ing one that another day and evening will be devoted to this inimitable comedienne and the humorous story which she depicts as only Constance Talmadge can. Constance Tolmadses as Mary Blake, finds herself in the home of Jim Stanhope, the man she was determined to yamp. and thrlli7 ing little episode in which four un- washed bolsheviks play a prominent part, combine to blend the excruciating comedy with the most fascinating type of suspense. Mary got a crush on Jim the moment she heard him address the working girls club. How she deter mines to get a job in his office in spite of the obstacles that inject themselves in her way and the many side splitting situations that develop must be seen in order to be appreciated. The Per feet Woman" will be shown for the last times today and tonight at Mauk s Columbia theater.

WASHINGTON, Feb. (by Asso ciated Press) sharply upon the house committee Investigating the war, Charles Dawson, former head of the army supplies procure, ment service in France, declared vain the work accomplished there through a useless injection of party politics.
 "I bitterly resent this attempt to reflect discredit upon the entire army because some poor devil blundered in Switzerland You cannot put a blotch on the army.

LABOR DEPARTMENT
 WANTS MORE FUNDS

Not many people in Alaska know that the territory has a labor com missioner. The fact will become known fore definitely. 2according to present plans. when the legislature will convene, upon recommendations to make the place something more than merely a name.
 The position of labor commissioner is an additional honor thrust upon" the territorial mining inspector with out any allowance. It may also be said in passing that even the allow ance for the mining inspector is in sufficient for office rent and but for the courtesy of the territorial attorney general in giving part of his office to the mining inspector, the latter would have to carry his office around with him."
 Under the territorial act, the labor commissioner, B. D. Stewart, is au' thorized to make an annual report to the governor relating to all depart ments of labor in the territory, espec | ially in it's relation to the industrial social and sanitary conditions of the laboring classes and to the permanent prosperity of the industries of the territory" The commissioner has the power to inspect all industrial plants in order to see that they are sani tary.

Who Is Jap Wada?

Who is Jap Wada?
 Ask any old-timer and he will scratch his head and reply, Why, he is Jap Whda."
 In fact, ali sourdoughs know him, yet no one has been found who knows his history first hand before coming to Alaska.
 News that he is now in the oil fields of the Mckenzie river basin, at Fort Norman, has aroused interest, because of the fact that he has been on the ground flor of every important stampede in the north since the Klon- dike since the Klondike days.
 Jap Wada is now rather an old man. He Is a part of the history of the north. Probably few men have mushed more miles across the wide distances of the Northland Wada has been all over Alaska, made trips to the Boring sea across mo mans land" between the Yukon river and the Arc tic and on several occasions has pene- trated into the "wilds of northern Canada" Several times he has been reported lost, Disappearing from the haunts of man without any notice, sev- eral months or a year afterwards, he has turned up in some unexpected place.
 His presence in the Mckenzie river oil district is taken as a sure sign of big stampede in that district.
