Members of Nile Temple, of the Mystic Shrine. Seattle, are on a pill grimage to Anchorage, being aboard the steamer Northwestern, due in Juneau tomorrow morning. Illus trious Potentate Charles D.

A ceremonial will be held in Anchor, age, Alaska. about August 29, and a class of "sourdoughs" will be shown the difference between a trail across the tundra of Alaska and one across the hot sands of the desert.
 Short stops will be made at Jul neau, Skagway, Cordova, Valdez and Seward, and the order may possibly be conferred at some of these towns. It will take about three weeks to make the round trip. Frank B. Lazier. recorder of Nile Temple, had charge of the arrangements.

Message Received In Juneau from Point Barrow Q

What is believed to be the first message ever received in Juneau from Point Barrow, farthest North settlement on the American continent, was received by M B. Summers, MeteOrologist in charge of the United States Weather Bureau here, this morning. The mes sage was from the weather ob- server at Point Barrow and was dated yesterday
 Mr Summers believes that the message was sent by wire less to Nome from the revenue cutter Bear, which is now at Barrow on it's annual voyage to the Arctic, then relayed by wireless from Nome to Nulato, thence transmitted over the land telegraph line to Valdez and by cable to Juneau. When he was at Point Barrow last summer, said MT Summers, he was told that atmospheric con ditions made it practically inn possible to send radio messages to Nome, although much exper- imenting along that line had been done.

ENGAGEMENT OF
 LOCAL COUPLE
 IS ANNOUNCED
Wedding of H. K. Thiele and Miss Mary Conley to Take
 Place in Spring.

Announcement was made today of the engagement of Miss Mary Con lev and Territorial Surveyor General H. Karl Thiele. The wedding will not take place until Spring as Miss Conley is under contract to take charge of the Government Hospital at Akiak for the coming winter and it is i'm 5o ssible for her to secure a relief owing to the lateness of the season.
 Miss Conley is the daughter of MT and Mrs. John Conley, of Seat tie. She has been connected with the Government hospital work for several years and in charge of sev- eral hospitals in Alaska during that time. She opened the local U. S. Hospital for Natives about six years ago and remained here about IS months. Following that she was for three years in charge of similar institution at Nushagak in the Bris- tol Bay region and last year at Met lakatla. Miss Conley returned here in July for surgical treatment and has been here since that time.
 MT Thiele, who is awaiting his commission before assuming office as Surveyor General and Secretary of Alaska, is an Alaskan of long standing. He was for many years in the Fairbanks district, later go- ing to the lower Yukon and Kusko- kWim river districts He is widely known both in and out of the Ter rtory and has many warm friends all over Alaska.
 Miss Conley will leave in short time for the Interior and assume her duties at Akiak, returning here in the Spring. MT. Thiele, who expects to receive his commission at any time, plans to leave with Col. James C. Steese Thursday for an extended trip through the interior and by the way of the Kuskokwim to Nome.

A fund of $1,000,0O0 deposited in the National City Bank, New York, by the Russian Soviet Gov ernment, has virtually vanished. Jacques Roberto Cibrario, sent to the United States to make pur- chases by the Soviet Government, was arrested in New York recent ly, charged with misappropriating large part of the money. Scarce ly $100,000 of the original fund remains in the bank. Cibrario came to New York in 1919 to buy motion picture projectors and films for the Soviet Committee of Public Education in Moscow Prior to entering the employ of the Russian Government he was $45-aweek clerk. It is alleged that since coming to New York he has been living at the rate of $75,0 a year and maintained magnificent bachelor apartment in an exclusive section of the city.

Mental Health Regained
 Morningside Still Threatens

Under commitment to Morningside Sanitarium as being mentally un- sound, Irene Perino. now declared by physicians to have regained a nor
 nal state of mind. is at St. Ann's Hospital awaiting some action on the part of officials which will release lser from the commitment. As far IS it is known by local Federal of ficials, her case is without precedent in the Territory
 Several weeks ago the woman be- came violently insane and was so declared by physicians and so ad- judged by jury after hearing be- fore U. S. Commissioner H. B. Le- F'evre, who signed the commitment. After the commitment had been signed, she became seriously ill and was removed to the hospital, where a major operation was performed by Dr. H. c. DeVighne The operation was successful and slowly bus surely the woman is said 10 have regained her mental health.
 An effort was made, on affidavit from Dr. DeVighne, affirming her recovery, to have an inquisition into the lunacy proceedings with the re- suit of revoking the commitment Judge LeFevre, after consideration of the matter, held that even though another hearing should be had and the woman declared to be sane, he would be powerless to revoke the original commitment and the woman still liable to confinement to Morn ingside.
 The matter was thus left in the hands of U. s. Marshal J. M. Tanner who declares that he will not be a narty to putting a sane person in Morningside. He has put the matter up to the Attorney General of the United States by telegraph and asked him to unrayel the tangled skein of law so the recovered wo- man may be set legally free.

TRIBUTE PAID
 TO DOMINION
New York Reviews Says Can ada Has Steadily Forged
 Ahead Tn Business.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23,-The his well-balanced development of a great country than has been the case of Canada, says the National City Bank in a survey of conditions in the Do minion.
 With distances so great that only the United States, Russia and Brazil can readily be compared with it, and with natural resources that require the hardest kind of pioneers to bring them to the service of the world, it has steadily forged ahead in working out it's own salvation, until today it is in position to solidly withstand the great strain which the postwar situation has brought on"
 Faced Hard Problem
 The review calls attention to the , fact that Canada has been compelled in the last three years to face an un- precedented series of emonomic prob. lens and declares that the people of the Dominion have met every one of them in spirit that has assured their successful ending
 The survey, which is based on re ports from the banks correspondents throughout the Dominion, declares, ''lt is possible to review the Canad ian situation for the remainder of 1921 and for next year with some as surance."
 Good Crop Prospects
 The prediction of coming prosper ity for Canada is based largely on crop conditions. and incidentally the bank foresees lower living costs for ! the people of the Dominion One of the chief factors in reducing the cost of living in Canada, it is declared will be the United States emergency tariff, which the bank believes will cut down Canadian exports of food stuffs to the United States by from one-half to two-thirds.
 These products, it is asserted, will have to find a market in Canada with resultant lowering of prices tc the Canadian consumer.

Boston specialists are puzzled over the strange case of Harry Shanley, American war veteran, who has an open passage in his head extending from ear to ear. The former soldier can pass as many as fifteen buttons through one ear and out the other. He was in France with the Canadian Army, when a German shell ex- ploded over his head, deafening him. Although his vocal cords remain, physicians have told Shanley he will eventually lose his voice. Shanley can put wad of paper in his mouth and remove the same from either ear. He is being treated at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
