 It was transformed team that turned out last night, compared with the team that played he first game with Sitka. In the first game the boys won by individual play ing, while last night the boys show ed team work along with accurate shooting that fairly kept the big crowd gasping.
 It would be hard to pick star on Ketchikans lineup with every body playing tip top ball. Pat Moran the new forward proved a tower of strength and no small a. mount of credit belongs to him for the result of the game.
 During the first half the game was smewhat marred by jangline with the referee, which however was not the fault of either team. but an apparent desire on the part of that gentleman To delay the game while he imparted his knowi- edge to both players and spectators Ray Hall however took the reins Of government the second half to tae satisfaction of all concerned. Both teams played clean fast basket ball and Metlakahla can be assured of awe1come any time they come over.

BRITISH TROOPS TRAPPED
 AND SLAUGHTERED Five thousand Were Killed Through Treachery of the Turks

AMSTERDAM, Dec. 10-- Brit ish forces in Mesopotamia, have been routed with heavy losses, just when Bagdag was within their grasp, through the treachery of Arab tribesmen, according to ad- vices from Berlin today.
 Hordes of Arabs made their way up the Tigris with the British. under General Townsend. almost to the gates of Bagdad. Professing in tense hatred for the Turks, the Arabs led the British into a trap.
 Arab scouts sent ahead of the British forces, reported only com paratively small bodies of Turkish troops defending Bagdad.
 At the crucial moment in the bat tie near Ctesiphon the Arabs sud- denly turned fiercely upon the Brit. ish, according to dispatches received by the BerlinVossiche Zeitung, at tackled both of Townsend's flanks and slaughtered several hundred troops before artillery forced them to flee to the Turkish lines
 An official dispatch from the Turkish war office described the de- feat of the British as rout. The Turks have pursued the fleeing Brit ish nearly 100 miles down the Tigris to within a few miles of their base at Kut-El-Amara, and are continuing their attacks, it was stated. The belief prevails in Con- stantinople that the British will not make a second attempt to capture Bagdad. dsN
 ''The pursuit of the defeated Brit ish proceeds energetically," said the Turkish statement. "0n Wednesday the enemy attempted to make a stand, but lost several hundred pris- oners, including major, a captain, a lieutenant and one aviator.
 "We captured two transport ships on the Tigris loaded with food; two monitors, two carrying ten cannon and the other four can non and three machine guns and munitions supplies. One of these ships is now being used against the retreating enemy"
 An official statement issued in London admitted defeat of the British Mesopotima with the loss of nearly 5000 men and declared General Townsend had been forced to retire to within a few miles of t-El-An1ara before greatly superior enemy forces.n No men, tion was made of the treachery of the Arabs.

FRENCH HATE
 FERDINAND

PARIS, Dec. 6-Kaiser Wilhelm H., is a popular idol in France to- day compared with Ferdinand of Bulgaria. The French hate him. They call him the regegrade king.
 Ferdinand is the grandson of Louis Philippe of France; his mothe the Princess Clementine, whom Fer dinand in the early days of his reign called ''the first Of all my statesman Practically a French ruler of the Bulgars, he received the French troops with German rifles and bayonets.

 ..I remember when Ferdinand ,sarned that Prince Alexander ot Bulgaria was Kidnapped in the sos that gave Ferdinand his chance. Bulgaria was left without a ruler and, as nobody else seemed willing to touch the job, Ferdinand took 1t.
 Ferdinand went to Sofia by river, in secret, at night in August, 1Se7. We of the diplomatic service never thought he would make good. he was only 25. But, bon Dieu, he had his mother and she was de- termined to make king Of him, and her French tact did just that for Ferdinand the Renegade. sir. l wouldn't have given 3 sou-markee TOT his throne then, and not much more for his life, for Bulgaria WAS a dozen Mexico's rolled into one and nearly all Europe was against him.
