No More "Play" Kings, Queens If
 Herrick Has Say
TRepubIican A. P. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S-Any one impersonating king or a queen in a play, pageant or carnival would be liable to fine of not more than S1O.- 900 and Imprisonment from 10 to 20 years under a bill introduced today by Representative Herrick, Repub- lican of Oklahoma. Similar penalties are proposed for producers who en- gage some one to act like a king or queen.
 In Representative Herrick's opin- ion, those who would disregard his bill. if enacted, would be guilty of fostering and promoting ideas trea- sonable to and in contravention of the principles on which the govern ment of the United States is founded and maintained"
 Among half a dozen other unusual measuers presented by Representa- tive Herrick was a bill designed to fix standardized wages for labor in all vacations and industries" and standardized prices for all kinds of commodities; bill, to fix the price for wheat for the next ten years at from s1-50 to g a bushel and a reso- lution urging the American govern ment to request France to replace colored troops in the occupied area of Germany with white soldiers.

 May 6, 1898 +* commissioned as lieutenant colonel, United States voluntary cavalry. Wood as colonel by my choice.
 May 7-The dalays and stupidity of the ordnance department surpass belief. The quartermaster's depart ment is better but bad. The commis- sary department is good. There is no management whatever in the war de- pertinent. Against a good nation we should be helpless.
 May 21-The blunders and delays of the ordnance bureau surpass be- lief. They express us stuff we don't need, and send us the rifles by slow freight. There is no head, no energy no intelligence in the war department
 May 24-Quota nearly filled. It is astonishing how rapidly we have armed. mounted and drilled these men. Woods power of work and ex- ecutive capacity are wonderful.
 May 30-Railway system tends tS break oown. Interminable delays; no proper facilities for unloading horses to rest, water or feed. etc.

BUREAU ISSUES NEW FUR RULES
 FOR TERRITORY
New Regulations for Protec- ton of Land Furbearing
 Animals Announced.

A complete new set of regulations for the protection of land fur-bearng animals in Alaska issued recently by the Bureau of Biological Survey ana effective September l, have just been made public by Ernest II Walker, chief fur warden of the Bureau in the Territory These regulations con- tain the restoration of open seasons for trapping beaver and marten' which was recently announced by Mr. Walker.
 In Southeastern Alaska the open season on beaver extends from De- cember l to March 31. The season for trapping marten in Southeastern Alaska opens on November 16 in stead of November 6, as was stated previously. and closes on March 3l.
 May Be Temporary
 There has been no open s&son for killing beavers since 1910 Md none for marten since 1916 PriW to the time when closed seasons were es- tablished on these valuable fur-bear- CTS the animals were reported as be- ing rapidly exterminated. In an nouncing restoration of open sea sons, the Bureal of Biological Sur vey stated that it had been conduct ing investigations for the past year with a view of again permitting the killing of beaver and marten where practicable These investigations have shown that while in some few districts beavers and marten are still scarce, in many others they have increased to the extent that no harm will result in allowing them to be killed during at least one season. If after one seasons trapping, it is found that these valuable fur bearers cannot maintain proper numbers the matter of again providing a close season the year round will be con sidered.
 Few Other Changes
 There are a few other changes in the regulations just made public by the bureau. In the first district, embracing Southeastern Alaska and the Aleutian Islands and Alaska Pe- IlISuld, lHc open ScdSOH OH lHuSkTdl extends from December 16 to April 30, instead of to March 31 as here tofore. In district No ?. embracing the mainland and islands from Yaku. tat Bay, Gulf of Alaska. Illiamna Lake and Bristol Bay northward to the headwaters of streams flowing into the Arctic Ocean north of the 68th parallel of north latitude, the open season for taking lynx and fox.
