Delegate Asks Vital Changes
 In Alaska Organic Act

Vitally important changes in the Alaska Organic Act are sought by Delegate A. J. Dim- ond in bills introduced in the House of Representatives in Washington last week.
 One measure proposes trans fer to the Alaska Legislature the right to enact all laws af- fecting fish, game and fur bearing animals. The other would authorize the Governor of Alaska to call a special ses- sion of the Legislature to en- act legislation covering control of fisheries other than the fur seal and sea otter fisheries. It also provides for paying to the Territory one-half of the proceeds from the sale of seal skins to defray the cost of en- forcing the regulations and turns over to the Territory all equipment of the U. s. Bureau of Fisheries used in Alaska.

INITIATION AMENDMENT
 PASSES LOWER HOUSE

Radio reports Wednesday an- nounced that the imitation amendments to the Farm Relief bill, giving the President au- thority to reduce the quantity of gold in the dollar, remone- tize silver and accept $20O,- O00,000 in payment of war debts, had been passed by the House of Representatives by 8 vote of 308 to 76.
 The amendment has now been approved by both senate and house but it's enactment in- to law still awaits passage of the farm relief bill by the low CT house. If the farm bill does not pass the imitation bill will be lost. Prospects are, howev- CT, that the measure will pass within a few days, although some of the farm relief provis- ions as passed by the senate are attracting much opposition by House members.

Report Unverified

A rumor circulated during the past week to the effect that $3,000,000 of the Administrat- ion unemployment relief fund had been allotted to Alaska could not be substantiated.
 The Chamber of Commerce wired Tuesday to Represent ative Joe Green at Juneau, where the report was said to have originated, asking for in- formation as to what action was necessary to secure a DOT tion of the reported allotment for unemployment in Hyder, but no answer had been re- ceived up to this Saturday. morning.

LEGISLATURE PASSES
 RYDER FLOOD BILL

The Green bill for flood con- trol of Salmon River at Hyder, carrying an appropriation of S12,000, passed the Alaska Legislature last week and at last reports was awaiting only the signature of Governor Troy to become a law.
 Of the total S12,000 appro- priated, $5,000 is to become immediately available for inn proving and extending the present flood control system, on which approximately ESQ., 900 has been already eXpend- ed by private interests and the Territory of Alaska. The re- maining $7,000 is in the nature of contingent fund to be en- ployed as a local cooperative contribution toward the con- struction of extensive Iperma- nent flood control works by the federal government at an esti- mated cost of $53,000. Plans for the latter project have been approved by the War Depart ment engineers and are now awaiting action by Congress.
 Under the provisions of the measure, sponsored by Repre- sentative J. K. Green of Hyder, the $5,000 Territorial appro- priation would be expended under the direction of the Ter 1itorial Highway Engineer,
 The enactment as drawn per mits the expenditure of the en- tire $5,000 allotment in the present year if necessary but it is probable that a subStan- tial portion will be reserved for maintenance work next year, as no further appropriation can be obtained until the Leg islature meets again in March, 1885.
 In the absence of virtually all avenues of employment for local labor, incident to the de- cadence of silver mining during the past three years, the pro- ject will be of inestimable ben eft to the community by pro- viding work for a considerable number of men during the summer season. Considerable expenditures for supplies and materials are also anticipated.

Details of M. s. Anacortes = Destruction By Fire

Details of the burning of the Hyder-K etchikan mail boat in Portland Canal last week dis close that the fire started from a backfire of the auxiliary en- zine at , a. m. and the vessel was almost immediately filled with flames. The accident oc- cured while the motorship was about two miles north of Astro- nomical Point, about 56 miles south of Hyder. The single life boat was launched at once but sank immediately, owing, it was reported, to a faulty plug. Capt. s. Stenberg then headed the City of Anacortes for shore and succeeded in getting with in about 10 yards of the beach.
 The two passengers, Mrs Gertrude Smith and Mrs. Dor othy Hoffman, both of Hyder, then swan ashore and were later followed by the crew of four men, after the latter had rescued the mail and a trunk belonging to one of the passen- gers. The only other cargo on board was five barrels of Can adian beer consigned to the Blue Fox Cafe in Ketchikan. This and everything else on board was lost.
 The flame-enveloped vessel burned for hours to the waters edge and is believed to be a total loss.
 The six survivors were ma rooned on the beach for SC hours before being picked up by Coast Guard vessel sent out from Ketchikan when the Anacortes failed to appear there on time on her return trip from Hyder. The party subsisted on a few cans of food salvaged from the burning yes eel and had only a single can of soup left when the rescue ship appeared. In making her escape from the burning ship, Mrs. Hoffman sustained a few bruises and scratches but none of the others were any the worse for their perilous expert ence.
 The Anacortes was 58 feet long, 26 tons burden and was built in 1909. The vessel was operated in the local trade by the Moves Boat Company of Ketchikan for several years. The vessel is said to have been insured for S6,000.

The ninth game of the great "45" tournament conducted by the St Francis Xavier Holy Name so- ciety was played last evening in the Holy Name rooms. The cold stormy weather didn't interfere with the attendance. The usual large crowd was on hand.
 High honors of the night went to Jimmy Cusick and his great "Shellackers" who buried Mike Goggins' "Rovers" 39-24, and crept up a few more notches toward first, and are now only one game behind the leaders. There is no question what they will be in first place after they put the old shellac on to the "Bear-Cats" next week.
 Joe Phelan's "All-Americans'' were next high scorers, defeating Pete Coughlan and his Lightning Bugs" 36-27 and retain first place by a single game. The Lightning Bugs" took a nose dive last night which Pete claims was due to the severe weather and high winds which was a great handicap and they couldn't get circling around.
 Frank Mulcunry's NRA's finally broke the ice by winnig their first game. Mike" Craney's "Crocker- Jacks" being the victims of a 35-2S battle. Now that the blue eagle has started it's good work Frank feels encouraged that the hoodoo has vanished and thinks Father O'Con- nor's new system of coaching is go- ing to bring big results in the fu- ture. Mike" was not discouraged by the defeat because his coach Ed Hes is in training for a wres- tling bout Thursday night with Roly- and couldn't give his full time to both. Ted assures him that he will pin Roly's shoulders to the mat which will give Mike more pleasure than losing last night game.
 James Farrell's Spark Plugs trounced Bob McHugh'S Bear cats" 35-28. The three Dunnes play ing a whale of a game last night and credit must be given to them Coach Paddy said. we are not Dragging, but take it from me that all of you hit snag when you stack up against us boys from old Balley-Bunyan. Frank Devereaux and William Pryor, Bobs two coaches working under orders from their captain carried out his plans hut couldn't get anywhere with them and claim that he needs a whole lot of tooting-up on the game himself.
 Johnny Phelan's "All-Stars" de- feated Tom Horan's Boy Won ders" 35-28. The Stars" were in great form last night, every man playing bang-up game and espe- cially Fred CCughlan and Pinky Sheehan, the coaches who surprised even themselves.

1726, divided the region into two sections, western and eastern. These two subdivisions did not i'm cluded Litchfield, New Milford. New Fairfield and Woodbury where settlements had already been start ed.
 The eastern area war granted to the chief petitioners for land the taxpayers of Hartford and Windsor. In it seven townships were planned. Hartford was to control New Hartford. Winchester, Iiartland and the eastern part of Harwinton. Windsor was to con- trol Colebrook, Barkhamsted, Tor r1ngton and the western half of Harwinton.
 Harwinton (the name being a composite from parts of the names of Hartford. Windsor and Farming ton) was the first town to be started, since it was accessible by the Litchfieid road and close both to Messenger, came from the lat ter two towns, but later settlers in- cluded migratory families from Simsbury, Guiiford. Wallingford, Branford and Southhold, l.. I.
 New Hartford was settled con-
 
 the first settlers arriving in 1734 and the town being incorporated in 1738.
 Torrington had several advan- tages which attracted early sett- lers. These advantages included valuable pine swamp between the forks of the Naugatuck River and it's accessibility by road and river from Hartford and Windsor. The settlement was effected in 1735 and 1736 and by 1737 twenty-eight families were in residence. The four remaining towns, Bar hamsted. Hartland, Winchester and Colebrook developed more slowly, owing partly to their re- moteness and partly to the fact that most of the restless inhabi- tants of the Connecticut river towns had already had their land needs satisfied. Barkhamsted. for in- stance, had already been stripped of its valuable forest land asset be- cause much timber had been cut and fioated down the Pennington river for use. in the Connecticut river towns. It was not settled un- til 1746 and it's population in- creased slowly.
 While Hartford and Windsor were thus disposing of the eastern part of the "western lands" the problem of organizing the great tract of country extending west ward to the New York boundary had become pressing. Petitions be- gan to pour into the assembly from all parts of the colony asking for land in the new area.
 Between 1723 and 1743. sixteen requests for the founding of new townships were recorded, repre- senting the activities of ITS men, and, as each township usually ac- comdated fifty families in the first division, the assembly felt justified in starting the new towns quickly, for good land was growing scerce | in the colony. Moreover, the desire for new land was widespread and the petitioners expressed them- selves as willing to meet any obli- gations or regulations which the eohony migSt impose upon them. The petitioners were from nineteen towns as widely scattered as Fair field, New Haven. New London, Windham and Windsor.

was another case of children be. coming attached to a homeless dog and making 1t their pal.
 As the law compels the registra- tion of all dogs. Judge Masco,o had no alternative. On the ques- ton of the quarantine 1t is either a choice of keeping an animal locked up or on a leash when on the streets. Deputy Commissioner Ganung expressed an opinion which indicated that he was not enthusiastic about muzzling dogs.
 In tracing the ownership or rather the residence" of the dogs MT Ganung admitted that he ob- served them on the street and fol- lowed them. One of the dogs gave him long run and was so incon- siderate as to take few short cuts through back yards.
 The state official had no recom- mendation to make, except that in his opinion a nominal fine should be imposed as a lesson to other dog owners.
 Prosecuting Attorney Charles Summa favored considering the case for three months and if in the meanwhile any of the accused were arrested again, he would be given double penalty.
 The court remarked that it was apparently a case in which the ac- cused of limited financial means had to choose between providing for their children or licensing their dog.
 IL is not unlikely but what there will be a parade of owners and dogs to the city's pound. With Christmas coming. it Is more than likely that youngsters will prefer Santa Claus gifts to their present pets. Anyway, maybe another dog will show up when the quarantine is over,
