LONDON, April 4.—The partial
suspension of hostilities among the
opposing armies on the Western
front, is giving greater prominence i
these days to aerial activities, which 5
appear to be growing steadily in
importance.
British airmen continue" to make
daily raids on the German lines and
are operating with highly satisfac
tory results, according to informa I
tion given out by the war office j
today. Thirteen enemy machines ;
are reported to have been shot j
down yesterday and eight others |
were forced to the ground out of!
control. Only six of the British !
planes failed to return to their!
hangars.

NEW PAPER FOR CORDOVA
Lloyd Stickler, the well known
printer and publisher,, was a pass
enger on the Victoria on her recent
trip from the westward, enroute to
Cordoa, where he will start a weekly
paper and job office, later develop
ing it into a daily if the patronage
waranted it. Mr. Stickler has se
cured an option on the Will Steel
plant, which has been stored in Cor
dova for some time, but it is in
first class condition. As he is a
young man of ability and a hustler
he will undoubtedly give the citi
zens of Cordova a good paper.—

JURY COMPLETED
IN U. $. VS. GRAY;
HEARING STARTS
Sixty Veniremen Called Before the
Necessary Number of Jurors
Were Secured.
FAIRBANKS. April 4—After
sixty venirement had been sum
moned to court, the selection of a
jury was completed late last night
in the Gray murder case, and the
arguments were begun when the
hearing was resumed in the district
court this morning. The case is
proceeding speedily today and it is
expected that all the testimony will
have been introduced and the case
fumed over to the jury by tomor
row afternoon.
In the selection of the jury, both
the prosecution and the defense ex
hausted their preemptories, and it
looked for a time as if it would be
necessary to call a second special
venire.

AT Sim IONITE
A snappy Paramount picture will
be projected at the Coliseum this
evening and promises to be a laugh
producer all the way through. The
picture is entitled the “Wild Goose
Chase,” and stars Ina Claire, one
of Broadway’s best hits.
“The Wild Goose Chase” deals
with the love story of a college boy
and a charming girl. About the
time they first meet and fall in
stantly in love with one another,
their stern parents, order them to
marry each to an unknown mate.
The reason for this is that the
grandfathers of the two young peo
ple are two rich old gentlemen of
France, and these two men, accord
ing to European custom, offer to
provide large sums of money if the
young people marry whom they have
picked out for them.
To escape the enforced marriages,
the man and girl both leave home
and happen to join the same wand
ering theatrical troupe, which meets
with many trials and tribulations.
It is not until the very end of the
picture that the young people, fin
ally learning each other’s real names
find that they have been on a wild
goose chase, and are running away
from each other together. The
story turns out all to the merry,
as what they both desire and what
their grandfathers desire is one and
the same thing—their marriage.
Popular prices will prevail, 25c
for admission, with reserved seats
two-bits extra. The show will start
at eight o’clock.
FRED BEAULIEU IS
OFF FOR GOOD NEWS
Fred Beaulieu, the well known
musher, made his second start for
the Good News Bay stampede at
noon today. He has a string of
dogs and is traveling light in the
hope of making up for lost time.
This is the second start he has
made for the strike. His first one
was to be on February 6th, in com

arrest of Cole postponed his trip.
His second start was on the 9th
of February, when he got as far as
Ruby and was subpeoned by the
