The financial arrange ments are agreed upon before the marriage.
 One young man who accepted much older woman as wife after she had assured him she had money to support them, brought suit for di- vorce, alleging he had been dec aived and that the woman really had very little money. The woman admitted she had misrepresented her income, but declared she felt justified be- cause of the lonely life she had been living, with no opportunity to become acquainted with marriageable men.

RULING HANDED
 DOWN BY JUDGE REED THIS 4. M.
Rules Ciovanetti Search War rant Invalid = Upholds
 Second Warrant.

In a decision handed down this by Judge T. M. Reed, the search war rant on which the case against J. NJ. Govianetti was declared illegal and the articles seized hereunder, it was held, could not be used in any action that might be pending against the defendant. Judge Reed at the same time upheld the validity of the war rant used in the search of the San Francisco Bakery and denied the pc tition in that case for a return of personal property.
 Judge Reeds decision held that the warrant must name some person, which was not the case in the Gio- vanetti matter. The proceeding, he said was not in rem against the contraband articles seized, but against the alleged owner of such contraband possessions. Giovanetti was not charged with any crime in the search warrant.
 Hellenthal & Hellenthal appeared for the defendants in both of the above cases. which were carried fro n the U. s. Commissioners Court on appeal on matters of law affecting the validity of the search warrants to the District Court

Cheatham agreed that work on certain projects would be greatly enlarged Locally the Juneau-Eagle River road will be greatly benefited by increased all lotHents.

Other projects located in the vicinity of Ketchikan, Hyder, Cor 6ova, Seward and other towns ad- iacent to National Forest Reserves will receive ncreasedallotments from the new funds.
 May Let Contracts.
 The provision of the Federal Highway Act require that all road building which costs in excess of 5000 per mile must be let out on contracts unless bids for such work are considered excessive MT. Cheat ham said that it was thus possible that, instead of e,.:>rging his pres ent organipation to handle all the new work by day labor, a goodly portion of it would be given indi- vidual contractors.
 It is expected that definite pro- gram for the work of next season will be announced within a few days.

 Area of Reserves.
 ''Of course, Alaska receives this money by reason of the fact that it has National Forests within it's boundaries The total area of these reserves in the Territory is 20,713, 204 acres. Of this the Tongass For est contains 15, ,4S1, ,000 acres and the Chugach Forest the remainder. By far the greater part of the timber resources is contained in Tongass Forest in South eastern Alaska which has 70,000,00 ,000 feet, board meas ure, out of a total of 77,560, 900, 900 feet for both forests.

 The new funds will be expended under the direction of the Bureau Of Public Roads, of which c. w..

The funds, while available next season, it was stated, will remain so until 1925 unless ex- pended earlier and thus do not have to be refunded into the Treasury of the United States at the end of next season if not expended.
