DR.. Russell Continues
To Attract Crowds

At Market Square Church last night
an audience of large size listened with
intense eagerness to the sermon by
DR.. X. Nj. Russell on the text, He
that is wise winneth souls"
The preacher said Salvation is as
cribed both to God and man in the
scriptures. God has very important
and vital part to do. He is willing
and able to do it. But man has his
part. And the activities of men will
determine, at the last, Just how many
souls are won to heaven.
In making the appeal the congrega-
ton was lead to think of three classes
of people. The thoughtless were
urged to consider Gods estimate of
their own souls. Silent believers were
urged to come out into the open, and
shine for God. And Christians were
urged to make soul-winning the great
concern, and business of their lives.
Allother things were to be incidental.
First, and chief, mans task was to
win his brother for Jesus Christ, and
right living, and heaven, and God,
the speaker said.
To-nights subject is "A Model Seek
er; and a Model Christian" The Bible
study this afternoon will be THE
Christian in the World"

RUSS COURTIERS
UNDER ARREST
Two Hundred Adherents of
Former Emperor Held
Closely Guarded

Tsarskoe- -Selo, Russia. March %.
adherent and courtiers of the former
emperor are under arrest here. A cor
respondent of the Associated Press
discovered them in the Nicholas gym
naSium, a big building next to the
City Hall where the commission OF
officers and soldiers who are now ad-
ministering Tsarskoe-Selo has its
headquarters.
In big room on the first floor were
seventy persons in civilian dress, for
merly palace spies and provocative
agents. Here also were four Russian
officers with German names who had
been arrested by old soldiers on suS-
picion of having sent communications
from the former empress to Berlin by
way OF Stockholm. In neighboring
room sat the director of the Tsarskoe
Lyceum school, who was a general in
the army and close friend of Ras-
putin as well as q reactionary member
of the district court.
On the second floor, in q separate
room, Prince Putiatin is held prisoner.
Prince Putiatin was one of reaction
airy Russia's most powerful men. He
was formerly private secretary to the
Emperor and in recent years dire eCtor
of the palace. Putiatin is famous for
his presence during the interviews in
1906 between reform members of the
Zemstvos and the Emperor. The
Zemstvos delegation warned the mon
arch that a revolution was impending
and, before rejecting their advice,
Nicholas listened to the whispered
council of Putiatin. Dmitri Shipoff,
president of the Zemstvos council,
subsequently reported that the Emper-
or was under the control of the prince.
Outside of Putiatin's room three
members of the civil militia, armed
with bayonets, are on guard. The
prisoners are we'll treated and the cor
ridors are crowded with children wait
ing to see their parents.

Berlin Estimates Losses
of Entente Navies at
$4,000 Tons Since War
By Associated Press

.'N..VVFE1.tW
Berlin, March 20--By wireless to Say
Vile. March 23.-Entente losses in war
ships have now reached a total of $780,
600 tons. says an Overseas News Agen-
cy announcement to- day. This compu-
tation Includes the French battleship OF
the Dapton class recently announced TO
have been sunk by a German submarine
in the Mediterranean. The statement
says:
by the destruction of a ship of the
Danton elias, the warship losses of our
enemies, excluding auxiliary ships, have
reached in round numbers 5000 tons
displacement. This is equal to the
combined tonnage of Russia and Japan
at the beginning of the war, and is
only $4,000 tons less than the tonnage
of the United States navy, which was
the third largest in the world at the
beginning of the war"

BAN ON FLAG REACTS

Fort Wayne, Ind. March 23. - The
American flag was displayed in the
courtroom of Judge John w. Eggeman
and all the attaches of the court wore
small flags on their lapels, by order OF
the Court. This is in the same court
house where, earlier in the week, Will
liam C. Schwier. president of the coun-
ty commissioners, ordered the county
recorder to remove the American flag
from the windows of the recorders Of
fee. Schwier's order caused intense
feeling. The commissioner later made
public apology and flags now appear in

Nipping a Tantrum in the

The time to deal with a fit of anger,
according to Professor NJ. V. O'Shea
who deals with this subject in the
May number of the Mothers Maya
zine, is before it gets full control of
the nervous system. Often it can be
stopped by a vigorous stimulus which
will change the set of the nervous sys-
tenn. A dowsing with cold water will
sometimes produce a reaction which
will instantly arrest a fit and put u
child in much better frame of mind.
On the other hand, after a tantrum is
completely under way, any punish
ment will only increase 1t. Then the
child must be let entirely alone until
the excited nervous system quiets
down.
OF course. child who is slapped or
dowsed with cold water or chastised
in any other way frequently will be-
come immune TO the punishment, and
1t will not divert his attention when
a tantrum is coming on.
A parent who is always doing some
thing to his children often complains
because they ignore what he says or
does. Certainly; they have become i'm
mune to his methods. 1t will COME out
this way in nine cases out of ten.

PRODUCTION OF: ALASKA OIL IS
 BEING HELD UP
Falcon JosIin Predicts a Serious Handicap for Enterprises Unless
 Title Secured.
GOOD OIL AT KATALLA

Falcon Joslin, pioneer railroad man. coal mine operator, oil land developer and all-around Alaskan was in Juneau today on the Alameda bound south after having spent sev eral weeks inspecting his oil inter- ests at Katalla.
 MT. Joslin reports that the oil in dustry is very unsatisfactory on ac- count of the inability to secure title to the oil lands, which prevents capital from developing the industry MT. Joslin and associates have just completed the sinking of their ninth we'll and are at present drilling ar other one.
 We have been unable to supply the demand for our refined product and could sell ten times as much as we can produce if we could get the oil" stated MT Joslin this morn ing. Several of the canneries have been handicapped this year on ac- count of the oil shortage as they were unable to secure oil from Cal ifornia. Next year it will be worse and if we are unable to supply them, many of them will be up against it.
 "The small refinery being operat- ed in connection with the oil wells which are now producing, is being worked to capacity at the present time. The oil secured is very high grade and when refined over 70 per cent of it goes into gasoline and distillate. The heavier oils and lubricants from the crude product are at present wasted as it would not pay to put in plant to save them until larger production of crude oil is possible"

MAY EXEMPT THE GOLD MINERS
 OF YUKON
Conscription May Not Be Hard Applied to Men Who Engaged
 in Mining.
YUKON SENDS ITS QUOTA
MeatIess Days Are Being Observed Now on the Steamers Operating
 on the Yukon.

The new federal Canadian laws covering conscription, income tax, meatless days and other measures, apply to the Yukon territory the same as to other parts Of Canada. This was the information received here this morning brought in mail advices on the Alameda from Daw- son. However, assurance is given that exemption boards will exempt all men engaged in the necessary work of the Yukon, and in view of the large number of enlistments al ready, and the special conditions in the interior, it is reasonable to as- sume that the exemption boards, which comprise the local tribunals, will do nothing unnecessarily to inn pair the productiveness of the mines.
 The Yukon has contributed ten per cent. of her men voluntarily which is twice the average per centage for the whole dominion to date, so if the other provinces can will not be expected to send large additional number of men now.
 The meatless days are now effec- tive on the steamers on the Yukon operating between Whitehorse and Dawson.
 It is generally believed, accord ing to the latest report that the ex- emption boards will not impair the working force of the Yukon.
