OUTLOOK FOR
 ALASKA PULP
 ENCOURAGING

KETCHIkAN, April 12. Senator matter of securing an appropriation for the construction of a government pulp and paper mill in the vicinity of Ketchikan. The city council several weeks ago instructed the city clerk 10 write the forestry bureau, Sen ator PoindeXter Delegate Dan Suth- er1and and others relatives to the pos sibility and advisibility of establish ing a government pulp and paper mill in the vicinity of Ketchikan for the dual purpose of showing the feasibility of operating such plant in Alaska, and to finnish the govern ment with it's trmendous supply of paper. The first reply received came from Senator POindexter and reads:
 "I am just in receipt of yours of the 17th instant, relative to a govern ment paper mill near Ketchikan | am very much encouraged to notice the recent activities relative to the use o1 the wonderful pulp forests of Alaska, a thing which I have been urging for several years. I will be very glad to take up at once with the forestry service, the practical question relative to sites, etc., and to give the matter thorough considera- tion. Our eXpeience duing the war and since the war, with government enterprise of various kinds, has been very discouraging, and the utter in- efficiency of most government busi- ness operations has been demon strated, but it may be that in this particular case, we could get con sideration for an appropriation. At any rate, l will take pleasure in giv- ing the matter attention"

A triumph indeed, for an un- known actress

In what devilish way had he unearthed the facts; how did he know about the "Cinema Murder?" He told her of it brutally, and bade her choose between himself and the galloWs for the man she Boved
 How she chose, and the results, form smashing big climax, thrilling and dramatic.
 No doubt you read "The Cinema Murder" as a serial in the "Cosmo- politan." Now you will see it, vivid and convincing and appealing, as DOT trayed on the screen.

TRUCK WAS FIRST TROLLEY"
How the Name, Now In Universal Use,
Came to Be Applied to Electrical
Apparatus.

Most persons who use the word
trolley" do not know the origin Of
this term, or why this name was given
to the apparatus by which the cleo
tricity is conveyed from an overhead
wire. 81.
Seventy years ago the word was
used to designate "a form of truck
which can be tilted. for carrying rail-
road materials or the like" This Is
the only definition Of the word in a
dictionary of the edition Of 184S.
In an edition Of 1892 three other
definitions are added: I. "A narrow
cart that is pushed by hand or drawn
by an animal" It Is noted that this
meaning OF. the word Is in use In Eng
land, not in the United States. 2. "A
truck from which TIE load is suspend
: ed on some kinds of cranes This
meaning is technical and employed
only in speaking of machinery. 8.
Electric railway. A truck which
travels along the fixed conductors, and
forms a means of connection between
them and a railway car"
1t is easy to see how the primitive
form Of the electric trolley. which
. travels upon the wires, came to re-
ceive its name from its resemblance
to other types Of trolley; and the
name, having been Immediately given
to this primitive form. was naturally
retained when the method Of connec-
ton was changed from little trusk
moving on a wire to mast having at
its end a wheel pressing on the lower

Why tho Belief In Groundhoo.

The annual interest In that non.
existent animal, the grounding, and
his purely mythical appearance on
Feb. 2 in search of his shadow Is
tribute to the cheerful tirelessness Of
American humor In the preparation Of
the same old joke. The probability Is
that in ancient Egypt there was some
sort of marmot or campestral rodent
which may In the Egyptian tongue
have been called the grounding, and
which was impelled to an annual ap-
pearance at about this date by the
rapid increase Of warmth from the
semi-tropical sun. We may imagine
that the condition Of the sky at the
opening Of the month Of February
suggested more rain or less rain to the
Egyptian weather wiser; and as tho
prosperity Of the year was bound up
with the annual freshet it is quito
possible that the behavior Of the Nj
lotto marmot became by association q
weather prophecy.-Boston Transcript.

How Lannns Warn Miners.

The standard type Of miners lamp
has been improved by an Austrian
mining engineer so that 1t acts as an

HAS HELD BACK PROGRESS
Why Coffee May Be Considered Both
40 4 Blessing and Curse
to Guatemala.

Guatemala, which has been econOm-
ically and in a military sense one Of
the most powerful Of the five Central
American states ever since IT. was the
seat Of the old Spanish viceroyal gov
eminent for the entire region, is a
country both blessed and cursed by
coffee.
Coffee Is a blessing to Guatemala in
that it has brought much money into
the country and has made the planta-
tion-owning class exceedingly pros
porous.
Coffee, too, may be considered in q
sense q curse to Guatemala because
its production dominates every other
activity in the republic, and is the In
direct reason therefore for failure to
develop most Of the country's other
resources.
Though the plateau country Of the
southwest apparently could be made
to produce wheat. -four Is imported. A
number Of other food products that
could be produced are also brought In
from outside.
Cotton could be grown on large
areas but only comparatively small
amount is produced. The greater part
of the cotton cloth and yarn needed
is imported. The raising Of cattle and
sheep, the growing Of almost all trOp-
ical, semi-tropical, and temperate zone
fruits, and mining, are all industries
that could be developed most profit
ably.

HOW.
CITY or CAIRo, ILLINOIS,

CITY OF CAIRO, ILLINOIS,
GOT IT'S EGYPTIAN NAME
Why Is Illinois most southern
city named Cairo, while various
other nearby points bark back
to the land Of the Nile, and why
Is the whole southern part of
the state popularity known as
''Egypt?"
The story Of how Cairo, stand
ing Importantly at the junction
Of the Mississippi and the Ohio
rivers, came to acquire Its name
Is more than 100 years old. Judge
John NJ. Lansden Of that city,
who has written a History OF
Cairo" recalled 1t. At that early
date Kaskaskia was the capital
Of the Illinois territory.
"Cairo was planned at Kas-
4 kaskia in 1871" said Judge
Lansden, land a charter was
granted its promoters or incOr-
porators by the territorial leg
: islature January 9, 1918, almost
q. year before the state was .ad-
United into the Union. They re-
garded the junction of the riv.
ers here as a grand site for a
great city and thought it re-
sembled the site Of Cairo on the
Nile, and hence their use of Its
name for their proposed city.
= "Such was the origin of, the
name and there followed 1t at
distant intervals the towns or
villages, all within thirty miles.
Of the Egyptian names Of Alex
andria, Thebes. Dongola and
Karnak. Cairo may be rightly
said to have given them their
names. Alexandria ceased to
exist long years ago.
1.-THE name Egypt as applied
to southern Illinois is tradition
al only. It and all the other
names followed Cairo In order
Of time, and It may be Cairo
had something to do with ap-
plying the name to this part of
the state, but the better account
is the long-accepted story Of 60
ing down into Egypt for corn,
as did Joseph's brethren many
/ centuries ago." ers.ss,s 81.

Many tons Of gold fish have been
caught in the fishing grounds OF the
Portage river at Port Clinton. O.. by
local fishermen, during the last few
weeks. Where these fish come from
is a mystery, although they have been
seen in this section before. but never
In such large quantities..
According to some Of the fishermen
the scattering of the fish was found
in 1913, after the big floods. Of Ohio
and the lake regions, and 1t was
thought at that time that the fish may
have been liberated from some of the
park and resort aquariums. by the
overnowing of the flooded artificial
ponds.
The drst fish were found IN small
numbers at intervals by the fisher
men who had their nets In Lake Erie,
and an occasional one would be brought
ashore as q curiosity. Later the fish
found their way to the marshes and
inland waters Of the fishing grounds
Of the Portage river, and 1t has been
only during the last few months that
they have been caught in such large
quantities.
Hauls of from a ton to ton ana
a half have been reported at single
time by the fishermen who have their
seine grounds for carp fishing, and
these fish have appeared In large
schools, making very interesting
sight when they are being rounded
up for the lifting Of the nets.
Not Glass Bowl Fish.
The fish are not Of the glass bowl
variety, but seem to be more OF
carp species, and will measure several
inches and weigh as much as a half
pound each. They are placed in live
cars and brought here to be loaded In
to express cars and shipped in tanks,
alive, to New York markets, where
they are sold to the retail and whole
sale trade.
Up to this time the local trade has
not INDUCED in the gold fish for a
food product although 1t is said to be
the same. The larger fish have the
features Of carp. with the large
scales. but decided difference in the
coloring. These fish are highly COL
ored in yellow and gold shades. with a
little sprinkling- Of red which makes
them very attractive.
Won't Grow In Jars.
It IS said that some Of these fish
have been placed in glass jars. and
held for some time. but that they did
not take on additional size.
Charles Klingbeil Of the United
States .hatcheries here, is Of the opln-
ion that these fish came from the
aquariums Of Belle Isle and Detroit
during the flood times Of 1918, and that
during these last seven years have
multiplied uptil the shallow waters Of
this vicinity have become Inhabited
by millions of fish.
As the gold fish are adapted to the
warmer waters, they have found the
marshes Of this section desirable quar-
tiers for their summer maneuvers, and
during the winter months they seek
the deeper waters OF the Portage riv-
er, where they are protected from the
ice and the freezing which would con-
front them in the marshes.

How sut.erny'. Wing Photographs.

How euttsrhy's Wing Photographs.
When butterfy's wing is laid for
a considerable length of time upon a
Photographic plate, in a dark room, a
clear image of the wing makes its
appearance upon the plate when the
latter is developed. In general the
images are Of the positive character,
the dark parts of the wing coming out
most strongly, while white portions
make no impression at all upon the
plate. It is the scales of the wing
which exert the Photographic infiu-
ence, since when these are removed
the wing fails to record itself upon the
plate. The removed scales, however,
are found to register on plate.
