HUNTING PICTURE WILL
BE SHOWN AT LYRIC.
When Sidney Snow accompanied
his father, H. A. Snow, into the
wilds of darkest Africa, the thought
that whatever pictures he might take
would prove the basis rW' the greatest
and most sensational motion picture
ever made, was furthest from his
mind. He took along the camera
more as a matter of personal en
tertainment than anything else Two
regular camera men accompanied the
Suows, but they side stepped the task
soon after landing and the task of
making the pictures developed on
young Sidney. The wonderful re
sults he attained are embraced in
the Universal-Special “Hunting Big
Game in Africa," which will be shown
tonight and Thursday at the Lyric
Theatre. The picture was the talk
of Juneau when shown there last
week. ,
Passengers Can Drink
On Shipping Board Boats
WASHINGTON, July H. — After
considering reports of consumption
of private liquor stocks by passengers
on government owned ships, the
Shipping Board has decided its
authority as exercised through Cap
tanis does not extend to interference
with the actions of passengers in
this respect.
The inquiry showed many authori
ties on maritime law declaring the
long established usage gives Cap
tains practically limitless authority
in suppression of what he considers
illegal actB by any person on such
ship?.

SWE MEATS
ARE SELLING
CHEAP TODAY!
Comparative Prices Are Giv-j
en Based on May, 1913,
and May, 1923.
CHICAGO, July 11. — The recent
announcement from one of the sta
tistical bureaus of the United States
government that the, cost of living
is approximately 67 per cent, higher
today than it was ten years ago has
brought a statement from F. W. Wad
dell. vice president of Armour &
Company, to the effect that whole
sale selling prices for meat are in
some cases lower than they were
in 1913, and in others at almost ex
actly the same level.
Mr. Waddell submits the following
comparative prices based on an av
1 erage of the trading in May, 1911$,
and May, 1923:
Pork Loins .16 3-4 .14 1-2
Boston Butts .12 1-2 .12 1-2
Spare Ribs .08 .10
Beef Carcasses .13 .12
Loose Lard .... 10.17 10.60
Hant .21 .23
“It must be understood there are
certain grades of products that sell
for higher prices than those quoted,
and other grades that sell at lower
prices,” -says Mr. Waddell, “but the
general standard of prices is just
about on the level of 1913.
“In 1913 and in 1923 the average
cost of hogs was about the same,
but since 1913 the cost of manufac
! taring live animals Into meat has
Increased materially, as has the cost
of distributing the finished product.
The prices quoted above are to re
tailers. . Retail t>rh es vary accord
ing to the grades handled, and the
service which a retailer gives to the
householder.''
Says Europe Should
Refrain from
Giving America Advice
TAR1H. July 11 "America known
its own business best, can judge for
itself whether or not it will join the
League of Nations, and this without
any advice from fjtiropean countries,”
Gabriel Ilanotaux. former French
Minister of Foreign Affairs, said re
cently to The Associated I’ross.
“There is no doubt in my mind
that the United States will eventu
ally co-operate more closely in Euro
pean affairs, but whether this takes
shape in the form of joining the
League is a matter for Americans
to decide,” Mr. Hanotaux continued.
"America is well able to look after
its own affairs, ami it is my im
pression that no blame can be di
rected against Washington from Eu
rope because of failure of the Ameri
can senate to ratify the pact of the
League of Nations
"For the present it behooves us to
try and settle our own muddied sit
uation before attempting to give ad
vice to America,” Mr. Hanotaux con
cluded.
