duty to try the spirits. please

There is bur one way to try

Word OF God. II it is a man
who claim tn be teacher of the

Budapest, Jan. 18.-During a re-
cent debate in the Hungarian parlia-
ment, it was officially stated that
from the beginning of the war to
the first of November. 1915, 373
German doctors have been wounded,
SO have been killed on battlefelds,
707 have died from infectious dis
eases, and 215 have been taken pris-
oners. Among Austrian medical Of

but 971 have died OF infectious dis
ease, 101 have been killed while rem
dering medical assistance at the fir
ing line, and 331 have been taken

l 300 MINE AND QUARRY4
ACCIDENTS IN GREAT BRITAIN
DURING YEAR 1915

London, Jan. 1S.-iThere were
1900 separate mine and quarry ac-
cidents causing the loss of 1888
lives in Great Britain during the
year 1915, according to the report
Of the chief inspector of mines and
quarries, which has just been issued.
This represents a decrease of 532
fatalities over 1914. Besides those
killed there were 10000 persons in
jured in the mines and laid up for a
week or more, but this was a de-
crease of 1862 over 1914. The
number of persons employed in the
United Kingdom during 1916 was

GERMANS CONNECTED WITH
ITALY'S FINANCIAL AND IN
DUSTRIAL LIFE

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Jan. IS.
Germany has not made such thor
ough pacific penetration" of Italy's
financial and industrial markets as
is generally reported, according to
Francesca Nitti, the former Italian
minister of agriculture, who has con-
tributed an article on the subject to
the current number of the Dutch
journal for economies and geogra-
ply. Germany, he says. has only
placed capital amounting in the ag-
gregate to sS,000,0OO into Italian
enterprises. There are but few pure
ly German companies of Importance
in Italy, he says, but, on the other
hand, numerous Germans have ac-
lively participated in the working of
Italian companies without putting
any money into them.. Revenue sta
tistics indicate that last year the to-
tai of taxed foreign capital in Italy
was approximately s1OO.000.00O. of
which roughly $50. 100000 was
French and Belgian, s22, ,OOO,O 900
British and only $5,000,00O German.
more than half of which latter sum
is represented by two most promi-
nent German steamship lines.

RATS! THEY HOLD CON.
CROSSES BY NIGHT AND
GIVE CONCERTS BY DAY

London, jan 1S.-There Is a
plague of rats along the British and
French lines in Flanders and France.
A soldier describes the invasion as
worse than the Germans" in let
ter which adds:
Trenches, communications, fields,
woods, houses. cellars and barns are
choked with them. We have them
holding congresses at night in the
busiest roads and giving concerts by
day in the most crowded villages

traps devised by the soldiers for
catching the rats on a wholesale
scale.

NEW RAILWAY CONNECTING
PETR0GRAD WITH THE ARCTIC
PORT OF ALEXANDROvSK

Christiania, Norway, Jan. 18.-
When the new railway connecting
Petrograd with the Arctic port of
Alexandrovsk is finished, it will be
possible to transport goods from
Tromso in Norway to the Russian
capital in five days time. A new
steamship line has already been or
ganized to take advantage of the
new route, and it is expected that
the railway will be available for use
within month or SO.
Although much further north
than Archangel, on the White Sea,
which is already connected with
Petrograd by the narrow-guage rail-
way, the new port of Alexandrovsk
is free from ice all the year around,
by virtue of being situated on an in
let which feels the effect of the Gulf
Stream, while Archangel is closed to
navigation for six months of the
year.
One Of the difficulties of the Ar
changel route has been the tremen-
dous congestion of traffic, and this
will still be problem for some time
as the new railway from Alexan-
drovsk will at first be in a round
about way via Archangel. But a di-
rect line from Alexandrovsk to Pet
rograd is to be completed as soon as
possible.

that this army will number $4,000
men. This further contribution,
said Mr. Hughes, will bring the to-
tai number of men supplied by Aus
tralia by next June to something like
100000 men. 1t is to be understood
that the principle of voluntary en-
listment is to be adhered to. No re-
quest had been made to the Common
wealth by the Imperial government
for more men. The offer was quite
spontaneous. | have not the slight
est doubt that the necessary men
will be forthcoming. These will form
new units and are Independent of
the quota of $500 a month neces-
sary for reinforcements.
A governmental appeal will be
made by mail to every man in Aus
tralia within the military age group
based on the recent war census
that is single men from Is to "A
years.
