tricts they operate. Pending the or ganization of electoral machinery for purpose they have been selected by a conference composed of the mem bers of the Dail Eireann for the con stituency, the members of the county council, one clergyman of each de- nomination from each parish the members of the urban and rural councils, one representative of each Sim Fein club, one member of each company of volunteers, and one re presentative of each trades union body The judges so selected are tc act till December when there will be regular election by ballot of the voters.
 At Limerick the police invaded a Sim Fein court and seized the papers, but scores of courts are held every day and interference is not at tempted because their time and place of meeting are usually kept secret except to the parties con. cerned. In some places, however courts are held as openly as the kings courts.

SHORT STORIES ABOUT ALASKA
 OCCURRENCES

Mrs Oscar Carlson, aged 21 years, resident of Anchorage, died last week at the government hospital of | cancer.
 l The Titus Dredge on Highet creek 1 near Dawson has commenced opera tions, and is taking out some fine
 showings.
 Dawson is exhibiting samples ot l brome grass more than six feet high, and averaging about four tons to the acre. The patch is small but the far mers say the yield is phenominal Wild entrants and other fruits are reported to be ripening rapidly at in terior points and many residents are taking advantage of the season to can a quantity of these fine berries. Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., left Juneau in response to an urgent telegram that h:s father, S8 years of age, was dying. The governor went by way Of Prince Rupert and the overland train. His father died, however, be- fore his arrival.
 The Ainsworth & Dunn floating cannery which has been stationed at Hoonah has been moved from that place to Wards Cove where it will re- main for the balance of the season. It is reported that while under way the structure bumped a rock and was somewhat damaged.
 The Association of Pacific Fisher les in Seattle has asked the navy de- partment to send 12 additional sub- chasers to Alaskan waters to sup, press the many trap robberies which are occurring daily. It is stated that the pirates are using Canadian boats and taking the fish to Prince Rupert | for sale.
 The Alaska Endicott Mining Com pany in William Henry Bay, Lynn Canal has started operations, follow ing the installation of a five stamp mill. This is the first ore to be mill ed by the company and hopes are en- ! tertained of making good property. The company is also busy getting out mine timbers and lumber. Marie Mejia, co1ored woman, who was one of the principals in a shoot ing affray in Juneau several weeks ago, is again in the tolls, charged with disorderly conduct and the use of obscene and abusive language. She viciously resisted arrest and attempt ed to stab the officer with a large knitting needle.
