The AiredaIe

What is it, a doormat OF a mop?
Neither, Edna, this is Mitz, the aris-
tOcratic frOuse. The canine with the
arctic nose and the whiskbToom coat
of fur. The airedale is a very dainty
dog, light on his feet like the usher
at the ball park. When he gallOps
through the paTlOr the piano is the
only thing left standing.
Society people like the aiTedale be-
cause it makes such a fool of itself.
(There must be something in that
old strip of chatter, Birds of a feath-
er flock side by each.')
The under part Of an airedale's
chin makes Niagara Falls look like
the Sahara desert The airedale isn't
particular what he eats. Anything
suits him.
Airedales are very fond of children.
Get one for the baby.

"The Snowbfrd" is one OF the
strongest photo-dramas that Metro
has offered this season. Aside from q
strong story, the scenes are laid in
an unusually picturesque locality,
that of the Hudson Bay district OF Can
ada, which has afforded opportunity
for really wonderful photography.
Miss Taliaferro has a role that calls
for the fullest display CT rare versa
tility. She is first seen as a society
girl with not single worry in the
world. Then her father meets with
reverses in Wall street, and becomes
involved in a complication which
promises to result in his imprison-
ment. Miss Taliaferro goes to his
rescue, and in attempting to clear his
name in timber deal in the Canad-
ian Northland, she is obliged to essay
the role of boy. This is the first
time that this charming young act
ress has been seen in the part of
boy. and a delightful and vivacious
youngster she makes.
During the course of the action.
Miss Taliaferro learns to master and
drive a dog team hitched to a sled.
which she pilots over a mountain trail
to lone cabin perched high I'D in
the hills. The story also serves to
introduce many interesting scenes of
life in one OF The most picturesque To-
Gales in the frozen north.-Advertise-

CHICAGO, July 12.-Even the pro

meeting which starts at Hawthorne
Saturday, according to word passed

criticism, the chances for Chicago

perhaps the betters can edge in then.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF
 THEOFIELD EERAERTS

ANCHORAGE, Sept. II. - The death of Theofeld Eeraerts, an Eagle river rancher, occurred at the govern ment hospital yesterday afternoon at 4:4O o'clock, and his brothers living at Billings, Montana, have been nOtifeG.
 The death was the direct result of an accidental shooting and from the meagre reports gathered it seems that Eeraerts was hunting and in going through the heavy brush, in the vicin- ity of his ranch, the shot gun that he was carrying went off accidentally, the shot taking effect in his left side just above the hip. He was imedi- ately rushed toAnchorage on special train, but the wound resulted fatally and the body is under the care of the Wood Undertaking company on F street.-Ex.

FAIRBANKS PAPER INTERVIEWS EDES
 ABOUT RAILWAY
(Fairbanks News-NIi6er)

When, in your opinion, will the first through train run between Sew ard and Fairbanks 9" was put Co w.. C. Edes, chairman of the Alaskan En- gineering Commission. when he was seen this morning by a representative of the News-NJiuer. And the reply of the railroad builder was that 1t would be about the latter part of 1919.
 "Of course" continued NIr. Edes. "I don't want to state definitely that that will be the time, for a good many things are liable to arise in the mean time. which would upset all plans. don't think, however that we will have any dim;culty in getting our app propriations for the work. and as everything is running smoothly now. both here and at the coast. ! see no reason why the trains should not be- running by that time"
 Nineteen hundred and nineteen is a year later than had been figured by  many people of the interior, but even one extra year will matter little as long as 1t is coming
 In the near future, or before the end of che season. the railroad will be into the heart O, the coal fields.
 Asked how the work would progress this year from Matauuska Junction, towards Fairbanks. lIr. Edes replied that jt was probable that steel would be laid for a distance of fifteen miles from the point where che road cuts off to the coal fields.
 Continuing. toward Broad Pass. there will be quite 8 big stretch of the line that will be cleared anj grad ed, ready for the laying of che rails next spring. Next spring the work of laying the rails toward Broad Pass will continue and be pushed with aU possible vigor.

FAMOUS GERMAN COFFEE HOUSES THREATENED;
 THERE'S \ REASON

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 9.-.AIthough it is not admitted in Germany Ne famous old German coffee houses, the popular resort of the masses, is about to go out of business until after the war.
 There's a reason.
 Germany is about out of coffee.
 For the last two years the Germans have used reserve supplies of coffee stored in Hamburg and Bremen. Ant werp's supply augmented this when t fell to the Germans in 1914. Thero since has been a liCIe from Holland and Scandinavia.
 Today, however, the British have so effectively stopped shipments to ports reshipping to Germany that none is available therefrom. Germany Is brewing the last of her precious bcr- ries.
 Before the war Germany imported about 55 million dollars worth of cof- fee a year, mostly from Brazil and Guatemala.
