JUDGE FINNEGAN MAY
DECIDE TO LOCATE HERE
Jack Finnegan, who practices law
in the town of Seward and plays base
ball merely as a pastime, told a bunch
of lobbists at the Anchorage last
night that he was thinking seriously
of moving to Anchorage and hang out
his legal shingle. Attorney Finnegan
modestly carries the honored title of
judge and would be a distinct acquisi
tion to the city. In speaking of mut
ual acquaintances Judge Finnegan
said last night that Sport Smith had
been appointed a reception committee
of one, with powers plenary, by the
Seward council to receive the Anchor
age people coming into Seward, enter
taining them between whiles and see
ing them safely on the outward bound
steamers and in proper shape for the
ride over the winter trail. The selec
tion is appropo for Sport is a royal
entertainer and in the heighth of his
pristine glory when playing the part
of the Samaritan. Among other places
of interest he proudly points out the
site for the proposed cold storage
plant and hurriedly passes by the
large building, with the hesitating re
mark of information that “this was
formerly occupied by the government
office force.”
Judge Finnegan said that Sport al
ways reserves left field of the base
ball diamond for the fitting climax.
Here is a sacred spot, duly marked
with a stone, located 25 feet within the
foul limits and easily discemable from
any umpire’s lofty position, bearing
the truthful inscription, “Here is
where Left Fielder Ryan stood when
he picked up the historic ball that was
called foul.”
Sport feelingly enters into a desser
tation accurately describing the dif
ferent positions of the base runners.
He graphically describes the intense
excitement of the impartial and mag
nanimous Seward rooters. He tells of
the blush of shame that rose to heaven
when the umpire called a foul of the
ball that cost Anchorage three runs
and the game, and he emphasizes the
warlike demonstration of the Seward
rooters at the unfair decision.
He points out second base where
Powery stood when Ben Levine made
the mighty swat to left field; he tells
of Nicholls scoring from first and
draws a line between third and home
and says, “Here is the spot Ben had
reached when the umpire gave his be
lated decision of ‘foul ball.’ ”
Sport was there at the game and
knows whereof he speaks but it isn’t
necessary to rehash the Anchorage
Seward series any further. Judge Fin
negan said that he really thought that
Seward would send a team over to An
Classified Advs.

USES LAMPS TO MAKE
HENS LAY IN WINTER
“When we first lighted the gasoline
lamps in our hen house, the neighbors
thought we had started a dancing
school,” laughingly said Mrs. Barin
ger, one of the most successful poul
try fanciers in the northwest, says the
Boise Times. “They were sure we
were crazy when we paid as high as
$5.00 a setting for eggs, but we didn’t
worry.
“The use of lamps for chickens may
sound queer, but the results speak for
themselves,” said Mrs. Baringer.
“During the winter months a hen
can’t see to scratch her dinner out of
the litter before 8 o’clock in the morn
ing nor after 3:30 p. m. That gives
her but seven and a half hours, and
part of that time she should be on
the nest. During the winter we light
the lamps at 6 in the morning and
have them going in the evening until
8:30. We place the grain in deep lit
ter, and the hens are busy all the
time.”
The Baringer flock laid as well dur
ing the snow and cold of last winter
as it had before and has since. From
November, 1915, to June, 1916, an egg
yield of never less than 70 per cent
was maintained, and often it ran up
to 90 pei- cent.
Except in rare cases of necessity,
which are rare, let your friend learn
unpleasant truths from his enemies;
they are ready enough to tell him.
WHERE MONEY IS USELESS.
The island of Ascension, in the At
lantic, belonging to Great Britain, is
of volcanic formation, eight miles by
six in size, and has a population of
about 450. It was uninhabited until
the confinement of Napoleon at St.
Helena, when it was occupied by a
small British force. It is 250 miles
northwest of St. Helena. Vast num
bers of turtles are found on its
shores and it serves as a depot and
watering place for ships.
Ascension is governed by a captain
appointed by the British admiralty.
There is no private property in land,
no rents, no taxes and no use for
money. The flocks and herds are
public property and the meat issued
as rations. So are the vegetables
grown on the farms. When an island
fisherman makes a catch he brings
it to the guardroom, where it is is
sued by the sergeant major. Practi
cally the entire population are sail
ors, and they work at most of the
common trades. The muleteer is a
jack tar, so is the gardener, so are
the shepherds, the stockmen, the
grooms, masons, carpenters and
plumbers. Even the island trapper,
who gets rewards for the tails of rats,
is a sailor.
The climate is almost perfect. Any
thing can be grown.—Philadelphia
Ledger.
