TINE is NOW SHORT
FOR CHRISTMAS PACKAGES

Don't forget that all Christmas pres
ents intended for American soldiers
and sailors must be at Red Cross
headquarters by next Wednesday
night. They must go forward Novem-
ber Is or not at all. This applies to
money intended for presents as we'll
as the presents themselves
The local postal authorities have
agreed to have a representative pres
ent to oversee the packing Of the
presents and this will obviate the ne
cessity of opening them for inspec-
ton. Good men and women in 'all
parts of the county are working to
round up Latah's full quota of 300
packages and they will do it if Moscow
gets to bat in proper style.
1t is no trouble at all to leave pack
ages or money at Red Cross head

Whitman was clearly outplayed in
the first half. The invaders KICKED
off and Thompson returned the ball
45 yards. Whitman held and after
line tried several forward passes all
of which were incomplete. When the
ball wen over to Idaho, Thompson
punched the enemys line for sub
stantial gains but an unfortunate
tumble gave the ball to Whitman and
it was punted far out in the field.
How Thompson Went Over.
But from this point Thompson and
Breshears took up an irresistible
march down the field The sensation
of the half came when Fullback
Thompson broke through the Whit
man line for a run of 45 yards to
their eight-yard line. From there the
same doughty Idaho warrior carried
the ball over in two punches through
the line. He missed try for goal.
Add Three More.
Soon after the opening of the sec
ond quarter Thompson dropped back
to the 4O-yard line and kicked a
pretty goal from placement raising
the score to 80 in favor of the Idaho
team. Toward the end fthis quar-
ter Whitman succeeded in a long for
ward pass, Carver to DeGrief, and
from where the ball went down Whit
yard line. 1t looked like a touchdown |
for the enemy but Bleamaster's band !
rallied and held the invaders for
downs just as the whistle blew end
ing the first half of the battle.

Mail coming to Skagway conveys the information that the Japanese rruighter Koto Sra Maru went ashore July 27 ou Amichitka island, SvU miles west of Dutch HarbOr, and that it's cargo valued at $1,- UUO,OOU is g total loss. A life uoat iu charge of the second offie- e. and 20 men arrived in Dutch Harbor last Thursday after having been nearly month on the way. Tho captaiu's boat and first of- licer's boat are still missing. The ship was owned by the Katsuba & Co.,, ot Kobe, Japan.
 Amvhitka Island is a little west of longitude 1SO and between lati- tudes 51 and 52. Ships going to and from Japan often take this uortherly course and it is thought the Maru was destined for San Francesca and was perhaps blown by storm onto Amitchitka island. Us valuable freight cargo, details ot which are not known, leads one to presume also that it may have been bound for Siberian ports with explosives for the Russian gov erumeut and blown out Of its course by severe storms.

 'It is our intention to start de- liVering coal along the coast from Anchorage to Ketchikan, as soon as possible after the railroad reaches our property. The railroad will reach us about the middle of Octo- Der. We will either put in 8 line of barges and tugs, or if we find
 it. necessary, will run 8 line of steamers to handle our product. It Is our belief that Matanuska coal can be sold at the dock at Juneau for $S per ton, and at the same time make a good profit. w @ will either retail to the local dealers or establish an agency of our own."
