subjects, the announcement relative to Sunday
saloons coming toward the end. t
Aldermen and outsiders could scarcely believe
their ears when that part of the message dealing
with the saloons was reached When its import
had sunk into the minds OF the listeners, there was
a scattering round of applause. Gloom settled
over the eountenances Of numerous individuals.

Island eggs are Scarcer than ever
and the demand great.
At meeting of Oahu Poultrymen
held touay at the Marketing Division
and attended by most of the citizen
poultry and egg producers of Oahu, it
was decided that hereafter three
different grades of eggs are to be
quoted US follows: Select Oahu eggs
not to weigh less than "a OF to the
dozen, to be clean and not over 4S
hours old, each producer to stamp his
eggs with his name or mark and to
stand responsible for them. Eggs re-
ceived from the Othet Islands and
eggs that are more than As hours old
are to be classed as No. ! Island eggs,
unless they have some defect that
would throw them into the lower
grade, known as the second grade. In
the second grade will be put all small,
dirty eggs and all eggs that are not
fresh enough for table purposes. The
price of select Oahu eggs will be ,
cents higher than the price for No.
Island eggs and the price ,of Cd grade
eggs will be cents or more lower
than the price of No. ] eggs. This
arrangement win give the man who
produces strictly fresh eggs the re-
turns which he should receive and au
Dramatically punish the man who sends
an inferior grade to the market. Gus
toners will have the choice of three
grades when buying and can expect
to get what they pay for The retail
price will be 10 cents higher per dOz
en- in each case than the wholesale
price AMI when the buyer sees the
price of select Oahu eggs quoted al
65 cents dozen Wholesale he can yex
pect the retail price to be 70 cents
Buyers to protect themselves SHOULD
insist that the producers name OF
mark be stamped on all eggs Wher

mer can expect to get eggs that arr
not more than 4S hours old, WheI

among the soldiers and the people. In Clinge, for
instance all clubs cafes and liquor stores must be
closed from an hour before sunset until an hour

 Not Enough for Latin America.
 Special consideration is given to the bureau of foreign and domestic com merce, of which Dr. Edward Pratt Is the chief, in the committees re- port to the matter of promotion of commerce in Latin America. During the present year a congressional ap- of $5O,OOO is available for this purpose. Next year the amount will be $75.OOO. It is generally be- lieved that with the close of the Flu ropean war we may be able to hold against European competitors goodly proportion of the markets for American products which we have now gained in Latin American coun- tries. The committee believes that the appropriation of s75,OOO for 1916 Should be increased.

ADVISES MINERS DEVELOP ALAsKA'S QUARTZ MINES

Dr. Alfred Brooks is advising all quartz miners in the Fairbanks dis trict to keep up the assessment work on their claims and not to let them go back to the government. He be- lieves the quartz possibilities of the Fairbanks district will have been un- derestimated by the miners, and says that as soon as cheaper fuel is avail able the mines will flourish.
 Regarding the antimony mining, pr. Brooks said that neither he nor anyone else In the country had paid a great deal of attention to 1t here tofore. as the demand for the ore was not great. but now the industry is in teresting many people. At the pres ent time it is being mined in num- Der of places in the United States, but there are only few places where the ore is as free from lead as it is in the Fairbanks district, and for that reason it is particularly valuable.
 Just what the antimony industry will amount to after the close of the war. the geologist is not willing to hazard a guess, as he thinks it will depend upon the attitude of the world powers toward disarmament. If the nations now engaged in the mighty struggle in Europe wear themselves out, with neither winning decisive victory, 1t is probable. he thinks. that there will be a demand for antimony which will be used to replenish tho ammunition stores. The whole in dustry is so uncertain, however, that Dr. Brooks does not know what ad- vice to give the people contemplating entering the business.
 The one thing the geologist feeis certain of, however, is that the quartz industry of the interior will amount to a good deal after cheaper fuel is landed.

coRoovA WOMAN NOW
 FREIoHTINe ON TRAIL.

Mrs. Rose Johnson, formerly of Valdez, and so far as known the only woman freighter in Alaska, arrived from Matanuska Junction last night and left this morning over the trail with her dog team, and a full load of freight for home. She has a road house at the junction.
 Mrs. Johnson was accompanied by her young son. whom she says is mo good on the trail, being too light for sled work" The woman herself is not much larger than the boy, but there is no discounting her ability in handling a sled.
 No sooner had she arrived in town last night than she commenced to so- licit freight, and had no difficulty in securing enough consignments to fill her sled. Most of the load, however, Is her own, consisting of late maga- zines, for which she will receive double and triple price at Matanuska Junction.
 Mrs Johnson's reputation as a dog musher is well known in Valdez, where some years back she freighted all of the machinery and equipment for a one-stamp mill over one of the glacier trails to the mineral belt west of town.-Seward Post.
