 The Delegate was interested in having the House include and pass in it's revenue bill an excise tax on foreign coal brought into the United States and Alaska, of 10 cents per 100 pounds. The Senate Committee on Finance has had hearings on the bill for the past week and will soon report the bill to the Senate, and it is hoped to retain the tax on coal. If this clause becomes a law it is expect ed that the tax of g per ton on British Columbia coal shipped into Alaska will be an encouragement for the greater development of Ter ritOrial coal mines and the supply ing of local needs.

 The Department of Justice has i. informed the Delegate of a willing ness to endorse a bill that he will introduce in Congress transferring the cid court house site in Nome to the City to be used for road pur- poses. The old building on the site has been used by the Bureau of Indian Affairs for a school building, but the completion of new bull ding now makes useless the old  dilapidated structure.

great for him to sit still longer. Softly,
stopping at every two steps or SO to look
and listen, he stole back into the
thicket. Presently he heard certain soft
sounds that made him more curious
than ever At last he reached an old
stump. Cautiously he peered around
it. And then his eyes stretched open as

you came and he sprang to his feet

any one so young could remain so still
for so long as that little fellow did.

there was pride in her voice. "She was
