CELL IS SETTING
OF MASTERPIECE
FLORENCE, Oct. 26. (/P)-^Mad with
jealousy, Alfred Massini, well known
Florentine novelist, two years ago
fired three shots at his wife, killing
her instantly, after a violent quarrel.
He then gave himself up to the po
lice, remarking, “All husbands do
this sooner or later.”
Signora Massini was a beautiful
and attractive woman. The subse
quent trial proved clearly that she
had been unfaithful to her hus
band; it also brought out that he
had made her life unbearable ow
ing to his violent temper. Massini
was ordered to be detained in a
lunatic asylum as “dangerous to
himself and others.”
In the seclusion of the asylum
Massini has now written and pub
lished a novel entitled “Thou Shalt
Not Kill.” In it he tells his own
story very slightly disguised, and
analyzes the causes that led him to
take the life of the woman he pas
sionately loved. With grim real
ism he paints the utterly hopeless
position of a man who has com
mitted such a crime. Whatever the
verdict of society, the individual him
self can never rise out of the abyss
where his own act has plunged him.
r
Between him and everything else
stands the figure of the dead woman,
purified by death.
Powerfully written, the book has
created an immense impression thru
out Italy and is spoken of as only
second to Oscar Wilde’s “De Pro
fundis.”
Jap Sent To Jail for
Carrying Fire Arms
E. P. Walker, of the Bureau of
Biological Survey and executive of
ficer of the Alaska Game Commis
sion received a teegram recenty, ac
cording to the Juneau Empire, from
Petersburg saying that George Oni
shi, Japanese, of Pybus Bay, has
been tried and convicted in the court
of U. S. Commissioner Clausen at
that place, of possessing fire arms in
violation of the alien provision of the
Alaska Game Law. He was sentenc
ed to 60 days in jail and to pay a
fine of $50. The arrest was made at
Pybus Bay from where it was report
ed that unlawful hunting for game
| had been practiced, Mr. Walker said.
Frank McCafferty, master mechan
ics of the Alaska Road Commission,
last Saturday, departing on the Alas
arrived from the Inlet headquarters
ka for Valdez, where he will inspect
the commission’s equipment.

PROOF
OF A BETTER OIL
The function of a lubricant is to
reduce friction and thus increase
the effective power of the engine.
The best proof that Zerolene does
this to a superlative degree is found
in the fadt that the Zerolene'Iubri'
cated automobile or motor-boat has
more driving power; it averages 5 °/o
more gasoline mileage than when
other oils are used.
One good test of the purity and
stability of a motor oil is the amount
of carbon it forms. Zerolene forms
less carbon than any other motor oil
\nown to us. That is why the Zero'
lenedubricated automobile or mo*
tonboat may be driven from 25%
to 50% farther without having the
valves ground or the cylinders re*
bored.
Truly, you can buy no better oil
than Zerolene. Ask for it by name
—Zerolene.

RODIGKEIT OF
NENANA QUITS
TAVERN CAFE
WELL KNOWN CATERER OF INTE
RIOR, AND WIFE, GO OUT
FOR THE WINTER
William (Dutch) Rodigkeit, proprie
tor of the Tavern Cafe for many
years at Nenana, accompanied by Mrs.
Rodigkeit, were Southbound passen
gers out of Seward Saturday on the
steamer Alaska, never more to return
to Alaska. But at that, the well known
Interior chef stated, he might be back
and go into the mining game in the
Kuskokwim region. However, for the
next six months anyway# both he and
his wife expect to have a good vaca
tion Outside, playing around thruout
the south, until they succumb to the
“call of the North.”
Mr. Rodigkeit says he was practic
ally forced to abandon a business es
tablishment that cost him in the
neighborhood of $40,000, due to the
gradual deterioration of town business
where rail and river meet. He ha'*
turned his splendid restaurant over to
his younger brother, who was recently
married. When he did this, he said
he wished him luck.
Though he was more or less dis
heartened over present business con
ditions at Nenana, Mr. Rodigkeit said
he was firmly convinced that in time
Nenana will blossom forth into a reg
ular town, but he is perfectly willing
to let the younger generation reap the
harvests
One of the main reasons for leaving
Nenana at this time was because his
wife was in poor health and they thcd
a change would be good for both of
them. They plan heading toward Flo
rida, then up to New Yorrk, where
the winter may be spent.
