BUCK FOR LIZ RETURN
MAYRE

Not satisfied with a batch of
quintuplet kittens dumped on their
front stoop last week, Archie Lane,
Vic Sieben, and Bill Bryan have
got themselves into another other
over the disappearance Of their pet
Model T Lizzie. Wednesday the
three partners in the ownership of
this once proud Elizabeth were
casting glances askance at eacn
other wondering what the other
knew about the disappearance. Ar
chic had parked the car for the
night in front of his house, when
he got up in the morning she was
gone. Arcie says the other two are
framing him. And Vic AYERS that
Archie will pay dollar reward
for the return of the car, but Ar
chic retaliates with the fact that
Vic will pay the buck reward. So
figure it out for yourself.

NEW EQUIPMENT

Regardless of the success of 9TH
er lines of business we note that
the brewing industry is successful
as taken from the announcement
of Jos. Arneson, of this city, local
representative of the Minneapolis
Brewing Co.. Minneapolis, that the
company this week had put into
use $4,000 worth of new equip
ment to meet increased demands.
The company showed an increase in
business of 50 percent for the first
quarter of 1887 over similar per-
iod last year, and an increase Of
81 percent in volume during 1886
over 1885.

the present colonists can get along
nicely with government aid, and
that some will remain after the
government quits furnishing cred

quit. Although they are unable to
grow corn, the land is rich and
productive, and all other grains do
very well. Their markets must be
local as the Alaskan farmer can
not compete with the farmer of
the States, who can grow cheaper.
There Is a good market for dairy
products in Alaska, and that de-
partment of farming offers great
future, as during the past all dairy
products have been shipped in.
There is a prosperous creamery at
Fairbanks. Mr.. Ross stated that
the Alaska dairyman's advantage
in price over U. S. butter is 2k
cents per pound on the freight
rate. The colonists of Matanuska
Valley have Anchorage and Fair
banks as their market for vegeta-
bles and farm produce. Both Of
those cities are supported chiefly
through mining. Butter prices are
slightly higher than in Alaska, said
Mr.. Ross.
Weather conditions this winter
were unusually mild, with an ex-
cessive amount of snowfall. JAN
uary, usually the coolest month of
the year, was excessively warm,
with rainfall at various periods.
After Mr.. and Mrs. Ross left Alas

A letter from Fairbanks dated

The latter part of each meeting
was spent in studying the proper
conditions for vegetable storage. 1t
was found that the temperature,
humidity and air ventilation was
very important since all vegetables
are classified in three groups in re-

necessary for storage. Some groups
require a cool, moist area, still
others cool dry and such crops as
the vine crops the warm dry room.

MEXICO CITY, February 90
Mexico's religious agitations, which

the northern states of Coahuila and
Chihuahua.
Catholics there demonstrated to en-
force demands for punishment of the
persons who last week killed a Jesuit
priest. Father Pedro Maldonado in

In Vera Cruz the Catholics of Cor
doba successfully resisted attempts of
soldiers to reclose the churches they
forcibly opened last week. They had
been officially closed more than 12
years.
A dispatch from Saltillo, Coahuila,
said police detained a score of Catho-
lies after an unauthorized demonstra-
tion demanding justice for the slayers
of Father Maldonado.
The incident resembled those of last
week at Orizaba and Cordoba, Vera
Cruz Several daring youths scaled
the outside of church towers and rang
long-silent bells during the manifesto
ton. At the time the authorities
made no move to interfere.
Dispatches from Chihuahua City
said the investigating judge had
ordered the arrest of Jesus Salcido,
mayor of the town of General Trias,
and of Policemen Andres Rivera and
Antonio Frescas. They were charged
with beating Father Maldonado with
rifle butts, which fractured his skull
The priest died in Chihuahua City

how the government proposes to settle
the issues raised by the forcible re-
opening of the churches.

New D. c. Committee
Members.

to conduct a special school this week
to familiarize its new members with
the organization of the Municipal
Government, as well as the necessity
for various legislation proposed by the
Commissioners.
Elwood Seal. corporation counsel,
will be the instructor.
The idea was conceived by Chairman
Norton of the committee because she
felt considerable time could be saved
at regular meetings if the new mem
berS understood better just how the
District Government functions and the
reasons underlying much of the legis-
lation proposed by the Commissioners.
House Consent Sought.
The initial session of the school
probably will be held Thursday after
noon if the House consents. Permis-
sion to meet in the afternoon must be
granted by the House under its rules.
Mrs. Norton does not believe a morn
ing session would be successful because
many of the new members are serving
on other standing committees and
would be unable to attend.
Because of the limited powers of
the Commissioners, they are forced
to send to Congress from time to
time recommendations for legislation
to perform an ordinary municipal
function Some of the new members
are puzzled over the procedure and
In regular meetings have asked q
number of questions that have de-
layed the proceedings.
Six New Members.
Mrs Norton believes one or two
classes would be sufficient to familiar
re new members with the District
Government set-up and the necessity
for some of the legislation proposed
by the Commissioners: She also feels
the new members quickly will see
the need of long advocated legislation
to broaden the powers of the Com
missioners.

NEW YORK, February 20.-The
center of gravity-or hilarity-of
blond Peggy Garcia's breach of
promise suit against Dave Rubinoff,
the violinist. shifted southwark TO-
night as authorities sought to check
up on reported matrimonial phases
of the erstwhile hat-check girls
career.
Miss Garcia "a name she borrowed
from cigar box) charges the radio
maestro seduced her in 1888 and
promised to marry her, and she wants
100000. Rubinoff denies the charges.
Her lawyer, Bernard Sander, pre-
pared to leave for Roanoke, Va, to
check up on the defense's assertion
she married a Taylor Vance Quinn
there in 1925.
Sander acted on the order of
Justice Salvatore Cotillo, who ad-
journed the trial from Friday to
Tuesday so few things could be
cleared up.
EIopement is Alleged.
In Roanoke yesterday a laborer,
Cornelius H. Taylor, identified Peggy
from pictures as his daughter and
said she had eloped with a man
named Taylor Quinn in 1925 at the
age of IA.
Miss Garcia says the 1925 marriage
report concerned a cousin Of hers
by the same name who has "disap-
peared," and Sander wants to look
into that. too. Her real name is
Pauline Michelin Taylor.
He planned to bring Taylor and
Miss Garcia's uncle back here to tes-
tify.
Meanwhile Sander scheduled a
conference with her other lawyer,
Perry Bittel, and Rubinoff's lawyer,
Abraham Halprin. who said the con-
clave would produce q "momentous
announcement
Miss Garcia says her contacts with
the violinist began in March, 1888,
when she simultaneously checked
