 ing from Government.

WINNIPEG, Sept. 29.-The trial of former Premier Robin of Manitoba, and four members of his cabinet on the charge of having grafted millions of dollars from the government in connection with government con- tracts, is progressing in the courts here.

LONDON DOCKS ARE
 BUSIER NOW THAN EVER.

LONDON, March 9.-The newspap- CT charge that chaos exists at the Lon don docks, with the implication that high wages have caused the dock la borers to drink instead of work, is denied by J. G. Broodbank, chairman of the dock and warehouse committee of the port of London authority.
 Mir. BrOodbank admits that the con gestion has at times been severe since the outbreak of the war, but the i'm provement toward normal conditions is rapid and few weeks ought to see the wharves fairly well cleared.
 The real trouble, he says, is due to the fact that the needs of the army and navy come before those of the merchants. Military and naval ship ments are enormous. Although the war called away large number of re- servists from the docks, there are G. 900 men employed this month as against 4,OOO at the same time last year. In addition, the London port

CORDOVA NOTES.

The remains of Louis SchOrnbOrn, who was murdered at Chisana a short time ago, are now on their way to Cordova, where they will be embalm- ed by undertaken Lambert and then shipped to Seattle for interment.
 The fire which destroyed the Glacier House, north of Ernestine, originated through the carelessness of two hush CTS coming out over the trail from Fairbanks.
 In commenting on the continued at tacks made by the Daily Alaskan upon reputable citizens of Cordova Judge Brown, at public hearing last night, deplored the attitude of that paper in the following language: "YOu know that men who have this feeling are not impartial, they are not unpre- judiced, they are not free from bias, in the very nature of things. They are nHr2ured by this sense of dislike and that is the bad feature that makes nothing but trouble ani the troubles that these small communities have grow out of just that very thing, of men trying to hurt each other and they both usally succeed if they start out to hurt each other. You can not justify these articles in my judg- ment as a bona fde public-spirited matter of calling attention to the wrong doing of a pubic officer. They seem to me more in the nature of cav fling. l believe that men who hold others up to ridicule and shame and keep nagging other men in the papers are laying themselves open to some retaliation.

CHANCELLoR's SON
 DIED IN THE RANKS.
Brilliant German Debated in English
 at Oxford University.

OXFORD, England, March 9.-The German Chancellor's son, Frederick von Bethmann-HOllweg, who was kill ed at Mlava, was a German Rhodes scholar at Oxford from 1908 to 1910, residing in Balliol College.
 He took an active interest in sports, especially rowing, but i'll health com pelled him to give up any active par ticipation in athletics after the middle of his course. He then turned his at tentions to debating, and became a valued and brilliant member of the Oxford Union, where his speeches were frequently praised for their ex- cellent English. One of his best ef- forts was a speech in which he vigor- ousIy opposed the notion that German policy was a danger to the peace of Europe.
 On his return to Germany, he de- voted himself chiefly to literary and artistic pursuits. At the beginning of the war he went to the Eastern front as a non-commssioned officer of the Breslau cavalry.

 Property Owners of Seward:

There is a steady and increasing demand for property in Seward, and for improved property in particular. Customers are making inquiries of us daily and the supply of cabins avail able for rent is at present extremely limited. Any kind of a cabin or build ing in Seward is now rentable. Eevery steamer is bringing new arrivals to Seward and it is necessary for them all to have a place to live when they arrive here.
 We want to ask every property holder in Seward to assist us in look ing after the wants of the new corners and to that end, ask that they furnish us with list of their property, that they wish to rent and we will do all that we can to lease or rent it for you.
 It does not make any difference whether it is a residence or business property, we have numerous demands for bith, and will be able to place either for you in short time.
 It is up to the citizens of Seward to look after the comfort of the new corners and as an act of hospitality alone it is up to you to list your prop erty if you care to rent it.
 We now have few choice bargains in real estate, and if you are in the market for anything in that line, we would be pleased to go over the list with you, and possibly we may find just what you want
 Strangers are cordially invited to call at our office and make their wants known.

 To mention some of the additional burdens that war has thrown upon the port of London, the years sugar sup ply purchased by the government has to come through here; about 15O army transports ply in and out of the Thames; merchant ships are diverted to London which ordinarily are berth ed in other ports now closed for nav al reasons; and all of the various sup plies such as Australian wool, lately held up by the exploits of the Emden, are beginning to arrive.

OF
Interest Added
To Huge Exhibit

Attractions of interest are being
added TO the exhibits in South Bends
Electrical Prosperity week eXposi-
ton. and this is especially true of
the meter departments exhibit. This
display has been a point of interest
since the opening of the exhibition
Monday afternoon, and last night
the aisles were blocked with people
wrapt in the feature displays Of this
booth.
Besides the $4,000 volt jump
spark, which has attracted hundreds
OF visitors To the exposition, there
is a small aeroplane, in which the
youngsters especially are interested.
There is a story in this miniature
model.
A Wright pattern, identical to the
one used by Lincoln Beachey, and
built to a scale with even the most
minute parts corresponding TO those
of the great flyer, this bi-plane, made
by Leon Avery. South Bend. is con-
sidered a marvel of efficient handt-
work. Seat, wheel, levers and motor
are patterned to operate the planes
and propeller in the same manner as
the larger continuance. Young Avery
was three months making this
model.
Ross Avery, known locally and
throughout this section as a wizard
with things electrical, and patentee
I Of a wireless continuance, has con-
structed the smallest self-starting
electrical motor believed to De in
existence today. This motor, no
larger than a penny, sets on the base
of a wine glass under a large globe,
and will be shown in action during
the balance of the show. 1t is ex-
planned that with most small motors
/ it is necessary TO assist them in
starting, but not with the Avery pat
tern.
The tango tacks is another fea-
ture of the meter booth, a powerful
magnet working through a mirrored
surface on which two tacks dance
and caper about within the radius of
the mirror become magnetized and
form a sunfower design, rising and
| falling with the switching on and
off Of the current. The purpose of
the meter booth is primarily to edu-
cate electric patrons to read their
own meters.
The attendance figures for Wednes-
day were $3.50, according TO regis
ters on the turnstiIes.
