THREE MEN ARE LOST
 NEAR CAPE OMANY

Three men were lost overheard dur ing a terrific storm, December 3, at 1O;15 p. m. while out fishing for hali- but some 30 miles west of Cape Omany near Sitka, off the halibut fishing schooner, Sumner" Capt. James J. Rolie.
 The boat arrived last evening from the west with a small load of halibut, and after taking on some oil at the oil station, proceeded to Prince Ru- pert today.
 Those lost were: Orvin JOhanson, Ira Atwood and Ole Haram. AL though every effort was made to pick the men up, the storm was so severe that many risked their lives in their attempts and finally had to abandon their search for the remains. Par ticulars in regard to the lost men could not be obtained this morning.
 The Sumner, it is said, belongs to Sunde & Evers of Seattle, the crew being out fishing for the frm.- Ketchikan Miner.

RIGGS TALKS ON THE
 RAILROAD WORK OF 1917

Following the receipt of the tele- gram telling of the request for the appropriation for railroad work, Thomas Riggs, Jr., member of the commission in charge of the work in the Interior, who is at Nenana now, was interview by representative of the News Miner as to the amount oi work that was expected to be ac- complished with this amount of money. He stated that the request for an appropriation was in accord ance with his estimate of funGs needed, and included money for the completion of the railroad track from the Nenana coal fields to Fair banks, exclusive of the bridge across the Panama river; included the money for the rolling stock necessary; in- cluded the money for the construc- tion of docks, warehouses and termin- al at Fairbanks and about $50,0O0 for work on the approaches to the bridge at Nenana.
 Mir. Riggs was very delighted to hear that the secretary placed the matter up to congress and he has confidence that there will not be Seri- ous opposition to the appropriation. The principal and most important thing, however, in his opinion, is that it should become available immedi- ately after the passage of the act or during the very early spring. Should the appropriation not become avail able until the first of the fiscal year in July, it would mean big delay in the completion of the road. - Fairbanks News-Miner.

GERMANY SENDS DELEGATES ALREADY
 BUT ALLIES EXPECTED 10 REJECT
SWEDEN ALSO ASKS PEACE

LONDON, Dec. 27-The Daily Telegraph this morn ng says it understands that Sweden has sent to the be gerent powers note asking for peace discussion that is identical to the note sent by Switzerland The German renv o the American note has been received too late to permit of the morning papers making comment on 1t but the Daily Mail comes out with big headline declaring that the German suggestions for peace are nothing but dodge and the Mail presages their rejection The Mail
 also says that if Wilson meant his peace proposal to force Germany to come out with clear avOwa Of its intentions Germany has evaded it and refuses to be explicit Some papers here have hned of the possibility of league of neutral nations to force the begerens to peace by the withholding of supplies but every public man who has been interviewed on this possibility declares such suggestion ridiculous In spite of all this the feeling prevails among st the people that the suggestions for peace conference have developed situation from which peace may possibly come sooner or later.

WHY PEOPLE HERE
 NEED NO GLASSES Lack of Sunshine in Winter Rests the Eyes, OptO-
 metriSt Says.

People living along the Alaska coast are able to do without eye glasses more than people in states like California, because of the smaller amount of sunshine in regions like this, and the cloudy weather.
 This is the interesting statement made by Dr. Simpson, the optometrist who is in Seward on professional duty.
 Dr. Simpson also says that one or two attacks of snowbIindness do not necessarily affect the eyesight per manently but repeated attacks would affect the retina.
 The doctor tells another most inter esting fact to the effect that the di- seaSeS brought to the Natives by the white man years ago are beginning to show their effect in he eyesight of the Indians. One particular dis ease, aided by consumption and ex- cessive fish diet has caused fifty per cent of the Natives to have defective vision.
 In addition to examining the eyes of the school children of Seward Dr. Simpson also examined their teeth as the condition of the teeth might have an effect on the eyesight, but he found the teeth of the Seward child ren we'll cared for.

MURDER0US ATTEMPTS ON LIFE OF UTAH GOVERN
 OR CONTINUE.

SALT LAKE, Dec. 27.-An anony- nous warning was received yesterday that it was planned to poison the food at a banquet to be attended last night at the NewhouSe hotel by Governor Spry and the state chemist has analysed the viandS. He has not yet made a report of the result of the lnalysis. A cordon of police sur 'ounded the hotel during the banquet to prevent bomb throwing. During the dinner the governor was unmis- takably nervous but he reiterated the belief that the l. w. w. is the most lawless element in Utah. It is now supposed that the bomb found day or two ago and the alleged attempt to poison are parts of the same plot to avenge the refusal of Spry to re- prieve Hillstrom.
