forego coveted possessions or even ne
cessities. The work must go on, be-
cause there is no one thing that con-
tributes 80 much to the spirit and eff
ficiency of the troops. The Y. M. G.
A. is working night and day to help
the government win this war. And
every penny that is given to aid the
work is a direct assistance to the
health, happiness and strength of your
boy and mine.
Snapshots of kaleidoscope Work.
In all the big cities in France where
our men pass through in large num-
bers, the Y. NJ G. A. is operating
hostels, where they can get beds and
meals at a minimum cost. In London
the American Y. M. c. A. mas erected
a large building for our soldiers and
clubhouse for American officers.
There are Y. M. C. A. dugouts right
behind the front line trenches, where
the soldiers can get hot drinks, crack
ers and other comforts at all hours.
Over 1000 men who had been reject
ed on account of physical disability
have been able to get into the British
army by reason of the physical work
of the British Y. M. c. A.
A feet of motor cars leaves the big
Y. M. c. A. headquarters in London at
midnight every night to pick up SOL
diers who are wandering about the
streets without any wholesome lodging
in which to spend the night. These
cars are operated by Englishwomen
of position and refinement, who report
that they never meet any discourtesy
at the hands of the soldiers. The i'm
portance of this service can be est1-
mated by the fact that at least $4,000
soldiers are on leave in London every
week. Over half of these sleep in Y.
M. G. A. beds every night.
Entertainment on Vast Scale.
The Y. M c. A. has erected big
auditorium, seating 5000, in each of
the big draft camps, and huge chautau-
qua tents, seating $500 in the other
encampments- The association is run
ming a % week entertainment circuit
among the camps and is paying Id
companies of entertainers, who are
travelling to 80 camps performing be-
fore the men.
In each of the draft camps the Y.
M. c. A. has ten secretaries engaged
in educational work. The association
lis seeing to it that every man who
cannot speak English is taught to do
so. In many of the camps the asso-
citation has a singing director, who Is
teaching the men to sing the popular
and martial airs that do so much to
keep up their spirits.
Dix only three are being paid full sal
aries. In all the camps the majority
Of the Y. NJ G. A. men have left lucra-
i've positions to do this work simply
because its appeal is irresistible to
any red blooded man. Harry Lauder,
he famous Scotch singer and come
liam, now on his farewell concert tour
n the United Sta ties, is giving all his
spare time to the service of the asso-
,iation and is sin ging to the soldiers

ASKED WHAT HE MEANS BY
FREEDOM OF THE SEAS

ROME, Sept. 6.-The British and
Belgian ministers accredited to the
Vatican were received separately to-
day by Pope Benedict, whom they
questioned as to the meaning Of the
reference to the freedom OF the seas
in the pope's pease proposal. The
pontiff replied he intended to give to
this condition the same meaning as
that of President Wilson in his mes
sage, while leaving ample liberty to
the belligerents to agree in future dis
cussion as to details.
Germany today acknowledged re-
ceipt of the peace note. promising to
examine 1t with benevolent interest

Charged
EMbEzz[EMENT
Apprehended on Steamer Victoria and
Taken to Fairbanks by Deputy
L. 8. Marshal

Deputy Marshal S. o. easier left
yesterday for Fairbanks taking with
him Tom E. Watson, whom he will
deliver at that place to an officer OF
the Second Division, who Is now on
his way to meet Mr.. easier and the
prisoner.
Watson was arrested at Seward on
telegraphic warrant from Nome,
and was taken off the steamship Wv
toria, en- route to the States. Wat
son is charged with the crime of en-
bezzlement by bailee. While at Sew
ard Watson, through his attorney, at
tempted to secure writ of habeas
corpus. but failed. Watson claimed
that he was innocent of any wrong
doing, and that the prosecution was
trumped up to secure possession OF
quantity of gold dust he had sent to
the States. He admitted owing some
bills in Nome, and there was due to
the owner of a claim he had been
working, rOydiIleS W tHc ohiouh' Va
about 5000. He said that he went out
to the Victoria to spend the last
hours while the steamer was in port
with a young lady with whom he had
been keeping company, and that the
thought of parting with her overcame
him, and he decided to accompany
her to the States, where he hoped to
marry her and return to Nome. He
stated that he had about $4,000
worth of gold dust in Seattle, and II
permitted to handle this himself
could pay off all his Indebtedness and
have several thousand dollars for
himself, but if attached all his share
would be eaten up in costs. The
court, while denying the writ of ha-
beas corpus, fixed the bail for the re-
lease of the accused at $4,000, which
was to have been forwarded here on
Tuesday, but it failed to appear, and
the prisoner will be taken to Nome
for trial.

GENERAL ANSWERS
EDITOR CASKEY
Says Only Way to Convince Editor OF
irresponsible Fairbanks Paper
Is Club With Hard Knots

Editor ProSpector:-Per me to
express my appreciation. personally
and on behalf of the Alaska Road
Commission. of your article of Aug
ust 18th in the Miner concerning the
"howF' of the Fairbanks Citizen
against the Valdez Fairbanks wagon
road in general and myself in par
ticular. I sent to the editor of the
News-Miner in Fairbanks brief
statement of some of the difficulties
which have beset the construction Of
this road and some figures on the cost
of roads in general-which will doubt
less come to your Office in due time
for the information of persons who
are willing to be fairminded. The edi-
tor of the Fairbanks Citizen is not
of this class. however. but only an
irresponsible and miserable defamer
against whom there is no protection
except in the use of a we'll seasoned
club with plenty of hard knots upon
it.
The statement in your article as to
the overloaded condition of the little
Ford car upon leaving Valdez gives
emphasis to this fact, and also lends
color to the report which has reached
this Office that much anger was arous-
ed in the hearts of these great trav-
elers. which found expression in many
evil words. because the Road Com
mission teamsters declined to aban-
don their work and haul the over
loaded Ford car for miles through
the soft stretches of road.
Another grievance seems to have
been the presence along the road of
a few mosquitoes which fed upon the
cheechaco. presume he expected the
Road Commission crews to chase all
these mosquitoes back into the brush
while he was passing through.
Yours truly.
