Glencoe Sept 9-The story Of a
drab little odd-jobs man who
strayed from the path Of church
secretary and Sunday school
teacher for the Jekyll-Hyde lie Of
bigamist with three wives living
less than six miles apart was I'M
folded Tuesday in a courtroom at
Glencoe, MINI.
Two of his wives lived across
the road from each other in the
little hamlet Of Sumter for several
months, never suspecting that
their husbands were the same
man. The deception was accom-
plised through a change Of garb
and the use Of hair coloring.
Leaning listlesly against the
bars Of his Jail cell, indulging in
an occasional mirthless laugh, the
little man Tuesday related mis- ex-
periences as a rustic Romeo. Never,
had he thought he-Harry Ran
now, SON Of a pioneer resident
should bring the shame Of q 10
year prison sentence for bigamy
and abandonment upon his family.
He faced that sentence, imposed
by Judge c. M. Tiff when he
pleaded guilty to the charges, with
the stolidity that characterized
his three wives when they realized
that the romance they had known

Sauk Centre Has Full
Pledged Pickle King
Takes q Long Shot on IA Bushel
of Cholera Makers-Sayes
He Unloaded

A few days ago, so the story
goes, a farmer lady met Jesse
Rose and asked him If he could
use a bushel or so of cucum-
bers. He answered that he
could and to leave them at the
house. She inquired If it would
be all right If there was more
than a bushel and he very gal
lantly replied, so the story goes,
that it would be OK.
It is said the cucumbsrs were
to be delivered Tuesday. Before
leaving home that morning Mr..
Rose filled out a blank check
and told Mrs. Rose to pay for
the cucumbers when they arriv-
ed. He was quite surprised
when he returned home later in
the day to find his yard literal
ly filled with sacks-14 of 'em,
enough to give nearly every
boy and girl in America the
tummy ache.
What the family could handle
were made use Of but still
there remained more than a
dozen bushels. According to Jes-
SEES story he hauled them to a
nighboring town and sold them
at profit of a dollar bushel.
Mebe so, mebe so.
At any rate Jesse was Gu
cumber king for a day.

ed by the last legislature and We.
toed by Governor Olson was ar
gued in the state supreme court

sure.
Contesting the recent decision of
District Judge Gustavus Loevinger
who upheld the act, George T,
Simpson, former attorney general
Weeks Of Minneapolis, counsel
for Mr.. Smiley, asked the court
to nullify the legislatures act on
the grounds that the resulting dis.
tricts are unfair.
The redistricting act was passed
to meet reduction In the states
congressional representation from
10 to nine members. The old tenth
district was eliminated, and the
other districts rearranged to take
up the counties included in that
district.
A number Of members Of con-
gress from the state as well az
many legislators appeared in the
chamber to hear the arguments

 HAILED IN JOY
 AND CLADNESS
Bells, Whistles, Shots, Shouts and Songs Mark
 Midnight Hour

With joy and gladness at mid night last night, Juneau greeted the New Year. Church bells, boat and industrial whistles, pistol and gun shots, singing and shouting marked the ending of the old and the beginning of the new twelve. month period
 The chief observances were in homes-homes on both hillsides and tideflats Lights gleamed from the windows of nearly all residences, where watch parties varied from large social functions to small fam fly affairs.
 Events that partook of public or a formal nature were the meet ings of the Christian Endeavorers in the Northern Light Presbyter- ian Church and of mmebers of the Pentacostal Mission in their re- ligious quarters; the annual Hi- Jinks of the Elks in their lodge and club building and the card party and dance of the Eagles in their hall at Douglas. All were largely attended.
 By business and government agencies today was observed as a i holiday. Stores and offices were closed.
 The principal set affairs fer today and tonight are the Masonic reception, which started at o'clock this afternoon in Scottish Rite Temple and which will continue until 5, and the Merrymakers

had found Charming delightful. She studied him as they waited for the check boy to bring his hat and stick. She wondered how old he was. His hair was gray at the tenn pies. That was becoming and gave him distinguished air. Although his expression was serious, the lines of his face were youthful.
 f"All set?" he inquired as he took the wheel and the roadster left the curb.
 A raindrop splashed on the tip of Vivienne's nose as they drew up behind the line of cars waiting to cross the bridge. Tn another mo- ment the heavens seemed to open. Before they could think of shelter, both Vivienne and Charming were soaked through to their skins. y
 Ruefully, Vivienne realized that Gallatin's new model gown was al- ready a sodden ruin. The wrap she wore was also borrowed from the salon. Aileens fear Of her losing her job might prove to be we'll founded. She shouldn't have been such an utter fool! What if Gall latin's ire should put an end to her posing for Dwight. Charming! Tn her exasperation, tears mingled with the rain.
 '"Quicki" shouted Charming, grasping her arm. Get into this taxi" By luck there was de- crepit one parked a few feet away. He bundled her in and slammed the door as he told the chauffeur to drive to his studio. When it slacks up little, I'll go back and get the car. Why Viv, you're cry ing!" he exclaimed. Whats the matter, child?"
 Don't Don't touch mel" She pushed him away. This alarmed dress is a total loss-and it doesn't belong to me. It's the one you were going to photograph"

GOO to $18O,000, partly due to the decline in silver prices and partly to less metal produced.
 Heavy Loss in Furs
 Preliminary figures, which are largely .incomplete, indicate that the fur industry was hit harder than any other by the conditions existing outside of Alaska To the end of the year, Customs declara- tions showed only $739505 worth of all kinds of furs shipped to the States.
 This figure, however, does not include the fur seals and foxes from Pribilof Islands, nor the by mail shipments of all varieties dur ing the year Tn 1929 the value of these last two items was $3,- 628, ,99O. Fur seals are not believed to have declined heavily in total value in 1880 since over 2,000 more seal belts were taken than in the former year. The bymail ship ments, which were worth $2,872,49o in 1929, will probably be report ed for last year at substantially less than that amount.
 Reindeer Industry Healthy
 The reindeer industry was ap- parently in as good condition in l93O as in the preceding year. The meat shipped south exceeded the 1929 figure by almost Sl0,000. More than 100000 reindeer hides were exported as compared to l03,0o0 and the value rose from $13,300 to S34,8OO. Other reindeer products also registered small gains.
 One thousand seven hundred and eighty-three sheep hides were ship ped south, as compared to ncne in 1929. Wool exports remained st1- tionary in quantity but dec l-3, 50 per cent in value. Slightly more than 6,OO0 pounds were ship2,t valued at $3,000.

Basketball of the best kind will bl played tomorrow evening in the gymnasium of the Juneau High school. The first team of the in- stitution will meet the Douglas Bremen Both squads started the season with fine material and both have gained skill and experience by numerous hard fought contests with various opponents on the past few months. The athletes are at the top of their form. They should give the best exhibition of the popular pastime seen here this year.

 Charles White, Thomas Redling- shafer, Harold Sisson, William Rod- enberg, Thomas Judson, Earl Lind strom and James Johnson.

 After the game between the Ju- neau high school students and the Douglas smoke eaters, a contest will be played by the Juneau high school alumni and the Junear FiremenL This second controversy ought to rival the first in interest The personnel of the alumni anc Juneau Bremen teams have not yet been announced.

Other miscellaneous items, which will be fully listed in the official of Collector Mcbride some time next month, showed about a normal movement. Paintings must be excepted from this. There was a slump in the art market which cut the number of paintings ship ped in half-from 53 to 37, and the value from $18,00O to 5000.
