SHELDON's FLATS
 ARE FAR-REACH|NG

To demonstrate that the Ford car is a commercial factor in the trans portation of freight and passengers in the interior of Alaska, three Ford cars are operated by the Sheldon, Gibson & Ashton stage line on the passenger run from Chitina to Fair banks, 320 miles away. The best time made on this trip was two and one-half days, and the average is from three and one-half to six days, depending on the weather. When it rains in Alaska the bottom falls out of what they call roads, and the au- tomobile becomes a submarine.
 The stage fare by a Ford Is s10O per passenger, and forty pounds of baggage is allowed The fare on the horse stage is $13O for the same trip, but the expense enroute by horse stage will average $75 per trip for accommodations at the roadhousess, as compared to an average of $25

AMERICAN CODES GERMAN CIVIL
 LAWS

THE HAGUE, April 2S-Dr. H. c. Huberich, former acting dean of the law school of Leland Stanford, Jr. University and nv practiclng in the various prize courts of Europe, has coded the German civil laws enacted for the occupied provinces of Belgium. The new code Is published in Dutch, German, French and English. The work of codification was rendered ex- tremely hard by the difficulty of ob. taining the necessary data, but through his Berlin connections Dr. Huberlch managed to secure the official texts of the new laws. The ordinary or dinances of Belgium regulating the behavior of the people have not been materially changed, but the conner cial laws have been amended radi- cally so that the foreign and domes- tis commerce of the country can be supervised strictly by the German au- thorities.

HORSE FLESH IN
 GREAT DEMAND

COPENHAGEN, April 28-A large ly increased demand for horse meat to be sent to Germany is noted in the Danish markets, and prices are high CT than ever known before.
 This is a surprise to the horse butchers, as it was supposed that the demand for horse flesh would be more than supplied by carcasses of animals killed in battle. But, ac- cording to the Danish butchers, the meat of horses killed in battle has been generally found unfit for con sumption, and the carcasses are now burned or sold to soap manufacturers

PARIS, April 2S-President Poin- care has just signed a decree regard ing pensions for wounded soldiers, which is a departure from previous pension regulations in France, in that the amount allowed to maimed sol diers is proportionate to the extent of the disability.
