ALASKA CIRCULAT THAN THAT OF TRIANGLE BUILDING COMPLETED. Another section of this issue of The Empire is devoted to the Triangle Building, situated in one of the strategic locations in the business center of of old shacks Juneau, where it repla a group that had become an eye-sore to residents and visit- ors. Its location is such that it has added more to the appearance of the town than any other building in it, notwithstanding that we have build- ings that are more imposing and which cost more money. The structure is an enterprise for which the people are obligated to N. G. Nelson, John Rustgard and the Warrack Construction Company. The own- ers of the building and Mr. Warrack believed the that the good old standard pea-soup fog is a thing| occasion of its completion was one that was worth commemorating, and they offered threc prizes to the school children of Juneau in a competitive contest for the best description of the structure. There were eighteen contestants. Their produc- tions were all believed to possess sufficient merit to warrant their publication, and they appear in the Triangle Building Section. They speak for themselves. The Empire again pays its tribute to the enter- prising men who at a cost approaching $100,000 acquired the site and erected the modern business building that will stand out in the heart of the City and contribute materially to the first impl‘GS-jvices on factory chimneys have contributed also.mes sion that a visitor gains. K. K. RESENT HONOR TO UNDERWOOD. The Alabama K. K. K. outfit is again up in arms. The Legislature of the State authorized the Governor, who was elected with Klan assistance, to name the sixteen bridges being constructed by the State over the larger Alabama rivers for prom- inent Alabamians who have figured in the history of the State and country. Gov. Graves has named the first three of the bridges for Gen. William C. Gorgas, who conquered yellow fever and malaria in the Panama Canal Zone; Admiral Rafael Semmes, illustrious Confederate naval officer who commanded the famous commerce destroyer Alabama, and Sen- ator Oscar W. Underwood. It was the compiment to Underwood, relentless foe of religious intolerance, that roused Klansmen ire. It is believed to be further evidence that Gov. Graves and his political associates have definitely thrown the K. K. K.| overboard. Gov. Graves says the honor was due to the memory of Senator Underwood as the most dis- tinguished among Alabama statesmen. FEMALE RELATIVE OF GEN. LEE BECOMES SHERIFF. Mrs. Jennie Lee Walker, grand-niece of Gen. Robert E. Lee, the mother of four children, was elected Sheriff of Knox County, Kentucky, at the recent election, though a Democrat. The County is normally Republican by a majority of four to one, but Mrs. Walker got a majority of 366. It is understood that her husband, who is a Republican, will be her chief deputy. He was a candidate for the Republican nomination and won it in the primaries but lost out in a contest. This is prob- ably a new record for the Lee family, but it is an honorable one.

It was not to be expected that the Prime Min- |ister's speech in the House should add much to the knowledge we already have concerning his visit | to the United States. Nevertheless he was to report, and it was worth while that he should, if only to emphasize once more the ambassadori nature of his visit. He ground no party axe while |he was over there, and both Mr. Baldwin and Mr Lloyd George bore ungrudging witness_to, the strict- | |ly non-partisan character of his speeches. They were equally agreed that his visit had been wholly successful, though Mr. Lloyd George would have liked a little more information about the subjects ‘ululm discussion and their outcome. One doubts if there was very much by way of positive agree- ment beyond what the world already knows. Cer- tainly there was rothing which could be interpreted as forestalling the Five-Power Disarmament Confer- ence. On the other hand, there was probably a great deal of general discussion on a wide variety of topics such as would be natural between |educated American and Englishman meeting for the |first time and anxious to understand one another. It was on the attainment of mutual sympathy ithrough such informal but illuminating talks be- tween | visit largely depended. jcept that both Mr. seem highly contented. |joyed a great popular success is certain.

Of that we know little, ex- Hoover and Mr. | Vanishing London Fogs. (New Yorx Times.) At least half of the everlasting talk that goes |on about the weather is concerned with changes {in climate. Winters are not so cold as they used to be, Spring comes much later in the year. We |don't get any of your old-fashioned snows before |Christmas. And now a London dispatch reports of the past. | The thick yellow blanket of solid fog which used to descend periodically over the city, slowing down |trains to a snail's pace, tying traffic in knots and |turning familiar streets into mysterious and fear- some chasms, is no longer one of the sights of |London. There are still fogs, it is true, but paler in color, easier to see through. | Americans spending their first Winter in Lon- {don lament that they are being cheated of this |show. What romance and adventure to be lost lon your doorstep in a proper pea-soup fog! Brit- ‘1shers explain that modern heating methods, which |employ gas, electricity or steam heat, have cut down fog density.

As he saw the Little Black Clock he waved and the Little Black | Clock waved back. Then John and Peggy waved. As the visitor came near, carry- |ing a suitcase in each hand, he said fi“H(‘llO” | Just saying that one word seemed to send a gust of chilly wind right | through them. | The Little Black Clock asked him |to sit down. He was tall and }lhin His clothes looked rather | blown and untidy as if they were {not completely dry and had never !been pressed. | From his hat were feathers that looked like they might have been made of frost, and at the edges of his cuffs were trimmings that re- minded Peggy and Jim of small thin icicles. “Hello,” he said again. John and Peggy said “Hello,” too. “It was nice of you to ask me to stop here for a bit, and take a |rest before continuing my journey,” he told the Little Black Clock. “It's a nice morning, isn't it?” he asked The children knew from this that the Little Black Clock had turned the time back to the morning. “I have to come to get everything ready for my family,” the visitor {went on. “You know how people choose some one to go ahead and lopen up a house that has been |closed for a season, or some one has to open up a school after the holidays—well, I'm somewhat like that. Only I'm very, very differ- ent.” “Goodness!” said the Little Black | Clock, » “you will certainly puzzle John and Peggy. “Won't you ex- plain yourself more clearly?” “Surely,” came the answer. And he did. THE HOME BOARDING HOUSE | Formerly Dr. Pallister's Hospital will be operated by Mrs. Bertha {Rennan, the owner of the build- «ing, after December 12th.
