term of the court in the enforcement of these laws, and we most earnestly recommend that these laws must and shall be enforced in the future. We earnestly recommend that the Fed u officers and the City officers CO., operate in the enforcement of these laws.
 We. the grand jury, do condemn the negligence of the officials of the town of Ketchikan and more So the rolice force of said town for the existing conditions of drunkenness and lewdness occurring nightly on the streets of said town, more espec- ially on what is known as Mission ; rect; these acts occurring nightly tween native girls and white men re, disgiace to any civilized com
 unity.
 We recommend that the game
 nrdtn and the Marshal's office be
 'i4ent in enforcing the laws against i'egal fishing by aliens and that for this purpose they infirm the legal authorities of all persons discovered violating the laws.
 We believe that it would be great tenefit to the country to exclude un-
 esirable aliens and we heartily CO npcrate with the Immigration Office in its efforts to the deportation of such undesirable aliens, and we earnestly recommend that the Immi- ssation Office will take steps to de- Ilrt all such persons as may be sub iaet to deportation.

you think their little hearts sent up
thanks to the loving Father, who had
reminded the MarSden children not to
forget his little woods people?
And as the children raced across the

by great sleigh load of people coming
from the railroad station.
Merry Christmasv' they called
"Merry Christmas!" And the sleigh
stopped and took them all in, for they

L was the day before Christmas,
and 1t had been showing all the
morning
The Marsden children sat
around the living room fire and sang
Christmas carols and talked about the
millions of people who were sending
gifts to loved ones. just as the wise
men brought gifts to the Christ Child
under the Christmas stars,
Suddenly they noticed that Clarice
was very thoughtful.
What Is the matter. Sis?'' asked
Gordon, the oldest boy.
II am thinking Of our dear woods
people and how the snow has covered
their food so that they may starve to
death while we are having happy
Christmas" said Clarice.
Gordon whistled in dismay. oh, |
never thought Of them" he said.
II don't want my gray squirrels 20
starVe to DEATH said Paul.
And Mr. Rabbit and his family"
added Mabel
''Or the sn0wbinls. saw n whole
flock yesterday" cried Gordon eagerly.
"Or my own dickey bird!" lisped Baby
Nan, pointing u fat finger at the ca
nary's cage in the window.
They all laughed and kissed little
Nan.
And what about you, Cousin Mar
ion?" they asked Of the little girl who
was visiting them.
I'm thinking about Mr.. Rabbit, too,
said Marion. Il was thinking 1t would
be nice If Santa Claus remembered
him.
Gordon got up and danced horn
pipe. Let's have Christmas tree for
the woods people" he shouted.
What racket there was as they all
rushed into the hall after caps and
cloaks and overshoes.
Clarice and Gordon disappeared NJ
the kitchen and were gone long THE.
When they came back they carried a
little basket.
Baby Nan was taken to her moth
er's room, and the merry youngsters
ran shouting across the snowy garden
to the path which led TO the woods.
How quiet the woods were when they
were In the shadow Of the pines and
hemlockS
Suddenly some twlgs cracked, and
a beautiful deer bounded lightly away
and disappeared among the trees.
He was hungry" said Gordon. See
how he has eaten the twigs from the
hemlocks."
All over the snow were the foot
prints of little animals-rabbits. SOUR
rels, even the trail of fox which
Gordon and Paul pointed out.
And threading In and out like pat
tern of lacework were the dainty foot
prints OF birds.
Poor little woods people,! sighed
Clarice I'm afraid the snow has Gov
cred all the seeds and pine cones
where shall we have the Christmas
tree asked Mabel, jumping up and
down with delight
"Herer cried Marion, pointing to a
small holly tree. See, 1t is already
trimmed with red berries!'
"Just the thing" said Gordon, open
ing his basket. Now youngsters, step
M and help yourselves to goodies to
put on the Christmas tree,
Here are nuts for the squirrels, bits
of suet for the blue jays and the snow
birds, some lettuce and carrots for Mr..
Rabbit and his family some canary
seed to scatter on this cloth and apples

The government small arms fac
tories have a maximum productive
power of $500 rifles a day and a pri-
vate concern at New Haven and lion
of 1000 day, or in all a million q
year.
It takes three months to make ma

or howitzer.
American munition plants can turn
out 100000 rife cartridges a week.
In fact, they are doing it. The war
department has 18O,000,000 cartridges
on hand.
To make smokeless powder takes
from thirty days to five months, &C.
cording to the size of the grains. The
largest grains are an inch and
a half by an inch, used in big guns.
Drying the powder is what delays the
manufacture.
1t takes three months to make a
shrapnel shell. The task is in the
manufacture of the fuse, which re-
quires expert workmanship.
It takes six months to make tor
pedo, the submarines weapon, and
the cost is $500. The projectiles
must be tested with great care.
Submarine mines are easily and
quickly made.

Ancient Nations Recognized What Il
Meant to Be Supreme on
the Ocean.

The Phoenicians we're the FIRST to
make long voyages and the FIRST to
arm their vessels for war. They read
lily availed themselves Of the ad-
vantages Of a marine and thereby soon
secured an extensive commerce. In
time they assumed the empire OF the
sea. sovereignty they long continued
to enjoy, during which time they be-
came tyrants of the sea and exercised
piracy. They were the first sea pirates
known to history.
After the Phoenicians, the Aeginetans
and then the Cretans assumed domin-
ion Of the sea during various epochs,
but 1t remained for the inhabitants Of
the island Of Rhodes to create, digest
and promulgate the first system Of
maritime laws of which we have any
authentic knowledge So great was
the success they attained, their code
has always been referred to as the
cradle Of maritime law" Neverthe-
less, as far back as the reign of King
Hammurabi, who was a contemporary
~
we find in the code of Hammurabi nu.
merous sections which fix the obliga.
tions arising under contracts for boat
building, hire or charter of vessels,
transportation of goods for hire, col
lisions, ETC., and the principles there
laid down are, in many instances, rec
ognized at the present time as the rule
of decision.
The Persians, and then the Greeks
in turn, succeeded the Rhodians as
masters of the sea. These two coun-
tries maintained large fleets Of war
vessels, called by the ancients, as a
class, vessels of force" as distin-
guished from their merchantmen or
ships Of burthen." The great naval
battle Of Salamis, fought by these
countries, in which it is said over fif-
teen hundred vessels took part, fol-
lowed by that of Plataea and Mycale,
demonstrated to the Greeks, with the
success of their arms, the immeasur.
able value of sea power They lost no
time. and spared no efforts In the crea-
ton OF still greater navy, and adopt
ed measures they deemed judicious in
furthering the interests of their mer-
chant marine. Among other things
they established a special Jurisdiction

actions.

Provisions for Army Uniform Cloth
In Case Of War-Searehins for
Good Domestic Dye.

One OF the difficulties to be met in
brown for cloth for the army is the
shortage of black or brown sheep, says
the Army and Navy Journal. In the
experiments conducted in the quarter
master corps under the direction OF
Brig, Gen. Henry G. Sharpe it has de-
of brown or black wool for the cloth
under consideration. A less proper
ton of dark wool would produce too
light color of cloth and would not
meet the requirements Of the army.
In peace time, with the present
strength of the regular army, there
will be no shortage of black wool, but
in the event of war it would be neces-
sary to use dyes in producing the
cloth for the uniform of a large army.
To provide for this contingency, Gen.
eral Sharpe is now conducting inves-
legations to determine whether a do
mestic dye can be secured for coloring
cloth. Unless this can be done the
position of the war department will
not be improved by adopting the new
cloth.
The European war has called atten-
rtion of the war department to the fact
that the present cloth uniforms can
not be produced without the use of
German dye.stuffs. This fact is re-
sponsible for the effort that is now be-
ing made to secure a cloth that
can be produced without the importa-
tion of any foreign material. Not I'M
It'll the cloth can be found which can
ibe manufactured without the use of
such material will there be any change
In the uniform of the army.
