Need Of Trained Workers.
The scheme for University of HUI.
mainly grew naturally out of the de.
velopment of the 20 other depart.
ments. With field as wide as the
world Itself the work of the Salvation
Army is only limited by the number
of workers that can be secured and
its effectiveness by the understanding
and earnestness of these workers. AS
uplift work has grown from local eff.
forts to help few into a great I'm.
elusive movement which must miss
none. the problems OF organization
have grown greater. Charity has be.
come a science and It's application an
art requiring the highest development
OF personal qualities OF insight and
altruism. There is thus pressing need
for workers Of quite exceptional anal.
ification. These qualifications must
first of all be inherent and must then
be developed by experience and spe.
cial training.
This is the new work planned nv
! Gen. Booth. Those women. for In.
stance, who are to go among the
slums of the big cities must not only
have the desire to help but must know
how real helpfulness can best be Sc,
cured They must understand by a
study of practical sociology some
thing of the social forces that create
this poverty and crime and wretched
ness. They must understand the dan
ger OF the unwise charity that merely
increases dependence and UNDERSTAND
/ the value of better living conditions
! in raising the moral courage of those
to whom fate has been unkind The,
must be able not only to correct bome
conditions themselves but to impart
their knowledge and to inspire with
desire for betterment.

GEN. BOOTH ON EIGHTIETH
BIRTHDAY STARTS NEW PLAN
Veteran Founder Of Salvation Army Launches
Scheme for university of Humanity" in the
United States---All the World Celebrates
Anniversary of His Birth.

New York.-Gen. William Booth.
founder and commander.in-ch of the
Salvation Army, celebrated his eight
ieth birthday on Saturday. April 10.
and the event was made the occasion
OF rejoicing all over the civilized
world. The Army itself held big meet
ings in every city and town where 1t
is established, and these were partici
pated in by hundreds Of thousands of
other citizens who were glad TO do
honor to the distinguished philan-
thropist.
Gen. Booth himself presided over
several monster mass meetings in
London His advanced age and the
fact that he was operated on recently
for cataract did not deter him from
taking part in the celebrations held by
his devoted soldiers.
University Of Humanity Launched.
In America the day was marked
especially by the launching of another
OF Gen. Booths original schemes for
social reform in the United States.
At every post of the army was an.
nounced the beginning of work to
found University Of Humanity, a
great institution for the training of
workers In social service. The uni.
versity will be divided between New
York and Chicago. and It is expected
to begin with fund of $1,000 900. The
gathering of this fund is the work
that the army now enters upon in
commemoration of its famous leaders

AS a much-needed stone in the great
organizational structure that William
Booth has been building during the
past AZ years, this idea of a school
for the systematic training of his
workers has been In his mind for sew.
eral years. On his last visit to the
United States the general made his
first tentative announcement of the
plan Since then he has worked out
many of the details and he has just
consented to the beginning of pre-
liminary work in this country where
the need for trained workers has been
especially great
Growth OF Great System.
1t is perhaps not generally realized
that the whole intricate modern ma
chinery of civilization for the uplift-
ing OF the submerged tenth, the vast
system OF charities now so essential
part of modern life, is to very
large extent an outgrowth of the
Booth idea. He was the first to see
that the unfortunate could best be
reached by those who had suffered as
they had, and that they must be
reached by practical worldly help be-
fore they could be prepared to begin
the cleaner life. II was the Salvation
Army which first made practical
working success Of this now familiar
principle OF socalled missionary
work"
This whole plan of campaign for
raising the fallen began on very
simple scale in the poverty.stricken
and crime-infested East end of Lon
don and under the impetus of William
Booths singular force of mind and
personality and the momentum that II
has gathered with almost miraculous
rapidity II has developed into truly
astonishing organization.

JOHN ARMSTRONG cHALoNER

John Armstrong Chaloner, or Chaner. as he
was until he took legal steps to change his name
year ago, maintains his occupation for striking
and sensational originality. His very latest ad-
vent into the lmelight was by way OF the fatal
shooting of a brutal husband who had beaten
his wife and was trying to kill her in the parlor
of Chaloners Virginia home. The coroner's Jury
promptly exonerated Chaloner who will not be
prosecuted.
1t Is not generally known--or 1t has been
generally forgotten-that Chaloner was the hero
of the erotic and quite remarkable novel which

and brilliant Amelie Rives, now the Princess

OF his creed the general has written
very beautifully. He says;
THE simplicity OF our creed has
been, as believe II will remain, one
of the principal helps to our unity.
We stand for the old truths. The
faith which can be interpreted in
terms of duty, of unselfishness, OF
purity, of love to God and man, is the
only faith we really care about. What
ever may be the case with the select
minority, the consciousness of sin
the force of evil habit and the con
seriousness of sin and the influence Of
passion. are all vivid realities with
the great masses of the population
To them We bring the promise of de
liverance by Jesus Christ"

Big Lodge of Eagles a
 Fairbanks

At the meeting of the Eagles h, night for the purpose of eiec,ine officers for the ensuing year, there were present the largest number of persons that ever participated in an, meeting of any secret UT fratarnai or. 2anization ever held in Alaska.
 There were over 300 member pres IL. many of whom came from the dif' erent mining camps in the vacinity oi Fairbanks, and although there was a spirited contest over some of the ofj- cers, the best feeling prevailed. and there were no heartburnings after the smoke of the battle cleared away. This speaks volumes for the organi- zation, and will no doubt be appreci' ated by the members, as we'll as those who have noticed the steady and large growth of the youngest fratern- al society in the country. The Fair banks aerie has now within five mem- oers of being one of the 2o largest aeries in the world.-Fairbanks Times.

When the Cation system Of smelting ore is perfected which is thought will be in a short time, the mining district around ketchikan will employ more men than any other district in Alaska. Low grade properties which are To- cated on almost every island as yell as the mainland, will be working and Ketchikan will be the busiest city ih the district Thousands of miners will be employed and we will be the distributing center for the entire sout- eastern part of Alaska. Lots of work means lots of people, lots of people make lots of bushes and business is what we are here for. The only thing that gives us any concern regarding the operation of the Cation crude oil system of smelting is.that if, John D.. ever has to pay that fine of s29, 600, GOO the price of crude oil will jump to a
 figure large enough for John tO get his money pack at the earliest possi ble moment. Then John will have for gotten by that time and the public will be compelled to still pay for the fines liable to be imposed some time in the future.

The effect of the increasing of freight rates by the trans-Paciic steamship companies, other than the C. P. R., which alone maintained its former rates, has been to greatly augment he trade via Suez while the trasns- Pacific trade has been decreased. The steamer Jeseric arrived at Baltimore recently with l3.o tons of Oriental freight consisting of S0,0 bales of hemp, 4,565 ingots of copper. 4.o0 packages of tea, 600 drums of cocanut oil $50 bales of equal. 50 packages of curios. 3i packages of machinery and 5S4 packages of undrie.
 A Baltimore exchange says concern ing this movement of freight by the way of Susz: with more steamers due here in quick succession from the Far East in the next fortnight. the trade with that quarter of the globe seems to be having a decided boom. Nearly all cargoes from China, Japan, the Philippines, and India are ex- sremely valuable, and in the last eight days there have arrived here the Jaseric, Indramayo. kasepga, Baren- fels and Neidenfel representing val ues well up in the millions.
 4 large part of this class of freight has always gone through Pacif Coast ports. but since the recent ruling of the Interstate Commerce Commission the merchats of the Atlautci coast are having their goods routed in the other direction. The loss to Pacific coast ports will be more noticeable as time goes on.-Railaay and Marine News.

Stone inpliments used by some pre- historic people of this region have been uneatrhed st the present Moose hide village, below Dawson. They are among the few stones of the kind found in this region, ard may be of much value in tracing the indications a 10 the exact character Of the people uho once lived here.
 The find was made lats week by Peter Thompson, Moosehide Indian. while digging six feet beneath the sur face to make cellar. Twent! stone pieces, most of them shaped into ar TOW or spear heads, were uncovered on spot few feet square. With them he found what was undoubtedly a stone hammer. It is in circnlar form. about three inches in diameter, and an inch ard 8 hslf thick, with a groove cut about the outer edge. This groove. it seems, must have been designed to bind a thong or willow branch about 10 form handle for the hammer. This idea suggested itself to the Indians of the village, and they have bound such handle to the stone, and have made a neat hammer, show ing what possibly was done by the an- oestors Of generations ago, or xho- ever the aborigines were who owned ths peculiar intruments.
 The spear heads are large. They range from two to three inches in length, and are clipped out of ainty black stone. This art of chipping arroshesds or spear heads with the precision and accuracy shown in spec linens Of the work, vas known from California 10 the Arctic, but the white man seems never to have learned ex- aetly how is was done. Indians Of the coast say tha. the arrowheads were made oy the great spirit, calld in :he Chinook iargon, "Shook-a-lee Tyee, :" literally the highest chieftain.
 Chief Isaac has the hammer and the spear heads fuopd at Moosehide. and will show them to Governor Henderson.
 Chief Isaac is puzzled as to the or ixin of the instruments. He does not know or have any firm belief as to exactly what use the instruments were put by the original owners. He thinks however, that the points must have been used for spear or arrow heads :: some of the sharper and more irregu- lar shaped thin edged pieces for knives with which to cut the skin of game and the circular stone piece for . hammer. sr.-Fairbanks Times.

That Fish Question
 Bobs Up Once More

The Juneau Record has the 6shing qu-stion of Alaska sized up in pretty good shape and says.
 Just how long congress is going to allow the piracy practcied by the sal mond fisheries to exist in Alaska is impossible to tell. but if the Alaska Packers Association and other large corporations are to be permitted to have the sway they have at this time it will not make any difference if legislation is enacted at all. as there will be DO salmon worth protecting in few years The report of the Valdez grand jury the other day showed that the law was drafted by agents of the fisheries companies, the fed eral tax assessed sginst the companies doing business in that district was s32, 2T2, 3i, on basis of four cents a case for salmon. The law provides
 that the statement of the comp any representatives as to the numbear of fry liberated shall be accepeo by the courts witout investigation. During the above mentioned year the Alaska Packers Association claimed to have liberated 8, ss0, OpD try, thereby bsing entitled to a rebate of s32, 272 leaving thirty two cents in cash to be paid in to the Alaska fund for taking SOs. 900 cases of salmon from Alaska waters.
 All of the money derived from the tax on salmon is turned over for the maintenance of public schools and building roads in Alaska. The prob- lem of what roads to build and what schools to maintain with the amount contributed by the Alaska Packers Association this year will certainly be unsolyabie. .,

Some trhee or four months ago there was meeting of citizens called to- gether at the Rsdmeps Hall, for the purpose of consulting with the Mayor and Council regarding putting through walk from point near the Cutlery Store 70 the boundry line of the New England Fish Co.'S. property. IL occurs to us that al that meeting il gas unanimously voted to put. the wslk through. The walk vas started aud a good walk eight feet wide was laid up to the cannery grounds. A little difficulty arose with the cannery people which was soon smoothed over. bot the work vas not resumed. The lack nf funds may be the cause but in case of tb kind we think it a .'IenEy wise and dollar foolish" policy not 10 raise the funds by local sub scription, by local merchants and other interested parties rather than not have the walk completed by the time operations begin at tbe plant about the first of February. If it were proposition where an expense vas incurred with DO possibility of returns, we would not think of adyo- eating it's completion at this time, but facts are facts and these selfsame facts are proof positive that it is a sane business idea.
