 At various times during the past
 Is years there has been an intima-
 tion that the Department of Jus
 tice favored the combining of the Second and Fourth Judicial Diyi- Esions of Alaska, so as to do away
 with one set of judicial officials.
 It seems that this matter is now
 to be brought to head through
 the perpetuation by the Depart
 ment of a bill for introduction in Congress by the Judiciary Commit
 tee which is brief but provides:
 "That on and after July l, 1882.
 there shall be only one district judge, one clerk of court, one dis trict attorney and one U. s. mar

PILOT ID SET PLANE
 WINGS; SLEEP As HE
 SEEKS FLIGHT MARKS

LOS ANGELES, Oct. A. P1- Upon a set of novel airplane wings incorporating his own ideas Wilbur Cornelius, salesman-aviator, will depend almost entirely in an at- tempt to break existing endurance flight records.
 And Cornelius, who is 32 and a resident of Glendale, Cal, has a world of confidence in his idea, for he has been told by the War De- partment that the wings are inn practical.
 Cornelius said he would attempt before long to circle the metropol- itan airport here for month. He intends to prove further that air planes are safe, and that magni- elan is not needed to fly one.
 Tt is all in the corrective stabil- ization wings" he said With these wings can set down 3 plane in 175 feet and at the limit of climbing power it will nose over into hori- zontal position"
 T can set the wings and fly at a given altitude as long as the gaso- line holds out" Cornelius says. T can set the wings at 5000 feet and fly from here to Reno, New, and be 5000 feet up when I arrive. When flying for endurance marks I'll just set the wings and go to sleep"
 Cornelius possesses 8 private pi- lots license. He wrote the late President Woodrow Wilson about the stabilization wings, but his let ter was given the War Department. He said he received a letter from the department informing him his idea was impractical.

BISHOP TALKS
ON GOOD NAME
Says Nation Should Pay
Less Attention To
Riches

"A Good Name" was the subject
or Bishop Capers' fifth sermon
delivered at the Church or the
Advent Thursday night before a
large congregation. The series Of
sermons started Sunday and viii
terminate Feb. 3.
He took for his text the first
verse OF the seventh chapter of
EcclesiasteS: "A good name Is bet
ter than precious ointment: and
the day of death than the day Of
ones birth"
The trite phrase, the world Is
money-mad'. Is born out or a real
condition OF present day life and
IL deserves our most serious
thought" the bishop said in part.
Success is the catch-word OF
the world and success must come
without thought OF purchase price"
he continued. He warned against
mans oVer-anxiety 70 win ucces
in the last analysis a mans
character Is his truest asset and il
Is the one imperishable legacy that
he can leave to the generations to
come. Think back over your own
life and reflect what chances you
have taken with your good name"
He added that the nations need
was u deepening or the character
OF her citizenship, and said that
the thoughts OF the people should
be the development OF character
and less upon the development Of
the riches OF our resources.
He pointed out that Jesus left
no earthly wealth OF riches. but a
sp0tless name. which He Is willing
TO share with every one who Is
willing to follow him"
