 was brought to Skagway in 1907, then went to Dawson and Fairbanks.
 For years past Juneau has brought the Whitehorse and Skagway teams to Juneau. Consider the small diff. ference in cost. to take team from Seattle. The brand of ball your fans will see. are some factors, to make the financial part of the ser ies a success. l played two success. ful series between Fairbanks and Dawson clubs. Whitehorse has gone down to Dawson several times.
 cite these events to prove that the people of the North go to see ball games Juneau would support a series with a Seattle team with record crowds.
 My proposition would be for ser les of five games, starting the first of July The Fourth comes on a Tuesday Juneau to play the ex- penses of thirteen players from Se- attle and return-including hotel ex- penses while in Juneau. The gate receipts to be divided 60 and 4O Juneau takes SO per cent of the 4th of July game. win or lose. winner takes SO per cent Of all other games.
 l know of the players in Juneau. I will take fast high school players if land the series-no old time phenomo or ex-leaguers. I will fur nish any references or guarantee you desire.
 I am a member of the Seattle Fire Department, and the trip will be merely for pleasure and vacation. If the trip looks possible to you please answer at once. It will give me plenty of time to play practice games here in June and find some concern to outfit the team and name 1t for advertising purposes. am quite sure you can arrange good steamer rates.
 Trusting to receive a favorable reply.

 SEATTLE. Wash. - There is no such matrimonial market in the country as there is today in Alaska, Publicity is being given the situa- ton by an army officers wife from Fort Liscum. who. writing in a West ern paper, decries the fact that so many of the best men of the coun- try are living in bachelorhood in the Territory.
 q never saw such an active mat. rimonial market" she writes, "as there Is In Alaska. And cannot say too positively that the Alaska men are the equal of any in the world. They have to be fine men physically and morally to overcome the hardships of the new and wild country. O
 "The new railroad camp built by the government at Anchorage Is made up of young men. True. they are of all nationalities, but there are hundreds of fine, strong Ameri- can young fellows who will decide to make Alaska their future home.
 'The busy mining city and capital of the Territory, Juneau. possesses more single men than married and there is also the same scarcity of young women. Wrangell, skagway. Seward and Valdez are other coast towns whose population consists very largely of young fellows"

Soho, London District
Much Changed by War

London, Sept. IS. - Changed in
many ways is London since the war
began, but nowhere is the transfor-
nation more marked than in the cos
mopolitan district called Soho, in the
West End, within a stones throw of
Piccadilly Circus. Soho is not the
hustling, merry place of prewar days.
The great conflict has made it quiet,
almost lifeless, for Frenchmen, Bel
gians, Italians. Germans and Austrians
who had their home in Soho have
gone.
The change is even more pronounc-
ed in Charlotte street. The German
chemists, German laundries, German
restaurants, German clubs and Ger
man paper shops have gone. There
was even a Christliches Kellherheim
Ga home for Christian waiters). 1t is
closed now: there are no German
walters. German books have been
moved from the booksellers windows;
German signs have disappeared and
certain shopkeepers are at pains to
announce that they are French or
Belgian firms.
The Belgians have lost their country
for the moment, but they have taken
their revenge in Charlotte street.
There is no gainsaying their victory
there. Instead of the cafes and res
taurants with German signs there are
establishments named after Belgian
towns. And in them may be seen
Belgian soldiers on leave drinking
coffee

Chinese Rebels Exterminate
Entire Colony Of Lepers

Canton, China, Sept. is (Corres-
pondence of The Associated Press) -
Julius A. Kempf. a member or the
American Reformed Presbyterian
Church Mission at TAX Hing, on the
West River in Shantung Province,
has advised the American consulate
here of the complete exterminaton
of a leper colony near that mission
by recent revolutionary soldiers, and
sought the assistance of the consul in
preventing a recurrence OF such par
barity.
The leper colony consisted OF thir-
teen unfortunates who made their
home on a houseboat on the west
River near a temple in which the
soldiers were quartered. Without
warning the soldiers fired upon the
houseboat, killing ten of the lepers.
Two members of the colony jumped
into the river and started for the op-
posite shore, but it is not known
whether they escaped death. One lep-
er escaped into the hills. The SOL
diers then burned the houseboat.
Mr.. Kempf and his associates had
been assisting the leper colony for
some time, supplying the sufferers
with food and endeavoring to better
their condition.
1t is not uncommon for 1eper COL
onies to be exterminated in China
either by the military or civilians who
resent having the unfortunates near
them. In many cases the lepers pro-
woke the attacks by begging insist
emily and threatening to touch per-
sons who refuse to give them aims.

PLANT WHEAT
LATESAY EXPERTS
Damage From Hessian Fly
Will Be Lessened Thereby
! They Now Contend


Warning that wheat should be
planted as late as possible to avoid
the Hessian fly is given by the State
Department of Agriculture.
In its bulletin the department says:
The season for planting wheat is
now at hand, and the chief feature in
avoiding destruction by the Fall brood
of the Hessian fly lies in not planting
too early.
Over the greater part of Pennsyl
vania wheat should not be planted be-
fore the last week Of September, and
to be sure of avoiding the Hessian
fly 1t is best to delay the planting in
all parts of the State until the latter
part Of this moth. The Hessian fly
has been very destructive throughout
Pennsylvania and farmers have
learned the importance of taking pre-
cautionary measures toward prevent
ing an increase. Volunteer grain
should be plowed down by the end of
this month. Those who are wise
enough to have trap strip across the
field in order to catch the eggs of the
Hessian fly can turn this down by the
last of September, and drill 1t to
wheat for their regular crop.
Seeding before the middle of Septem-
Der is almost sure to be infested with
the fly, and carry this pest over the
winter for its Spring brood, which is
the one that causes the wheat straws
to break and fall before harvest time.
There is no means of preventing the
destruction by the Spring brood of the
HeSSian fly. No agricultural practlce,
no fertilizing and no insecticide has
yet been able to check it or reduce 1t.
The best recommendation that can be
given for preventing the ravages OF
this pest, which has destroyed hun
dreds of thousands of dollars in Penn
sylvania, Is the one point Of late Fall
seeding. This, of course, does not
mean that the seed bed should be pre-
pared late The seed bed should be
prepared by early plowing and abund-
ant narrowing, so that 1t is In a goou
state of cultivation to receive and re
tain moisture and keep the plants
growing vigorously.
Throughout the northern part or
Pennsylvania. and, in fact. extending
southwark to the center or the state,
there is to be found very serious pest
of the apples, especially of the sum
mer apples and sweet varieties, whlch
bores through the pulp of the trult
in winding tunnels, and is, therefore,
called the Railroad worm or Apple
Maggot. It is the larva of q fly with
spotted wings which flies around the
trees in the early part or the sum
mer, and lays its eggs on the fruit:
Shortly before the fruit is nan
grown this pest could be destroyed by
spraying with a sweetened arseniea,
spray upon which the adult or winged
fly would feed, but after the larVa en-
ters the fruit and commences to feed
in II, there is no remedy. The thing 70
do then is to be sure and gather and
destroy the fallen fruit.
