JUNEAU VIEWS
 METAL FISHING l CRAFT TODAY
Capt. Al Weathers Brings Newest Type Ship to
 Port from Seattle

Juneau got its first look at al electrically arc-welded, all-metal hull. fishing vessel today when tht Al. Jr.. berthed at the Juneau Col6 Storage Dock. Fishermen and 'lanc lubbersp alike crowded the whari all day to give Capt. Al Weathers new craft, which looks like minia- ture Coast Guard Ship, the "onct over"
 Capt. Weathers, who has been a Juneau resident for more than % years, explained to an Empire ,re- porter this afternoon that the Al Jr., is something new in the way oi fish vessels.
 The trim craft was built in Se- attle this winter by Andrew B. Berg of the Canal Ship and Drydock Company, and is one of three such vessels constructed this season by that firm. Another is now at Sitka and followed the Al, Jr., up the Inside Passage on her maiden voy- age. The Sitka craft is owned by Capt. Ekhrol Hansen. Still another the Banner, is owned by Capt. Tom Bravik and may come here soon. These ships all are salmon trollers However the first all-metal hull to be built by the Seattle concern was the c. s. F., a 74-foot seiner now being operated out of Cordova. Ii was constructed a year ago.
 Finest" Is Boast
 Of the three trollers, the Al, Jr. is the most efficiently equipped for living quarters and it is Capt Weathers' proud boast that it i' the finest salmon troller in Alas ka" Pacific Coast shipping publi- cations have given the Weathers vessel much publicity in article! and pictures.
 The Al, Jr., built at total cos of $8,500, has an overall length O A feet, 3 inches, and has beam O l2 feet, 6 inches. Its all-metal con. struction, in which no rivets were used, lends a permanence and add, ed strength not found in wooc hulls.
 The ship has double bottom, il which are tanks which hold 1,00t gallons of fuel oil for the Ester diesel, 4-cycle engine with a 35-4! horsepower rating. The ship has ; cruising radius of 5000 miles.
 New Features
 The motor has several new pat ented features, including a welded steel base which saves 40 per cen weight. A new type generator, anC a high pressure pump which assure equal firing, are other new devices The motor gives the ship a gooc eight knots speed. Its economical operation is evidenced in the fac that the trip from Seattle wa made on $6 worth of diesel oil Capt. Wcathers said.

FIRST DIVIDEND DECLARED, HIRST| |CH|CHAG0F CO.,
Five Per Cent Payable to Stockholders July l
 Mine Started in 1917

Stockholders of the Hirst Chi chagof Mining Company have re- ceiyed notice of a dividend of five percent on the capital stock of the company, payable July l, 1885. It is the first dividend declared by the company.
 \ The operations of the Hirst Chi chagof Mining Company on it's property at Kimshan Cove, Alaska. were started by the late c. W. Fries of this city in 1917, at which time MT. Fries and Frank A. Boyle, the 1 present Auditor for the Territory of Alaska, interested Coon Dip, Chi nese Consul of Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington in the enterprise and, with the Chinese, raised sufficient funds to take up an option held by MT. Fries and MT. Boyle and commenced active operation of the property. A mill was later installed and has con- tinued active from 1917 until the present time. During this time force ranging from 40 to 60 men were employed and the operations for a considerable time were at loss and were only met by the sale of additional stock and loans to the Company by Coon Dip and his as- sociates in Seattle.
 | The declaring of a dividend is good news to number of people in Juneau, particularly Andy Lager gren, Gus Messerschmidt, Juneau Dairy MT. and Mrs. Jack Marshall MT. and Mrs. William Childs, Dr. and Mrs. L. P. Dawes, Miss Helene Albrecht and number of others who invested in the stock of this company, largely between the years 1917 and 1920, and who have held their investment intact from that time until the present without in- terest or other compensation. How ever, the investment of most of those mentioned was made with faith in the ultimate success of the property and with spirit of doing their best to assist in the develop ment of the Territory.
 | Lew G. Kay of Seattle is now president of the Company.

CONDUCTED BY MINORITY


 It is increasingly evident that the strike was called, and is being conducted by small minority of the total number of employees. In view of the information at hand, it is fair to ask how long this minority shall be allowed to deprive many people of their means of livelihood and so seriously hinder handicap and eopardiZe the very existence of much of the business of the community.
 We are ready and willing to resume operations. It is indicated that large majority of the employees willing to work the terms prevail ing before the strike was called.
 We recognize responsibilities to the com muny and to employees, and have done every thing to prevent hardship and distress to the community, but cannot resume operations until it can be done on basis that is fair to all employees to the community, and to the sharehold- alike

but it's memory is restored, its ancient
sanctuaries are adorned by new tenn
pies and still it stands.
The ancient city is little more than
a square mile in area. 1t is surround
ed by low wall, inside which things
are much as they have been for hun
dreds of years. All around it is the
great new city. modern and lively, dot
ted here and there by the big religious
and charitable foundations built during
the half-century before the war by the
various Christian churches. They pro-
vide some Of the most conspicuous fea-
lures in the landscape, such as the
Russian cathedral, with its onion
shaped dome, the convent on the Mount
of Olives and the barrack-like hOspice
of Notre Dame de France.
The great interest in Jerusalem, at
this holy season, is not, however, in its
modern aspect, striking as it is. Unique
among all cities Of the world, Jerusa-
lem is holy city to three great faiths,
Judaism, Christianity and Mohamme-
danism. Monuments to the great begin
nings of all three are there and now
after many centuries of bitterness, all
three may worship unhindered at its
shrineS.
To Christians, the most poignant OF
the many tragedies of Jerusalem is the
Crucifxion of Jesus, which many be-
lieve took place nineteen hundred years
ago. Reverent research has ascertained
with fair certainty the scenes of the
last fateful days.
In the wall of Jerusalem there Is
still to be seen the famous Golden Gate,
through which Jesus is said to have
entered on Palm Sunday, when the peo-
pie shouted "Hosanna |" and flung palms
in his path. 1t is also thought to have
been the Gate Beautiful, mentioned in
The Acts. The masonry Is Byzantine,
but it is believed to hide older work.
It is kept walled up. perhaps by rea-

is a small room, six feet by seven and
seven and a half feet high. It is brill
liantly lighted by forty-three lamps
kept burning by the Roman, Greek,
Armenian and Copt churches. Floors,
walls and ceiling are covered with mar

who might chip it.
The Garden of Gethsemane was a
beautiful spot on the side of the Mount
of Olives, across the Brook Kedron, to
which Jesus and his disciples frequent
ly repaired for rest and refreshment.
Formerly, no doubt, much larger, it is
now plot about one hundred and nine
ty-five feet square. There are in it seven
olive trees, the largest being about
twenty-six feet in circumference. If
they are not the original trees that
witnessed the Agony of Jesus in the
Garden, they are certainly off-shoots Of
them. There is definite knowledge that
the trees had been in existence for a
long time in the Seventh century. To
the east of the garden is a rocky mass
where the apostles are said to have
waited while Jesus prayed.

from the Dead sea, the waters of which
I'm clear weather are visible from 1t,
with behind them the somber noun
tains of Moab. IT'S name, observes
writer in the Montreal Herald, occurs
first In history on one of the tablets
found at Tel-el-Amarna, in Egypt, the
date of which is about 400 B. c., con-
tanning a letter written by a prince
ruling Jerusalem under Egyptian suzer-
ainty. On the tablet the name is spelled
Urusalem, which is believed to mean
''city Of security" or Of peace"
The Biblical history of the city is
familiar to all. Melchizedek, who
blessed Abraham, appears in Genesis
as "King Of Salem" The second verse
of the Seventy-second psalm identities
Salem and Jerusalem or Sion, but the
story Of Melchizedek is so obscure that
no one can say when the Holy City
had its beginning Egypt held it for a
time, but about 400 B. c., the Jebu-
sites, a tribe of Canaan, captured and
held 1t for many years. David captured
It from the Jebusites about 1000 B. G
and made it the capital of his kingdom,
and there Solomon built the temple
where now stands the exquisite Mosque
of the Rock. Since David's time the
city has changed hands "a times, being
destroyed and rebuilt again almost as
often. But 1t seems indestructible.

THE Lord is riseni See the cave.
The sepulchre St. Joseph gave
The fast-seaIed rock is rolled away
Come see the place where Jesus lay.
Satan is conquered, and the grave.
Though faith is scorned by fool and knave
Though thieves may mock and rabbles rave
Still do we hear the angel say,
'The Lord is risen!'
You who of sin have been the slave.
Be free, for He who came to save
Has conquered death this Easter day.
Join with the angels as they pray,

of the Rock, which stands in the Har-

rock where Abraham is said to have
made Isaac ready for sacrifice, and
there, too, is the cavern in which David

a round hole in the rock which Is

The temple, which was begun by
