 Death King George Y

LONDON, Jan: 23.- Kin g Georges body was borne between lanes of hundreds of thousands of sorrowing subjects Thursday and laid to rest in Westminster Hall where the highest and lowest of his subjects may pay homage for five days There will be no dis tinction in rank; the most exalted peer must take his place in the line with the humblest commOner to wait his turn to view the body. The casket moved through the streets on a gun carriage draped with royal mourning, purple and black, with the priceless crown of crown of Great Britain at rest on the royal standard. The multitude stood in silence with bowed heads. Women sobbed silently. The only sound was the rumble of the artil- lery carriage.
 Walking slowly, Edward VIII, followed by his brothers, the Duke of York, the Duke of Gloucester and the Duke of Kent, followed the casket with the other members of the late kings household. Gren- adler Guards flanked the cortege. the drivers of the carriage in full dress uniform and tall white plumes.
 The funeral procession left Kings Cross station and passed through the center of London to Charing Cross and Trafalgar Square, past the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, thence to Westminster where the casket was carried to the catafalque in the center of the lofty chamber.

 While in Seattle recently. Mr. Vickery sold an option on his pIaa- CT properties located on Gold Pan creek, to a grosp of Seattle men. headed by W. W. Scruby and c. C.. Bridgeford.

J. Warra Dies by Own
 Hand at Steamer Bay

John Warra, fisherman. about
 70 years of age, was found deaG
 tuesday morning at Steamer Bay
 y Tom Nelson, another fisherman.
 The body was brought into Wran- sell and a coroner inquest was held by U. s. Commissioner John W. Stedman on Thursday morning. Members of the coroner's jury were II. D. Campbell. L. M. Chur- chill, l. c. Bjorge, A. M. Myers, s. Cunningham and H. b. Phillips.
 The dead man, it was found, had committed suicide sometime about eleven o'clock on Monday night, January 20, by resting his chin on the muzzle of a 30 calibre Spring field rifle and pulling the trigger. The bullet, one of the mushroom type, in it's upward course tore away the entire right side of the head making recognition diffi- cult. When the body was discoy- cred by Nelson it was lying in the cabin doorway of Warras small trolling boat and the rifle was still clutched in his left hand.
 From evidence submitted at the inquest it was revealed that Warra mad been drinking hard four or live days previous to the night oI the tragedy but during the four days just prior to his death had seemed quite sober and in fairIg good spirits.
 From letters found among the mans personal effects it was indl- eated that he has a sister, Mrs Hilda Bjorko living at Deep River, Unless word to the contrary is received from Mrs. Bjork the remains will be buried tomorrow m Wrangell cemetery.

well received and entertained at all ports of call. Stops were also made at Angoon, where the Institute re- serves lost a game, and at Hydabur where no game was scheduled.
 Despite the fact that the boys were engaged in the longest and most strenuous trip ever undertaken by a Southeast Alaska basketball squad, the boys, with the exception of the two injured, returned home in good shape and are playing just as fast ball and with just as much interest as when they started on the trip At Metlakatla they had the dis tinction of being the first visiting team ever to be ahead of the town team on their own floor at the half.
 The Institute players are now content to remain at home with the expectations of playing visiting teams. They are all looking for ward to their remaining two games of the series with Wrangell High the first of which will be played on Jan. 29th on the Wrangell gymnas- ium floor.

N. s. last week expressed through the Sem tinel their thanks to all firms and individuals who made donations of any sort to help them defray the expense of entertaining the delegates and carrying on the work of the Grand Convention which convened in Wrangell Nov. 11-1S,' and pub .inshed list of the cash donations amounting to $87150 which had Oeen received for that purpose.
 A number of persons, states Herbert Bradley, who had charge of collecting the money, on reading tne article immediately confused the i.st with previous donations made during the past four years toward the erection and furnishing of the new A. N. B. hall, and wondered why their name had been omitted from the list of donors.
 Mr. Bradley wants everybody to know that the A. N. B. and A. N. S. members are deeply grateful for all help, but that the list published last week was in acknowledgment of donations made toward conven- ton expense only.
 The A. N. B. announce free dance in their hall Saturday night, Jan. 25, in acknowledgment of the fine support they have had from Wrangell citizens toward building their hall The leaders state that while some support is accorded the A. N. B. in other towns, it is only in Wrangell that the Indians re- ceive strong personal interest from the white race in the furtherance of the objectives of their organiza- tion.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-"A posthumous victory for Huey Long was said to be the result of Lou isiana's primary election h e d throughout the state last Wednes- day. The dead Kingfish may ye; encompass the defeat of Roosevelt, since anti-I;oosevelt "Longites'' con troI Louisiana's ten electoral col Iege votes. In the event of a Third Party movement, the chances Of Roosevelt's defeat are said to be increased, due to the Progressive control of Wisconsin's twelve votes, Farmer-Labor's control of Minne- sota's eleven, and anti-New Deal Governor Talmadge's probable coA- trol of Georgia's g twelve. Dr. Town send could conceivably control Call fornia's 23 electoral votes, due to the fact that Upton Sinclair in 1884 captured California Democrats with a similar appeal to the poverty stricken.

citizens of the country, funds with which to help victims of infantile paralysis and support research eff forts to wipe out the disease itself.
 The President approved the sug- gestion that TO per cent of the pro- eeeds raised by each Birthday Ball be retained in the community to be disbursed to local or adjacent hos pitals, or for the treatment of local infantile paralysis cripples, as each local committee decides. and the other 30 per cent of the proceeds be turned over to the National Com mittee for delivery to the President to be presented by him to the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation for the continuation and extension of it's part in the national fight against infantile paralysis.
 Hospital Benefit
 It was decided at the conference Tuesday to follow this plan in Wrangell. In this way seventy percent of the proceeds will be giv- en to Bishop Rowe Hospital and 3Ol percent will be sent to the national committee for disbursement.
 Eighty of the foremost leaders inI various walks of life in the United 1 States comprise the national com | mittee and each one is enthusiast ically assisting in the nationwide combat against infantile paralysis through the coming birthday balls It will be of local interest to know that Harvey c. Fremming, a broth CT of Mrs. z. M Bradford is one of the committee.
 Loans His Birthday
 For eight years President Frank lin D. Roosevelt, as head of the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation, has been the leader of the movement. For the past two years, under the direction of Colonel Henry L. Doh erty, chairman of the national com mittee for the Birthday Ball for the President, the American public has generously responded to this effort to create funds with which to carry on the fight against h. fantile paral ysis. In accepting Colonel Doherty's suggestion that he again loan his birthday as the occasion for the 1886 Birthday Ball, President Roosevelt said:
 Tt gives me much happiness to lend my next birthday, January 30th, to the national committee for the Birthday Ball for the President for this purpose, in the hope thati this effort will bring Us nearer to te goal of forever ending the tragic of infantile paralysis.
 You know how greatly I appre- ciate all that you have done and are doing in this nationwide fight. May 1 again express through you my gratitude to all those who are my birthday the occasion for serving in this humanitarian cause"
