A crowd of 290 people out for a good time. hospitable hosts, some hing doing every minute, and the whole topped off with the environ ment of attractive decorations, out starl'ng in a blaze of lights, and good jazz stirring music, made the entertainment put on last evening al ElkB' Hall by the Southeastern AZ aska Shrine Club, complimentary b the B. P. o. Elks, one of the crown irg scc.al events of the winter seq sen The affair was under the super vision of the executive committee of the Shrine Club and was voted by the guests to be one of the best ever put on by he club
 Entertainment was provided b please every guest. The early part of the evening was devoted to cards, the tables being on the third floor, while a number of the guests en- joyed bowling in the alleys. At 9:15 o'clock dancing commenced and con tinued until 1 o'clock. the card players joining the dancers about 10 o'clock.
 The prizes at cards were won as follows.
 The first ladies prize for high score was won by Mrs Jack Helen thai; Mrs Grover Vim won the first gentleman's' prize, there not being enough men to fill out male places at the tables.
 Mrs. John A. Borges won the prize for having the lowest score among the ladies. and William Paul won he prize for the gentleman having the lowest score.
 The dance hall was attractive ir the colors and emblems of the Mystic Shrine. The huge Shrine emblem omblazoned in colored lights, was suspended from the ceiling in the center of the stage. During one dance the orchestra was assisted by three new members-George D. Beau 1 mont, on the xylophone, and jazz whistle; Jack Davis, on the violin and Dolly Gray on the bass horn The weird sounds produced by thil combination and the antics of thc performers sent the guests into galei | of laughter and added the fina touch of carefree enjoyment to tn, evening.

 The fire boys today went around quietly and secured promises from every attorney in Juneau to act in defense of the show. appear in court if legal action is taken, which seems absolutely possible. It now appears that if the case is taken before Judge Reed, it will be against the fire boys by the United States gov ernment.

MINSTREL SHOW JOKES CAUSING
 SERIOUS TIME
Board of Censors Attempts to Restrain Certain Lines
 from Being Spoken.

Last night a self-aHpointed board of censcrs swooped down on the re- hearsal of the end men or the min strel show to be given next week at the Coliseum Theatre for the benefit of the local playgrounds and attempted to create stampede as regards about 20 of the jokes which are to be sprung.
 The recent announcement that civic matters. the legislature, pro hibition and other topics are to be treated "rough-house" caused some excitement amc~g a certain eleW ent in Juneau; and it is understoodOhat following a meeting of the element, board of censors was appointed to give the jokes the "once over.'
 When the board of censors ar- rived at the fire hall last night, where the end men and the inter- 'ecutor were rehearsing, and stated he purpose of the attendance, near riot resulted. < The board of censors members were kindly but emphatically told 10 "get out" In just as equally an emphatic manner they came back with the abrupt announcement they would not"
 As two women were on the board of censors, the men members were safely protected from assault all though for a minute or so it looked as if there would be hot time.
 Jokes Are Sprung.
 Finally Dolly Gray, Chief of the Department, and Harry Sperling, who is mainly responsible for all of he jokes and business, decided that f the board of censors could stand Inc "razzin to be given, the end men would give it to them. The okes. for the most part were sprung Objections to many of them flew fast and furious from the board of cen 9ors The board thought certain things were being handled altogether too harshly although the jokes were If the kind that could be sprung in he best of society.
 The board protested and protested he end men said it was too late to make any changes. The board in- sisted, argued. wrangled, and then one of the female members of the beard, with all of the sarcaism in her system, advised that her com 9anicns leave the rehearsal and f there was not a change of heart on the part of the end men and the management of the minstrel show, the entire matter might be referred to the court on Profanity Hill or to Prosecuting Attorney Shoup for legal steps.

 MT. Ligon arrived at Ketchikan Alaska, with MT. Walker the eve. ming of October 23rd The first few days were spent in general recon naissance of the region, folowine which trapping was undertaken in a small way on Etoln, zarembo and kupraenoff and kuiu Islands. Mr Ligon pointed out that the work was rot undertaken with the expectation or intention that he would kill any great number of wolves. but rather that the plan was to study Alaska fconditions and determine. by ex iperimenting. the best methods, and teach parties who wished to learn such methods.
 According to Mir. Ligon, there i, no region having greater need fol predatory animal control than Alas ka, because of the great value of hel game and fur. both of which are mcnaced by the wolves He ha. been much impressed by the grea importance of the game and fur O the region. for. he observed, prac tically all tho lands thst have com, under his observation are praetlcall, useless for other than the game fur, timber, and as watersheds fo fish streams.
