DR.. CUNNINGHAM
HOME IS ROBBED
Thief Forces Basement Win
dow and Ransaeks Res
idenee

The home Of DR.. R. E. Cunningham
of $40 Themis street was entered by
burglars at about o'clock yesterday
morning.
Access to the premises was gained
by forcing basement window kfter
reaching the basement the intruders
made their way up the steps into the
kitchen, where they turned on the
electric lights and began a search OF
the interior.
The burglars were evidently Of the
impression that the. members OF the
household were away on their vacation
as they made no attempt to conceal
their presence after securing admis-
sion to the building.
Mrs. Cunningham, who was alone
could hear them walking around the
room, and their actions would indicate
that they did not entertain the slight
est fear Of being molested.
When she first heard the noise she
was too badly frightened to make al
outcry, but after a few seconds de
liberation she regained her composur'
and decided on a plan Of action.
Going to one Of the windows sh
shouted loudly for assistance. He
cries reached the ears Of her unwel
come Guests who made their depart
ure before the arrival Of the arouse
neighbors.
/ An investigation proved that Will
various articles Of value had been sc
cured from the drawers and shelves
and assembled on the kitchen tabl'
the thieves in their scramble to vacat
made their escape without taking any
thing with them.
They left the lights burning, pr
sumably to guide them when they Ell
tered the basement, in making the
exit through the open window.

FARMERS GRAPES STOLEN
Vineyard Of William Sanders Raided
During Family's Absence.

William Sanders, farmer, living
within a short distance Of limo, is
looking for the parties who robbed his
grape arbor few days ago. The
thieves carted away more than thou
sand pounds Of the luscious fruit.
Mr.. Sanders and his wife left their
farm house in charge Of Tiger"
their vicious watchdog, while they
spent the day at the home Of neigh
Dor.
When they returned they noticed
that some Of the grape vines looked
as if they had been torn from their
fastenings. Upon investigation, Mr..
Sanders found they had been shorn OF
every grape.
The yield this year was one OF the
largest they had ever produced, and
Mr.. Sanders had delayA garnerins
them until they could reach the stage
Of perfection.
The dog, which had never permitted
anyone to enter the yard while the
family were away, was sleeping con-
tentedly on the rear porch when Mr.
Sanders returned.
Mr. Sanders believes the thief oil
thieves were acquainted with condi
tions on his farm and were able II
make friends with the dog because O
having come in contact with him be
fore.
In addition to the grapes some o
his peaches were also taken. Mr.. San
ders produces some Of the finest vari
cites of fruit in this section Of tn
State, and grapes and peaches are hi
hobbies.

OUR NEUTRAL RloHrs.

The reason why inhabitants of the United States are supplying Great Bri- tain and France with arms. ammuni- tion, clothing and foodstuffs is not to be found In any disregard Of the neutrality laws. It is explained by the fact that Germany and Austria have practically abandoned the seas.
 As some Of our German friends in the United States have protested against Q traffic that is perfectly law ful. the State Department ct Wash ington has found it necessary once moro to explain the situation. There is nothing In the law of nations. in our treaties or in our laws that for bids the citizens Of the United States selling anything they may produce or possess to belligerants. Certain risks are involved in the business. but these are well understood.
 No American can recruit or outfit an expedition hostile to a friendly pow CT, but every. American may sell to Q nation at war anything from ham or barrel Of flour to a ship load of rifles. armored automobiles or twelve inch cannons. Nearly everything, from ioodstuffs to munitions Of war. is held to be contraband by most na- tions engaged in hostilides; but if they do not enforce their own rules no responsibility attaches to neutrals.
 jt happens in the present instance that the German fleet IS held in the Keil canal by the British and that the Austrian fleet is cornered by the French in the Adriatic While these conditions continue, trade between our ports and those of the Allies will not be safe and profitable, but altogether iu harmony with the principles of neu. trality,- (New York World)

SIGNIFICANCE OF
 RUBYS BIG NUGGET

The fact that the third largest mug set yet found in Alaska is from this camp win do more to establish Ruby on Q substantial basis as a mining section than any other fact sent broad cast can possibly do. They may say much about our peddling and being over enthusiastic regarding the out look for this section. but everyone must admit that peddling win never make Si.914 nuggets, and this, too' in an actual nest of smaller ones. It is stated upon good authority that the average daily pickup for fourteen days on the ground worked by Ditz, Selch & Walker was over S1000
 At the time Messrs. Ditz and Seleh left, last week they had over 15O mug gets that go form $50 to S10O upward. The next largest nugget to the big one is S4O4.
 When the biz nugget, with two smaller ones. was on exhibition ID Martin siclinger's window last week, Old.umers or lnls camp WHO nave "l ways been considered as full up with optimism became more so, and the pessimist was not to be found.
 If we knew these things to be true of any other camp in Alaska or on the Mackenzie river we would all stampede; but because it is right nere in Ruby it is taken as a matter lhat might happen anywhere-but hasn't. However. the fact remains that no one can see that nugget and remain indifferent to the possibilities Of this camp The big piclIups of tho last thirty days should be stated freQuUnt- ly and accurately that all may know that 1t is no idle boast when 1t IS said that the Ruby district has the best outlook of any interior camp in Alaska.
