FLYER BEHEADS OLD
 SPANIARD AT BARCELONA

London, Dec. 2.-How British airman neatly beheaded a Spaniard and was excused by the local mayor l because he was an old man, any way" is told by the London Evening News on the strength of information received at the Croydon Air Station. This pilot was one of many Brit 1 ish airman who make a speciality of taking up Spaniards for joy rides in and around Madrid and Barcelona. Occasionally, however, the excite meut is too much for the Spaniards and, in their enthusiasm, they crowd on to the arodrome, running toward the spot where they think the machine will land.
 On this occasion the pilot made three attempts to alight, but each time the crowd spread over the ground, making landing impossible.
 Finally, determined to get down to earth somehow, he flew low over the crowd, scattering them beneath him, and managed to find sufficient space whereon to put down his plane.
 Just as he was landing he felt slight bump, and after his machine had come to a standstill, turned round to find that the under-car- riage had struck one of the specta- tors, taking off his head with mathe- nautical exactitude.
 The crowd immediately became hostile and the pilot ran hard to the house of the mayor of the dis trfct. Entering breathlessly he told
 his story, and was closely followed by some of the crowd who related their version of the affair.
 After hearing all sides the mayor turned to the pilot and assured him that everything would be all right.
 He was an old man." said the
 mayor, land would have died very soon, in any case"

Six Arrested
 and Much
 Booze Taken
Gasboat Grabbed at City FlOat-e Front Street Places are Closed
 Two Skagway Men Caught

Juneau, Alaska, December 13.- The seizure of 81 bottles of con- traband whiskey, several gallons of moonshine, one gas boat and the closing of two houses on Front street and the arrest of six persons as the net result of activities of federal and city officials, is reported today by U. s. Marshal Major George D. Beaumont. Those arrested are E. Scatagline and wife, and A. Scatag- line, E. c. Hopen, Bill CrOzier and Matt Sundeen.
 The arrest of Crozier and Sundeen was made this morning at the City float after Deputies Hardy and Car ster, acting as special customs offlc- CTS, boarded the gasboat Emily May and a search had revealed the pres ence of several boxes of whiskey. The boat was immediately seized by Marshal Beaumont under the provi- sions of the Volstead Enforcement Act and the men are held in the federal jail charged with violating the national prohibition act The whiskey found on the boat was of several well known brands, includ- ing Johnny Walker, House of Lords, G. & W. Special and Three Star Hennessey brandy, amounting in all to S1 bottles.
 Headed by Marshal Beaumont and Chief of Police T. E. P. Keegan, sue cessful raids were conducted on two Front street houses last night by federal and city offices. The first was made on 99 Front street about 6 D. m. on information furnished Chief Keegan by Jim Fox, 9 Doug las Indian, who made a affidavit that on December 10 he had pur- chased whiskey there. A quantity of moonshine is reported to have been seized. The three CantagIines were arrested, but later released on bonds of $500 each.
 Later in the evening the same group of officials raided the Golden North Pool Room, finding, it is re- ported, several bottles of moon shine and a pitcher containing more of the same beverage. The bottles were found in the coal bin in the rear of the pool room. E. C. HOpen was arrested as a result of the latter raid. Both places were closed up at the order of Marshal Beaumont

MORE ABOUT GOVERNMENT STEAMERS

Those who propose the establishment of Govern ment line of steamers to Seward and Anchorage from the States should consider carefully the effect such a line would have intra-Territorial commerce. It is likely that privately owned steamships would not operate to those ports. at least in competition with government vessels That would that there would be no regular transportation lines between them and the other points in Alaska ports call of Government steamers st .t }-e.f'.5s 5s.
 One of the most important matters in connection with be trade and traffic and development of Alaska is suitable transportation facilities between Alaskan ports That not be interfered with If the Govern ment goes into the transportation business in Alaska it should provide to for all of the traffic that offers. It should decide whether not 1t IS desreable all the water transportation facili ties in Alaskan waters Government owned whether it all shall be privately owned. Otherwise the sua- ton would very likely be made by the Govern ment's entrance it.
