SEATTLE, June 1.-The Rt. Rev Peter Trimble Rowe, 85, head of the Episcopal diocese of Alaska since 1895, and called The Bishop of all outdoors" died at his home in Victoria at 7:15 o'clock this morning the Diocesan office here announces.
 When he went to the far north sea, the great open spaces became his church and he was obliged to adapt himself to the conditions ex- isting in that undeveloped country.
 A pioneer among teachers of Christianity in that region, he had to travel by canoe in the summer and on foot over the frozen track less wastes in winter to reach the Eskimos, Indians, adventurers and other trail blazers.
 His aptitude for carpentry served the bishop well in his early days. He made his own lumber and built his beats and various missions that dot the northern country bear test mcny to his handiwork.
 The great gold rushes only ser ved to make Bishop Rowe's task more difficult. In addition to teach ing Christianity he was obliged to peddle it among the people in competition with interests other than religion which brought them there.
 Builds Churches
 With his own hands he built the first church at Nome during enc of the rushes, then continued on to Fairbanks where another church was erected In a rush at Cordova the bishop followed and there be- came competitor with saloon men in bidding for the only lumber available. The bishop got it and built a clubhouse for the men, destined to be the only counter at traction to IA saloons.
 Following the trail in the wilder ness, travelling by canoe and snow- shoe and camping under the open sky even in severe winters were only part of Bishop Rowe's every day life. He was admittedly the best musher in Alaska in the early days and was conspicious for his courage in a land of brave men. Having gone into Alaska before the gold rushes, Bishop Rowe became a familiar figure to those who were lured there in quest of the precious metal.
 Bishop Rowe was born at Meadow vile, Ontario. November 20 1856. He was graduated from the Univer- sity of Trinity College, Ontario, and early in 1878 went to Algomah

(By Associated Press)

Successfully parrying a thrust in the harbor of Sydney, Australia, by a force of Japan's midget sub marines; successful Allied raids on Japanese island bases facing Aus tralia, and the valiant efforts of the Chinese to check Japans offensive in Chekiang Province, are reported as the major developments in the Far Pacific war
 Midget subs, apparently the two man type the Japs used fruitlessly at Pearl Harbor, ran into thunder ing shellfire and depth charges in the Sydney harbor Sunday night and three of them were probably de- stroyed. This may have been the entire force. Apparently they stole into the harbor from mother ship lying off southeastern Australia. Be- fore destroyed, the subs sank an old ship used as ferry
 Allied air forces from bases on Australian soil started large fires and wrecked docks, airdromes and also enemy logdments at Timor and northeastern New Guinea.
 Gen. Douglas MacArthur's head. quarters also report that just be- fore dawn yesterday, Japanese es- tablishments at Lac, New Guinea. were bombed so suddenly that only one fighter got off to oppose the raiders.
 Last Saturday night the Allies struck Koepang airdrome, doing heavy damage, it is said.

MIR. JOE TURP WRITES
FROM BROOKLYN

DEAR SIR last night my wife Ethel and
went 10 her mons house for supper and her
pops was there and so was an old buddy of his
by the name Of Jack Dunphy and after supper
we was sitting around talking and DUMMY ses
what we need in this war is more band music
and more soldier psrades to make people feel
enthusiastic
ETHELS POPS ses that idea is no better
than any Of your others especially the soldier
parades. don Z mind the band music but its a
terrible injustice to make the soldiers march
around in parades. Their feet generally hurt
them bad enough as it is without making them
do any extra marching.
DBNPHY SEES yes but it would stir the
people up to hear the music and TO see the
soldiers like it did in '9s when we went to fight
the Spaniards.
ETHELS POPS ses Dunphy don't re-
member you going to fight the Spaniards in
'9s so where do you get that wei All / remem-
Der is seeing you standing on the sidewalk
hollering give 'em hell for me when marched
past.
DUNPHY SEES we'll I was with you in
spirit so il was the same as going myself. l re-
member like it was yesterday how enthusiastic
it made me feel to hear that band and to see
the soldiers marching along with the people
cheering and the girls running out and stick
ing flowers in the muzzles of the guns the boys
were carrying on their shoulders.
ETHELS POPS ses suppose rnat crack
is to remind me of the trouble had with Clar-
ence Mulcahy Dunphy ses no. had forgotten
all about that. m sorry brought it up. can
see now why you are opposed to parades saw
Mulcahy the other day. He is still on the cops
but he is commencing to look old. He ought to
be about ready to retire.
ETHELS POPS ses don Z care anything
about him and Ethels mons ses how is his wife
Bessief Ethels pops ses dom care anything
about her either. Mons SEES am commencing
to remember things myself. Didn't you have
a big fight with Clarence over heri
ETHELS POPS ses we'll busted his nose
for him if that's what you call big fight. 1t
was like taking candy from baby to lick him
And it wasn't over her. 1t was mistake.
SES never heard that story popsi He
ses it isn't any story. The girls were running
out from the sidewalk when our regiment was
marching through Flatbush avenue and stick
ing flowers down the muzzles of our guns like
Dunphy ses. They were those old fashioned
Springfield rifles that you could stick your fist in
Bessie Mulcshy pushed some roses with long
stems down the muzzle Of my gun and left
them there until we got on the train. Her name
was Bessie Flynn then
