OFFICE OF A. J. DIMOND Delegate from Alaska
 (By J. J. ECKLES)
February 8, 1886.

The Post Office Appro- priqtion Bill for the fiscal year 1887, which passed the House February 2, car ries an item of $207,245 for star route service in Alaska including the routes where mail is carried by airplane, This is an increase of ST. 245 over the appropriation made for the fiscal year 19- 36, but is $242,755 less than the amount requested by the Post Office Department and passed by the Bureau of the Budget,
 The amount requested was $450, 0,OOO. The Depart ment intended, if S450, 900 was appropriated, to esta- blish and maintain a ser vice of mail by air between Juneau and Fairbanks via Whitehorse and to include a branch line departing from Tanana Crossing, go- ing thence to Corodova, Val dez. Anchorage and Sew ard.
 The appropriation asked for also contemplated more frequent service, and ser vice both summer and win ter to Nome, to the lower Kuskokwim and to Bristol Bay. The Post Office De- partment very earnestly urged an appropriation for the full amount but the House came to the conclu- sion that, in view of the need for economy some where. new service of this kind might be deferred for the present.
 Delegate Dimond propos- ed an amendment on the floor when the bill came up for action to restore the full amount of $450,0OO for this item as recommended by the Department and ap- proved by the. Budget. Re- presentative Zioncheck of Washington, as a compro- mise, offered an amend ment to the Dimond amend ment to fix the amount at $35O,0O0. The need of an

increase was explained by the Delegate and by MT. Zioncheck, and Represent ative Compton White of Id aho. The House finally, af- ter some parliamentary maneuvering, voted down the entire proposition and left the amount in the bill for this item at $207, ,245. The Congressional Record of February ' shows pre- cisely what was done.
 The Delegate intends to appear before the Senate Appropriations Committee and ask that the amount of this item be advanced to $450,000 and thus give the people of Alaska a much improved mail service.
 Two bills were introduce ed in the House by Dele gate Dimond last week. One is to authorize the city of Wrangell to undertake construction and improve mentS of the streets, sew CTS, water system, harbor float, and other municipal public works, and to issue bonds for such purposes up to the amount of $90,000.
 The other bill is to auth orize a survey of Lowell Creek near Seward to de- determine what modiica- tion should be made in the existing project for the con trol of its floods. In connec- ton with this flood control

WI Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel G.
4 Sands, on Saturday morn
ing, brought out large field, for it
was an ideal morning for fox hunt
ing, with just enough snap and frost
in the air.
BY $50, the place was filled with
lovely thoroughbred horses, being led
around by grooms, and men and
women. dressed for the hunt, were
arriving by motor. Driving to the
meet. one passed many who lived near
enough to hack their horses over,
but there were vans on every corner
of the road, transporting horses from
a distance. Benton, lovely, rambling
red brick house, with q background
of large trees, lockwood hedges and
shrubbery everywhere, was q beautiful
setting.
The lawn was crowded with those
who had come to follow the hunt, and
many that had come merely to look on
at this gay scene. Mrs. Sands was
everywhere at once as she welcomed
her many guests. Miss Charlotte H.
holland. in a dark green habit (she
rides side saddle) and Daniel G..
Sands, in pink coat, white riding
breeches and black boots, co-masters
of the hunt, were standing together
ready to mount at 9 o'clock, for all
masters must be on time.
Hounds followed by Bob Maddux,
huntsman, and Charlie George and
DR.. Crump, whips, came down the
driveway from the stables. and there
was an air of excitement over the
whole place. With few cracks of the
whip from Maddux, these famous
hounds stood obligingly long enough
to have their pictures taken by the
many photographers present. As
Miss holland and Mr.. Sands mounted
their waiting horses, that was the
signal for all to get ready to start.

Benton to see them ride down the

"RENDEZVOUS" REVIVED
TO PLAY LITTLE HEATER
William Powell and Rosalind Rus
sell Seen in Fast Comedy
Melodrama.

THE cinema manifestation of the
talents of Bella and Samuel Spe-
wack. whose comedy. boy Meets
Girl" opened last night at the Ma
tional. may be seen this week at the
Little Theater, where Rendezvous" is
being revived. They are two of the
four authors credited with the screen
play of the William Powell film about
spies and intrigue and love and en-
ciphering and deciphering and gun
play, and their deft touch is noted
more than once. They no doubt have
been responsible for lot of the COM
edy in this melodrama.
Somebody else probably has been re-
sponsible for the melodrama in this
comedy-likely Herbert o. Yardley.
from whose American Black Cham
Der" the film derived. 1t doesn't really
matter who injected what into the
script. though. just as long as they
injected 1t. The result is as enter
tanning an example of melodrama in
the light comedy manner as you could
want on the first half Of Christmas
week. If you want any melodrama in
the light comedy manner on the first
half OF Christmas week.
Mr.. Powell and his leading lady,
Rosalind Russell. also have much to
do with the entertaining manner and
engaging ways of this faSt-moving
tale of the adventures encountered by
a fellow who wanted to go to war
and do his share Of fighting, but who
got tied to desk in Washington be-
cause he could decipher code quicker
