daw and recognition was mutual. Parks made a bee line for the door and locked it before the officer could state his case.
 Deputy O'Connoor wasted no time in formaiitties but entered by the simple expedient of breaking down the daor, to see, it is said, Parks poised over the cellar door with an, upturned bottle of liquor in his hand! 1t didn't pour fast enough, however, according to the official account, anal what remained of the contents of thel bottle came under federal jurisdiction| along with Parks.
 Now Parks is confroonted not only of the charge of not paying hls school tax but the mulh more serious one of unlawful possession of liquoor in violation of the Alaska bone dry law.
 There is considerable optimism along the lower Kuskokwim about platinum mining operations m the Good News Bay area. The dozen or so men working there last season took out between 400 and 800 ounces of platinum, which brought between $50 and S90 an ounce. These unusu- ally high figures were paid because of the presence of iridium in the plat mum.
 Suits against the Federal Govern ment are contemplated by the Alas kan Native Brotherhood, composed of Indians, who are seeking to recover compensation for certain rights claimed to have been held at one time and which passed into otner hands following the purchase of Ar.ska by the United States.
 Millions of dollars are understood to be at stake in the proposed action. which involves Indian lands, fishing streams, hunting and trapping grounds, forests and mining lands
 At convention of the Brotherhood il..id recently at Haines, William. l.. "aal and James Wickersham, now a candidate for delegate from Alaska in tho April primaries, were retained as attorneys.
 Before any slut can be initiated against the Government, however, it will be necessary for Congress to grant legislative authority. It is planned to have Delegate Sutherland introduce such a bill at the present session of Congress.

The first visit to a hospital does not always bring the re- suits we expect. The first Church service may not bring to us the results we expect from it. It is sure that it will not make one perfect but it may cause us to see our imper- fections more clearly. Do not get disheartened if this hap pens but come again and talk with others about it and see what will happen afterwards. After the darkness and storm Comes a, radiant light;
 After the turmoil and strife Cometh the sunshine bright; After the gloaming and night Cometh the glorious dawn; After the tolls and the cares Cometh the victor's song. After the turmoil an dstrife Cometh a wondrous peace; After the doubts and the fears Cometh a sure release;
 After the sorrow and tears
 Cometh a heavenly strain; After the prayer and praise.
 Cometh his blessing again.

FRANKLIN GENIUS

The 224th anniversary of the birth of Benjamin Franklin occurred at a time when there is a marked revival of interest in this genius of Revolutionary America. In fact it appears very much as if his country is rediscovering him.
 The passing of generations has not dwarfed him in the eyes of the world or in the an- nals of history. He seems to tower more and more over his contemporaries as the perspec- tive of history lengthens. This is hardly because Franklin brought the lightning down from the sky, or because he col lected data on waterspouts and earthquakes, or devised a rem edy for smoking chimneys, or invented bifocal spectacles, or made a clock, or had more than an average knowledge of med icine. Nor yet is it due to his political services, great as they were; nor to his publishing and printing activities; nor to his having signed the Declaration of Independence.
 H. was the first civilized" public man in America and that accounts for his ever growing fame. It was the many-sidedness of Franklin, along with his humanity and his magnetism that has project 1 ed the greatness of him down Q the present time. In his own era the man was a mOdernist. There was nothing reactionary
 II his makeup, and yet he was never a radical.
 Benjamin Franklin's enduring 1 tame seems to rest upon the
 :act that he was so far in ad-
 vance of his day and general { on. He would not be lost in l his modern world, nor be be- yildered by it. It is in the many ways in which he differ
 I'd from his contemporaries cather than in his kinship with hem that he stands out so clearly from his time.

GOOSE BONE PROPHETS"

During the fall the weather prophets W ere apparently about equally divided in 'early winter" and ''late winter" prognostications. And now that winter is we'll under it's three months journey some of the "goose-bone prophets foretell cold, wet summer and others claim to see hot, dry season approaching. About next Sep tember the public will know which guess was the best As far as Hyder is concerned it is a decidely tough" winter, and most unusual weather condit- ions have prevailed through out, so we can hardly refrain from commenting on a widely advertised prediction that this is to be a "year without sum- mer," like 1916.
 A New York state diarist in 1916 recorded snow on June 6 and 8, freezing weather up to June IA, frost on June 28, backward crops in July be- cause of unreasonable weather and frost on August 24.
 There are many signs" on which this unpromising pre- diction of cold summer is based but the one most ire ouently cited is the recollect- ion (its accuracy is not vouch- safed) that six exceptionally warm summers preceded the frigid summer of 1916 and that the last six summers temper atures east of the Rocky Mountains have been generally above normal. The theory is entertained that to compen- sate for the high temperatures there must be a season of un- usually low thermometer read ings.
 But the fact remains that there is too little known of the sequence of weather condit- ions over a long period of years to warrant the forming of such conclusions as the one-in-seven theory of of the long distance weather forecasters. Much is said about weather cycles, '' but the prophets" seem to be unable to agree upon the time it takes to complete that cycle.

Commenting on his selections,
President Williams pointed out that
the average age of the umpire staff
is probably the youngest in class AA

Zone reason for picking young
men was to obtain a number of ar.
hiters who are anxious to advance"
Williams said. "Another was for
speed. The old idea of choosing an
umpire for his height and bulk, re-
gardless of his ability to get down
on the plays, has changed.
To-day we want agile men who
can combine good Judgment with
fast footwork. There are number
of plays in which an umpire needs
70 be just as fast as the runner"

coast league second oaseman; Henry
Tanning, onearmed arbiter in the

Johnnie Villaflor had better watch

Things have been coming right
for Bobby lately and following sew

Last December Robert Jr., arrived
in the Pacho household and Bobby

champion baby at the Amerieaniza-

"old man. is feeling the effects of
Young Bobby's glory. Also Bobby

sirayed away a couple of weeks ago.
From all accounts at the Ameri-

strong rs the proverbial OK, even if
he is only two months old. He's
