Making Investigation of
 Herring Flsherle

George Ro unse fell, Junior Aquatic Biologist connected with the Bureau of Fisheries is in the Chatham Straits section studying herring of southeast Alaska. He will spend the sum- mer gathering information re- lative to history of the herring, whether local or otherwise, the age of the fat herring and any other information he can gather regarding the species.
 Last year MT. Rounsel threw a bombshell into the camp of the tory cannerymen when he set forth statements verifying contentious of Alaskans that the herring fishery was being destroyed.

funds for the support c. -
 lege come regularly from the national treasury. The action of the late Senate in holding up the college appropriation until the last hours of the session in order to force action by the house on pending legislation de- sired by tie senate majority suggests the lengths to which bloc action can be carried and should serve as a warning to guard the college against such tactics in the future, to the ex- tent, at least, of providing a stated maintenance allowance free from inuuence of other le- gislation.
 The Times does not believe it was the intention of the late senate majority to permit the session to adjourn without ap- proval of the college appropria- tion. It is more pleasant to think tlse action was merely a bluff to frighten the house members into action and that the college bill would have been passed even if the house had refused to come to the senate terms on other measures; but that sort of naneuvering is not good for the college or for

BRISBANE SHOULD MEET FEM

Arthur Bri sb ane, Hearst's high salaried philosopher does not know the DunnS, DimondS, Murrays and Fosters of our Alaska legislature but he surely does know their kind. Our sy- cophantic salons who insist on maintaining one to rule over them Wlso is in no way respons- ible to them for his action should read this comment on kings and subjects by Brisbane:
 King George has returned to his favorite residence, Windsor Castle, with years of life prom ised by doctors.
 Loyal subjects turned out to cheer their King.
 Newspapers print his picture headed, Long to Reign Over Us.'
 The idea that men do not want to be ruled is a mistake. To be ruled is exactly what they DO want, and to be freed from responsibility of self-rule.
 It is painful for a dog to walk on it's hind legs, painful for human beings to rule them selves and think for themselves. the territory and it should not be tolerated by the voters. There may come a time when there will be a senate or a house that will not stop at bluffing. An chorage Daily Times. :. =. ....

FREED PRISONERS
ACCLAIMED HEROES
Anti-Fascists GIeeful Over
Escape of Trio From
Isle of Lipari.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, August 1o.-Three men who
escaped from the Isle of Lipari, known
as one of the most strongly guarded
prisons in the world and dreaded for
the loneliness and strict confinement
encountered there, were the heroes OF
anti-FaScist circles here Thursday
night. All had been sent to the island
jail for acts of opposition to the Fascist
regime in Italy.
The three men are Francesca Nitti
a nephew Of a former Italian premier
and a liberal writer who had been out
spoken in his criticisms Of the govern
ment: Carlo Roselli. former professor
of political economy at Genoa institute
whose wife is English. and Emilio
Lussu, who spoke out strongly for his
native Sardinia and former service men
in the Chamber of Deputies and who
was four times decorated for his BRAY
cry during the World War.
No escape from the island has ever
been revealed that was not assisted by
persons ION the outside" Roselli, de-
scribing their adventures after their safe
arrival here, disclosed that they had
had the help of friends in a small sail
boat. Ever since the three had come
together at the prison eight months
before they had followed a careful
plan of escape designed to throw their
keepers off their guard. Finally, on a
night when the moon rose late. they
slipped away and swan out to the
waiting boat.
The news of their escape was an
nounced very briefly in Rome TO-DAY
without explanat ton OF where they had
found safety. All three were consid-
cred political prisoners of great impor-
lance.

In Old Cemetery of

to Second Century.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BUDAPEST. August 10.-In the old
historic Roman city of Acquincum. now
known as Tabor Hill, half-an-hour dis
tant from Budapest. mummy has been
excavated, which is believed to date
from the second century AID.
The tomb Is lined with elaborate stone
slabs illustrating episodes Of an animal
life which are believed to have formed
the ceiling of the sanctuary. The
mummy. believed to be that of the
wife Of rich merchant, suffered
considerable damage after it was
exposed to daylight. The embalm-
ing was done with resin and is
so perfect that experts attribute it to
an Egyptian who had been summoned
from Alexandria for this purpose.
In the stone comm were a pair Of
rubber sandals. elaborate jewels. food
vessels. a vanity bag" containing vari-
GUS beauty ointments. a carved silver
comb, bronze hairpins, an oil lamp and
some coins of bronze.
Acquincum was in the days OF the
Roman empire q vast cemetery. 1t Is
intended to continue the excavations,
as it Is believed highly valuable dis
coveries will reward the effort Of the
diggers.

When remedy after remedy failed. her

The new and successful theory was
this: Miss Stone had hiccougned so
long that, to her. hiccoughs had become
a normal element In her life. Hysteria,
induced by the continued strain had
made her incapable OF conceiving she
could recover.
Strong injections of a powerful drug
caused her to sleep. and yesterday on
awakening she promptly ceased to hic-
cough. Her mind having been taken
from her ailment during the uncon.

was completely at ease. The drug treat
ment was aided by complete isolation
