Modern Developments.

You can hardly contemplate the bonn
bardment OF the DardaneIIes without
conjuring up the myth and legend and
history that have clustered since time
began about this narrow waterway
that divides Europe from Asia. Al
ways it has been strategic point. Al

Of heroism and romance have had their
setting. Always it has been a place to
stir the imagination. The DardaneIles.

ed such terrible fighting, such machines
Of destruction as modern warfare has
called into being. In his recent report
General Ian Hamilton, in command of
the allied land forces, says:
The Turks had turned the landing
places into death traps. There were
wire entanglements the whole length
Of the shore, with a supplementary
barbed wire network concealed beneath
the surface of the sea. Land mines
and sea mines were everywhere, and
machine guns, cunningly tucked away
in holes In the cliffs, were able TO con-
verge their fire on the wire entangle-
ments" 80
1t is over such obstacles as these that
the allies have been slowly making
their way attacking by land and sea.
1t is a wonderful attack that is being
conducted, but also a wonderful de-
tense. The path to Constantinople Is
surely strewn with thorns.

Alaska Insane Not Being Treated Right At Morningside Is Chars-

 The members of the legislature in. sist that the treatment accorded the insane patients is bad and that they are not treated as they should be and desire an investigation into the conditions at the asylum which is near Portland. The same memorial also asks congress to establish hos pital for Alaska insane in Alaska, as it is claimed they can be better and more cheaply attended to in the north.

RIGGS IN SEATTLE
 SOON COME NORTH
Says Hardly Expects To Be Able To
 Lack Ready Funds.

SEATTLE, April 27.-Thomas Riggs, a member of the Alaska en- gineering commission, arrived in this city yesterday from Washington and will leave for Anchorage on May 3rd.
 Tt is doubtful if the 75-mile branch from Anchorage to the Matanuska coal fields can be built this year" said MT. Riggs, "as the commission is greatly handicapped by the fact that the $2.000.0o0 appropriated by congress at it's last session is not available until June 30th, and the work the commission will do up to that time will be carried on with the half million dollars saved from the first appropriation of $1,000.000 for survey work.
 "The commission is anxious to reach the coal fields as soon as possi. ble and the efforts of the engineers will be directed towards the accom- plishment of that object"
 Commissioner Edes is still in the east and is expected to arrive in Se- attle on May 10th. He will remain in the city but a short time and will then go to Anchorage, where he will have charge of the headquarters of the commission.
 The applications for positions with the commission continue and the number increases in spite of the often published statement that this season the commission will employ but limited number of men and when the work is started it will be by the unit system of contracting and the men going north must seek employment from contractors or must themselves take contracts.
 The commercial bodies of the west are aiding the commission in trying to prevent rush of men to the north, especially men who have no funds and expect to secure work in order to live and who without work would become a burden on the communities of the north and force the govern ment to send them back to the states.
 MT. Riggs also stated that all po- sitions with the commission had been filled and 45,O00 applications were on file on the waiting list. The appli. cants are located in all parts of the United States. Many women are among the applicants for positions.
