It is a romantic comedy with music, but there are no choruses, no ballets, no ensembles, —nothing but vivid reglism in the picture’s reproduction of the cafe life of Budapest, where laws bow to romance, where sentimental dilly-dallying has all the dignity of a national sport, where cafe brawls are as readily accepted as an April shower, and of Hungar- ian country life, with people liv- ing and fighting and drinking and hunting as they did ip the days of the Third Crusade. This is the background of the delightful photo- play.

Carl Ander- son, master of the steamer Starr, residents of Anchorage and Sew- ard, were arrested on the charge lot conspiring to violate the Alas- k& game regulations. ' + Lasted Four Days | ’After a trial of four days hefore | the United States District Court in Anchorage recently, Koslosky and Anderson were acquitted. Their ac- | quittal however, does. not imply |that anyone can safely claim the {pelts. Any person making and sub- stantiating ‘such a claim would be 1accused and arrested of illegal pos- session of the skins. So the govern- iment is confident of retaining | them. Witnessis Return Home M. S. Sides, deputy Collector of Customs here; P. H. Peters of the | Customs House in Seattle, and H. W. Terhune, executive ofifcer of the Alaska Game Comimission, wére witnesses for the government at the trial in Anchorage. They came south on the steamship Alas- ka, Mr. Sides and Mr. Terhune gét- ting off the vessel here and Mr. | Peters continuing aboard of her to Beattle. | *“The trial was expensive,” de- clared ‘Mr. Sides, but all the ex- pense and additional loss, besides, |must be borne by the owner Or jowners of the pelts. After defray- |ing eosts of litigation, the govern- ment will net a nice profit from the sale of the unclaimed skins.” {AUTO AMBULANCE PUT INTO SERVICE ' For general service, an automo- bile ambulance has been: received by the Packard Taxi Company, Miles Godkin, proprietor.

Each brings out the best in the other— creating extra mildness, natural sweetness, and far better taste. Chesterfield holds everlastingly to higher standards— BETTER TOBACCOS, the mildest and ripest Turkish and ‘Domestic tobaccos that can be bought.
