CORPORAL FINDS TWO
 DIAMONDS IN AFRICA

LONDON, Jan. 16-Correspondence bf the Associated Press--How an Irish Corporal picked up two diamonds from the drifting sands of his sentry post in German Southwest Africa, Is told in letter which has just reach ed his family here.
 My present post is in a desert of sand unes," he writes. "A mirage shimmers continually on the horizon. The sand. blown by the wind, fills the eyes and throat and bites into the skin.
 "It is our duty to keep the railroad open. That means very little solder ing, but a great deal of shoveling; all day long the native shovelers push aside the drifting sand, which would soon hide the rails if left to it's own devices.
 To-day, while I stood idly watching group of complaining shovelers, my eye caught an unusal flash, and l stopped and picked up diamond. the she size of bean. I searched a little 1 longer and found another, bit smal | Ter. There were no more"

$ VIEW IF THE RAILROAD
 SITUATION

When the secretary of the interior asked for only two million dollars for honstruction work on the Alaska rail road he practically fixed on Seward as the terminal. That looks like saying too much but if we analyze the matter we can see where there is really a solid foundation for the statement Two million dollars would not be enough to build any sort of a line any. where from Portage Bay. That means that Portage Bay is, so to say, dead officially. Two millions are not enough to purchase the Copper River Failroad and that means that the bogey about building to the coal fields from Cordova is laid to rest for ever. The chief aim of the government. as we all know. is to build to the Matanus. Na coal fields as quickly as possible and Secretary Lane has already told us that actual work on the construc. lion of the railroad will begin this spring. What can we deduce from all those facts?
 There is only one deduction, and that is that the government will begin immediately to build to the coal mines. The building may begin at Ship creek, or that place may be the headquarters for the work but the Alaska Northern railroad will be the chief gateway.
 It is quite possible that the govern, ment may have made some arrange. ment with the owners of this road. It has been stated that only a quarter of NJ million dollars are required to place this road in working order. However that may be, the fact that only two million dollars have been asked for shows that Portage Day and the Cop per River Railroad are out of the run. ming as competitors with this district Seward Gateway

DEBTS OF HONOR TO
 STAND UNTIL END WAR

POULOGNE. France, Jan. 19-(Cor- respondence of the Associated Press)
 Debts of honor can stand over till the end of the war Such is the pre- cedent established, says letter from Prais. by the seconds of two gentle men who had come to blows in the course of argument. The principals were informed by their seconds that every French sword should for the present be at the service of the nation, and that shedding of blood in a duel would be inexcusable as long as war lasted.

When they attack or are attacked when they are wounded or sick; by night and day. it's all the same. We have found some of their dead with cakes of chocolate between their fingers.
 During one of our Christmas arm istices, one of the German soldiers told me that the chocolate ration had been recommended by scientists as a convenient and exceedingly nutritious food, and had sustained them very we'll in some of their long marches where other foods were not available" |"

GERMAN CHILDREN
 STUDY WAR HISTORY

BERLIN, Jan. 16-(Correspondence of the Associated Press) )-The German educational authorities are taking care to teach children the history ol the war as fast as history is made. The Prussian Ministry of Education has just sent a circular letter of instruct ions 10 the school inspectors pointing out that the hour devoted to teaching history must be devoted principally to giving pupils a clear idea of the course and development of "the Great War"
 There must be awakened in the children.' says the circular. "an un- derstanding of the serious and thrill ling time in which they are living While everything must be kept out of the schools that might impIant into tne hearts or the children overWeen- Ing self-conceit or contempt and hatred for other peoples, still they should be filled with a joyous and conscious pride that they are mem. bers of a great people who are making heroic sacrifices in a just struggle against overwhelming odds"

TELEPHONE GREAT AID
 ID SURGERY AT FRONT

LONDON, Jan. 19-(Correspondence of the Associated Press) The use of the telephone as an aid to sur gerry by communicating to the oper- forceps or probe with foreign bodies forceps or probe with forelgb bodies lmbedded in the flesh, has been dis. covered and perfected by Sir James Mackenzie Davidson, who says his method will do much to simplify mil
 tary surgery.
 The X-ray. says Sir James. has se- rious limitations. It shows the pres ence of the foreign body, but gives no idea of the depth this body has penetrated or of its relation to the parts among which 1t is lodged. Sur geons often fail to find the object seen in silhouette on the fourescent screen.
 It is not necessary to have a man full of shrapnel brought from the trenches to demonstrate the use of the telephone in surgery, as a potato and nail will do quite as we'll. The surgeons uses a double pair of rece- Vers, such as worn by wireless opera tors. One of the telephone wires Is attached to piece of platinum foil. In real operation, this foil is held in place on the patients skin by plaster or bandage. In the experiments, the potato Is dipped into salt water and placed on the foil. To the end of the other telephone wire is attached a small. sterilized silver wire, which in turn is made fast to the knife. probe, neddle or forceps used in sounding the wound or incision.
 When the surgeons instrument | touches metal, whether in flesh or in a potato, distinct and unmistakable grating noise results. This means the foreign body Is discovered. ] There exists a popular fallacy that | it is necessary to remove not only bullets but every scrap of metal from the wound, But experience has shown that the human body does not mind a little metal, and the removal of buI lets Is often too dangerous to attempt

SHELLS FURNISH
 TROOPS FISH DINNER

BERLIN, Feb, 3-An unexpected fish dinner was enjoyed by some of the German troops around one Of the MasuHan lakes in East Prussia re- gently. The Russian batteries were smelling the German position. Many of their shells dropped into the lake where they exploded and stunned or Killed great numbers of perch and
 pike. They rose to the surface and were collected by the natives in boats.
