April 21—American women are bright, dazzling and charming, nays Yoshlo Markino, a Japanese artist, who has returned to his London home after four years in the United States. “A Japanese woman is like the crescent moon,” Markino remark ed, “an English woman, like the full moon—beautiful, and one may look at her, while the American woman is like Circe, dazzling and fascinating.” Markino, who has lived in Eng land 30 years, is giving this month an eahibition of his Impressions of America. “I am convinced that woman is the fundamental sex, man only the supplement,” said Markino. “1 believe that women are greater than men in every way, but up to now they have had little chance of developing themselves.” TENNIS FROCKS MADE OF WASHABLE FROCKS PARIS—A new simple tennis dress is a sleeveless model of heavy washable silk or a new Ro dler fabric which looks like a coarse linen weave but it is in reality pure silk.

A jury some months ago delib erated nearly 70 hours on the charge of murder against the de bonair. sleek-haired young man from Streator, accused of killing his elderly mother, considered 1 wealthy by Streator standards. Three times the jurors reported a disagreement, and finally they j were discharged by Judge Joe A. j Davis of Princeton, who sat through the eight weeks of the trial. Of the four attorneys who de fended Hill, death removed one from the case and the others with drew, pleading ill health. A. E. Butters, Ottawa, will act as Hill's chief counsel at the retrial. Four inches beneath the sur-j face of her basement floor the j body of Harry’s mother, Mrs. Eliza j A. Hill, was found last August by j investigators for her divorced hus band. I>r. H. C. Hill. The son i was not to be found, and a na-l tion-wide hunt resulted in his ar rest on the Pacific coast. Two weeks were taken to select a jury to try him, and the follow ing six weeks of testimony were featured by the state’s star wit ness, an old German gardner at the Hill home, Peter Busch. Stoop ed, gray, tieless, the laborer held the crowded courtroom spellbound as he told of being taken into the basement of the Hill home by Harry. There on a warm August dtjy the young man pointed to a fresh ly upturned plot of clay In a dark little side room. “Pack it down well, to the levr 1 of the bricks, and don’t dig any farther,” the gardener (juoted the boy as having said. The defense consisted principal ly of character witnesses. Harry denied categorically that he knew anything of his mother’s death. Her will loft her $50,000 estate to him.

Attractions At Theatres "LEFTY" FLYNN AT COLISEUM TONIGHT J Dramas of the Canadian North west and the Royal Northwest Mounted Police have been turned out by the hundreds, but in re allsm, in sustained interest and In all-around dramatic force, “Glenister of the Mounted,” ‘'Def ty” Flynn's latest release through F. B. O. is by far the most note worthy. The picture, which will have Its first showing tonight at the Coliseum Theatre, was adapt ed by William E. Wing from a magazine story by Arthur Guy fcrnpey, and presents vividly the problems the men of the Mounted have to face. A thrilling race for life before the storm-fanned crest of a forest life, and the solving of an intri cate web of circumstantial evi dence in which the lives of a t than and a woman are entangled, are only two of the more spec tacular features of this groat pic ture, which was directed by Harry Garaon. The alternate conflict of emotion that faces the policeman, r torn between loyalty to his oath and love for the girl for whom he holds a murder warrant, afford unlimited scope for Flynn’s re markable acting. “UPSTAGE” SHOWING LAST TIME, PALACE y It sounds great to be a vaude ville actress—with a handsome dancing partner, gay clothes and the spotlight, applauding crowds, ahd all that.

ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. COOLIIMiE ON JACKSON. The rugged figure of Andrew Jaekson was accepted last week by President Coolidge, on behalf of the Nation, to join the solemn circle of bronze and stone likenesses of the great which stand under the dome of the Capitol. In accepting the statue of “Old Hickory” from the State of Tennessee as a contribution to Sta tuary Hall, Mr. Coolldge paid tribute to Jackson as one who exemplified the unlimited opportuni ties offered to men, regardless of seeming handi caps. History accords to Jackson “one of the high positions among the great names of our coun try,” Mr. Coolidgc said. “He gave to the na tionalistic spirit through loyalty to the Union a new strength which was decisive for many years. His management of our foreign affairs was such as to secure a wholesome respect for our Government and the* rights of our citizens. He left the Treasury without obligation and with a surplus. “Coming up from the people, he demonstrated that there is sufficient substance in self govern ment to solve the important public questions and rise superior to a perplexing crisis. Hike a true pioneer, he broke through all restraints and impediments into which he was born, and leaving behind the provincialisms and prejudices of his day, pushed out toward a larger freedom and a sounder government, currying the country with him.” The President sketched .rackson's boyhood, young manhood, and the period of his service in Congress and as President, speaking of his high and turbulent temper, his disregard of obstacles, and his notable military exploits. In speaking of the pioneer spirit of the early settlers, President Coolidgc said “the frontier long since has disappeared, the opportunity for ex ploration into infrequented land is gone, we seek no additional territory, but the ambition to enter unchartered regions of industry, of enterprise, of social relations and of thought continues with increasing fervor. “We would miss much of the significance and meaning of the history of the United States un less we took into account this outstanding qual ity,” he said. “Our whole outlook has been great ly influenced by it. It is the complete antithesis of all system of class and caste. The peo ple who came here were seeking freedom of action and freedom of mind. The great revelation of our country has been that men are not born to servitude and obscurity. They are born to all the possibilities of a glorious station which can be won by their own achieving.” President Coolidgc also praised Jackson's af fection for his wife, Rachael, in whose benign presence he said the turbulent warrior was all submission. “if at times he was high tempered and over bearing,” he said, “there is no fairer story ol chivalrous devotion and affectionate considera tion than that which lie lavished upon his wife.’ The statue Is in bronze and is about sever feet high. It shows Jackson in a standing atti tude in the battle with the British at New Or leans. II is mounted on a marble pedestal twi feet high. SALVATION ARMY DRIVE The Salvation Army is conducting itH annua drive in Juneau for funds for the coming year Major Carruthers is here from Wrangell assist int the local officers of the Army In the work. It ii announced that it iB not the purpose to collec as much money this year as was asked for las year. More was needed last year for the pur pose of building the hall on Willoughby Avenue There should he a generous response to tie Salvation Army’s needs. No organization in tie country makes money go further and brings bet ter results than this organization. That is on reason why it is always able to be modest In it requests for funds. It has set the amount tha Juneau will be asked for at $1,000. That sun should be quickly forthcoming. It is not larg when the work performed is taken into account Major Carruthers pavB just tribute to th local officers of the Salvation Army when h says their work in this vicinity lias been no tab I efficient and beneficial. Capt. and Mrs. Edward have won the respect of all the people by thel zeal and faithfulness in well doing. THE PRIMARY ELECTION. Every voter in Alaska who is a Kcpublica or a Democrat ought to go to the polls Tuesda and Vote in the primary election of his part] This applies, of course, with more urgency t Republicans than to Democrats, for there are n contests for place on the Democratic Ticket, be Democrats, too, ought to vote in their party pr mary. Their candidates ought to be made to fe« that they have the interest and barking of theii party members. It is particularly -important that Republican! should vote in the primary. The Republicat l’arty of Alaska is—or ought to be—a part o: the Republican Party of the Nation. It will havi two delegates to the National Convention when a Republican Party platform of principles wil be prepared and where the leadership of th| rings i -e BERRY’S TAXI Cadillac and Marmon' Cars Stands at Gastineau Hotel and Burford’s Corner PHONE 199 OR 314 MILLER’S TAXI Phone 183 Juneau, Alaska CARS WITHOUT DRIVERS FOR HIRE Day and Night Service PHONE 485 BLUE BIRD TAXI 8HORTY GRAHAM Stand at Bill'a Barber Shop r J BURFORD’S CORNER PIG'N WHISTLE CANDT None Better—Box or Balk m»W( to start on a Kurope-to-Ameriea flight with a woman as his com panion,” replied Jenkins. More or Less True The flapper wants boyish lines, but she certainly isn't aiming to make a GOOD boy of herself. Another thing hard to under stand is why at a dress affair you see so darn little dress. Virtue may get discouraged at times, but it is not quite as out of-date yet as the red flannel un derwear and long skirts. The girl who thinks it’s grand that he is so gallant he will put on her galoshes for her will find 10 years later he would let her get out in the rain and change the dod-gasted tire if she would do it. When a woman is writing a let aho rmiv pnnsult fho flirHnnnrv to find words to express herself, blit she doesn't need it when she is expressing her opinions of him to father. Some men are so stubborn it kind of surprises you that they have ears just like human beings. Probably the reason romance dies with a man so much sooner than it does with a woman is lie cause about the least romantic thing in the world is keeping the nose to the grindstone so the butcher, the baker and the candle stick maker can have a chance to receipt their bills. Young people declare they want to have a good time when Ihey are young, but they learn too late that often means some darn bad times when Ihey get older. The greatest objection to a i comfortable bed is that it is too blame hard to get out of in the morning. I The impression you get from giving ttie girls you pass on the streets the once over is that the manufacturers of rouges and lip sticks are making too much money. TAXICAB THE PRESIDENT Phone 2.T7.

MUD BATHS SAVES AILING RACE HORSE DAX, France, April 21—A course of mud baths saved Oriilemont, one of France’s great racehorses, from the slaughter-house. Eight months ago Oriilemont was so stricken with rheumatism that his owner, as a humanitarian measure, considered destroying him. As a last resource he de cided to try on his horse what doctors were advocating for hu man beings, and Grillemont for weeks on end patiently suffered himself to be plastered with hot mud and steaming water. Now. say the veterinarians, he has completely recovered, and to celebrate his return to health won a fast race over a mile and a half course. So outstanding wa3 his performance that the government stud at Oelos, in the department of Basses-Pyrenees. bought him at auction for 600,000 francs ($24, 000).

HUGE ALASKA ISLAND FARM BE DEVELOPED Picturesque Figure of North Plans to Raise Cattle, Sheep and Fox Under a two column headline and with a two column picture of Jack McCord and Ills wife, the following item appears in a recent issue of the Seattle Daily Times: Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, widow of tlie late President Roosevelt, with Theodore Roosevelt 111 and a party of New York bankers, will be in Seattle next year enroute to Alaska, according to .Jack McCord, picturesque figure in tlie develop ment of the resources of the nor them territory. Mr. McCord sailed from Seattle Saturday morning aboard the Al-i aska Steamship Company's liner Aleutian, bound for Sitkalidak j Island, where he Is establishing j a great, sheep and cattle ranch He is accompanied by Mrs. Me Cord. Mr. and Mrs. T. MacCullocb and Miss Helen Darker, who wiill spend tlie spring and summer in Seward. Bankers in Party In the Roosevelt party will be R. R. Hertron and Rodman E. Gris enm, banker.! witli offices at 401 Wall Street. Mr. Oriscom lives at Oyster Hay and is a close friend of the Roosevelts. “I was told in New York that Mrs. Roosevelt, "Teddy” the third, Mr. Hertron and Mr. Oriscom, i have made all arrangements t visit Alaska.” said Mr. McCord. "They are not looking for invest-; ments and have no desire to ex plolt tlie territory, but wisli to get j first hand information of the great northern country and pos-! sibly will do some big game hunt- j ing. To Leave in Spring “They will leave New York next spring for Seattle and Alaska, j Archie Roosevelt also is much in-i terested in the northern country hut will be unable to make the trip.” Mr. McCord said he has cattle, sheep and 118 blue fox on Sitka-1 lidak Island which is off the south- east corner of Kodiak Island.

He is president of the Me- j Cord Alaska Company with of fiees in New York and Seward.; Mr. McCord lias leased Sitkalidak I Island through the Land Office, j Department of the Interior.

Prospects for Oil At the present time he Is most interested in prospecting for od and companies to develop it ami the organization of the sheep, lilue fox, and cattle industry on a 250. 000 acre ranch on Sitkalidak Island. “Everything in Alaska Interests me,” said Mr. McCord. “Furs, reindeer, game, fish, gold, copper, coal, timber, pulpwood, petroleum and the scenery. They all attract nip and I am ready to lake a fly er at any time. 1 just simply can't resist Alaska. I always go back.” Mr. McCord, who is said to ^iave suggested the character of “Pan Appleton,” In Hex Heath’s "Iron Trail.” said another Alaska, boom is coming. He believes it will come as sud denly as the gold rush of the Klondyke days, but will be more substantial and will mean lasting benefit to the northern territory.

GOV. PARKS TO LAUNCH LOCAL FORESTS WEEK American Legion An nounces Plans for Ob serving Forest Week Local observance of American Forest Week, April 22-28, which is sponsored by Alford John lirad ford Post of the American le gion. will be initiated Monday af ternoon by Gov. George A. Parks, when he addresses the students of the Juneau public school at 1 o'clock. His subject will he "The Objects of American Forest Week.” The Legionnaires have arranged for speeches at all schools on Gastineau Channel during the week. In addition a special win dow display will be exhibited at the Juneau-Young Hardware Com pany, which will include an Alas kan spruce, various kinds and grades of timber and a piece of petrified wood, relic of Alaskan forests of the pre-glacial age. Importance of Forests In a proclamation issued March 10, Gov. Parks, who is Territorial Chairman of the American Forest Week movement, called attention to the paramount importance of Alaska’s forests, saving: "Alaska is vitally Interested in the utilization of its forest and grazing lands. The future pros perity of our Territory depends fii a large degree on our ability to derive the maximum yield from these resources In a manner which will not deplete nor destroy them. Our vast forests and large areas of grazing lands are almost untouched at present and there is yet time for us to adopt ade quate measures for their protec tion.” In concluding, he urged “all the people of the Territory to join in the proper observance 'f this week that thoughtful consideration be given to the problems involved In the preservation and perpetua tion of our forests.” Weisel to Speak Other speakers scheduled for talks during the week are G. F. Weisel, Assistant Manager of Ju noau Lumber Mills, M. L. Merritt, Assistant District Forester, and E. M. Goddard, Assistuut Execu tive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission. Mr. Weisel was Montana State Chairman for two years for Ameri can Forest Week. He is an ex perienced timber man and fores ter. His first talk will be made at the public school at 1 p. m. Wednesday on the subject, "For ests as they affect your country and your individual future.” As an officer in the Forestry branch of the American Army in France, Mr. Weisel had an opportunity to study the problems of lands long rut over and methods of dealing with them. His Jogging experi ence in Wisconsin and Montana provided a similar opportunity. In his talk to the students he will tie these experiences into his ob servaiions of Alaskan timber lands. On Friday, Mr. Weisel will speak to the Chamber of Com merce on the subject, "Forest Eco nomics as Affecting the Future of Alaska.” Forests and Wild Life Monday, Mr. Goddard will talk to the pupils in the local Indian school on “The effects of forest and timber fires on game anil land fur-bearing animals, and birds." Mr. Merritt, who is now in Ket chikan, is expected to return in time to address the students of the local ParochiaJ school and the Douglas public school. The dates and subjects of these addresses have not been definitely fixed. In case he should not return in time to take part in the observance, some other speaker will be ob tained. Trees and History A striking visualization of the age of trees will be the aim of the central object In the American Legion's window display in the store-room of the Juneau-Young Hardware Company. This will In* the butt section of a Sitka spruce, four and one-half feet in diameter. Foresters, by a check of the annual growth rings, estimate that the tree from which it was cut was a year-old sprout, shooting its way upward in the shadows of a then mature forest long since de cayed and returned to the earth from which it sprang, when Co lumbus first viewed the new world. It was a lusty sapling of “DOC” JACK NORRIS Certainly knows his Pharma ceuticals. We unhesitatingly declare he is one of the best registered men in Alaska. He has had about 23 years of ex perience.

For the year 1928-1929 budget expenses will be $55,000, $30,000 of which is to come from Terri torial funds, the remainder being asked from the city. According to a printed budget of regular expenses of the last th|ee years, teaching expenses have been by far the largest ex pense and this has been increas ing each year. In 1925-26 the to t^il was $40,101.22, of which $29, 050 was for teachers. The facul ty received $33,109.08 of the 1920 27 budget which totalled $41, 732.33.

WATER SUPPLY IS SHORT HERE BY LOW TEMPERATURES With a temporary snortage in the Juneau Water Company's tanks, local residents are again asked to waste as little water as possible, it was announced today at the office of the City Clerk, and sections of the water waste ordinance are being printed in to day’s issue of the Empire. Minard Mills, superintendent of the Juneau Water Company, said this afternoon the tanks had more water in them today than yester day due to the rise in temperature and light rainfall during the last 24-hour period. Freezing temperatures in the Silver Bow Basin during the mid dle of the week nearly depleted the supply, he declared, and with little drainage from the basin flowing into the reserves, water was practically exhausted. The Alaska Juneau turned some of its water supply into the city tanks to relieve the shortage, he said. i Waste of water by local resi dents is probably not the cause of the shortage, asserted Mills, but added that during the next few days as little water as possible should be wasted.
