MAKE ATTEMPT MOVE CAPITAL
 FROM JUNEAU

ANCHORAGE, Feb. 16. - At the coming session of the Alaska legisla- ture a fight for moving the capital to point farther west will be launched by members of the Third and Fourth divisions, backed by support from several members from the Sec ond, politicians announce here
 With the construction of the Alaska railroad the center of population has gradually swung westward. In few wears, it is expected, the bulk of the population will be located between Fairbanks on the north and Seward on the south. Ninety per cent of the taxable wealth and population is em- braced in an area confined by the Yukon on the north, the Richardson highway on the east and the coast on the south, including Cook Inlet and the Aleutian peninsula.
 Situated in this region also is the wheat belt of Alaska and at the rate
  the center of wealth will soon be along the railroad.
 An alternative proposition will be presented to the legislature on the question of the location of the capl- tai Tn the event of not being able to secure more central location, it is planned to seek division of the Ter ritory along the 146th meridian of longitude, including Cordova and all that region west in the new Territory and allowing the panhandle of Alas ka to form the old Territory with the capital at Juneau.
 At present the burden of opinion favors Seward as the new capital and all of the southwest is expected to back the terminal city in it's claim.

 LOS ANGELES CHURCH

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 16.,-,The new First Methodist Episcopal Church here is awaiting the arrival from New York of three mosaic panels, said by artists and critics to es- tablish a precedent for handling and color The panels, the work of Louis c. Tiffany of New York, are eight by seventeen feet and inter- pret, pictorialy, the hymn. ere Deum Laudamus.'
 These fine panels, it is said. diff fer from anything yet produced in mosaics in that they are executed entirely of iridescent glass, which possesses a luminosity and radiation previously unknown in mosaics. The placing of mosaic panels in a Meth odist Episcopal Church is said to be an innovation.

WANT JAPANESE STEEL WORKS
 UNIFIED

TOKYO, Feb. 16.-The unification of the iron and steel industry long has been a subject of discussion and many people interested ill the enterprise have been steadily work ing for the realization of the scheme. The councillors of the Iron and Steel Association recently passed reso- lution advocating a thorough unifi- cation of the industry and presented the resolution to the Government.
 After dwelling On the important nature of the industry for the pur- pose of national defense the resOlu- tion goes on to say that the demand for iron and steel in the country is yearly increasing, bringing about a proportionate increase in the inn port of these goods and that if their import is not confined to proper limits the future of the domestic industry will be seriously compro- missed.
 As things stand at present, the resolution states, private concerns are engaged in one branch or other of the industry and lack 2 thorough cooperation in the manufacture of pig iron and of steel and steel ma terials. The Government steel works, it is pointed out, are conducted on gigantic scale with the inevitable tendency that the official enterprise is always bringing pressure to bear upon private efforts.
 So long as this state of affairs obtains no real development Of the industry cen be expected. The anal gamation of private iron and steel making concerns will be meaningless if the Government steel works at Yawata is left out of account. For this reason the resolution urges the Government to take this phase of the question into careful consider ation and to map out a fundamental plan of unification of the iron and steel industry in the country, so that the Government enterprise and pri- vate concerns may be merged into comprehensive whole.

AUSTRIA RETURNS
 NAPOLEON TROPHIES

VIENNA, Feb. 16.-The crown the sceptre, the seal of state, the mar shalTs baton and the mantle, al: used by Napoleon I at his coronation at Milan on May 26, 1906, have been surrendered by Austria to Italy in accordance with a clause of the treaty of St. Germain. The house of Hapsburg became possessed of these trophies in Italy and carried them off to Vienna in 1S48, since when their return has more than once been urged by Italy, but with out success.
 Of the gold-gilt crown, surmounted by a cross and richly irlaid with mother of pearl and paste stones, it will be recalled that Napoleon set it on his own head eXclaiming: God has bestowed it on me; wee to who- ever attempts to touch it." The one Sleeved coronation robe of green vel vet trimmed with ermiDe and em- broidered in gold and silver lace, in which in gold leaves of clover Napoleons initials recur a hundred times, always has been regarded as perhaps the most magnificent robe ever worn by monarch at his cor onation.
 It was with many regrets that the release of these objects was pro- nounced by the National Assembly here.

WIFI. ASSIST MOTHERS
 IN PURCHASING HOMES

SPOKANE, Feb. 16.-Appropriation of $5,000 for the establishment and maintenance of an association to aid recipients of mothers pensions in buying their own homes has just been announced by the Board Of County Commissioners of Spokane County. The fund is for the use of recipients of mothers pensions in Spokane County.
 The resolution passed by the com missioners stated that the purposes of the Mothers Home Association, to whom the appropriation was granted, are to provide homes for the recipients of mothers pensions and to enable mothers to buy homes with these pensions. According to D. T. Ham, chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, Superior Court Judge R. M. Webster, as head of the juvenile court, will di- rect the affairs of the assiclatlon.
 'The whole thing said Commls- sions Ham, in explaining the com missioners' action, "is to aid mothers who receive pensions in buying little homes of their own instead of paying rent. We set aside the $5,O00, which, for instance, will buy 10 homes at $500 each Then, if the mothers have been paying $10 or $15 month rent, we hold that amount out or their pensions and they pay for their home at that rate. Then, as the'r homes are paid for, they get their full pensions again.
