LITTLE SON OF MRS. NOELLER
DIES SUDDENLY IN SPOKANE
Cecil William Noeller, aped 3.
son of Mrs. Georpe Noeller, former
resident of Nenana, died in Spokane
on April 11, accordinp to informa
tion received on yesterday’s mad
by Pete Schmidt.
The information was contained in
a clippinp from a Spokane paper
and was as follows: “After an ill
ness of but a few hours, Cecil
William NoeHer, ape 3, died of
epileptic convulsions early this
mominp at the home of his widow
ed mother, Mrs. George Noeller,
N5008 Magnolia street. The child
was suddenly taken with the attack
at two o’cloclc this morning and
died three hours later. Dr. J. Far
row was called and diopnosed the
case as epilepsy, from which the
child is said to have been suffering
since birth. Mrs. Noeller and her
family of three children arrived in
Spokane a week ago from Union
town.”
The Noellers were pioneer resi
dents of Nenana, having located
here shortly after the town was
founded. Mr. Noeller, it will be
recalled, lost his life by drowning
in the swift waters of the Nenana
river, at the railroad crossing, and
shortly afterward, his widow and
the children left for the States,
where they have since resided.
A man was fined $20 and costs
recently at Ketchikan for tapping
electric wires and stealing juice.

HOLLAND TOWNS LAUNCH
DRIVE TO LOWER PRICES
AMSTERDAM, May 10—A num
ber of Dutch municipalities, includ
ing Amsterdam, are going into the
importing business, themselves, in
an effort to force down the cost
of living and expose profiteering.
A year ago, some of the munici
palities bought American shoes and
put them on sale at a price much
! below that charged by the Dutch
merchants.
Some months later they imported
beef from the Argentine, and put
, it on the market at about half the
price charged for Dutch meat.
The latest move of the Amster
dam city council is to import into
Holland, one of the greatest dairy
ing countries in the world, butter
from Denmark, which is to be sold
at a price of 5.0 Dutch cents a
kilogram below the quotations for
, Dutch butter of the same grade.
These municipal bodies, in which
i there are many socialists, believe
that Dutch middlemen demand ex
orbitant prifits and that this habit
can only be broken when the people
find that they can buy imported
commodities much cheaper than do
mestic, even after freight and duty
charges have been paid,
i Dutch manufacturers have de
manded of parliament a protective
tariff, in addition to the ordinary
five per cent duty charged on most
commodities, but the government
has declined to adopt a general
policy along this line.

■ NORWEGIAN ENGINEER CAN
SEND PHOTOS Bv TELEGRAPH
I -
' CHRISTIANIA. Norway, May 10
—Hcrwc.od Peterson, a chief engi
neer ir. the government telegraph
service, has invented a vvre ani
cable system by which it is possible
to transfer a picture or a message
in original handwriting over a
practically unlimited distance. The
device was recently tested publicly
here between two 600-mile points
and was reported successful.
Contrary to the present telegraph
system, Mr. Peterson uses an alter
nating electric current, allowing a
; strictly synchronous work of the
sending and the receiving apparatus,
a higher speed, and an enormous
saving of operating costs. The sys
tem, it is claimed, also makes it
possible to transmit double the num
ber of words compared with any
other telegraphic system now used
and it operates automatically from
the moment the telegram picture
or drawing is received by the op
erator until it is received at the
place of delivery. No new wires or
cables are necessary.
The manuscript to be transferred
is placed on a metallic cylinder—
somewhat resembling an original
wax phonograph cylinder—covered
with a photographic film and ex
posed to a strong arc light. The
manuscript is copied on the cylinder
film, developed and chromagraphi
, cally etched into the metal. The
cylinder is then placed on the send
' ing apparatus to which is trans
i
mitted an electric current going to
the receiving apparatus. When the
cylinder rotates, a needle moves on
it, touching every point on the
cylinder. Whenever it touches the
copied letters of the manuscript it
; causes a short circuit which is
transmitted to the receiving appa
ratus with its photographic paper
! on whicn the copy is reproduced.
VIENNA THEATER GOERS EAT
SUPPER DURING THE SHOW
VIENNA, May 10—Theater man
agers complain that the upholstery
of their houses is being ruined by
the new habit of play-goers bring
ing their suppers and eating them
during the entre acts.
Because of the lighting and trans
port restrictions performances here
begin at from six to seven o'clock.
; The result is that persons cannot
go home from business and after
the theater the restaurants have
closed.
It is said that dozens of sardine
boxes and other meat cases, crumbs
of bread and cheese and meat
i scraps are swept up after each per
formance, while all the filth and
dirt is trodden into carpets and
rubbed in the seats.

RAILROAD OFFICIAL CLAIMS
LABOR COSTS ARE HURTFUL
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 10—
Julius Kruttschmidtt, chairman of
the board of directors of the South
ern Pacific railway, appeared today
before the concessional committee
which is investigating the railroad
situation, being the first witness
called by the committee.
He declared that the trouble with
the railroads is excessive operating
expenses, due largely to the cost of
labor. He advocated the prohibition
of the use of the public highways
by common carriers, keeping the
Government out of the business of
operating ships and stopping the
use of public money to provide inter
coastal and ocean transportation in
competition with the railroads.
