Seward Alaska, March %50-Condi

ments in the Kuskokwim Hot Springs
county were described as terrible BY
William Lee and Joseph Mcdowell
who arrived at Iditarod from a TRIP
through the district, according to adj.
vices received from Iditarod.
At Sleimut village they found sc
natives living on dog salmon, which
they devoured like animals.
When the natives discovered the
white mems camp they sat around in
circle waiting for scraps of food
over which men. women and children
fought like dogs.
Lack of game this year, together
with a short salmon run, was given a
the cause of the famine.
Sleimut village is 80 miles above
Georgetown, on the Kuskokwinn river
and 800 miles from Seward.
Lee and Mcdowell also reported
that trading posts along the Kusko-
kwim were short of provisions. They

THE DOG
QUESTION

Within the next few weeks officials
in cities lin the commonwealth VIII
again turn their attention to the DOG
problem. While CANNES generally at
tract attention in warm weather:
there have been mad dog scares here
and there in Virginia during the past
winter, and several persons have
been taken to Richmond for treat
ment for dog bites. In some cases
It was shown that animals which
made attacks were suffering from
rabies.
The Richmond authorities have al
ready started out on their rounds at
ter unlicensed dogs, and the dog
catchers are taking any stray CANNES
found untagged in the streets.
A cotemporary suggestion that while
the habit of summarily killing unll.
ccnsed or unclaimed CANNES may
seem cruel and unjust, yet it becomes
a measure of public precaution to in
sure the safety of people generally,
The theory of the law is, that any
one who values a dog will willingly
pay the license tax for the privilege
of keeping the animal and securing
its safety. But the habit of keeping
dogs in cities becomes a nuisance In
many instances. The dogs that bay
The moon, worse still, those that make
night hideous with their bowling are

ture of the dog to bark or to howl.
and sometimes even to bite. Dog
fights in the streets are undesirable
and to be prevented if possible. AS
much as we love a good dog and adj
raire their intelligence and fidelity, we
recognize that the public safety and
comfort require that some limitation
shall be put upon their rights and prl-
vileges and that the canine shall be
restrained of some if its natural
rights.
Let those who have dogs pay the
license tax on them and then see
that they are kept confined sufficient

LENGTHY
!. SERMON

A large audience filled the Colonia!
Theatre in Norfolk Tuesday night to
hear Pastor Russell of the Brooklyn
IN. " Tabernacle, lecture on Al
ter the War-What?" the lecture be-
ing under the auspices OF the Nor
folk branch of the international Bible
Students Association.
DR.. Russell spoke for two hours
and forty minutes, dwelling at length
on what he regards as the proper IN
depreciation of the Bible. The Euro
mean war, he held, is not based on
principle, but is being waged for the
acquisition of territory and CONNER
cial prestige. Before Italy entered
the war. said he, as an Illustration
she debated whether Germany or the
Allies could assure her the greatest
amount of territory.
The war, he says, will be followed
bv revolution and anarchy in order to
afford the greatest possible contrast
with the peace and blessing OF Gods
kingdom, which is to follow this pc
Rod of great tribulation.
The average preacher assumes
risk if he delivers a forty-mlnute DIS
course. but Pastor Russell consumed
two hours and forty minutes, and not
witbstanding his elongated discours-
cs holds the attention of his audiences
Many people suppose that the
themes which the Brooklyn pastor
discourscs upon arc modern, and that
the literal Interpretation OF the
Bible is a new and modern doctrine.
The fact is he seldom says anything
that was not uttered Substantially
long before he was born. In 1888 an
Episcopal minister in Brooklyn the
CITY which is now me headquarters
of Pastor Russell, delivered twelve
addresses in which he brought oui
practically everything urged by Dr.
Russell.
Ministers of other denominations
have at times, for hundreds of years,
delivered sermons upon the same
TOPICS, while others have written
books upon similar lines. The late

GERMANS AGAIN
FAIL AT VERDUN.

While the allies, Tuesday, forced
the Germans back in the vicinity
of Verdun and the Germans, in turn,
forced their enemies back yesterday:
the fact remains that after five weeks
terrible drives and the slaughter Of
many thousands of Teutons and
French and English, the Kaiser's
purpose of taking Verdun is still
thwarted and conditions are virtually
unchanged. The zigzaging of each
others lines at times has resulted III
but little except to lead men to slaugh-
ter and to I'll Europe with woe.
While such sangl:nary scenes are
in evidence daily on the western front,
conditions in the eastern war zone arc
becoming more and more alarming.
The Russians having rccuperat5e
from their se.backs last year, arc
enjoying free hand in avenging
themselves or Turkey Hordes of
Muscovites are devastating the coun-
try of their enemies and visions OF
the taking Of Constantinople are ami
mating them.
Nearly forty years ago, after Rus
STA had vanquished Turkey, her arm
les were so close to coveted Stamboul
that they could hear the calls to
prayers of muczzins upon the mos
ques. Bnt conditions were different
then. England was watching the
movements of the Gear, and in order
to maintain the balance of power it
was not desirable to allow Constan-
tinople to fall into the hands Of the
MuscoviteS. William E. Gladstone
the English Premier, saved the
Moslcm capital by suggesting to the
Russians that they must not enter
the city on the Bosphorus. Undo;

no one to check the tread of the
northern bear, and there is every
reason to suppose that it will make
