FRANCES NAVAL HERO

Admiral Boue de Lapeyrere, COM
mander OF the French naval forces.
is as popular In France as is Admiral
Jellicoe in England. He entered the
French navy nearly forty years ago,
and from the outset OF his career he
displayed marked ability.
One of his early commands was in
China, when he obtained distinction
at the battle OF Foo-Chow. His flag
ship led the attack against the
enemy, and the personal courage he
displayed made him the hero OF
France. Since then he has success
fully conducted several diplomatic ex-
petitions in the Baltic and the Medi-
terranean.
It has always been the policy Of
Admiral Lapeyrere to accompany his
feet in the fighting line. He is not
a believer in armchair commanding.
He prefers to personally give his or
ders from his flagship to directing af-
fairs from land through the agency

Shortly after he began living in,
Tucson, Smith fell in with pleasant

went to Leach and borrowed enough
to pay or Stebbins and square his

NATIONAL HOUSING
 ASSN. IN SESSION
Problems Relative to Homes to Be
 Discussed at Minneapolis

Minneapolis, Oct. 6.-How to inn prove the homes not only of the sub merged tenth but of those whose in dustry and thrift should enable them to live wholesomely and decently, how to eliminate present slums and to prevent the creation of others in the future, how to secure better types of dwellings for cities and a better system of land subdivision in new additions, and the effect of taxa tion upon housing-are some of the questions which will be considered by the delegates to the Fourth Confer ence of the National Housing Asso- citation which opens here today.
 Among the speakers are Frederick Law Olmsted, landscape architect and city planner who is head of the Ma tional City Planning Conference; John J. Murphy, Commissioner of the New York City Tenement House De- partment, which has carried out the reforms to which Jacob Riis devoted his life; Dr. E. R. A. Seligman, an authority on taxation in the country and c. B. Fillebrown, a representa- tive of the single-taxers and pr. w. A.

climate the relatively long growing season and great moisture they are of type similar to those of the coast further south.
 Thus in the Tongass forest the tideland spruce, the hemlock and the red cedar form the principal stand, species that grow in Oregon and Washington. There is no Douglas fir. There is also splendid yield of timber, not as great as on Puget Sound, but still very heavy. The spruce runs up to feet in diameter and 225 feet in height. Many stands have been cut having 75,0OO feet an acre and many small stands yield 100000 feet an acre.
 Has Big Yield
 "The Tongass forest has a total yield of about 70,00O, O,000,000 feet of useful products. With it's great quantity of timber, it's ease of log ging, it's accessibility to water trans portation and with the splendid op- portunities for water power for grinding I believe that some day the Tongass national forest will be one of the greatest centers for the manu- facture of wood pulp in the country.
 "The Chugach forest, centering about Prince William Sound, is an ex- tension of the same type of forest as the Tongass. Being somewhat further north the trees are not quite as large nor the yield so heavy. But I was very much astonished to find so much excellent timb Der, for there has been a sustained attack on the Chugach from certain quarters for several years and an effort to abolish it on the ground that the timber was worthless.
 Prof. Georgeson is doing a great work for Alaska at the Government agriculture experiment stations. had the pleasure of visiting the sta tions at Sitka and Fairbanks. When I was at Fairbanks crops of wheat and oats were being harvested. There is no question but that very large acreage in Alaska is suited to the more hardy grain crops. Unques- 1 tionably much of the country is bet ter suited to farming than great part of the intensively cultivated re- zion of Scandinavia. l do not be- lieve that Alaska offers the agricul- turist either wealth or a life of ease, but do believe that it offers a life of plenty and independence. The real development of the Territory has hardly yet begun. At the end of the century it should have a popula- tion of many million citizens of a most desirab type."

came to me of extensive fires on many of the tributaries of the up- per Yukon.
 "The forests on the public domain outside the national forests are being destroyed and no effort has been made to save them. One of the first things shall do is to urge that au- thority and funds be given to the forest service to handle this situation to save the forests on the public do- main in Alaska from being wiped out.
 we had some fires in the national forests this year, but we had our trained force at hand to fight them and they were kept out of the more valuable timber, doing relatively lit tie damage.
 Two National Forests.
 ''There are two national forests in Alaska, the Tongass, which covers the Alexander Archipelago and a strip of neighboring mainland in southeastern Alaska, and the Gnu zach, which comprises the coast forests west of Mount St. Elias to Cook Inlet. These forests are diff ferent in character from the interior forests. On account of the equable

 On the day following the Confer ence the local committee will hold a housing institute for the discussion of questions that are at present be- fore the people of Minneapolis; pro- noting garden suburbs for working men, standards of housing codes, the best types of houses, construction and maintenance, and management from both the financial and the social point of view.
 To Entertain Delegates.
 The Civic and Commerce Associa- tion and the thirty eight other civic and social organizations which have charge of the local arrangements have made elaborate plans for the entertainment of the delegates. An exhibition of some of the best hous- ing work in the country has been assem bled. An automobile inspection trip which will show the beauties, as well as the ugly spots of the city, has been planned, round table luncheons are arranged for each day and on the evening of the last day the citizens of Minneapolis will give a banquet to visiting members of the National Housing Association.

AT BAY,
 DEFY U. 5. POSSE
Old Indian Fighters Com pletely Surround AS Rene
 galdes, and Close in Today.

Bluff, Utah, by Dolores, Col, Feb. 25.-A decisive battle between the Flutes and the Nebeker posse im- pends tonight.
 Every effort by the government agents to force Old Pole. Hatch, Cosey and the other outlaws to sur render has failed, and Marshal Nebe- ker is expected to order an attack be- fore sunrise. He has laid plans to circle the Indians, who, AS strong, are entrenched in Buffers canyon.
 Two Navajo scouts from the Ship rock agency gained access to Pole today and talked with the outlaws. They brought back message to the posse from Pole that he and his men would fight to finish. The renegades said the white men had killed several of their men in the fighting Sunday and they were determined upon re- venge.
 The squaws and children have been moved out of Cosey's camp and sent further down the river. The men have prepared for battle and want no weddings in the camp.

J. s. ASKS BOTH SIDES 10 MAKE
 CONCESSIONS
Proposes Germany Cease Submarine Attacks and England Let Foodstuffs
 Through.

Washington, Feb 25.---From an au- thoritative so"roe was learned to- night the proposals which the United States made to Great Britain and Germany in the notes which were prepared after the meeting of the cabinet on Friday last and immedi- ately dispatched to Ambassadors Page and Gerard.
 Both Great Britain and Germany are asked definitely Ito withdraw their mines from the open seas.'' .'~ Great Britain has been asked to permit the importation of foodstuffs into Germany for -conbatants under the supervision of agents 0! the United States.
 Germany mas been asked to cease attacks on merchant vessels by sub- marines.
 The two not4s are said to not ex- ceed 300 words each in length.
 In asking the two belligerent na- ,tions to stop the practice of sowing mines in the open seas along the line of established trade routes, the United States declares such conduct IC d lag dAC N1olACtOI1 Ol il1tSA AAceAOAA al law, and indefensible under the usage of civilized nations. It Is ue- clared to be grossly violative of the inherent and scared rights of neu- trals.
 The request that submarines shall cease their attacks on merchant V2s- sels goes tc the root of the quco- tions affecting the commerce of the United States passing through the English channel, for England, Ger man, Dutch and Scandinavian ports
 In the opinion of the informant the United States has nicely balanc' ed it's proposition to the two coun- tries. Each is asked to make a con cessicn wh:rt the United States re- gards as eqaal Tn importance.
 1t was rnqualifiedly asserted today by the state department officials thai the United States had not indicated to Great Britain or to Germany wna' this country would do if either ol both of the belligerents shall rejec the propositions of the American notes.

The successful forcing of the Dard- anelles by the allied fleet would, in the opinion of many military experts, be the most decisive and important event of the war up to the present Once the Franco British fleet makes it's entrance into the sea of Marmora. the city of Constantinople will be at the mercy of the fleet, and Turkey will virtually be eliminated from the military situation.
 With the opening of the Bosporus, which would be simple matter after Constantinople had been taken, Rus sia could be easily supplied with the gul.s and munitions which she ,orely needs, and the enErmOus stores Of wheat winch have been collected on the shores of the Black sea would be released for the benefit of the west ern allies.
 The forts are not yet all dest' oya' however. The Dardanelles are 33 miles long, and from 1900 yards 70 four miles mide. Important fortitica- tions which have recently been sup piled with German guns. manned Oy German officers, are built upon the shores. Some twelve years age, Lord Charles Beresford estimated the cost of forcing the Dardanelles q. "eo per cent of the ships making the at tempt" and the defenses at that time were not what they are now.
