PEACE EFFORTS BY THREE: NATIONS ALI
 COME ID NAUGHT
AND CHINESE SOL DIERS DISPLAY GREAT
 BRAVERY SACRIFICE

SHANGHAI, Feb. 9. The dan- ger threatening American n q other foreign residents here has been further increased by late de- velopments in the YangtSe Valley warfare between the Japanese and Chinese.
 The Chinese have threatened they will be forced to invade the international settlement in order to wipe out the Japanese marine base which the Japanese have eS- tablished there
 The Woosung fort, for m n y days an objective of the Japan csc forces, was still being held by the Chinese who showed superb bravery in resisting the 5000 new Japanese soldiers and water squad ron. The 5000 soldiers, the new Japanese force, have already en- trenched themselves.
 The Japanese advance on the Woosung fortresseS and n t h 6 Chapel district, has been temper arily halted by the Chinese who have blown up the bridge spanning the Whangpoo river and any att tempt to cross over to the Chinese side must be made with barges. The Chinese expected that a de termined move would be made during the night to attempt string ing a pontoon bridge across the river
 Time and time again during the fighting the Japanese have shown they are willing to sacrifice lives in order to reach their objective
 Peace efforts were attempted by the Admiral of the British naval fleet at Shanghai and the Japan ese Admiral and at Tokyo by the United States Ambassador and the Ambassador from Great Britain to- gether with officials of the Japan csc government. Both efforts were without success.

COLD STANDARD NATIONS
 FAVORED BY GERMAN TAX

BERLIN, Feb. 8, President Von Hindenburg authorized automatic increases in German tariff against goods from others countries off the gold standard
 Tn e decree provided increases against goods produced cheaply in nongold standard countries and goods from countries which have no trade treaties with Germany, or which levy higher tariffs o Il German goods than merchandise from other nations.
 Since German goods are enter ing the United States are given equal treatment with merchandise from other countries, no increase in American duties on German eX- ports is expected. American busi- nessmen in Berlin believe the de- cree would be a help in American exports to Germany.

HOSPITAL WILL BE.
 BUILT AT UNALASkA BY
 BUREAU INDIAN AFFAIRS

The Office of Indian Affairs of the U. s. Department of the In terior, has been active in further ing the educational opportunities of the natives of the Southwestern district of Alaska which includes the Aleutian Islands and the Bris- 5ol Bay country
 During the fiscal year Of 1930 1881, two new schools were con- strEcted in the isolated district of Lake Clark and Newhalen, for the first time giving educational ad vantages and nursing relief to the natives of that district. In the vil- lage of Ekuak, 90 miles up the Nushagak river, a new school and teacherage combined has be een II constructed
 School opened January 15 with an enrolment of 25 children. A new school was erected at Akutan and this year a new water system will be put in, giving each home in the village an ample supply of wat CT and also an excellent fire pro- lection
 At Atka, 300 miles west of Un- alaska, a new school is nearing completion and this summer there will be constructed one of the ex : celent new type combination school and teacIerage at Attu, 800 miles from Atka, it's nearest neigh Dor.
 With the completion of the pro- posed school at Makushin every village of the Aleutian group will be provided with educational facil- tiles.
 The teachers have all had nurS- ing experience and on many occa- sionS their untiring efforts have not only relieved the sick and suf- fering or brought new life into the world, but their constant vigil has materially reduced the dangers of an epidemic.
 The inadequate facilities of the Kanakanak hospital are frequent ly overtaxed A new hospital will be constructed during the summer of 1882 at Unalaska, the only one west of Seward.
 The desire to educate and to re- lieve the suffering is not governed by the size of the pay check or the eight-hour day, but by unselfish labor alone and thus are results accomplished

MRS. JUDD MUST D|E O|v GALLONS
 VERDICT OF MEN
COPPER BLOND MURDERESS BE SENTENCED LATTER PART
 THIS MONTH

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb g, Mrs. Winnie Ruth Judd, 27 year-o q copper blond, must die on Arizona gallows in Phoenix. The jury of IF men returned verdict of first de- gree murder and placed death as the penalty.
 The case was given to the jury at 5 o'clock in the afternoon and at g o'clock the jurors were ready to return verdict.
 When the jury'S verdict was read, Mrs. Judd showed no emotion but tears welled in her eyes. Her hus- band was sitting with an arm about her shoulder as the fate of his wife was being revealed Mrs. Judd then walked unaSsisted to her cell in the county jail and as if to sat- isfy herself that she had held her pose. looked into a mirror hang ing there.
 The insanity plea made by the defense claiming that when she murdered her friends, s. c d q not know right from wrong was completely lost.
 The jury deliberated two hours and 40 minutes, excluding an hour for dinner. The first ballot was unanimous for conviction but five more ballots were needed to reach a unanimous verdict for the death penalty.
 Thus ends one of the nations most senSa tional murder case S which began on October Is. last, when Mrs. Judd, in fit of jeal- ousy. killed her two friends, Miss Samuelson and Mrs. LeRoi.
 According to an outline of the case as prepared by the State, Mrs. Judd then cut up their bodies and shipped them to Los Angeles where the gruesome secret was let out, Then followed a mad chase after the perpetrator of the horrors which ended when Mrs. Judd gave herself up to the authorities and her husband, in an undertaking establishment.
 An appeal is mandatory and Arizona laws requires that the Su- preme court review cases carrying death penalties and before such sentences are fulfilled.
 Mrs. Judd will return before Judge Speakman, of the Phoenix court to receive her sentence on February B.
