YOUNGSTERS PUT
 ON BIG PARADE THIS AFTERNOON
Pet Parade Goes Over Big, with Will Lea, Chau-
 tauqua Clown.

Juneau's first clown, ana the first clown to many of the kiddies here, paraded in the streets today leading his company" composed of all the youngsters hereabouts who took part in the Pet Parade, carried out as a part of the Chautauqua program. The youngsters met at the school build ing at 1;30 o'clock this afternoon, all attired in costume and carrying pets from rag doll to cats, dogs and rabbits and shades of a circus, a big white horse, led by his trainer, who scarcely reached above his knee joint.
 The parade started at o'clock from the school and what a riot of color, confusion and fun. Boys and girls alike they came on in a flood of happy laughter and yells, wearing every kind of costume and bright paper caps. aa
 Because of the rain the parade was not held so long as had been planned and the crowd gathered in the Elks Hall shortly before 2:30 o'clock, the free entertainment for the children by the Swiss Yodlers and Will Lea, the Clown, starting shortly after.
 The hall was filled with the young sters and the overture consisted of shouts and falling chairs and caps thrown wildly in the air But with the rising of the curtain the noise was instantly subdued and crowd of fascinated youngsters watched and listened to the acting and singing of the Swiss Yodlers who appeared in native costumes of brilliant and beautiful hue. Will Lea brought forth shouts of laughter but still the youthful audience kept respect full silence to enjoy every minute of the big show and proved beyond doubt the statement made by Miss Mary Chorn, advance agent. when she met the youngsters at the first play-hour early this week, sthat tha.a is not a better crowd of boy. and 1, girls anywhere than right in Jis ,a;i. This morning Will Lea mst tho boys and selected the folloxing six to assist him in his program: Harry Flory, Clarence Dunn. Edmund Mac Kama, Carl Jensen, Wallen Torres. and Walter B. Heisel.
 The winners of the prizes for the most original costumes in the parade will be announced tomorrow

TAKING IS PROHIBITED
 FOR THIS YEAR
Open Season Order Is Sus- pended-No Killing to Be
 Allowed This Winter.


 That there will be no open season Oh beaver this winter is Indicated in telegram received today from k. P. Walker, Agent of the U. s. Biological Survey. Mr. Walker wir- ed from Cordova, where he recently went on official business, saying that killing of beaver this winter is prohibited.
 After several years protection, two years ago the Biological Sur vey issued new regulations permit ting killing of beaver during lim- tied season. In the Aleutian Islands, Alaska Peninsula and neighboring islands. and the Southeastern Alaska mainland and islands. from Yakutat Bay to Dixon Entrance, the season for trapping was between December 1st and March S1st. Tn the rest of the Territory it was fixed between November 18th, and March 31st.
 In the past two seasons large numbers of the animals have been killed. l. Trappers and fur buyers both have reported colonies serious ly diminished. and, according to a statement made by Mr. Walker sev- eral weeks ago, several interested people had suggested resembling the open season regulations and protcc- ton of beaver until they could re- store their. colonies. In some dis tricts. it is reported the animals have been virtually exterminated.
 Open season regulations relating to marten, land. otter and mink, are allowed to remain in force at least for the present.

PLACED HIS BET AND LOST
Waiter Took a Chance, but Evidently
II Did Not Happen to Be He
Lucky Day.

An old darkey waiter had served a
modest but quite perfect lunch to two
elderly and thrifty-looking guests. He
had inquired how each dish suited
their taste. whether 1t had been sea-
soned properly, If 1t was hot enough
or sufficiently chilled. The check was
presented at the close of the meal. 1t
was $3.4O. One of the guests glanced
over 1t and placed So bill on the tray.
The waiter disappeared, all smiles, and
returned with the change-a 81 blu
and 5O-cent piece and dime. He put
the tray at the guests elbow and
waited doubtfully. He watched the
dollar bin slowly withdrawn and then,
after painful pause, the 5O-cent
piece. The tray, with It's lonely dime,
was showed toward him. He picked 1t
up, looked at 1t sadly and gave a long
sigh. "Boss," he said, II gambled and

TOWN cRIER NOT OBSOLETE
Villages Along the Rhine Still Employ
Him as Dispenser of Gen.
eral Information.

The town crier is still an estab-
lished institution In towns and villages
along the Rhine. With drum and bell
he summons the housewives to the
windows and sings his news In
whining monotone:
"Officers of the French forces order
that all lights shall be out at 10
O'Clock. No one allowed on the streets
after that hour. Herr Bingen has re-
ceived a new shipment Of women's
underwear and shawls which he will
sell very cheap. The dollar Is worth
1880 marks to day. One German
killed and two wounded by the enemy
sentries In Essen. Twins were born
at the house of Herr Gortzen, who
lives by the fountain in Bismarck
platz."
The echoes die away down the mar
row streets; the windows and doors
slam; the bell rings again as the old
man plods down the rough pavement
to the next corner where the story IS
sung all over again. And so on until
all the village has heard the news

COL OR IS IMPORTANT FACTOR
Interesting Experiments Have Shown
That Light Paint 10 Best for
ship1 Bottoms.

Some interesting results have been
obtained by ]. Paul visscher In his
study of the fouling Of ships bottoms.
These results Indicate that the color of
the paint used Is an important factor
in determining the amount Of fouling.
Plates painted with different colors
were exposed In sea water at the Beau
fort laboratory and the development Of
the growths was observed over a pc
Rod of several months. The plates
were Identical, except for the color
used, and since all factors influencing
them were the same. 1t may be con-
Guided that any difference In the
amount or the nature Of fouling was
dependent on color. These colors in
clude white, black, yellow, red, green
and blue.
The results show clearly that there
was much more fouling on the dark
plates than on those with lighter col
ors. The contrast between the white
and black plates was especially
marked. Barnacles, which constitute
q large percentage of the total amount
Of fouling, were especially affected by
49,
blue and black plates and were more
abundant on the black. Hydroids were
also practically confined to the dark
plates.
The results are apparently explained
by the fact that at the time OF at
tachment of the larvae to these forms
the organisms are negatively photo
graphic, that is they tend to go away
from the source Of light. This expert
ment Is in accord with observations
made on the growth on ships bottoms
where the densest growths are found
in regions least exposed to light. The
notes and tentative conclusions are at
present based on q limited amount OF
evidence, and 1t Is expected that the
problem will be more thoroughly In
vestigated through experiments IN
which many Of the less-known FACTORS
may be more definitely controlled

PAUL REVERE RIDES AGAIN
Patriotic Observance In Which City 81

In q patriotic observance the city

on the night Of April 18, ITS. Then
on April 10 the ride to Lexington was
repeated by man on horseback,
dressed to resemble Paul Revere, and
who followed the route taken on that
historic occasion. The messenger de-

In spite Of the momentous conse-
quences Of that 18-mile ride In the
Eighteenth century, comparatively few
persons saw Paul Revere as he raced
from hamlet to hamlet to spread the
alarm of the British advance. The
population, Of course, was small; and
besides, the only thing which the light
est sleepers could have seen as they
tumbled from bed was furry of dust
