SUBJECT OF THE MIKADO CREATES SERIOUS TROUBLE
 IN NEGOTIATING A LOAN

According to the story told to Commis- trlous little Japanese resident of Iditarod, the business methods of Cling Ekeda, a fellow-countryman, do not tally very closey with the accepted commercial ethics in vogue in this country. As a result of mix up which occurred in the cabin of Wada on Saturday morning last Ekeda is nursing q rather bad cut inflicted with an ax in the hands of Wada, and the latter contributed S5 and costs on a charge of assault to which he pleaded guilty on Monday after noon last. A charge of assault with deadly weapon previously had been filed, but the principals being the only witnesses, the de fendant was allowed to plead to the less serious charge because of the fact that it would have been difficult to ascertain the facts on the graver charge had it come to trial
 Wada told the commissioner that some days ago Ekeda came to him to negotiate loan of $100 with which he desired to swing business deal. Wada declined to accommodate him, and Ekeda threatened him with all manner of ills among which were such trihes as raiding the hiding place where he kept his "poke and setting fire to his domicle while Wada slept. Wada alleges that the importunities of his fellow subject of the mikado were renewed on a fater occasion, as were also the threats On Saturday morning last, according to Wada, Ekeda appeared at his Wada's) cabin and renewed his demands for money. An alter cation ensued, which finally resulted in Wada seiring an ax and inHicting an ugly flesh wound in Ekeda's side Wada claimed that the latter attempted to assault him with a knife and he used the ax in self defense.
 The victim of the cutting was immedi atcly removed to the Crosby Baths and Dr. Auringer was summoned. The latter found that the wound was not of serious nature, and the patient is able to be around again.
 Ekeda's story was to the effect that he called on Wada for the purpose of effocting reconciliation. and he blamed the latter for the commencement of hostilities.

ILLUSTRATION OF THE ADAGE
 THAT IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

An illustration of the fact that it pays to advertise is given in the recent appointment to the position of superintendent of the Fairbanks schools of Miss Margaret heenan, who was the unanimous choice of the school board
 Miss Keenan, who for the past two years has been superintendent of the public schools at Sl;agwav, went to Fairbanks about the first of July with Mrs. Cornelia Templeton Hatcher the prohibition lecturer. Upon her arrival the News Miner published an inter view with her, in which she outlined her work in the coast city, and told of the re organization of the schools and the intro duction of a domestic science department which is now the pride of the town. The interview created such a favorable lmpres- sion on the parents of the school children of Fairbanks and upon the members ot the school board that, after. investigation of her work, she was rendered the position un- solicited.
 As Miss Keenan already had accepted the position at SkagWay, having been reelected at an increased salary, 1t was necessary tor her to secure her release there, which was given in the following telegram: Board accepts your resignation with reluctance Wish you all possible success"
 The Fairbanks position gives Miss hcenan wider scope for her talents besides in creased remuneration. She has had much exnerience in school work, having been for eight years superintendent of schools of Custer county Idaho and principal of the schools at the county seat For four years she was principal of the Nampa, Idaho, high school, with all enrolment of 26O pupils

epoch in the history of ecclesiastical

THE POPE AND PEACE

Notwithstanding that, we cannot

permitted to the father, whose sons
are engaged in fiery battles among
themselves, to cease warning them

'On the other hand, you know that
our repeated appeal for peace did
not obtain the desired effect. 1t had,
however, a profound echo in, and
permeated like balm, the heart of
the belligerent peoples and, more
over, in that of the peoples of the
entire world, and awoke a lively and
ardent desire to see the bloody con.
fiict settled as soon as possible.

to refrain from raising once more

THE project which we have Just

HIS HOLINESS MAKES ANOTHER
STRONG PLEA FOR PEACE IN
LENTEN PASTORAL - CALLS
PRESENT CONFLICT "THE SUI.
eide OF CIVILIZED EUROPE"

In special letter written for the
Lenten season, His Holiness Pope
Benedict XIV, makes another strong
plea for peace. The letter is ad-
dressed to His Eminence, Cardinal
Pompili, Vicar General, for distribu-
ton to the various churches in Rome.
The full text of the letter, as sent
out to the press of the world is as
follows:
"As the Universal Pastor of Souls
we could not, without failing in the
,uties inherent in the sublime mis-
sion of peace and love which God has
intrusted us with, remain Indifferent
to the direful conflict which is rend-
ing Europe and remain silent.
1T is for this reason that at the
beginning of our pontificate, in the
anguish which filled our heart in the
presence of such an awful spectacle,
we tried on several occasions through
our eXhortatiOns and counsels to
persuade the belligerent nations to
lay down their arms and adjust their
dissension in way compatible with
human dignity, by means of an
amicable entente.
eve threw ourselves, as it were,
between the belligerent peoples, as
a father between his sons in a
struggle. We conjured them, in the
name of that God Whose justice and
charity are infinite, to- renounce their
designs of mutual Sdestruction-to
make known, once for all, with clar-
ity, in a direct or indirect manner,
the desires of each of the parties,
taking into consideration, within the
limits of justice and possibility, the
aspirations of the peoples, accepting,
If need be, for the sake of equity and
| the common good of nations, the
obligatory and necessary sacrifices of
pride and particular interests.
Such was, and such remains, the
| only way of settling the monstrous
conflict according to tke rules OF jus.
tice and for arriving at peace which
would be advantageous, not alone to
one of the parties, but to all, and
which would be just and lasting.
Our paternal voice, unhappily,
has not been needed up to the pres
ent and the war continues furiously
with all it's horrors.
