CUTTING AFFRAY OCCURS
 LATOUCHE: MESS HOUSE

What might have been a fatal affray is reported to have taken place at Latouche last week, according to news received today on the North western, the participants being Ralph Ruiz and Wm. kodsazoff, both of whom are in jail at Valdez serving 60 and 30 days respectively.
 The affray grew out of card game. Both the men had just come off shift and found a game going in the bunk house. kosazoff took seat at the ta- ble, but did not play. Ruiz requested him to get up and permit him to play, fo which Kodsazoff returned gruff refusal. Some time later Ruiz again requested the seat, and this time kod- sazoff called him vile name and roughly showed him across the room and to the floor
 On arising Ruiz drew his pocket knife holding it open in one hand while he walked up and slapped kod- sazoff in the face. At this time one of the bystanders seized Ruiz and pushed him back into a chair. While in this position Kodsazoff arose and reaching over the shoulders of the man holding Ruiz he seized Ruiz by the neck and commenced choking him. With the open knife Ruiz struck at his asailant inflicting a severe cut in one of Kodsazoff's arms and slight flesh wound in his body. The wound in Kodsazoff's arm was seri- ous one as it severed an artery, but prompt application of tourniquet by one of the bystanders stopped the flow of blood until he could be taken to the hospital for treatment.
 Both men were taken before Com missioner Presley Ruiz charged with assault with a dangerous weapon got 60 days and Kodsazoff, charged with simple assault, got 30 days in jail.

John wrote the Book of Revelation 1t

sands of pilgrims. and in the old days
the rich man who wished 10 eXpiate
his sins usually did so by building a
church. The result is that this tiny
island contains the ruins of no fewer
than 300 churches.
The entire population numbers about
4.OOS, and II is considerably larger
now than IL was when most OF the
buildings were founded. AS there are
only 200 houses on the island there
is almost a church for each two fam
lilies.
The people are Greeks. whose only
occupation is sponge fishing, though
there used at one time TO be a trade
I'm the manufacture Of stockings.
Curiously enough. though the island
lies quite close 10 Turkey. there has
never nj any time been a mosque upon

not find room for one.
