IDEAS FOR A 8KAL
A bill la being prepared by mem
bers of the House of Representa
tives adopting a new seal for the
Territory of Alaska, and the mem
ber! woul] be pleased to have sug
gestions from residents of the Ter
ritory as 10 a design for a seal.
The teal that Is being used now for
the "District of Alaska," and pas
sage of the organic act for the
Territory removed any and all con
?.rovursy over the question as to
whother or not It Is the "District
of Alaska" or the "Territory of
Alaska." It is conceded now by
those that refused to follow the de
cision of the United States supreme
court that it is the "Territory of
Alaska." Hence the action of the
members of the Legislature In pre
paring a bill establishing a seal for
the Territory. It is planned to In
troduce the bill some time this
week,
A preliminary step toward the
proposition of creating a new seal,
Representative P. M. Boyle, of Val
dez , had passed lu the House a few
days ago a resolution requesting
Gov. Walter E. Clark to submit to
the House all correspondence be
tween hij office and that of the
Secretary of the Territory, William
L>. Distin, in relation to the adop
tion of the seal now used. The
correspondence was submitted to
the Houso this morning.

AN AESTHETIC
WIDOW
Bv M. QUAD
Copyright. IW3. by A??ocl*t?d Ut
?rary Pre*?
Mrs. Abl(rul> Longliody waa ? woman
living In the town of Karmdale. Sbt
was a widow. She waa almotit ?U
feet tall and weighed nearly 200
pounds. Tbe Widow [jongbody bad a
female friend over at Clover Hill, wbo
bad become aesthetic. She saw bean
ty in the despised sunflower. She pal
pitated when sbe saw catnip growing.
She raised her eyes to heaven over
bunduclcs and pigweeds. At tbe first
go off the wtdow laughed about It but
when seriously Informed tbat It was
tbe thing to do sbe adopted It.
Deacon Tracy, widower, bnd been
courting tbe wtdow and bod almost
decided to |*>p tbe question. He bad
dropped In and vfns just clearing bis
throat to say something tbat tbe world
has forever lost when she stopped blm
with:
"l>earon. you look like a fright with
those whiskers, and I bope you will
bave tbem hoed off before you call
again!"
"Hoe off these 'ere whiskers!" be
eiclnlmed In amazement "By gum,
but do you know what you're tallcln'
ibout?"
'Then for mercy's sake get tbem
dyed! Tbe color grates on me!"
"I'd like to see myself feedin' dye to
tbem whiskers! Anything else od your
mind?"
"You drag your legs whenyoa wilkT
"1 do. eh? I remind you of an old
knee sprung borse, do I? Waal, I kin
drag tbem legs right outer yonr bouse
and take my whiskers with 'emP'
Mr. Johnson, wbo bought butter and
eggs and shipped them away to tbe
city, had also an eye on tbe widow
Longbody Sbe always entertained blm
very pleasantly when be called, and be
had t>egun to feel tbe rose of love
blooralug In his heart. On what proved
to lie bis last call tbe widow queried
of him:
"Mr. Johnsou, why don't you wear a
wig?"
"A? a wig?
"Yes. h wig. Vou always alt *10*
your legs poked out like a pair of posta
A mnn with such shanks a* your* ought
to hide 'eni!"
"1 have been Insulted, woman! I'll
leave your house!"
"And have your eyebrows thinned
out!" was the widow's parting shot
In front of the widow Longbody's
borne ran a a i ream they were pleased
to call Plug river A bridge across it
bad long been needed and talked of.
and the county finally voted It
Every bridge In the country dlstrlots
has always been painted red. If painted
at all. It was red for this bridge The
widow was away for three days, and
when she returned the bridge was half
painted.
?Stop, stop! It cannot be! It shall
not be!" cried the aesthetic.
"What's the kick?" asked the man
who hud the work In charge.
"It screams! It bowls! It shrieks!
It murders harmony and kills the land
scape! I could not live here a day with
that red thing staring me In the face
Ugh!"
She was told that she would have to
endure It or move. Aesthetlctsm was
all right when applied to suuflowers
and bull thistles, but when It cam#
down to red bridges that was a mat
ter of business
"Oh, It Is, eh?" was answe.-ed. "Well,
there's another thing that Is a matter
of business."
Along the western aid* of the town
the widow owned a strip of land which
had a hill on It? a hill and a spring
With her free consent the water waa
piped down from the spring to supply
many families and used to sprinkle the
streets. When they refused to change
the color of the bridge the water re
fused to flow downhill. The people
howled, but they were helpless. After
a week It was agreed that the aesthetic
might name the color. She decided on
a pearl gray After a third of the
bridge had been covered she changed
It to vivid green. Then she wanted
white with green trimmings.
"No more fooling!" was the decision
of the taxpayers when they reallied
that the widow Longbodr might final
ly demand that the bridge be covered
with gold leaf.
"Very well," replied the woman as
she prepared her second surprise.
Her husband bad opened a street for
bis own convenience and had never
deeded It to the town People had
bought sites and erected houses. They
suddenly found themselves fenced tn
When they went to the lawyer* the le
gal talent hunted the matter up and
replied:
"If yon touch the fence she can have
you arrested for trespass."
The town hated to be beaten by a
woman and was talking about a big
lawsuit when along came a lightning
rod mnn. He was a Jim dandy of a man
He was a wooer from Wooervllle He
talked and he wooed and be won
In a fortnight he had won tbe widow's
beast and hand. When this fact was
rumored the bridge committee called
un ber to ask:
"Well, what about the bridge?"
"Paint It any old color you want tol"
"And that fence across Klrby street?"
"Tell 'em to tear It down!"
"And you? yon are no longer aea
tbettc?"
"Not by a darned sight! Jim and I
have already settled on corned beef
nnd cabbage for our bridal dinner. Sor
