The marvellous resourcefulness of Germany in military matters Is again illustrated in her employment of gas bombs in the assaults against intrench-
 ed positions held by the enemy. While
 we hear but little. and only at intervals concerning the use of those missiles it is indicated in the brief references contained in the war dispatches that Germany has not only discovered a new instrument of warfare, but is us- ing it with deadly effect against her
 foes As yet W. are not aware of the
 exact nature of these seemingly reVo- lutionary instruments, but whether they kill or merely stupify the un- fortunate soldiers who are compelled to inhale their noxious fumes it is evil
 dent that the enemy are inclined to have most wholesome respect for their capacity to jeopardize the safet of those against whom they are em-
 ployed and it has been directly inti- mated that the allies are so impressed with their effectiveness that they are preparing to follow the German lead by employing bombs of similar nature in their own operations. Even as imi
 tation is the sincerest nattery, the fact
 that the enemies of Germany are in tending to follow her lead in the use
 of gas bombs, Is the most powerful at testation as to their value as an agency of war. On at least three distinct occasions the British war reports ascribe the success of the German of fensive to the employment of these bombs. notably in the recent attempt of the Germans to cut their way 10 Calais and also in the operations east of Ypres reported yesterday If, as the many indication suggest, this new method of piacing the enemy hors de combat, is
 tion of the great struggle, it is clear that we must credit Germany with a ling as are her gigantic siege guns and
 the development attained in subma rne an almost revolutionary effect on mod . ern warfare.

NOME, ALASKA, MAY 26, 1915.

That great hearted kindliness SC characteristic of the men and women of the Northland has again displayed itself in the case of the unfortunate engineer of the Corwin, ]. R. Jackling
 who lost lower limb a short time prior to the arrival of the vessel at Unimak Pass. We are told in terse sentances, containing not the least hint that the gift was anything out of was subscribed for the unfortunate man before the little vessel departed from Unalaska all of which was con tributed by the passengers and crew. While two hundred dollars is not a large sum. be it remembered that it was the gift of q few people, the ma
 iority of whom are dependant on days labor for support This open handed kindness on the part of people of whom but few have an assured in
 come, deserves the fullest measure of praise and we would that we were worthy of the task of eulogizing their noble hearted generosity. but. as the expression of the just measure of praise due is beyond our limitations, We can but remark that it was grand and noble, but at the same time il must be said that expressive as was that gift of whole souled kindness and com passion for suffering and affiiction, it was but one of many instances wherein the people of the North have displayed q most superlative kindliness and charity for the unfortunate. and dis tressed We believe that nowhere on this beautiful earth is the milk of hu- man kindness" more susceptible of dis play than among the people of this great broad land of the North, the ma . jority of whom seem to have inbibed something of the spirit of bigness and broadness peryading the wide domain in which they dwell Let but hint of sickness and suffering, sorrow or dis tress, be forthcoming and there are always numberless hands ready to help. to comfort and alleviate. And, kindliest charity to all, it is seldom that little or any regard is paid to social condi- ton, and the lowly and humble are as welcome sharers in the generosity of the Northern people as are those of higher rank and station. Not that we believe that social lines are not as risidly drawn as elsewhere but it has been demonstrated time and again that in answer to the appeal of suffering and distress. caste distinctions are usually forgotten and in the display of that noblest of all human virtues both rich and poor unite. glad to help, and

Dupont City, Va, July IL. -Declar-
In gthat he has been given a call blythe
sudden riches which have come to him
and the growth of a community of the
unregenerate at his door, the Rev.
Daniel Day, of Dupont, a retired Meth
odist minister, is about to return to
the pulpit.
Six years ago, the Rev. Day bought
farm of 100 acres at this place
for $1,100. Last October, broken in
health, he retired to the farm, expect
ing to end his day as a small farmer
in this community. Vigorous outdoor
work in his cornfields has greatly re-
stored his health.
Shortly after he arrived. several
units of the $40, 900, 900 0Dupontpowder
plant half mile from his farm were
completed, and the factory began to
employ a great force of men. The
army of men increased to 100 and
then to nearly $4,000. 1t suddenly
dawned on a number of people that a
new city of 10000 or $4,000 people
was forming on the peninsula near the
rivers.
A small tract of land near the Rev.
Days farm was cut up into city lots.
was sold in a day at prices averaging
5000 q lot. An unprecedented boom
ensued, and these lots are now nearly
all covered with buildings, with lots
selling from $4,000 to $4,000.
Clanle Bag of Gold
The tide of building swept up to
the edge of Days farm and for blocks
beyond. Offer after offer was made
the aged minister for his property, but
he declined to sell. A representative
of a Chicago syndicate followed the
minister about for two weeks literally
clanking a bag of gold at him. One
day his patience ran out.
HE that maketh haste to get rich
shall not go unpunished. Get off my
land" he shouted. The representative
of the syndicate left.
Meanwhile the minister had become
acquainted with a young engineer who
was surveying adjoining lands for a

The Rev. DR.. Fox Makes
Powerful Plea For Peace

At Grace Methodist Church last Sum

preached a sermon of remarkable pow
er The Birth of a Nation" using the
| text, Put them in fear, 0 Lord. that
the nations may know themselves to
be but men. 1t was really a prayer for
peace. In part he said:
I'VE have come to the celebration of
another anniversary of the birth of the
nation. Birthdays are milestones along
the great highways of life. The birth
of the meanest and obscurest Individual
is an event of greater importance than
the launch of vessel, or for that mat
ter the launch of a new world.
1T was a great piece of statesman
ship that crowded the loyal sentiments
of the American people into the
Declaration of Independence. 1t was
only a little fragment of people who
stood around the proposition that all
days when our forefathers championed
the cause of freedom as against the
oppression and tyranny of the mother
country. The population has grown in
mere handful of people to hundred
million. With the steady. and phe-
nomenal growth of, population have
