MAN WILL
 TURN TO AGRICULTURE

When Charles A. Hopp turned over the keys of the Douglas Island News office to his successor, g. J. White. Friday night, he terminated almost |1S years of continuous newspaper service in the North, making him one of the pioneer newspaper publishers of Alaska, says the Juneau Empire.
 Mr. Hopp came north in the spring 2 of 1888, like hundreds of others, ex- pecting to remain only few months. He stopped first at Wrangell, where he helped to reorganize the Wrangell News. which paper he later became proprietor Of. On NovemberS, of the same year, in partnership with A. G.. Mcbride. he moved his plant to Doug las where the first issue of the Doug las Island News appeared November "A, 1898. Two years later MT. Hopp bought out his partners interest and for the past fifteen years has been sole owner and publisher.
 With his newspaper business dis posed Of, MT. Hopp, accompanied by his wife, daughter and mother, will leave during the next few weeks for the State of Washington, where he expects to try out some agricultural theories near Enumciaw.
 The Douglas Island News has been one of the best papers in Alaska from a typographical and local standpoint. MT. Hoppe has built up good busi- ness in Douglas, and his successor, who is a capable newspaper man, will keep the paper up to the same high standard.

VERDUN AND GETTYSBURG.

Minister of Finance Ribot, speak ing in the Chamber of Deputies on the financial and military situation, declared he could say, without any Il. fusion that the end of the war was in sight. This utterance is taken in France as indicating official opinion as to the significance of the battle of Verdun.
 From this is appears that the French ministry is inclined to regard that long continued battle as sort of second Gettysburg. Meade's army did not pursue the shattered and baf1ed Confederate troops. It simply stood it's ground. The results which follow ed the decisive stopping of the Con- federate advances at Gettysburg are familiar history. It was the begin ming of the end.
 Now the French lines around Ver- dun, while swaying back at certain points, have held in the main. There has been no breaking through and no gain of decisive importance as yet, as far as the reports have informed us. Will this supposed demonstration of the French ability to hold out against the best devised German at- tacks be followed by results as sig nificant as those which followed the American battle? Does Verdun re- present the high tide of the German offensive?-Ex.

Coffin Pasties.

Coffin Pasties.
 Mince pies now are generally round, but there was time when they were of a long. coffin shape and were. in fact, often referred to as ''coffin pas des." But this somewhat grewsome name and shape do not appear to have detracted from their popularity. Scogin, for instance. in the edition of his "Jests" published in 1926. is re ported to have said on his deathbed. Masters, tell you all that stand about mee. if I might live to cate Christ masse pye l care not if dye by and by after; for Christmasse pyes be good t"-London Chronicle.
 Why Mosquitoes Like Blood.
 The fact that mosquitoes so continu- ally harass rich blooded creatures is due to the fact that they cannot lay eggs without the albuminous food which Is thus obtained. In tropical countries the greatest enemy of the malaria bearing mosquito is a species of bat which Is protected from the in. sect's bite by it's strangely shaped hairs.
 The bat IS very swift of flight, and the mosquitoes. especially those which have already made supper of blood. are their ideal food.-St Louis Post Dispatch.

THE ROAD NOT TAKEN.

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood. A And sorry could not travel both And be one traveller; long stood And looked down one as far as 1 could To where 1t bent in the undergrowtn: TWEEN took the other. as just as fair, A And having perhaps the better claim Because 1t was grassy and wanted wear. Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same. A ND both that morning equally lay A In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, marked the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way I doubted if should ever come back. T SHALL be telling this with a sigh A Somewhere ages and ages hence; Two roads diverged in a wood and l. I took the one less travelled by,
 And that has made all the difference.

ON TEE COAST OF MAINE. ~ H. the lonesome reach of the bar ren beach
 That stretches mile on mile; O The wild waves sigh as night
 falls nign And swifter still the pile. In smother of spray on the sands they play
 And lash father white. Like an army mad in pale plumes clad They roll from out the night Like whirling snow the foam clouds blow From off each tossing crest, And they hurl away in streamers gay To mantle the oceans breast. Oh, the hollow roar as the waters pour And crash upon the sand! Like the muff1ed sob of some motley mob It throbs OCT the dreary land.

the resources of Idaho and make them
lift the tax burden and at the same
time supply funds for simplified ru-
raj credits system that will finance
the producers of his state and greatly
