H. Connolly Pollack, whose chief
aim in life seems to be keeping his
champion, Freddie Welsh, from get
ting into decision fight, is out with
a new announcement. He says after
Welsh and Willie Richie settle their
little dispute at Madison Square Gar
den, March II, he is going to send
Freddie Welsh against all corners in
twenty-round decision battles any
where the promoters will offer enough
kale. Promises and announcements
to this effect have emanated from
Welsh and his manager at regular
intervals since the Welshman won
his crown, but up to date they have
managed to sidestep all encounters
where there was chance for the
Britisher to drop his title.

In the Young Ahearn-Willie Lewis
battle few days ago, the first fistic
struggle staged in the new campaign,
each received $4,000. If the promo
tiers can pay this class of boxers two
thousand per each and get away,
what, oh what, would they pay pair
of champions or real contenders?
Eastern fighters are already begin
ming to prick up their ears. That
two thousand noise listens awfully
sweet to their battered ears and if
the promoters keep it up Cuba is go
ing to be as full of boxers and al
legged boxers as Ban Johnson's of ex-
pletives against the Feds.

ATTEMPTED ID SAVE COLORs OF PRzEMYsl

PETROGRAD, June 2.-A Kiev newspaper publishes the following ac- count of the Austrian officers attempt to save the colors of the fortress of Prezemsyl:
 At the surrender of Prezemysl the standard of the fortress and the colors of regiments constituting it's garrison disappeared. A few days ago a party of captured officers, with Gen eral Tomashy at their head, was quar- tered in Kiev. AS the result of infor- nation received, the prisoners were searched. In General Tomashy's handbag was discovered, complete and in perfect condition, the standard of the fortress of Przemysl. "A further search disclosed long colored stripes of material hidden away in the lining of the officers headdresses. These stripes proved to be parts of the regi- mental colors.
 Tt appears that on the eve of sur render of the fortress all the regimen tai colors were cut into strips, num- bered, and then handed over to the officers of the garrison. These officers on return from captivity, were to give back to the authorities the pieces of colors entrusted to them. so that 1t would be possible to remake the colors and in this manner give the regiments concerned the right of further exist ence."

GERMAN PAPERS EXPOSE
 FAXED WAR PICTURES

BERLIN. June 2.-Another case of alleged faked war pictures has been exposed by Ded Tag, an illustrated daily published by the LokalAnzeiger Company.
 The London Daily News in it's edi- tion of April printed a picture of a big crowd of men standing in line, each with an empty metal bowl in his hand. Above the picture was the in- scription: German worker feels the pinch." and below it the following explanation. "The above crowd lining up for rations is a familiar sight in Germany. It reveals one aspect of our naval power"
 Alongside this picture Der Tag re- produces it's original taken from its own issue of August 13 and bearing the inscription: How we treat in termed Russians and French; they are standing in line waiting for their food to be given out" The two pictures are identical in every respect.

Monsieur Coblence lost his arm in a railroad accident Little by little he became able to dress himself, make his toilet, lace his shoes, tie his cravat, peel fruit. do his own gardening and trim his own finger nails. He swims, rides a bicycle, plays the piano and has a license as a conductor of a motor-car.

BOBBY SHELDON'S
 PROFITS 80 CENTS

Bobby Sheldon has ceased operat ing his automobile stages to the coast until summer time, he states, but he feels that although he has not come out much ahead in financial way, he has. however, been well paid in an. other way for his work.
 To some of his friends a few days ago, Bobby explained his financial situation in a rather peculiar way. He declared that he had paid off all his help and debts and that after deduct ing them he found that he had bal ance of just 80 cents.
 But these 80 cents," he explained, "did not represent my net profits. In my accounts, made an entry just below the 80 cents balance, crediting myself with s5,OOOO. representing the value of being my own boss for the winter. So you see I am ahead just $5,0O0.S0 for my winters work.--Fair, banks Citizen.

FARMERS USING DRILLS
 IN SOWING SEEDS

BERLIN, June 2.--No detail Is too small to be overlooked by the govern ment in its measures to make the most of the food supply. A formal order of the Federal Council even pre- scribed the amount of oats that might be used in sowing this spring, setting it at about 10A bushels each hectare, which amounts roughly to 4 1.6 bushels an acre.
 An appeal has gone out to the farm CTS to use drills as much as possible in sowing. since a greater amount of seed than that prescribed is generally used in broadcasting, the system still employed by the greater majority of German farmers. Farmers who own drills are asked to lend them to their less fortunate neighbors.

CH|SANA OUTPUT s200,000 FOR
 THIS YEAR

Erie Bodin and Henry Stubbs are the first arrivals of the year from Chisana camp, having reached here last night in small boat via the river route, says the Fairbanks News-Miner. They left Chisana about the first of May. Coming down they met with lots of Ice trouble but got through without serious danger or difficulty, The water is reported very low for this season of the year.
 Bodin left here two years ago on the steamer Reliance during the stam- pede. He thinks that he will take a trip into the Tolovana to see if he can get hold of any ground or lays in there. Stubbs went out to Ester Creek this morning where he formerly lived.
 Bodin this morning said that he be- lieved Chisana would produce only about $2000O0 this year, as no new ground has been opened. He gave no credit whatever to the rumored strike on Dry Gulch. Prospects have been found there before this but when he left there, there was nothing to indicate that a strike had been made.
 Last year Hamshaw took out s275,- 900 from Bonanza, out of which he paid the sum of s9O,OOO for wages to his men, yet he got into financial diff faculties at that. He left Seattle for the Chisana to resume operations this season and should be in there by now.
 Sam Shucklin, the former Fair banks merchant, who took a stock of mems furnishings Into the new camp, Is in hard luck again. He reached Mccarthy too late to get his years supplies in before the breakup, and was compelled to leave over ton of it at Mccarthy to come in over the summer trail on packhorses if he takes it in.
 Charlie Range, who took out a lot of dust from Skookum last year ar rived from Seattle just a few days before the boys came down river.
 Carl Whitman, one of the locators of Snowshoe Gulch, is also back from Seattle where he spent the winter.
 Last winter Tommy Burns took out a dump on the upper end of Bonanza and John Hansen worked on the upper end of 5. Both are now clean ing up with good prospects of doing exceedingly well.
 The white tent city has appeared at the mouth of Bonanza Creek, which is now the center of the camps popu- lation. Chisana has about 200 people this spring and prospecting will be vigorously pushed in all directions.
 On Wilson Creek several holes were sunk by Bodin and his partner but they did not reach bedrock.

ESKIMO WILL ACE WILL bE
 MOVED

Carrying a sawmill and a shipment of lumber for a new Eskimo village to be established by the Alaska Bureau of Education at Noorvik on the Kobuk River in the Arctic, the four-mast schooner C.. s. Holmes, owned and operated in the Arctic trade by Capt Jock Backland, veteran navigator and sky pilot of the polar seas. is now on his way for the Far North.
 The bureau of education plans to pick up bodily the entire native community of Deering, Kotzebue Sound, and transfer 1t to Nooryik, at present merely a name. The Noorvik district offers the natives a plentitude of hunt ing, trapping and fishing and in addi- tion is we'll timbered. The timber will be cut into lumber for frame houses, the mill being turned over to the natives under the supervision of the bureau.
 The feat of transplanting an entire community is not unprecedented in the Far North, but 1t has rarely been attempted on so large a scale. Deering at present numbers more than 150I persons. The Holmes also carries north the engine for the operation of the sawmill and a shipment of $500, feet of dressed lumber for flooring and ceiling the homes to be erected in the new village. Other cargo for the Kobuk district includes the buldingI material for a government school.
 The Holmes altogether has more than 1000 tons of cargo. A large part of it consists of supplies for mission ary stations and government schools.
 The schooner will proceed direct to- St, Lawrence Island to discharge school and missionary supplies. Her points of call from then on follow: Sinuk, 25 miles northwest of Nome, to discharge school and missionary sup plies; Wales, to discharge school and missionary supplies; Shismareff, to discharge school supplies; Kotzebue, Notak, Selawik and Noorvik, school and missionary supplies; Kivaling, school and missionary supplies; Point Hope. store supplies; Icy Cape, school supplies; Wainwright and Point Bar row, school and missionary supplies.
 From Point Barrow the Holmes will return to the Kobuk River to load the pack of Captain Backland's trout cannery. the most northerly fish plant of this kind in the world. Besides the trout cannery, Captain Backland has a number of trading posts in the Arctic that will be visited by the schooner. The cannery is located in Hatham Inlet and while northbound the Holmes will discharge a heavy shipment of coal, gasoline and ma chinery for the plant, which has a capacity of close to 15,OOO cases.
