taken in the interest of Serbia, or whom she also is the ally
 Premier Venizelos' Reply.
 Premier Venizelos replied: By your letter of today you have been so good as to inform me of the arrival at Saloniki of the first detachment of French troops and of the decision Of France and England to send their troops to help Serbia, their ally, adding that the two powers count on Greece not to oppose measures taken in the interests of Serbia, wherof she also is the ally
 "'In answer to your letter, I have the honor to declare to Your Excel lency that, being neutral in the Euro- pean war, the royal government could not possibly authorize the proceeding in question, for it. constitutes breach of Greece's neutrality, the more mani fest since it comes from two great belligerent powers. It is, therefore, the duty of the royal government to protest against the passage Of foreign troops across Greek territory. The circumstances that these troops are destined solely to aid Serbia, Greece's ally, in no way modif1es the legal position of the kings govern ment; for even from a Balkanic point of view Greeces neutrality could not be affected, before an actual cacus foederis was committed, by the dan ger now threatening Serbia, which caused the dispatch of international troops to her help"
 Officers Cordially Received
 The French and British officers who already have landed have been re- ceived most cordially by the local naval, military and civil authorities, and have been able to begin work inn mediately on their arrival. Public opinion is that it is necessary for the entente powers to give assistance to Serbia

RY. PRESIDENT VISITS HERE

Fairbanks daily newspapers a--r looked the fact that this city recently had as a guest a railroad president. none other than C. W. Pidcock, of the Georgia Northern railroad Mr ridcock was accompanied by Mrs Pid- cock. and both of them were among the most enthusiastic boosters of Alaska in the tourist party that left here last week to continue their way down river.
 some tourists became much inter ested in MI ana Mrs. Pidcock From other tourists comes the story of how Mr. and Mrs Pidcock caught up with the tourist party at White horse by the Use of special train from Skasway.
 1t seems that when MT. and Mrs. Pidcock arrived at Skagway the other tourists had already departed on the train for Whitehorse. Not 10 be left behind, the railroad presi- dent at once chartered a special train. and with this caught up with the regular party before the latter took the boat from Whitehorse.
 From what was told here it seems that Mr. Pideock is a railroad man au the way through and is just as much at home in a locomotive cab as in the office of the highest official of the company. He demonstrated this. it is said, when he was on the special train on the way to White horse, for from the summit down he took charge of the throttle himself and drove the engine to it's destna- ton.

Club Postpones
 Proposed lair

Acting upon the suggestion mad by Secretary McPherson of the Alas. ka Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. the executive com mittee of the Fairbanks Commercial club decided, at it's meeting Mon day night, to postpone the holding of an exposition here until the rail road is completed.
 It was decided, howver, t'2at Fair banks should celebrate in 1917, when practically all of the other Alaska towns will observe the half-cenlury of the American ownership of Alas ka It is MT. McPherson's plan to organize a big tourist party in 1917 and as it visits each place in Alas. ka local celebration can be held there. In that way he thinks thal all of Alaska can be properly rep resented
 Members of the Commercial club decided that as there will be limited facilities for transportation unti! the railroad is completed, it would be best to postpone the local fair ur:il that time.

bers of varying sizes. The unique feature of the memorial is that for the first time the architects have taken into consideration, and ara making use Of fundamental rules of acoustics. Touching this feature. Mr. Swartwout said
 "I think no building has yet been designed wherein the architect knew exactly in advance just what acous- tical effect was to be obtained The usual practise has been to follow some accepted and successful in terior layout, and to hope for the best. In even so recent an instance as a very late New York theatre the acoustics have been admittedly poor and correction of the defects does not seem to have been possi- ble Professor Sabine has worked out comprehensive system of acoustics. and we have laid out the memorial along the definite lines he has laid down. It is now quite possible to foretell just what effect will be gained. This has been taken advantage of in the design also of the Missouri capitol
 Mir. Swartwout propounded an in teresting theory accounting for the inchoate condition of American arch lecture during a certain period, in which some of the more glaring ex- aItples of unsuitable design were 10 be found
 If you will consider the historical factors subsequent to 1880" he sad, 'I think you will find that mater ialism was beginning to make itself felt in the world and that this reach ed it's zenith in the period that saw the greatest influence of the mater ialistic philosophies. perhaps shortly before the middle sixties As arch lecture is essentially an idealistic expression, and idealism is obviously of a spiritual nature, the material ism from which the world suffered at that time would tend, it would seem. to a smothering of the finer types of idealism. I do not make this statement didactically, but merely offer it as a theory"

Juvenile Bostonian
 Will Return Here

Miss Madge Jordan, who was here recently as one of the Juvenile Bos- tonians, is coming back to Fair banks. According to word received from her on the last boat she will arrive here this week on the steamer Yukon, and she will spend the winter as the guest of Mrs. R. w. Calder head.
 When the Bostonians were here Miss Jordan became much pleased with the place, and one day in dis cussing the trip here with Mrs Calderhead, with whom she became well acquainted, she was invited to stay awhile. Owing to her contract with the Bostonians, however, she could not accept the invitation. She managed later to get Mrs. Lang, di- rector of the company, to allow her to leave the company at Dawson 50 that she could come back to Fair banks.

Singleton Plans
 To l anne Caribou

J. A. Singleton, of Panama Cross, ing, has asked the aid of Delegate Wicl[ersham in his effort to get the government to permit him to dOmesticate caribou, which he thinks can be tanned and raised for meat at a profit Mr. Wickersham has prom. ised that he will assist him as much as possible.
