Alaska sense. Alaska for AlaSkans, a phrase heard all over the coun- try, had for Jones the same mean ing then for the other 9334 of the inhabitants. Use and misuse the country like good Alaskan. A stake made in Alaska can be spent faster in California so in order to make quick and good sized stake and play millionaire in SWe- den, "Glasseye" opened a store and went into partnership with trappers.
 He only took the skins and left the carcasseS to the trapper Of course he was obliged to trade with them and to do this profitably, he charged only twice the 100 per cent retail prices for strict cash sales. Credit sales were again doubled and payments always added to the bill. If debtor died without leaving property, his bill were added in full to each other debtor. His creditors he very sell dom paid. No wonder that he could live better than King Solomon Business depression he never heard of
 His family he raised like the other natives. Mrs. Jones was not beautiful. Her smile could not be broader because the ears did not permit the mouth to open wider. Her teeth, tobacco o-stained-both of them-Were seemingly borrowed from baby-Walrus. An aromatic frangance Of something surround ed elephant-like form.
 Why Jones selected her for his helpmate is just one more prob lem for other scientists to solve. I have not the time or inclination. Undoubtedly the answer will go a long ways toward influencing the fur market and election of the Alaskan delegate.

I have had to admit that the rite underwent some modification and is doled out in a more humane manner. Only one black eye is given at each beating but if the amount of bivouk provided drinks for two days, the coloring is more uniform and more intensive.
 "Glasseye" Jones was accident ly killed. He was beating up the wrong squaw and the temporary owner of the squaw shot him by mistake His monument, the tall est two by four totem pole, broke down recently under the weight of washline load, but will be re- newed as standing in a good To- cation to Cry laundry.
 Sometimes I feel sorry that re- searches contradict mythical fame and made historic heroes of ordi- nary men or even hoodlums. Poor "Glasseye" shares this fate with many others. Rumor made him to be anything and nobody. According to the Whim of his biographers he could be the Count of Luxo, Swe- dish nobleman or Captain Cooks dishWasher. The truth is he was a runaway codfiSherman.
 His old sea-bag, unwillingly will ed to his squaW, contained a few sailship discharges, his Swedish seamans- book and a multitude of railroad timetables, all of them bearing on the flyleaf the slogan: Young man, don't go yeast, go West! From this I assume that his intention was to come here and start a barbershop. He enter ed wild and WoOlly country, bar ren, good only for reindeer rais- ing.
 Fish were plentiful end the lakes covered with water fowl. fur bearing animals, such as fox, land otter and mink, if trapped and not poisoned, would provide indefinitely trappers with the means to make a good living Not over smart, but smarter than the native, Jones remembered the old saying that in the kingdom of the blind, the one-eyed would be king.
 Without federal aid he began developing the country in the true

will stop forever the ficticlous claims. Fact is that the coast and also the Boring sea was visited very early by Ericson, Behring and the Alaska Packers, but their ac- cidental visits and fishing expedi- tions cannot be considered as the discovery of the country. My research, verified Dy truth full statements of tycoons, medicine men and natives, living and dead, gave proof that "Glasseye Jones" was the first white man ever to have settled in the West. The date of his arrival is uncer- , tain but quite few years before others explored this part of the country in search of Troy. His excursion, interestingly narrat- ed, was and must be a failure as he depended upon the instinct of his Grecian dogs to find the battle-grounds of the Illiad. The multitude of Sun-cured salmon irritated his dogs and the smell of the fish destroyed utterly every scent, even Greek. "Glasseye's" second trip by plane, is doubtless an epoch in the history of Western Alaska, as he imported then and here the first orange brought in by plane. In honor of this remarkable ach- ievement, the SquaW Mems Union, Local No. l, will erect a monument and the president of the Orange Grafter Union will be requested to dedicate his unearned bonus, bout s6,OOO, for this worthy pur- pose.
 We had a difficult time to pre- vent the Union member from electing him as lifelong mem Der.
 The Union is very strong in this part but it is interesting to note that suffragettism has started to sprcut. Some time ago the squaWS demanded a change of the matri- monial rite and formula. The question: Do you take this awful woman to your lawful wife, is modified and in some cases drop ped altogether
 But to come back to Jones.
 He was a mighty SWede. HIS habits are still the style of the country; his powerful swearlngs and also his recipese TOT making bivouk and booze will always be used. Time cannot make an lm- proyement.

VETERANS HONOR
BONUS ARMY DEAD
First Anniversary of Exodus
Observed by Group at
Arlington.

A handful of veterans paid homage
yesterday in Arlington Cemetery to the
two comrades buried there whose lives
were lost just before the Bonus Army
thousands were driven at bayonet point
from the Capital a year ago.
The service marked tn. first an
niversary of the exodus from Pennsyl-
vania avenue and the Anaccstia fats
during which William j. Hushka and
Eric Carlson, both of Illinois, were
mortally wounded. They were buried
short distance apart among the
graves of other fallen soldiers.
Late yesterday small group gath
cred on the smooth green turf, at the
base of a shaft from the sinking sun,
and offered prayers.
Throughout the simple ceremony
representatives of local and national
veterans organizations stood silently at
attention. Rev. Stanley A. Czyz of the
Immaculate Conception Church intoned
prayers for the repose Of their souls.
The two graves were banked with
wreaths. Most were anonymous.
Two smaller pilgrimages, earlier. left
flowers. First came six members of the
Veterans National Rank and File Com
mittee, led by Frank A. Flynn. Then
Rev. John r. West, B. E. F. chaplain.
and Ed Mcconnell. former chauffeur for
Gen. Pershing, placed on the graves
wreaths sent by Representative Vir-
ginia Jenckes of Indiana.
