Macintosh wished TO take the oath
onitting the passage which reads:
Il will support and defend the con-
stitution Of the United States

In appealing to the court, Dean
Clark said Macintosh merely wished
to let his conscience guide his judg-

This privilege Of quiet. dignifed

Judge BURROWS said that while
otherwise the applicant was fully

see no reason why he should make
an exception and allow Macintosh

 Made desperate. by the agony of constant pain and the knonwledge that he could not recover his health, Tom Shaw, pioneer of the North, end ed his life at Anchorage short time ago by shooting himself through the head with revolver. His body was found by chance caller at his apart1 ment on K street, and the authorities informed. The oldtimer was on the floor, where he had fallen when the fatal shot was fired. Death apparent ly was instantaneous.
 It was a clear case of suicide, everything pointing to self-destruc- tion. One of the bits of evidence gathered was note signed by the deceased, telling of his intention to take his own life. Another note, ap- parently intended for some friend but not addressed to any one, and un- signed, contained much the same statement as the signed note. The note read as follows:
 "I have got cancer of the throat. I hate to do this, but can't stand it much lonnger. You will find the money in tin dish in my shirt pocket. I do not belong to no lodge. No relatives. Tom Shaw"
 Say, old man, 1 hate to leave you. The cancer is getting terrible bad. The taste in my mouth is terrible. I hate to do it, but I can't help it. Good by"
 Shaw was born in Scotland and was about 65 years of age at the time of his death. During construction days Shaw was section foreman at Stand ard, about midway betweenn Nenana and Fairbanks, and later he entered the employ of the Fairbanks Explora- tion Company, remaining with that company several years.
 That wolves are on the increase in the sheep hills is the opinnion of George Keys, engineer at the Alaska College, who recently returned to Fairbanks from trip to Valdez. De- crease in the amount of bounty al- lowed by the Territory is laid partly responsible for this growing menace to wild life. Says MT. Keys:
 "A few days ago on our way back from Valdez and Chitinna, Egan Pet rokov, Fred B. Parker and his sons, Ernest Wakwitz and l wentn on sheep-hunting trip. On our way up a canyon we found big bull caribou, which had recently been killed by wolves and lay about one-fourth eaten. Wakwitz got a shot at the wolf and killed him. He was huge.
