BAIT PLENTIFUL
 IN ALASKA FOR
 FISHING BOATS
Canadian Orders in Council Not Serious Matter Is
 the Local Belief.

The Canadian orders in council prohibiting the sale of bait to fish ing vessels not bringing their catches to Canadian ports need not worry any fisherman as bait can be secured in Alaskan ports to meet all demands of the fishing fleet in the opinion of cold storage people and others familiar with the situation. Locally it is believed that even i; the orders are designed to create an adverse sentiment in Congress against the Poindexter tariff amend ment the weakness of the move is so transparent it will fail to ac- complish its purpose.
 Information of the orders men tioned above was received here yes terday in an Associated Press des- bach to The Empire. When shown a copy of it, Oliver Orange. man ager of the Juneau Cold Storage Company, said that at this time of the year bait was procurable at almost any point close to the fish ing banks. In the winter months, he said, the vessels require a large amount of frozen herring for bait which is drawn from the cold storage plants generally where the fisher men sell their catches.

Not Affect Industry.

MT. Orange, while he is apparent ly not favorably impressed with the Poindexter amendment and is in clined to believe that it will not produce the desired results, said that shutting off Canadian bait sup plies was not serious matter Without some notice, he admitted Alaska freezers might find it diff cult to supply all the fishermen with bait if the demand were made un- expectedly during the winter months. but with the 90-day notice provided by the measure no such difficulty would be encountered. There are a number of places in Southeastern Alaska onythe route to the fishing grounds where bait sup plies can be obtained.
 Would Upbuild Industry.
 The logical effect of the orders of the Canadian Council, it was pointed out by U s. Attorney A. G. industry in Alaska as an increased demand for bait would make a larger market for the herring fish ermen operating in the Territory. Most of the boats selling their catches at Prince Rupert, he said. at present get their bait there but do so as a matter of convenience and not of necessity. If no Ameri- can boats take their catches to Prince Rupert. which is the intent of the Poindexter amendment, he added, there will be no need of buy ing bait there and they will not want to do SO He also pointed out, as did MT. Orange, that herring are obtainable at many Southeastern Alaska points and the frozen stocks can be built up to take care of any demands.

Escobar Is Effective as
Santuzza i'm ''Cavalleria''
Mexican Soprano PIeases With
San Carlo Company; Famadas
Sings in s.Pagliacci''

Marie Luisa Escobar, Mexican go
prano, appeared as Santuzza In Mas
cagni's "Cavalleria Rusticana" for the
first time in New York last evening
with the San Carlo Company at the
Century Theater. It was Nine. Es-
cobar's second appearance here. In
May, 1921, she sang the title role Of
aida" at the Metropolitan Opera
House at a special Masonic club per-
formance, when Miss Muzio, who had
been announced, suddenly became in
disposed. Another member of the San
Carlo Opera Company, the tenor Tom
masini, also appeared on that occa-
sion, substituting for Morgan Kings
ton.
Nine. Escobar was more than salts
factory Santuzza. Her voice, luscious
in quality, was used with dramatic
cloquences and the vchemence of her
acting lent conviction to the rural
tragedy. The Mexican singer was par
ticularly effective in her scenes with
Turridu and Alto, and in the former
she found congenial support in Mr..
Barra.
In 'Pagliacci," the usual companion
of Mascagni's little opera, Mr. Fam
adas sang the role of Canio for the
first time here and acquitted himself
with fcrvor and conscientiousness.
Nine. Charlebois, pleasantly remem-
bored from other seasons, made her
first appearance of the year as Media.
Mr.. Vale was conventional Tonic.

credits him with the stage direction
Sammy Timberg helped out with the
music. lie plays the piano and takes
part in several scenes. Hattie (Tim-

the violin cnerget cally.
A lyrical prologue bruts the word
that what is to follow is something
entirely new. What fellows is scarcely
new Young, perhaps, but not new.
There are dozen or so scenes built
on recognizable lines. Herman Tim
berg makes fun by talking to the or
chestra leader. Members OF the chorus
do limitations Of leading comics. There
is q big dancing number on roller
skates, and a procession of the athletic
girls Of all games.
The dance number is of the apache
genre, Else and Paulen do some or
elastic skating, executing furious evo-
lutions in an outdoor cafe. The time
is winter, the place northern France.
Buck and Bubbles, negro Mutt and

The undesirable alien section Of the
deportation law was very nearly put
into effect against o bird when a par
rot, named Loritto, reached these parts
yesterday on board the Vasari, Of the
Lamport & Holt Line.
"Go to helll want a drink Of

traveller greeted the customs officials
who started to examine him, adding q
few choice epithets in Spanish
Since customs officials are unaccus-
toned TO having any one tell them quite
50 outspokenly where to go and since
they are utterly unused to having any
returning travellers talk about just that
kind of a drink, there was some debate
about whether the bird would make y
desirable citizen of these United States.

birds owner, Mrs. Stanley Allen, was
