Carroll Appeals
From Sentence
by United Press Leased Wire

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-Earl
Carroll, theatrical producer. today
filed his appeal from his conviction.
fine and sentence to n wear in pri-
son on charges Of perjury.
The perjury charges grew out of
the party he gave the night Of Feb
ruary 90, at which Joyce Hawley,
model, was alleged to have bathed
unclothed in tub of champagne on
the stage of Carroll s thcater here
while scores looked on.
Carroll based his appeal mainly
on the ground that the court erred
in failing to throw out two counts
of the Indictment involving Miss
Hawley 5 bath and that the grand
jury had no right to investigate the
phase of the case.

ORS. STANDARD

Our reporter caY1ed at the offices Of Drs. Standard and Standard re- gently and was truly surprised to find them so we'll equipped. They have five rooms, very nictly arrang- ed over the Wheeler Drug and Jew elry Company store where Dr. Dan F. Standard and pr. Susie V. Stand ard care for their patrons.
 These two doctors graduated in the. same class at medical college and have practiced together for 20 years.
 Subsequent to graduation, "Dr. Susie" (by which name she is gen. e:ally addressed) did a years post graduate work in the epecialty of Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat work and has since practiced very largeyl in that field of the specialist.
 The doctors have one room fitted entirely with electrical Physiothe- rapy equipment, including: Galvanic Faradic Simusoidal Diathermy, High and Low Frequency, DeArsenval Currents; also Violet and Ultra Violet rays and the new Infra Red ray light that has but recently been adaptd and manufactured for treat ing painful joints, muscles, etc., in Neuritis Arthritis, and Rheuma- tism. The DeArsenval Current is cEe that has si revolutionized the results in the treatment of high blood pressure. The people of Pe- tersburg are fortunate in having a doctors office with such equipment that has been and is usd so extens- ively by the U. s. Government in the hospitals since the World War to such remarkable benefit in the stiff joints and nerve disturbances of the injured soldiers.
 "Dr. Susie" had marked success in the testing and fitting of eyes and is we'll equipped not only to test and correct, scientifically, errors in vi- sion, but being an M. D. before pre- pairing herself in Post Graduate work as an eye specialist, she treats all diseased conditions of the eye as welt.

DOUGLAS CITY DESTROYED
 BY FIRE SUNDAY
Biggest Fire In History of Alaska

The lower half of Douglas City including the Indian village and all of Treadwell was destroyed by fire Sundy morning and ragged beyond control until evening of the same day.
 Forty-two Indian families totaling atout 125 persons were made home less and are practically destitute as they di not have time to save any thing but their bedding and the clothing on their backs.
 Tn the white section 38 residences were destroyed. Two stores in the village burned to the ground as did aso two stores on St. Ann street. The loss is estimated to be more than 0,O0O.
 The fire is supposed to have start ed by sparks falling on the roof of an abandoned cabin in the Indian village at the rear of the old Doug las laundry. No attention was paid the fire for a half hour or more when the entire building burst into flames throwing embers in all direc- tions. The fire was famed by the high winds and spread the fire with such rapidity that several lines con Inected to salt water had no affect.

CANAO1!, DEFEATS
 PENs|O

The Department of Labor has .1ust issued a statement telling of the defeat by the Canadian Senate, by the vote of 46 to 21, of bill to establish pensions for the aged. The rejection was on June 8 and was reported by the American con- sulate at Ottawa. The bill it was stated, gave authority to any Pro- vince to establish pension system by provincial statute, subject to ap- proval by the Governor in council.
 AS summarized by the Depart ment of Labor, pensions were to be restricted to British subjects, aged 70 or more, with incomes under $365. a year, with certain require rents as to residence, etc. The maximum pension payable was to be $40, this amount to be reduced by the amount of the pensioners in- come in excess of s125. year.

ADOPTS RE-
 SOLUTION

The Fairbanks Commercial Club at recent meeting adopted reso- lulion protesting the appointment of Dr. Alberts, successor to Prof Geor- eeson of Sitka who is leaving for the States by next year. The Fair bsrks Commercial Club declares that by virtue of his years of ex- perience in the work, MT. G. W. Gas ser, Assistant in Charge of the Fair banks Station, he is in line for the appointment and promotion.
 We have nothing to gain by ex- pressing ourselves in this matter, but in our humble opinin the Fair banks resolution has a ot of merit. lens should fit MT. Gasser for the Twenty years of experience in direct touch with local agricultural prob position to be vacated by Professor Georgeson. pr. Alberts probably is we'll qualified theoretically to carry on the work but the new conditions and problems make practical experi- cree of greater worth in the Alaska fields. The fact that a man has been faithfu and efficient for twenty years should als have some weight and consideration.
