MILLION MEN AVAILABLE
 FOR MILITARY IN '. s.

WASHINGTON: There are mill lion men in the United States who could respond to the colors in some form of military usefulness, if the call came.
 These are national guardsmen still of military age; ex-regular army men now in civil life; the majority of the Spanish War Veterans and men who have received training under au thorized army officers in universities. There are also young men drilled un- der military men in high and private schools, and ex-U. s. marines who have had land training.
 Officers of the U. s. Army admit this would be a highly convenient army nucleus in time of emergency, but the government doesn't know where any of these men are except the national guardsmen.
 Roughly estimated there are 50O,- 1000 national guardsmen and ex-na- |tional guardsmen; over 175,OOO army and navy alumni; between 180,00O and 100000 Spanish War Veterans and 75,0OO college cadets.
 War department figures show there are now S,705 officers and 120,693 enlisted men in the national guard. In the college last year there were |32,O0O who had drilled and in the last 10 years 39,OOO men have been graduated who had been trained two years. Figures for ten years behind that easily make up the estimated total of 75,000, army officers say. AS to- the regular army alumni, an average of 13,0O0 fails to re- enlist each year. The total for 1914 was 14,349. Even with the loss through deaths since discharge; incapacita- |tions, removal to other countries and old age, the figure for 20 years should be 175,OOO to 100000 men.
 Recent plans of enlistment in the war department call for three years with the colors and four in reserve. Before that, .-once a mans term of enlistment was up, the government gave no more attention.

WOULD CHANGE THE
 ALASKA MINING LAW

SEATTLE: Sumner S. Smith, mining inspector of Alaska, has ask ed Congress to repeal the federal min- ing law for the territory and to pass a new one that will fit the needs of the local conditions. The suggestion is embodied in Inspector Smiths re- port to the United States bureau of mines, which was made public at Washington today. Smith also asks that mine experiment station be es- tablished in Alaska, and that the fed eral mine inspector be given an ap- propriation for the equipment and rental of an office and for, field as- sistance.
 Under the present law, the federal mine inspector is allowed $30OO a year salary, but he is not allowed to employ any assistants. AS the terri tory which he is supposed to cover embraces an area of 5S9,00O square miles, on most of which there is no railroad, it is obviously impossible for him to give good service in all parts of his field. If the mine in- spector happened to be at Ketchikan in winter, and an accident happened at Nome or on the Koyukuk, it would be impossible for him to make an ex- animation to determine the cause of the accident until 8 or months had elapsed. The law pre-supposes that he will immediately investigate all mining accidents in the territory.
 Smith reports among other things that a number of applications to mine coal on ten-acre tracts have been re- ceived, and work on them las been started in each of the four judicial divisions.
 Among the notable developments reported from Alaska is the install lation of g new 500-ton concentrator at the Beatson mine at Latouche, and the first unit of 10000 crushing plant at Thane, several small quartz mills and dredges, and two new cya- hide plants. New discoveries of promising placer ground are report ed from the Tolovana river.-Seat- tie Times.

FATHER VAUGN SEES
 BLESSING IN THE WAR

LONDON: "Why does not God stop this war? If He were Almighty and all-loving He would have done so long ago." was 8 remark quoted by the Rev. Father Bernard Vaugn yesterday in opening his sermon be- fore a large congregation. He added that this was a sample of the blas- phemies sent to him by post. His an- swer was that God did not stop the war because being almighty, He could draw out of it, and being |all-loving, He did so.
 "Personallq," said Father Vaughn, q feel that it would take eternity to thank God for not having stopped this war as He might have done. If it had been deferred ten years my be- loved country would have been a Mongolian desert. Talk of Belgium, speak of Poland. of the Serbians, and the Armenians-that is child's play to what would have become of hated England. Our dear island home, with |its cathedrals, ministers and abbeys, would have been utterly destroyed. We should have had nothing left to us but our eyes to weep with. But God, being almighty and wise and loving spared us.
 "I have been asked this question:: Can you deny that Christianity has been proved by this war to be ghast- ly failure? I answer in the Socratic method by putting another question: What is Christianity? It is body of doctrine and code of morality mak- ing for the salvation of the peoples embracing it. Christianity has not failed because it has not been used"
 It was fashionable today with those who kept borrowing their phil osophy, theology, and methods of mentality from Prussia, he said, to say there was no such thing as sin, but in these matters England had been tyrannl1e. over by Germany and He thanked God that this war had come about, because He had made England turn from gold back again to Christ.
