MATERIAL REDUCTION INSUM RELOCATED
 ALASKA COl.LEGE
REVISED FISH TAX BILL CARRIES MATERIAL REDUCTION IN
 COMMITTEE REPORT
(By Special CorrespondenD

JUNEAU, Alaska, Apr 30.-In the revised appropriations measure re- ported Saturday only two important changes were made. The appropria- tion for the Alaska college was cut to $11S,SOO, and the Alaska Fish con- mission appropriation was raised to s56,5OO.
 The revised fish tax bill was report ed carrying the following altered sat- mon pack rates: On reds, kings, and sockeyes counted together, ba- ditional taxes on all cases in excess of 25,000 and not more than 40,OO0, five cents; 10000 to 50,OOO, ten cents additional; 5O,000 to 60000, fifteen cents per case additiOnal; in excess of 60,000 cases, twenty cents per case. Medium reds including all varieties except chums, three and one-half cents per case, and on packs graduated as above, two, four, six and eight and Oue-udll CculS per CdSc chums, three cents straight.
 The mining schedule was unchang- ed from the rate first announced sey- eral days ago, but the committee was unable to agree on the measure and Chairman Ross announced that the mining schedule would have to be in serted by the House.
 Without a dissenting vote the Sen ate passed the Ayers revision of the Workmen's Compensation Act of 1915 covering every industry and business employing five or more persons eX- cept agriculture, dairying, domestic service and railroads operating as common carriers. It is predicted this bill will pass the House.
 The Foster memorial asking Con- gress to amend the organic act to en- able the Territorial legislature to pass a law requiring voters to read and write the English language was lost on a tie vote in the Senate, Adrich, Brown, Dunn and Snodgrass voting against it.
 Fosters bill providing a refund of $3O by the Territory to incorporated towns for each pupil attending school from outside the district, passed the Senate.
 A fight on the Alaska College ap- prOpriation was forecasted when tue House Education committee reported favorably on the bill carrying an item of $45,000 for the college, while orig inal estimates for s1S2,6OO in the gen. eral appropriations bill were cut in the ways and means committee to less than $120,0OO. It is expected the fight will be carried to the floor of the House today.

SEN. KNUTE: NELSON DIES ON TRAIN ON
 HIS WAY HOME
VENERABLE REPUBLICAN STAES. MAN CALLED BY DEATH AT
 HEIGHT OF CAREER

HARRISBURG, Pa, Apr. 30.-Sena- tor Knute Nelson, Republican, of Alexandria, Minnesota, died aboard a Pennsylvania railway train last taight while on his way from Washing ton to his home in Minnesota.
 His death was entirely unexpected as he had been feeling unusually well since Congress adjourned, and was on his way home to lay his plans for reelection.
 Knute Nelson was born in Norway February 2, 1S43; came to the United States in July, 1S49, and resided in Chicago until 1850, when he removed to Wisconsin, and from there to Min nesota in July, 1871. He was private and noncommissioned officer in the Fourth Wisconsin regiment during the Civil War, and was wounded and taken prisoner at Port Hudson, La, June II, 1868; was admitted to the bar in the spring of 1S67 was mem- Der of the assembly in the Wisconsin Legislature in 1868 and 1862 was county attorney of Douglas County, Minnesota, in 1SS72, 1873, and 1874; was State senator in 1875, 1876, 1877, and 1878; was presidential elector i'll 1880; was a member of the board ol regents of the State university from February l, 1882, to January l, 1855; was a member of the Forty eighth, Forty ninth and Fiftieth Congresses for the fifth district of Minnesota; was elected governor of Minnesota in the fall of 1892 and reelected in the fall of 1894; was elected U. 5. sena- tor for Minnesota January 23, 1895, for the term commencing March i, 1895; reflected in 1901, 1907, and 1913. Again reelected by a majority of nearly 10000 on the 5th of Novem- Der, 1918 for the term ending March i, 1924.
 The death of Senator Nelson is al ready arousing speculation as to how the republican majority in the next Senate will be affected

SPECTACULAR SCENE IN
 RAGING GALE AT SEA

What is described as one of the most spectacular scenes to be wit messed on North Pacific waters for many years was related by return ing passengers on the steamer Starr this morning, who tell of the aid ex- tended by the Starr during high gale to the sailing vessel Tonawanda while off the coast near Chignik. It is related that the Starr shortly after leaving Chignik observed the Tona- wanda and the tug towing it appar- ently helpless in the teeth of gale and rapidly going shoreward with the wind Speeding the aid of the tug a line was passed aboard and the Starr exerted herself in bringing both to safety in Chignik harbor.
 Spectacular in this dangerous work were the actions of the sailors of the Tonawanda who were aloft most of the time slowing the sails, the lash ings at times coming loose and the sails being in danger of being blown from the boltropes. Those who have followed the sea for some time state that while the element of danger was present to a great extent, the marine effect was one that could not easily be forgotten.
 The Tonawanda is owned by the Columbia River Packing company and was loaded with supplies for the Chig- nix plant.

DEDICATION FUNCTION
 WAS SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR

The dedication and anniversary ', l. O. o. F., held last Saturday even- ing in the new dancing annex of the hall may be considered to have been one of the most successful events ever held in Seward. The hall was packed by those who attended the in vitation of the lodge to be present at the dedication and to those in charge of the event much praise is due for their arrangements for entertaining the friends of the order.
 Preceding the opening numbers of the program Cal M. Brosius gave a brief outline of the Lodges inception j; of how in the summer of 1915 the Odd Fellows club was formed, which in the spring of 1916 eliminated into a permanent organization, the meeting for that purpose being held in the old Pioneers Hall at the foot of Fourth avenue. On the completion of the organization the meeting place was changed to the Van Glider hall. In the summer of 1917 the present site of the lodge building was purchased and on April 26, 1918, was laid the corner stone, commemOrating the erection of the temple. In September 1918, the first meeting of the lodge was held in their new home. Thru out the upbuilding of the organization many difficulties had to be overcome, chiefly through the distress felt on account of the world war. Those in charge of the project displayed ex- ceeding finesse in the discharge of their duties and today there stands as a monument to their effOts build ing which would do proud to any ci large. or small. The cost of the build ing has exceeded $2O,OOO and of this amount all but minor portion has been paid. In concluding his short address, MT. Brosius sincerely thank ed the people of Seward for the SUD- port rendered during the trying days, and of which thanks the social func- tion was the outcome. At the con- clusion of the remarks the following program was given:
 Solo, Miss Agnes Anderson, "His Buttons Are Marked U. S."
 Solo, Mrs. Ira Bailey, Out Where the West Begins"
 Speciality, Mrs. Earl Reed, rope spinning.
 The entertainment features were worthy of more than passing con- ment, showing that talent, even in a minor quantity, is available in Sew ard at the conclusion of the pro- gram dancing was indulged in until midnight, after which a most delecta- ble luncheon was served in the upper hall.

U. $. SUPREME COURT HOLD LIQUOR GAN BE
 SOLD 0N SHIPS 4 DAUGHERTY'S ORDER REVERSED BY VENERABLE BODY AT
 NATIONAL CAPITAL

WASHINGTON, Apr. 3O-The Su- preme Court today overruled Attor- ney General Daugherty's order against the sale of liquor on American ships in the overseas trade, holding that the prohibition amendment could not le- gally be applied to prevent American ships from selling beverages when they are outside American territori- al waters.
 The court however, held that the ban against both American and for eign ships from bringing liquor stocks into American ports under bond was legal and enforceable.
