 OF HER OWN

GENEVA, Switzerland, May 20. - From Brescia the Swiss Alpine troops in the Stelvio Pass have noticed a slim Italian girl. aged about IS, armed with a rifle, climbing the snow covered paths almost daily up to the Austrian frontier and spending most of the day there. One of the Swiss soldiers in quired what she was doing. The Ital- ian girl replied fiercely: They have killed my two brothers and my fiancee and I am taking my revenge. I think have killed four Austrians, but that is not enough. I shall continue shoot ing until am killed myself" The Swiss patrol saw the girl with her rifle strapped to the shoulder disap- pear down the snow covered path to- wards the valley.

COOD TIMES ARE COMING, SAYS
 BLUM

Sam Blum, banker and merchant, of Cordova and Valdez, was a passenger on the steamship Alameda, en route from Seattle to Valdez, where he ex- poets to start the work on the rebuild ing of his stores burned last year. He will return to Cordova next week.
 Blum comes north enthusiastic over the outlook of this section of the country for the coming year. He asserts that Cordova has passed through it's period of depression. and that the future holds nothing but the brightest prospects, for this city.
 In the states, Blum says, the east and middle west are enjoying unex- ampled prosperity. This wave of good times, he says, is rapidly coming to the west. where the only obstacle to boom at the present time Is the lack of ships to carry the lumber from the mills of the Pacific North west to foreign markets.
 For the past several years. he says, the mills have had but very little business, and hard times resulted. Now that orders are in for unlimited supplies. of lumber, vessels cannot be had to carry the products. Enough tonnage is found, however, to cause marked revival in business, which, he says, will increase rapidly.

 |NTERNED

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, May 20. A recent census of the belligerent troops that have crossed the Dutch frontiers to date and are now interned in this country accounts for 27,S86 Belgians, including $50 officers; 1889 Britishers, including 54 officers; IA Germans, including eight officers three Frenchmen, all officers. Sev' eral thousand of the men at present are working and living as ordinary civilians in various parts of Holland while the others are accommodated at internment camps. All the 54 British officers are out on parole, in accord ance with the permission given by the British government, and they enjoy full freedom within the boundaries ot the country. Most of them live at The Hague or at the seaside resorts close by.
 The men of the British naval re- serve interned at Gronningen have turned actors. No less than four dis tinct theatrical companies from the camp have toured the country, anus ing big audiences of Dutch people with their droll English humor, the pro ceeds going to flood relief and other charitable funds.
 The actual cost to Holland of main tenance of the internment camps tC date has been nearly $7.O0O.OO0 but this money will be repaid by the vari ous governments concerned when the general settling up comes at the enc ; of the war.

ITALIAN MEDICINES WERE
 BADLY FALsIFIEO

NISH Serbia, May 20. - Huge sup plies of medicines furnished the Serbs long ago by the Italians, and found here by the Bulgarians recently. have on examination, been declared to be badly falsified-so badly as to be ab. solutely worthless as medicines. Five hundred quinine tablets, for instance proved to contain no trace of quinine other medicines supposed to con tain various ingredients were found to possess little more than magnesia and chalk; disinfectant tablets, labelled as containing specific quantities of certain chemicals, proved to have only a small percentage of the labelled dis infectants.
 Bulgarian doctors, i1 condemning the entire lot of medicine as having little if any value, have forbidden their use by the Bulgars.

 About $1.50O,OOO.O 900 worth of toP Pd has to be brought to these shor les every year. Tn normal times, "ilh the help of neutral shipping, the Brs ish mercantile marine can just abOt- manage it. But not so now. Int underwriters view Is that the odle against. making a safe passage ads more than ten times as great as brs fore the war; and, with the increae- of enemy submarines. so the odds se crease, neutral shipping becomes mon and more shy of entering Britire waters, and food becomes scarcer ash dearer. ld
 Estimates of the 1916 crop in foreii
 countries are not encouraging, and tkn question is raised as to whether the foreigner is in a position to supply the demands here even if conditions weae normal The following shows the dre crease in wheat land estimated by tie International Agricultural Institute for 1916: Canada 14.9 per eene. United States 11.9 per cent, ant, France S.6 per cent. In other could tries the decrease is said to be in tih- same proportion. N~
 Although every effort has been made to remedy the situation by gig- ing up all available land to crop raih- ing, the British board of agriculture has been hampered by lack of labor. True, thousands of women have r e- placed men called to the colors, but the board finds that they are not suss~ ficient to utilize the land to the full.

DOUGLAS, May Is. - Dr'ilers un- der contract continue their operations in the city limits of Douglas on min ing property under bond, and people are still speculating as to the com pany behind them.
 The guesses range all the way from the Guggenheims to other large min ing combinations.
 One fact is apparent, and that is that some company is mighty active on properties along both sides of Gas tineau channel, and men are at work in a number of places, employed by local agents who are not advertising their business from the house-tops. Excellent progress is being made by the drillers on this side ot the chan nel.-Juneau Dispatch.

JAPAN GRABBING COTTON
 CLOTH INDUSTRY

TOXIC, May 20. - The demand for Japanese cotton of various kinds Is steadily increasing in China, India and Russia, where stocks of European goods are beginning to run short on account of the continuation of the war. Before the war Japan received from England a supply of cotton cloth of superior quality, but she is now sup plying England with large quantities of this material. Pessimistic views are, however. expressed in some quar- ters in Japan as to the future of the cotton cloth trade because the manu- lecturers are experiencing consider, able difficulty in obtaining the neces- sary supply of dyes. stocks of which are fast diminishing. Japan is now trying to manufacture her own dyes.

CHINESE LAB l B FINDS FAVOR
 IN FRANCE

PARIS, May 20 The experiment made in France with Chinese labor to replace men withdrawn from fac tory and farm work by the war has been so helpful from an economic point of view as to incite an extension of the experiment. The senate army committee has reported favorably upon a proposition to employ labor from Frances Chinese colonies of Annam. Cochin-China and Tonkin, in all industries working for the gov ernment, and in the fields wherever farm help is needed Fifty thousand Annamites altogether are either at work in France or waiting in French ports to be sent to destination, or on the way.
 The senate committee proposes to bring 100000 more Chinese. The North African colony of Algeria, and the protectorates of Tunis anG Mo rocco, as it is pointed out by Henry Berenger, a leading member of the army committee, are able to furnish 100,000 Berberes and Kabylie work men. while 30,000 at least could be drawn from Madagascar. With the 2S0,000 colonial soldiers incorporated in the French army since August, 1914. these 2S0,OOO workmen would bring up to 560,000 the number of Chi nese, Arabs. Berberes and Kabylies brought to France by the war.
 The social consequences of this heavy importation of Chinese labor have not apparently preoccupiet either the members of the committee of the army that has been studying the question or the general public The 5O,O0O Chinese, whose utilization is already provided for, come to France under a contract for three years, which stipulates that after the war is over these Oriental workmen may be employed in any other coloniel possession outside of France. This is the only features of the experiment suggesting apprehension that, after the war is over, and the necessity for the substitution of imported labor has passed. social question may arise requiring the deportation of the co loniaf labor.
 In order to facilitate the execution of their work by the Annamite labor special Franco-Chinese school is be ing founded under the direction oi Monsieur Aualard, professor in the faculty of letters at the Sorbonne, on plans furnished by Messrs. T'asi Yum Pei, former minister of public instruc- ton in Annam, and Ii Yu Ying. an engineer from Annam, who nave chosen a score of Annamites from the contingent already arrived to serve as interpreters and instructors.
 The school has been established in the Rue Bonaparte in Paris, and since the beginning of the month of April the Chinese have been working hard at the learning of French, particular ly sufficient mathematics to keep the simplest accounts. Their progress is said to be prodigious, and 1t is thought that two months will suffice for the quickest pupils to acquire a sufficient knowledge of elementary French tc teach theif compatriots all they need to know.
