FIRST SAIL BOAT PASSES
 THROUGH PANAMA CANAL

BALBOA HEIGHTS, Canal Zone. May 26-An 18-foor canoe flying a main sail and a jib, enjoys the distinction of being the first sail ing craft of any description to pass through the Panama Canal under the power of her canvas.
 The little vessel, manned by Lieut. enant Miller, of the L. s. Navy, and H. J. Grieser, swimming instructor who had previously rowed, padded and piloted a motor boat through the canal, started at Cristobal, on the Atlantic side of the cut, at 9. m., and docked the same evening al Balboa, on the Pacific. at 8:45.
 The frail craft squeezed her way into the great locks alongside of huge steel freighters was raised or lowered to the level of the next lock, and passed on to repeat the process until she had negotiated the entire system. The tolls were 72 cents. ....:~ ...

More Troops Needed

TIENTSIN, May 26-There are barely three thousand foreign troops exclusive of Japanese, available in this neighborhood. which Is the for eign military headquarters of Nor tAern China. This force Is consld- cred inadequate for move against the ten thouand bandits in Shan tung province and no acton will be taken except in case of an em- ergency. The foreign soldiers iE- clude 1000 Americans, 900 Bri- tish soldiers. 1000 French and small detachments of foreign marines ard volunteers. T. is the concensus of opinion that it would be inadvisable to use this force against the bar dits except as a last resort. Mill tary action may De taken, however, by rhe foreign authorities of the problem of the release of the cap tives is reduced to a choice be tween death of the prisoners by disease or death at the hands of the bandits. ..........

RIVER DAM SAVES YEARLY
 ITS COST OF CONSTRUCTION

kEOKUk, La, May 26-Six mil lion tons of coal are saved annually by the operation of the Keokuk dam in the Mississippi river here, according to an estimate by the op- orators of the dam.
 Power hidden under the surface of the Mississippi and harnessed by the dam is lighting stores and run ming street cars in ST. Louis and a great many smaller towns in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri. Miles upon miles of cables and conduits run out from the dam in almost every di- rection.
 Accepting the average price of coal, it can readily be seen that the saving in one year of this fuel would more than pay for the entire cost of the dam, which was placed at s29,OO0,OOO in 1918, when t was completed.

FRENCH CLERKS DENIUNCE
 INCREASING COST OF FOOD

PARIS. May 26-The employees of the apartment stores in Paris are today making loud demands for more pay. They say the cost Of liv- ing has advanced three-fold since 1919. Their main complaint Is in the matter of food, and the gov ernment has intervened by trying to regulate the price of bread.
 The department stores had a les son not long ago when they ad- vanced the price of clothing. French women simply did not buy dresses when prices scared beyond their reach. The store proprietors be- ban to lose money, and thus were compelled to scale down their pric- es.
 But 1t is easier for the people to dispense with new clothes than with food, so the violent protests of today against the cost of sus- tenance are not surprising.

cHIROPRACTOR BILL DEAD;
 GOVERNOR FAILED TO. SIGN

Lacking the signature O. Gov ernor Bone. Senate Bill No. 98, after living for three days as an incipient law, died without issue With it perished the proposed re- gulation licensing and recognition of chiropracty and Board Of Chiroprac- tic Examiners.
 The bill passed the Senate with out opposition although its support was never more than luke-warm. In the House 1t was met with some opposition, but was put through by the efforts of Representative Frank H. Foster, of Cordova. Dr. H. c. DeVeighne, Territorial Commission CT appeared in opposition to the measure in a House hearing.
 The measure was sent to the Governor shortly before the ad- journment of the legislature. Under the provisions of the Organic Act, when he had not signed it three days after it reached him, it be- came noneffective. With the loss of House Bill No. 6, of which no trace has been found since il went 10 the enrolling and expressing committee of the Senate, and the failure of this bill to gain approval, the laws passed by the Legislature is cut to 1o2.

WHITE PASS INVESTIGATE
 PLAN TO RAISE RIVER LEVEL

Herbert Wheeler, general man ager of the White Pass & Yukon Route Company, passed through Juneau recently returning to his summer headquarters at Skagway for the open season. Accompanying Mr. Wheeler, says The Stroler's Weekly, was J. P. Forde, an engin- eer of Victoria, B. C., who came North for the purpose of investigat- ing the feasibility of constructing Q dam across a narrow neck of water that connects Lake Tagish and lower Lake Marsh at a point about half way between Careross and Whitehorse. .-* .... .~.@. ...: |. The matter Of devising a plan for storing water as an aid 10 upper Yukon river navigation has been under consideration for several years and every spring and fall sees the need of such reserve water. as there are usually about three weeks every spring and fall when naviga- ton Is very difficult if not wholly impossible owing to the low stage of the water. Years age there was strong talk of constructing 9 dam at the head of Miles Canyon, which E five miles south of Whitehorse, but nothing was ever done in the matter. The movement now to con- struct the dam at the foot of Lake Marsh would result in materially raising the waters of Bennett and Mares lakes, of both Big and Little Windy Arm and Of Lake Marsh, which water would be released when the water of Lake Lebarge and of the Thirty mile river is too shallow for other than light draught steam CTS, the larger steamers usually making the first trips of the season between Whitehorse and Dawson with less than half cargo capacities. The same conditions prevail every fall when, owing to shallow water, heavy monetary losses have been many times sustained by Ihe operat- ing company through the wreeking of the steamers.
 Had the dam now under contem- plation been constructed 25 years age il would have been of inestim- able benefit and would have paid for itself many times over and even yet the proposition smacks of good bus iness sense as well as faith in the future of the vast expanse of coun- try to which the upper Yukon river is the natural gateway. 4 month or six weeks added to the period Of navigation on the upper Yukon would materially assist in further ing the interests of mighty inland empire.

EGG SPROUTS LEGS
AND WALKS AWAY

Larry Scmon has accomplished a
feat in making film stunts that has
bafflcd the old timers. The trick is
one that cannot be explained by dou-
bic exposure or any mechanical de-
vice. Even stop camera action will
not account for the uncanny and at
the same time amusing antics Of the
egg which Larry uses in "Thc Count
or Jumper" which will be shown at
Capitol Theatre on Monday.
AS the clerk in store, Larry goes
to get some eggs for customer.
One rolls away and Larry goes after
it. The egg stops, sprouts two hon
cst-to-goodncss legs, not the mcchan-
ical kind; but flesh and blood legs
that pulsate and move. The legs
carry the egg wherever it wants to
go. and something inside the egg di-
reefs it with human intelligence.
Some funny sequences follow in
which the egg cuts up in general,
and then Larry gets swat at it.
The result is the production Of
cute little duckling on the head Of
a man.
