DRAFTING IN RUSSIA.
Calls Five Million More Men to coIors
HAS Nine Million in Reserve.

Or. Phillip Newton of Washington
D. c., who returned recently wearing
the uniform of a brigadier general In
the Russian army and the Cross OF
ST. Anne, which was bestowed upon
him by the car, said that Russia
had Just drafted 100000 men for war
service and had 100000 more in re-
serve ready to be called up. The doc
tor said he went to Russia at the be-
ginning of the war to offer his services
and was attached to the forty second
regiment of the sixth army corps and
took part in the retreat from Warsaw.
I'VE started with $4,000 officers and
men and only $500 survived the march.
All the rest were either killed. wounded
or captured" he said. with the s.
100000 troops recently drafted Russia
has put altogether 100000 men into
the field and has an equal number of
good troops in reserve. She is receiv-
ing plenty of ammunition from Eng
land, France, United States and Japan.
Russia is getting supply of big
guns from Japan, and the irony of it
is that she is sending to Moscow over
the trans Siberian railway the Krupp
guns that were originally shipped from
Hamburg to Japan. The outlook for
Russia was better when l left Petro-
grad three weeks ago than it has been
during the war"

THE SCOTCH. BONNET.
Montana Mine Said to Have Been Bon
ded BY the Days.

Information was received last week
that the Scotch Bonnet, a copper pro-
perty at Cook City, Montana, had been
bonded by John H. Wourms, whose in
innate association with the Days leads
naturally to the belief that he is act
Ing for them in the deal. Cook City
Is near the Yellowstone park and the
successful operation of the mine in
wolves the building of railroad some
so miles. 1t is also stated that Mr.
Wourms is negotiating for other pro-
perties in that section. 1t is under
stood this is a move to secure copper
mines in the interest of the North
port smelter. And in this connection
it is also reported that the U. S. Steel
corporation is back of the Days in the
smelling enterprise, which is given as
the explanation of the location of the
refinery for the product of the North
port smelter at Pittsburg Another
report is that as soon as the North
port smelter is in full swing it will be
necessary to have metal selling office
in the east, and that Harry l.. Day

HATS FROM JACK RABBIT FUR.
Experiments May Turn an Idaho Pest
Into a Valuable Asset.

At the request of Representative
Sinnott of oregon, hat factory in
Pennsylvania is conducting expert
ments to determine whether or not
the fur of western jack rabbits can be
utilized in the manufacture of derby
and other styles of felt hats. If the
experiments are successful, the Ore
gon congressman is confident there
can readily be built up an American
maker of jack rabbit fur, and once
the market is established he feels
there will be a double incentive for
killing one of the worst pests with
which the western farmer has to deal.
In conversation with a Pennsylvania
congressman some time ago Mr.. Sin
mott learned that rabbit fur is import
ed from Germany for the manufacture
of felt and because of the war, this
supply has been cut off. The idea oc-
Cured to him that if German rabbit
fur is suitable for manufacturing felt,
the lur Oh tne jack fdoolt IHlSnt DC
equally valuable, and if So there will
be no future need for going to Ger
many for this raw material.
Through this congressman, Mr.. Sin
mott arranged to have the Pennsyl-
vanian hat factory experiment with
rabbit fur, and he then sent to Oregon
and had a large box of jack rabbit
skins forwarded to him. These skins
have been sent on to the Pennsylvania
factory, and are now being worked UP
to determine their suitability for hat
manufacture. When the tests are COM
the result of the experiments.

GRANDMA's CHRISTMAS GIFT.
Sends Comfort to Marine Who Chan
ced to Get in the Tropics.

Fearing that the Government did moi
provide sufficiently warm clothing for
her favorite grandson serving in the
United States marine corps, an elder
ly lady today bought a feecy, hand
worked comfortable to the local re-
cruiting station of the sea soldiers in
Rochester and requested Sergeant
George S. Fynmore to forward it to
him.
Poor Fred may be shaking and
shivering with cold JUS: like the Sol
dicrs in Europe she told Fynmore,
and this comfortable will be just tie
thing. Yum send it TO him, won't
y,u?"
Sergeant Fynmora assured the old
grandmother that It would be a priv
lege and a pleasure to do so. But
when he forwarded the package to
Port Au-Prince, Haiti, where the
grandson is now serving, he enclosed
a note explaining that the old lady had
worked hard in an endeavor to have
the comfortable finished in time to
come as a Christmas present and that
he didn't have the heart to disillusion
her about the need for such things in
Haiti.
But" he added in the note, just by
way of encouragement sometime
when you're serving in Alaska I'll get
her to send you cake of ice.'

WHAT A MILLION MEANS

one of these words and analyze it in
an attempt to get at what it actually
means-not automatically but from
the human point of view.
Human Aspect of a Million.
In the first place it is doubtful If
any of us can really form an idea OF
what million is. We use the word.
and it has for us a hazy connotat1on
of immense numbers, but that is all.
We do not grasp the actual and def
mite significance of the word. For in
stance, if a man were asked how many
words he knew he would be as likely
as not to reply: ooh, about a million"
AS a matter of fact there are scarcely
mans vocabulary No, we are not rash
enough to guess how many there are
in a woman's. But in Shakespeare's
there are hardly more than 10000 and
in the latest dictionaries there are at
most 100000, and this includes not on
ly archaic, scientific and other unusu-
al words, but sometimes the score or
more of derivatives from a single root.
So we see that the ordinary man has
little idea of how many million &C
tually is. The reader can test this
very easily. Let him ask friend to
reply offhand without doing any men
tai arithmetic to this question: IF
family put aside dollar a day since
the year one, how much would this
sum, without interest, amount to
now?" The answer probably will be
some huge figure, but the multiplied
ton of 1915 by 1865 gives exactly $685.
975 just a trifle over two-thirds of a
million. Over 1900 years is long time
to save, yet if family had saved a
dollar day for that period it would
not have a sum equal to 1880 of the
war loan that the allies floated here,
and yet there is surprise that this is
so small. 1t is the ciphers that work
! the mischief.
In the same way we heard without
any apparent amazement that the sun
is over 9O,0OOOOO miles from the earth,
vet we do this without stopping to
try to realize what a million miles Is.
! Can you imagine distance more than
40 times the circumference OF the
earth at the equator? That Is what
million miles is Ninety million miles
would be equivalent to travelling
around the earth 5000 times. If the
trip could be made in 40 days, which
10 imnossible at the equator, 400 years
would be required to the encircle the
globe so many times.
In Terms of Transportation.
On the other hand, to combine the
comparisons of distance and money,
we can see what the million dollars
would mean If applied to a question OF
TRANSFORMATION. At the usual railroad
rate of cents a mile, it would be pos
slble to travel 100000 miles with
that money, or more than half the
distance between this planet and the
sun. Steamship travel is cheaper, ano
for the same sum of money 1t would be
possible to travel the actual distance
between the earth and the sun. Les
II may be thought that there would DC
a scarcity of food on the voyage, Il
may be added that under the penny
lunch" system it would be possible t
provide with this million dollars the
lunches for more school children thar
there are in the entire civilized world
