HOW THE GERMANS
TREAT AGITATORS
The grim penalty meted out to Gor
man agitators in the trenches is re
i ferred to by Private J. Taylor, K. O.
R. L., in a letter to his sister in Man
chester. He writes:
"A few weeks ago, about 300 yards
; away, we used to see small groups
of the enemy at various times evi
dently engaged in heated discussions.
Of course, we fired on them, and those
that did not go down from our bullets
took to their heels. But another par
j ty would come, and still we kept mak
ing them pay the penalty. The re
markable thing about it was that
: they always seemed to tv? unarmed.
“ One night we ambushed a German
patrol, consisting of seven men. not
far from the same spot, and when we
: got them safely to our lines one of
j them told us how badly treated any
of them were who dared to say a
! word of the German method of con
; ducting it.
The chap who told us the story
j said he was the son of a teacher
j of languages who at one time had
many pupils in England. He also
told us that great discontent pre
vails not only in the German army
but throughout the whole of Germany
at the war not being over long before
now and the Allies completely crush
ed.
At the outset the Germans were
! so confident that they simply
thought they were going to have a
walk over. "They dreaded the Eng
glish navy,” he said, “but they did
i j not reckon much of her army.” Now
that the army has been increased they
are beginning to wake up to what is
in store for them, and they honestly
rue the dav thev declared war.
He also told us that in one of the
1 German trenches a number of the
men were fond of arguing about the
merits and demerits of Socialism and
its bearing upon the war. One of the
men said that if he could only com
municate with every man in the
German army he would suggest that
they should lay down their arms and
cease fighting.
Several of the listeners applauded
the speaker, anffafter the meeting had
broken up half-a-dozen of the leaders
were met by a number of their offi
cers, and without more ado shot like
dogs. These meetings were compos
ed of the men we used to see hang
ing around the comers of the trench
es arguing the point with one anoth
er.
You never saw such ragamuffins
in vour life as the patrol we captured.
I They were practically in rags, and
were footsore and weary. They look
ed as if they hadn’t had a wash for
weeks and for want of a shave ap
peared as if an amateur gardener had
gone over their faces with a pair of
pruning shears.—(Scotsman.)

MINING NEWS FROM FAIRBANKS.
(Fairbanks Citizen.)
A new placer strike has been made
on Nelson creek, a tributary to Mayo
lake, In the upper Stewart river dis
trict A big stampede has been on
the place for the last several weeks.
The creek is said to be from fifteen
to twenty miles in length. Over fifty
claims have been staked. Many more
are now on their way to stake claims
on the river. The be^l pan has gone
sixteen cents. According to all re
ports, the creek is well wooded, and
; if there is any extent of pay it af
fords excellent opportunities for de
| veloping the mining properties.
Mining men who have visited the
works of Ringhahl & Co., on’No. 11 i
below, creek claim, on Cleary creek, ]
are authority for the statement that
the richest pay ever known to exist
! on old Cleary, even in her palmiest i
j days, is now being mined here,
j In fact, it is stated that it is no ;
| trouble at all. to get pans running
! from $5 to 125 anywhere in the drift,
j It is therefore expected that the op
’ I erators will take out something like
$100,000 during the mining season.

INSECTS AS HUMAN FOOD.
(Detroit Free Press.)
Dr. L. O. Howard, chief of the bur
| eau of entomology of the department
I of agriculture, Washington, is quoted
j as saying there is no reason why peo
i pie may not eat bugs. He says insect
; soups can be made. which are very
nourishing and appetizing.
! Of course, if the doctor is quite cor
rect, a new source of food supply is
at once open to the general public,
but it will undoubtedly be necessary
to do a lot of educating before the
American public will take largely and
kindly to puree of mosquito, beetle
or tlv. Baked grasshopper pudding
or pie, pinchbug hash and such dishes
will have to make their way to public
j favor by slow degrees.

SEWARD GOES WET.
(Seward Post.)
Results of the recent canvass here,
on the question of granting licenses
to the local saloons for the coming
year have been announced at Valdez.
The vote stood over two to one in fa
vor of granting the licenses.
The enumerators registered the
names of 612 residents of whom 436
declared themselves in favor of li
censes, 145 in favor of no license, and
31 had no opinion. As the latter are
counted as not favoring license the
result is placed at 436 for license to
176 against.

KUKUI IS TIED UP.
(Seward Post.)
Members of the crew on the light
house tender S. S. Kukui are on strike
for an increase in pay amounting to
$5 per month and the vessel is tied up
at the dock here. So far as known
this is the first strike to occur in the
history of the lighthouse service, at
least on this coast.
When the vessel arrived here the
men complained that they had not re
ceived pay due them for some weeks
back and thew wanted it before leav
ing. Then the question of an increas
ed wage came up.
Capt. Gregory left the matter in
the hands of Inspector Debrell who is
aboard. The inspector declined to
discuss the matter other than to say
he was awaiting a ruling from light
house headquarters before taking any
action.

MAKE BREAD FROM SAWDUST.
(From Answers, London.)
“Waste not, want not,” has for long
been the motto in Berlin, thanks to
the British navy. Now' some of the
strafers are living on shavings. Many
a German sits down to a meal of bread
made from saw'dust.
Sawdust may not appeal to the pal
ate as a digestible or appetizing sub
stitute for flour in the making of
bread, but, all the same, (here is a
large bakery in Berlin turning out
twenty thousand loaves of saw'dust
bread daily.
The sawdust is first subjected to a
process of fermentation, and various
chemical manipulations. Finally, it is
mixed with one-third part of rye
flour, formed into loaves and oaked
in ovens like any other bread.
-♦
NOTHING TO GET EXCITED OVER.
RUBY, June 9.—The latest reports
from Tolstoi are to the effect that
many people are there, but the camp
is still in the prospective stage. Some
pay has been found on Boob and
Mastodon creeks but nothing very
flattering or to become excited over.

FIGHTING PARSON
AMONG CANADIANS
(Prince Rupert News.)
As details of the terrific fighting
on the Canadian part of the western
front come through, the fierceness of
the conflict is more apparent. In the
struggle in Sanctuary Wood, Captain
Rev. R. Chaplain with the First
Mounted Rifles, seized a rifle when the
Germans rushed the front trenches
and fired away at the advancing ene
my. Later he used the bayonet to
good purpose and finally discarded
the weapon and went at the Germans
with his fists and fell fighting like a
hero. The story is told by an eye
witness.
