CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS SUSTAINS
 THE ALASKA COURT

The United States Circuit Court of Appeals at San Francisco upheld the United States District Court of the Third Division in the case of the Canoe Pass Packing Company and Northwestern Fisheries Company, ac- cording to advices received in Jul neau on the Alameda from Valdez. The two companies were convicted in October 1919 of the crime of fishing with a set net in Mile Lake within 600 feet laterally of another set net. They were fined $1,000 and costs eoch.
 The case was bitterly fought by the defendant companies who ap- pealed from the verdict of the Third Division Court, with the above re- suit. This is said to be the seventh case appealed to the Circuit Court of Appeals from the Third Division Court and is the seventh case upheld.

Collins Praises Morton s Ad- ministration-Says Home
 Is Doing Great Work.

"The Pioneers Home at Sitka is an institution deserving of every cent the Territory can justly devote to it and if anything must suffer in the future on account of a shortage of funds, it must not be the Home" declared Senator F.. B. Collins, in describing his visit to that place while he was at Sitka last week. "The place certainly was a surprise to me and I am more than glad that had the opportunity to go through the Home and talk with it's inmates" said Senator Collins
 Mr Collins went to Sitka on the Spokane last week, arriving there at 500 Saturday afternoon and pro- ceeding to the Home as soon as possible He was met by Supern- tendent Harry F. Morton who took him there to talk with the old timers. "I spent some time there," he said, "and talked with practically every inmate, many of whom l have either known personally or heard of. All of them have the warmest regard for Superintendent Morton and his wife both of whom have done and are still doing everything ir. their power to make the Pioneers Home a real home for those men who are being cared for in their declining years by the Territory. When MT. Morton was appointed to the position two years ago. was one of those who opposed him be suited to the position. However, am glad to say that I was mistaken at that time and MT. Morton cehtain ly has made good"
 Senator Collins commented on the neatness of the quarters and' the or derly appearance of the inmates of the Home. The Hospital, he said, is a valuable addition to the Home and makes proper care of the Pi- oneers more readily obtainable. He believes that the subdivision of the dormitory could be improved by com paratively inexpensive alterations changing the squadrooms in which many of the men have joining quar- ters inot rooms in which not more than two individuals should be housed.
 "As this was my first trip to Sitka I was surprised to find such busy and thriving little city" the Senator said There is considerable activity there even now which will be greatly augmented, I was told, in a few weeks. The people there are optim istic over the future and the town looks like a conner to me" Sen ator Collins visited many points of interest including the famous Russian Church and the Potlatch Orchard.
 q left Fairbanks with the convic- tion that Alaska must economize during the next few years in is governmental expenditures. said Senator Collins. q am still of that conviction, but I came away from Sitka determined to oppose any ef- fort made to cut down on the allow ance for the Pioneers Home. It is doing a great work and it must be kept going and even increased irst as far as the Territory's treas ury will stand"

 The screen story is based on tile lives of just home folks" and it's To- cale is Goose Island, squatter set tlement off the coast of Maine Here, as in Shore Acres and Way Down East in tho midst of this quiet and peaceful community of quaint characters, stalks drama ant, |tragedy. tempered with the humor that springs from the reflex of their |cynOcism and narrowness.
 Stella Talbot, in the role of Mary Aldron, gives herself in an unselfish attempt to save her sqnatter kin from homelessness and privations. When she returns again to the island after ten days as the guest" oi Edward Grayson, it's owner, she finds it's population united in its horror over her action. Unwilling to yield to her sincerity and the realization of her sacrifice had been made for them, they drive her back to the mainland. There, in her resumption of her acquaintance, she discovers that the island to which he claims title has been legally deeded to the "sQuatters" by his father just before the elder Grayson had been killed ill an accident.
 Despite the unmerited islander and disgrace her kinsmcn had heaped unon her, she returns to Goose Island to tender them the document which would end forever the fcud between the squatters and the Graysons.

 The number of persons injured, has not yet been determined the ofhcials said.
 Relief trains were sent from here and from Michigan City, Ind. ;
 The wreck occurred when Train No. 20 on the Michigan Central derailed and collided with New York Central .rain. The New York Central an- nounced that two men on it's train had been killed.
 The Michigan Central train left Chi cago at 5.05 D. m. for the east
 Officials for both roads said the act ual cause of the wreck could not be determined but it was presumed that the Michigan Central train either ran into a closed switch or else the rails spread as the two trains were passing each other. The Michigan Central , and the New York Central use the same tracks out of Chicago. Porter, Ind. is railroad junction point, fifty miles from Chicago. It is there that the New York Central lines 1 cross those of the Pere Marquette. The nearest cities are Gary and Michigan City. Ind.
