OLD Tunnel
On the Weston State Hospita
Grounds is Cause of Cover
nor'S Visit There.

Information received by the Tele-
gram concerning the purpose of Gov
ernor H. D. Hatfield's visit to Wes-
ton following his visit to the local
fair Thursday was to view large
tunnel claimed to have been encoun-
tered in the construction OF the new
addition to the state hospital for the
insane at that place.
From what can be learned the
contractors doing the work on the
hospital addition were unable to ac-
count for the tunnel and it is said
that the state had no record of it,
and for that reason Governor Hatfield
went there for the purpose of making
some investigation. and probably to
determine what action should be
taken as a result OF this discovery.

GETS A "FRAME.r

Fred L. Simeral. one of the
managers of the Palace thea
ter, thinks he is entitled to a
frame" in the Telegram be-
cause of the arrival of ten
pound boy baby Saturday af-
ternoon at his home at 621
Locust street. The news OF
the youngsters arrival was
briefly reported in the home
edition Of the Telegram Satur-
day afternoon, but 1t was SO
near press time that the limo
type operators did not have
time to put a border around
the item. AS this is really an
important matter to Fred and
as he has promised to teach
the boy to root" for the Tele-
gram. the distinction is here
by accorded him. or rather the
boy. The distinction is also
due because the boy is the
first born after eight years
Of married life. The baby has

Sounds of Laughter
 Reunites Cronies

REDLANDS, Calif-The sound of hearty laugh, which one of them was so we'll acquainted with thirty years ago, brought together two old cronies who have been separated for that length of time in the persons of Captain Robert Bosworth and Cap tain John Fitzgerald, the latter of Hollywood, while the former is also a resident of California.
 Just recently Captain and Mrs Bosworth were dining with ptry of friends at the home of MT. and Mrs c. A. Sherrod near Highland While on the porch, the genial laugh of Captain Bosworth was heard by a party of motorists. who were walk ing up the hills. One of the num- Der, Captain Fitzgerald, thought he recognized it and climbing up to the Sherrod home, he made the discovery that it was the original laugh of his old comrade.
 They have both held positions in the navy, but have now settled down and are residing in California for the rest of their days.

induced by storm of explosive
 shell. General Castelnau has said that shock must now be produced
 by an overpowering artillery fire in stead of by attacks of infantry. Lloyd-George has recently stated that Germany is producing 250.0o0 rounds
 of field-gun ammunition every day. While the majority of German
 guns are of about 3-inch calibre, she has immense numbers of heavy guns and howitzers ranging from finch 10 l2-inch and she has been using large quantities of heavy artillery ammunition. The amount of cotton used for every round fired will aver age well over four pounds. The expenditure of cotton in Germany 1 is, therefore, about four times 250.- 900 pounds, or l 900 900 pounds per day. 1 That figure does not include the amount used for small-arms ammuni- | ton. that needed for the navy. or that used to make clothing for the army. One million pounds of cotton
 per day is 2,O0O bales of 800 pounds each or 73OoOo bales per annum, about one-half the usual eyportation of cotton to Germany. Germany's reserve supply of powder has un- doubtedly been used up by this time and her future ability to wage
 wal for a long period depends on d
 regular supply of cotton from the | United States: for all other sources of supply are closed to her
 England is making the most stren- uous efforts to prevent cotton from reaching Germany. She realizes full we'll that if she can stop these i'm ports Germany will be beaten within d year. Cotton is different from copper, another essential, in that copper is indestructible and remains in one form or other in the country into which it is imported, while cotton disappears shortly after being manufactured. Moreover. copper car : fridge cases may be remelted and used over and over again. In addi- ton, Germany has considerable cop per ore within her boundaries, and can eke out her copper supply by smelling ores which in time of peace could not profitably be used. She must import cotton, however, not only to clothe her population and armies. but to furnish her men with ammunition. without which their skill, courage and patriotism could
 not avail.
 We have heard much talk lately about the starvation of women and children" in Germany as the result of Great Britain's blockade. Senator
 Beverdge in his Illuminating articles has exposed that fable.
 IL is cotton starvation, no- a food starvation, that Germany fears.

Attorney Cobb
 Files Demurrer

JUNEAU-On the allegation that the plaintiffs have no capacity to maintain the suit recently filed by the First division legislative mem bers and others against the Territory of Alaska in regard to the distribu- tion of funds received from the sale of forest reserve lands, J. II. Cobb attorney for the Territory. this morning filed a demurrer. which al leges that the complaint does not allege that the forest reserve from which said moneys were derived is situated within the boundaries of any county, or that compainants reside in the county whereby they or il are entitled to any exclusive benefit therefrom.
 A second point in the demurrer reads No facts are alleged showing that the complainants or the people of Judicial Division No. 1 are entitled to have said moneys expended in said division otherwise than pre- scribed by the Alaska Legislature /"
 Continuing the defense states "The court has no jurisdiction of the case of action, in that the complain ants seek to have the Court by it's decree modify and control a legisla- tive appropriation of public moneys, and substitute such decree for the Legislative Act"

 According to the announcement made, the truck will leave the Nor dale hotel next Wednesday. How ever, as stated by Mir. Hoyt yester- day, if the rain continues, he will not attempt to make the trip until later in the week. Anyone intend ing to make the trip to the coast should see MT. Hoyt at the Nordale for reservations on the car,
 By those who have examined it., the Overland car of MT Hoyt's is declared to be one of the prettiest machines operating on the road "Pretty is as pretty does,' too for by making several trips between Valdez and Gulkana over Thompson's pass, the car has proven it's ability to negotiate the toughest kind of trail
 Since it was brought here the Overland has been completely over hauled and the machinery given a thorough cleaning MT. Hoyt states that he was surprised at the little amount of work which needed to be done on the car, as it has been running now for nearly a year has never been overloaded before.

THE WAR SIGNIFICANCE OF COT
 TON.

For warning nations, cotton is king. In the past cotton has been important in war merely as raw material for textile mills, the amount of it used to make smokeless powder having been very small compared with that needed for ordinary indus trial use. Cotton is the principal in gredient by weight in all smokeless powders. which consist of nitro-cel- lulose of about 1212 per cent nitra- tion. Strange as it may seem, more cotton is now being consumed in Germany for the manufacture of smokeless powder than for indus trial use.
 The greatest surprise of the war has been the vast expenditure of ar tillery ammunition. Not even the far-seeing German general staff had contemplated such enormous expendi- lures, so enormous, in fact, that the entire ammunition supply of the United States army would not last the German army two days. In their successful onslaught on the Tarnow-Gorlice front of the Rus sian army in Galicia the German artillery used, it has been stated by Lloyd George, 100000 rounds of ann munition from 3-inch to 12-inch in single hour. So great Is the de- fensive power of modern machine guns and rifles, that troops strongly entrenched can be driven out only by destroying the barbed wire en- tanglements, leveling the parapets of the trenches to the ground. and sending forward infantry before the enemy has recovered from the shock
