ed of all Territorial work.
 Each Legislature has passed some bills which required some of ficer to carry them into effect and altho acknowledging that it was not satisfactory to dump the work into Federal office, still not having any Territorial officers who would be responsible to the legislature or the people, they were forced to do so.
 Measures to change this have met defeat at the last several Sessions largely through the lobbists' in- f1uence at Juneou.
 This question will be the princi- pal issue at the next election. Can didates will have to declare them- selves as being for or against this measure for Home Rule.

 CONTROLLER BILL
 At the coming election there will be an issue in which all parts of the Territorys are interested, that of having the business and work of the Territory carried on by Territorial officials instead of being conducted by appointed officers over whom the Territory has, no control.
 This question has been before the Legislature for the past several sessions in the form of what is known as the Controller Bill. Op- penents. of the bill have called it radical legislation but a study of the affairs of several States will show that they have state officers with similar duties.
 When the first Alaska Legislature met they were confronted with the problem of carrying out the provi- sions of the laws which they pass ed without any funds in the treas ury with which to pay, so they used the machinery already working, that of Federal appointed officers, in some instances illegally as the Organic Act did not mention that Federal officers should handle Ter ritorial work.
 At each succeeding Session more duties yge XgeEe piled on to the Federal offices and clerks were paid by the Territory to do the work, until at last the Legislature and the people discovered that they had no control over the affairs of the Territory or over the expenditure of the mon

of Training Children

Philadelphia.-Mus is the best
means of gaining the understanding Of
children in all campaigns for Amer
icanization, believes Mrs. Mary Louise
Curtis Box, who has spent many years
working among the residents of Phila-
delphia's foreign quarters.
1--WE find music the best way to
reach out for the sympathy of these
young people," says Mrs. Box. while
visiting the settlements saw how
many talented young musicians were
compelled to give up promising ca
reer because of poverty"
Her work in the music settlement
schools of the city inspired Mrs. Box
to give permanent endowment Of
$12,500,000 to the Curtis Institute of
Music, founded three years ago to aid
in the development of musical talent
In America.
This fund is enc Of the largest ever
devoted to this purpose. Josef Hof
mann is the director. Funds are
available for living expenses of needy
students. Tuition, use of musical in
struments and tickets for concerts and
operas are offered, without cost. The
Institute also meets the cost of launch
Ing students upon their professional
careers.
Among the teachers engaged by
Mrs. Box are Nine. Marcella Sem
brfch and Emilio de Gogorza, voice;
Josef Hoffman, and Moriz Rosenthal,
piano, and Carl Flesch, violin.

Says Earth Will Cease
to Rotate Eventually

London.-The earth eventually will
cease to rotate and will become sta
tionary object, one-half with sunshine
and the other half with eternal dark
ness, according to DR.. Andrew Crom
melin, formerly assistant astronomer
at the Royal observatory, who recently
retired after 36 years of service.
Doctor Crommelin declared here re-
Gently that at the present rate of
Slowing in it's rotation the earth
would cease to rotate in some "fev
millions Of years." He attributed the
slowing" to friction Of the tides.
"The world is safe enough, how
ever" he said, 80 far as everyone
who Is on it now is concerned"
Referring to life on other planets
and heavenly bodies, Doctor Cromme-
lin declared so far as science knows at
the present there is no life on the
moon. "Life on the moon," he said,
would be impossible unless there is
some animal there that can live with
out air."

SMALLEST MOTOR
TALL AS A DIME
Maker Spent Three Years in
Manufacture.

Lincoln, Neb.-What its modeler In.

ments for the last three years cutting
out Its parts and putting them to.
gether. 1t Is now complete and run
ming. The machinery run by the mo.
tor and the motor itself are mounted
on block Of wood that is two and a
half inches long and an inch and O
half wide. The "belt" Is made up Of
strands from No. 60 cotton thread. 1t
makes 400 revolutions minute.
The motor has 30 parts, made Of
gold, silver, copper, brass and iron
and is on the conventional lines of
standard motors. 1t is held together
by 10 screws, the smallest Of which
has 26O threads and the largest 220
threads. Many of the parts, especially
eight fiber washers and the binding
posts, are so small that they cannot
be seen by the naked eye. Kahn used
jewelers. glass while making the
parts.
The motor is half as high as 10
cent piece and weighs 100 grains. 1t
took five feet of wire to wind the
armature and three feet for each cleo
trio field, making a total of eleven
feet. Kahn is garage man and an
expert electrician. This is the second
miniature motor he has made, the first
one being twice the size of this one.
1t was stolen during a fire, and was
never recovered.
Kahn said that if he had charged
for day labor at the customary price,
the labor cost alone would have been
$3.50.

Do We Appreciate Gulls?

Gulls are among the most perfect
specimens of natures wonderful ham
dicraft. No creature could be better
fitted for the rough life 1t has to lead.
To enable these birds to withstand
cold and wet, their bodies contain
great quantities Of oil, and as lungs
would not hold sufficient oxygen for
the great efforts they must make in
stormy weather, all their larger bones
are hollow and act as. reservoirs.
The CULTS part of life seems to be
to keep, the near coast waters of the
ocean clean and tidy; without them
1t would soon be strewn With decay
ing matter. To enable them to DO
this work thoroughly they are pro-
vided with enormous appetites. A
gull will eat half Its own weight In
food in single day.

Not All Can Worthily Wear 'Elijah's Mantle
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

History Is full of instances Of men
Of whom it has been said: "The man
tie of Elijah descended upon him."
1t means that he was worthy sue
cessor Of some still more famous mas
ter. For instance, Pitt the Younger
worthily succeeded to the mantle of
his father, the famous earl Of Chat
ham. On the other hand, Richard
Cromwell quite failed to wear the man.
tie Of his father, the mighty Oliver.
The phrase is obviously Biblical.
When Elijah the prophet went up by
q whirlwind into heaven" the mantle
with which he had divided the waters
Of the River Jordan fell from his
shoulders. Elisha, his servant and
successor, picked up the fallen cloak,
for 1t seemed to him that 1t would
serve to prove whether he was true
successor or not.
The story goes on: "He took the

"Firemen, Save My Cow"
Farmers Call-They Did

Jefferson City, Mo.-The most I'M
usual order the fire department has re-
ceived came recently when Jim Roark
telephoned:
"Come rescue my cow"
The department made hasty run,
expecting a fire at the big dairy barn,
and found that the order had come In
after the COW had become mired in
the mud.
Only the cows head and shoulders
were showing above the mud. The
animal was finally removed.

Justice of Kings Bench
Ranks High in Dignity

London.-There are few positions
of greater dignity in England than
that of justice of the kings bench.
When on circuit the justice is treated
with the ceremony usually accorded
to royalty. He is deemed the first
man in the county, and the bells Of
the circuit tower ring and bugle an
nounces the opening of his assize
court.
Yet the Justices salary has been
at the same figure for nearly two CEN
turtles. When it was first set in the
Eighteenth century at $4,000 year,
it was deemed a princely recompense,
but with the decrease in the value of
money and the present British income
tax 1t is considered not so generous.

wrecked their careers. Milman
convinces them that their mis-
fortunes were all due to ono
man, Paul Raxon. Himself i'm

nancial crookedness, Milman
proposes an association of the
four men-an association outside

Raxon and force him to disgorge
his ill-gotten financial gains. Rax-

nominee, and must be eliminated.

ter, Anita, who had been living

Why the Choir Sang

The choir was peeved at the minis
ter and to get even with him all
agreed they would not join in singing
the hymns at the morning service. But
some loyal soul told the preacher
about the plot.
1--WE will now sing that grand old
hymn, We're Marchin to Zion," the
preacher announced, "omitting the
first verse;"
The second verse begins, "Let those
refuse to sing who never knew our
God" The whole choir sang.
