There is nothing in a name, particu-
larly in the name of church denomina-
tions. The test of all religion is the
fruits Of each individusl member.
That is, the practical application of
Christianity rs it touches us ard
bri ags Us into touch with the world
measures the quality Of OUR religion.
We may SO through certain pre-
scrihed forms, emitting us to men,
bership in some church, ard still have
less Christianity than the most ignor-
ant heather. 1t doesn't make much
difference what brand of religion
one has, either, but the quality of our
Christianity makes lot of difference.
We have known devout Christian, men
and women whose lives We're daily
sermon, whose conduct was acceptable
in the eyes of the world, measured by
the standards of the New Testament
and Christ. These were Christians,
and the name Of their denomination
made no difference. We could name
hundreds of church members, professed
Christians, whose daily conduct is a
reproach when measured by Christian
standards. What difference what
church these hypocrits belong TO?
Here is food for thought for those who
are wasting time quarreling over i'm
material, non. essentials, insisting
that their church has monopoly on
Christianity. Christianity is great
vital force, set of principles, that
is easily recognized wherever and
whenever man or woman, in any de-
nomination, has it as Christ steachings
plainly point the way. Here is ma
terial for a series of sermons. Let
!, Christians strive rather to attain that
moral perfection that Christianity
demands. Let us be broad enough to
recognize true Christianity, whether
it be Baptist. Methodist, Presbyter.
ian, Adventist, Catholic, or another
sect. All have real Christians. and
all have their hypocrites that Chris.
tianity condemns. 1t isn't the kind

The new minister was invited out
to supper. He was bachelor, and
when he helped himself to the biscuits
for the third time he looked across
the table at the hostess little girl,
who was staring at him with round,
wondering eyes. II don't often have
such a good supper as this, my dear, .
he said in his most propitiatory tone.
1--WE don't either" said the little
girl, smiling. 'I'm awful glad you
came. "-Lippincott's Maagzine.

Filler Journal: Varied and ingen-
ious have been the expedients adopted
to irrigate arid throats since this
state went dry last July, but the most
startling one was revealed today when
promoters of fake funeral came to
grief. A hearse, hack and casket
were used in the plot. Waiting at a
railroad station were the two
vehicles, the hack containing mourn
full faced men. From the passenger
train stepped yelled woman CARRIED
in deep black At the same time a
child's casket was removed from the
baggage car. AS the woman walked
toward the waiting hack to join the
three men, the crowd gazed at her in
compassion and there was a murmur
of sympathy as station employees star
ted for the hearse. Just as the white
receptacle containing the remain"
was being lifted to be deposited in
the hearse the bottom dropped out.
To the establishment of the onlookers,
quarts, pints, and half pint bottles
fell with smash to the sidewalk.
The black CARRIED woman gave vent to
her feelings by uttering word DIES
criptive of region supposed to be
even drier than West Virginia. The
entire funeral party was actually to
bury 1.-THE child" in a grave that had
already been dug and then go to the
cemetery at night and disinter 1.-THE
body"

Ruthlessly torn from the arms of
his bride, whom he had just married,
Harry NAPLES of Espy, Penn, was
handcufred, shackles riven to his feet,
and thrown into a cattle crate, drawn
by two army mules. harnessed tandem
and exhibited to the residents of two
communities. His bridal chariot
bore the Inscriptions: Safety first"
and Captured for life. = In front
and to the rear of the novel equipage
was cavalcade of escorting vehicles

was that the keys to the shackles and
handouts we're accidentally lost and
young NAPLES had to spend his
nuptial night fastened in his cage.

FORMER JUDGE FULLER
 IS IN LOS ANGELES

In a letter received recently by Clerk Mcbride of the district court, Judge Fuller writes that he is in Los Angeles and ex- poets to remain there while. His future plans he did not mention, rather leaving the impression that they were uniformed, says the Fairbanks Times.
 He spent week in Seattle and four days in San Francisco, visiting the exposition grounds and renewing acquaintances. Both places, he says, are very quiet now, and Los Angeles itself is going through dull times While he qualities his opinion by stating that he has not been Outside very long, nevertheless he believes that business is very quiet and will remain so until the war is concluded.
 Regarding his resignation, he does not say much. The resignation was mailed from Fairbanks, according to his letter, on September l5, and was in the attorney gen. erals hands from the time it reached Wash ington until October 29, when, at the dl- rection of President Wilson it was ac- cepted Judge Fuller had no intimation of asno his successor would be- He is evidently glad to be out of office, and is enjoying his vacation in the South.

SIGNIFICANT ENTERPRISE
 IN NEW MINING CAMP

James Sherard has applied at the United States land office at Fairbanks for per init in the names of himself and J. c. Kin ney to cut 100000 feet of saw timber in the new Tolovana mining district. Kinney has a sawmill over in the koyukuk which probably will be moved over as soon as travel becomes possible, or mill may be taken out from Fairbanks
 This is one of the encouraging signs of the new camp, says the News Miner. No one as yet is willing to assert that pay streak has been found, but according to re- ports one has not been discovered, but the prospects are fine. Sherard reports that bedbedrock was struck at close to thirty feet in two thaws, and that gold was found on it. There seems to be several feet Of ground carrying geld He did not see the bottom of this hole, but says he under stands that it showed Scent pans. Ii lies m the left limit on the north side of Liven good creek, and Sherard and other expert enced miners believe that the pay will finally be uncovered on the south side where it has been found in all the Fair banks districts.

COMEDY STUNTS DONE BY
 AFRICANS IN THE WAR

Probably the bravest, the most desperate and bloodthirsty, yet at the same time the most comical fighters among the mil lions of men now flying at each others throats in Europe are the half dozen regi- ments of Turcos which Trance has brought over from Africa to aid her cause, says the Toledo Blade. They are native Arab fight CTS from Morocco, and are officially known to the French as Chasseurs dAtrqGe. The Germans call them Senegalese triggers.
 These native Africans, until conquered by France within the last few years, have been bandits, as had been their ancestors for cen turies They have done nothing but fight for living for hundreds of years, and they are not satisfied unless they are mixed up with little blood letting.
 They turned two regiments loose on 8 German battery, supported by regiment of infantry, in a battle recently, and the Senegalese although losing threefourths of their number, captured everything in sight after killing every German within range. When French endorsements were sent for ward to see what had become of the Ali ricans they found the survivors sitting around the battery sucking at long porce lain pipes they had taken from the dead Germans.
 These blacks take no account of their own wounds Not single one quits until he is unable to walk. Though their arms and bodies are hacked by saber cuts and thrusts and pierced by bullet holes, they complain of nothing but their obligations to fight with shoes on. Before going into the battle of Charleroi recently they slyly rid them selves of these impedments and several hours later they came back shod in Ger man footwear to avoid punishment for los ing equipment.
 At another place a force of these Turcos were sent on charge and nothing more was seen of them for several hours. They returned by twos and threes after having chased the Germans four miles. One of the blacks captured a German colonel, strapped his knapsack on the back of he Teuton and compelled him to carry it two miles back to camp. When the German persisted in swearing at his captor for such
 eatment the black spitted him through an ear with his bayonet and led him :he rest of the way.

COMMISSIONERSHIPS TO BE
 FILLED BY DEMOCRATS

Following the selection and entrance upon his official duties of new Democratic fed eral judge in this division, there isn't the slightest doubt but that every Republican United States commissioner will be removed and his place taken by staunch admins tration man, says the Fairbanks News Miner.
 This policy was laid down by local Dem ocratic leaders some time ago, and 1t was only few weeks ago that the matter came up for discussion at the Panama Valley Dem ocratic Club. At that meeting 1t was stated by the leaders that at present the opposl- ton controlled outlying precincts by pos sessing the commissionerships. The sltua- ton was partly met by the fact that the United States marshal has named deputies in every precinct where there is commls- sioner, and these deputies are Democrats. However, the claim was made that the party organization was not complete enough yet, and could not be until the commissonerships had been secured.
 Hence the aggressive fight that has been made to secure the district attorneyshlp, and right on it's heels the judgeship. Judge Fuller was fully aware of this purpose and why his office was sought so vigorously for Democrat. The opposition to him came more for that reason than for any other. The Democrats wanted the commissioner ships to perfect the organization that is be- ing formed now to control Alaska politics
 With this in mind, public interest from now on will be drawn to the commissioners, and these are the men who will either re- sign shortly or receive requests for their resignation, unless Democrats be among them.
 The News Miner then gives a list of the commissioners slated for removal, and at the head of the list is George w. Albrccht. Otter precinct, Iditarod." The list also in cludes Dr. W. F. Green, Takotna; E. Coke Hill, Ruby; Duke E. Stubbs, Kuskokwim precinct, and W. A. Vinal, Ophir.

AN APPARENT REASON
 FOR DELAY OF MAIL

A gentleman who but recently came in over the Seward trail, speaking of the un- satisfactory mail service, said that the req son probably was to be found in the Sew ard postoffice He stated that the mail is sorted on the steamship before it reaches Seward, and that the consignments for the various stations, towns and cities along the route are made up in separate bundles and placed in sacks labeled for their various destinations different classes of mat ter being separated In dispatching this mail from the Seward postoffice 1t would be an easy task to take the different con- signments in order for delivery to the car rier, the first and second class being gwen the preference But that this was not done was evident from the fact thta large assort- ments of mal-order house catalogues had been received while stations along the trail had not even received their frSt-class mall.
 As a reason for the nondellvery of any Seward mail on last weeks consignment he states that it is probable that naviga- tion on Turnagain arm has closed, thus necessitating the carrying of the mail from the railroad to knik by dog team. As there is usually great deal of snow along this route at this time of year, the delay is easily accounted for.
 This gentleman stated that persons living along the mail route render all the assist ance possible to the mail carriers with a view to facilitating the service, and that there is little doubt that when matters once become strengthened out at the Seward end and the congestion is relieved there will be little difficulty in getting the mail through on time.
