OREGON TOWN HOLDS
 4 MUNICIPAL AUCTION

Albany, Ore, Feb. 27-For the purpose of bringing buyers and sellers together to the mutual ad- vantage of each, and also to stimu- late trade between citizens of this city, and the surrounding towns, a public auction sale, the first of it's kind, was held here today.
 A parade, which approached the proportions of a pageant, preceded the sale.
 Everything imaginable was sold under the hammer, including horses, wagons, chickens, blows, mowers, rakes, harrows, household goods and utensils, imperishable foodstuffs and drygoods.
 No auctioneer's fees were charg- ed.
 Albany merchants took advantage of the huge crowd of agriculturists who were here attending the sale, by holding special sales of various commodities.

GREAT BRITAIN TO SPEND
 IMMENSE SUM FOR WAR

London, Feb.-The British com mons is planning for an expendi- ture in the war this year of two bill lion pounds sterling, or ten billion dollars. Britain is spending more money than any two others of the allied forces engaged in the war.
 This is the most expensive war, counting men and material, the mighty empire of Britain ever wased
 Britain will be able to finance the war for five years from the pro- ceeds of her investments abroad. France has two or three billion available.
 Russia, while prodigously rich in natural resources, and having vast population, is in different position financially from Britain and France. Her financial status was discussed at a conference of the finan2e ministers in France, and it was decided not to issue joint loan

FREED
 FROM CHARGE

Geo. w. Dillon returned from Ju- neau on the Jefferson this morn ing, having been freed from the charge that was recently brought against him by the grand jury. In speaking of the matter the Juneau Empire of Feb. 24, says:
 The fiat which went forth from the War department headquarters in Washington several months ago, for bidding the sale of malt liquor in the post exchanges at the various Alaskan forts, cost our Uncle Sam uel something in mileage, witness tees and jurors salaries, placed . 3kagway man in the light of having deliberately placed his heel prints in the laws of the commonwealth until matters were explained, and occasioned 9 visit to Juneau of Lieut.. J. l.. Benedict, q Fort Se- ward army officer, to square things in the federal court.
 George W. Dillon of Skagway was foreman of the last grand jury, for the first ten days of it's delibera- tions. After he had been excused, an indictment was returned by his fellow jurors, accusing him of sell in, malt liquor without a license. Mr Dillon was placed under arrest but was released on bonds.
 This morning. the defendant was brought before Judge Robert w. Jennings, for arraiSnment. Mir. Dill lon pleaded guilty, and told the court he had acted only as an agent for the poat exchange at Fort Se- ward, in disposing of the malt.
 Lieut.. Benedict, in assuming the responsibility for Mir. Dillon's act told Judge Jennings that the malt referred to had been brought north by the troops last June, as part of tie stock Of the post "canteen.' Sub sequently, he stated, orders were received that the malt must not be sold on the military reservation and the exchange was advised to sell the liquor to civilians, in order to get rid of it. Accordingly, Lieut.. Bene- dict stated, the malt was taken to Skagway and left in MT. Dillon's charge. The latter sold 1t in Skag- way.
 We diG nos coel that any law was being violated" the officer stated. "The post is exempt from paying local taxes, and as we were told to get rid of the malt, we did so. The malt was purchased out Of the funds of the soldiers or ganizations and the less would have fallen on the enlisted men had we been unable to sell the liquor"
 As no intent to violate the law haeObeen shown, Judge R. w. Jen- uings admitted Mir. Dillon's plea and fined him $1O. He at the same time said that had MT Dillon not plead guilty to the charge he would lave let him go without fine.

 The pioneer efforts along this line of Greenville, s. C., as presented by Miss Babb, should command the at tention of every board of health and city council in the United States. Greenville has an ordinance which requires all washerwomen to regis ter and obtain from the board of health permits to take in washing. Inspections of washerwomen are made by the Red Cross visiting nurse in reference to housing conditions, general sanitary condition ot the premises, water supply and drainage, communicable diseases in the house. hold, care in handling closhes, scrub bing boards, ironing boards, and pots and tubs. the latter being required to be galvanized iron. score-cards are kept as in dairy inspection. and to

 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that l write unto you.
 2. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
 3. Fer when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
 4. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should over take you as thief.
 ,. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
 6. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
 z. For they that sleep sleep in the night;. and they that be drunken are drunk in. the night.
 8. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
 9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
 10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live to- gether with him.
 H. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

 q know of no measure of more immense and practical value in the control or prevention of communica- ble diseases than the ordinance regu- lating washerwomen,' declares Miss Babb. q was sent to inspect the house and premises of one woman who applied for washing and found her ironing and placing freshly ironed clothes on the bed where her son, far advanced in tuberculosis, lay.
 "The remarkable and deplorable susceptibility of the negroes to tuber culosis, the rapidity with which they die of it, their bad housing condi. tions, the growing frequency of pei lagra among them, and the almost general presence of specific diseases, make this law imperative, both for them and for the protection of the white people; and it affords a splen- did method of educating the colorea population in the laws of health and sanitation"
