Second football teams of the
two Tacoma high schools began
their interscholastic championship
series yesterday afternoon in the
Stadium, Lincoln losing the first

SEARCHERS TO BE ARMED
 WITH FULL AUTHORITY

Armed with the authority of fed eral officers, Captain Tverson, and his crew of men, and Capt. Shet- fer got away today on the second search for the two missing Seward men, Ben Sweasy and Bill Weaver. Capt. John Newlands, of the steam CT Dora, brought no information regarding the missing men and U. 5. Deputy Marshal Isaac Evans de cided at once to send the second party of. searchers.
 The sasboat Altana will be sup piled with provisions and fuel to last for a ten day or two weeks trip and the men are given Ruthori- ty to make a thorough inyestiga- tion, make arrests, if this should be required, and also empow cred to summon witnesses
 The searchers will go direct to Aialik Bay and explore the beach and surrounding country in hopes of finding some clues. If.none are secured there, the coast line will be visited as far as Seldovia, then the party will go to Barren islands. Efforts will be made to find some tangible evidence, and if any cloth ing, supplies, etc, known to have belonged to the men are found, those having such will be question ed closely and if necessary arrests will be made.-Seward Gateway, Nov. 22.

COST S9 TO START 4 DRAFT
 MAN TO CAMP LEWIS

Every man sent to Camp Lewis in the first draft call cost the state ot Washington just $9, according to 8 message sent to the local draft boards by Gov. Ernest Lister
 Asking for the cooperation Of all doctors, lawyers, school teachers and clerks, Gov. Lister wrote to the local boards lupressing upon them that the expenses of the boards must be kept at minimum. Volunteer clerical aid is the recom- mendation that the governor makes to keeo down the expenses of The board.
 The mobilization of the medical and legal fraternities of the na- ton will largely relieve the expenses of the board" writes Gov. Lister. The provost marshal general has written to me that $1,O00,0OO can be saved the nation by volunteer celrical work"
 Gov. Lister announces that soon he will issue a statement asking all the school teachers and clerks in the state to tender services to the boards in the evenings.
 The $9 which is the estimated cost of sending a drafted Washing ton man to Camp Lewis does not include his railroad fare. It mere ly is the. amount spent upon him before he leaves his home station for the Cantonement.

is dealt with in an article published by the Berliner Tageblatt, which states that negotiations are at present going on between the war food bureau and the imperial sugar office, on the issue of which de bends whether the chemically pure white lump and castor sugar are to be replaced by raw sugar, to which the name of best" sugar
 (Edelzucker) is to be given. The motive for this innovation is to economize in coal. Sugar factories are to be amalgamated. This raw sugar contains AZ per cent molas- ses, 1 per cent organic and F per cent inorganic foreign substances and 1t is considered by experts as a breeding ground for bacteria of
 every kind, The sticky, vicous na- ture of this sugar also adds to its objectionable qualities. It Is not not suitable for jam making, and gives a peculiar flavor to coffee, tea, etc. The Tageblatt says that this
 economy in coal will threaten the health of thousands, and hopes the
 nation will be spared the infliction.

Some days l could hardly do my work for it was almost impossible to bend over. My kidneys were weak and annoyed me a great deal, too. was worried because my feet swelled and because of the puffiness under my eyes.

LESS BARLEY FOR BREWING

The Hamburger Fremdenblatt re- north that, owing to the average poor results of the barley harvest it is intended to assign to brewer ies only about 10000 to SO,OOO tons of barley monthly, so that the Oar- ley destined for brewing purposes will be disposed Of in about four or six months. Quitting Bavaria, the peace-ti time consumption of Ger man breweries amounts to about 1.2 million tons of barley. The as signment in the new harvest year would, therefore, amount to not more than 2A per cent of the peace time consumption.

Eeedanr Imprisoned Soldiers

Washington. AS Germany does not
provide sufficient food to keep her
prisoners of war in good health, nor
sufficient clothing, the government is
preparing in conjunction with the
American Red Cross, to fed all Ameri-
can soldiers and sailors who may be
taken prisoner. The war and navy
departments are cooperating with the
Red Cross in working out plans.
Appropriation of $31.212. to buy rs
tons of food for the American prison.
ers now in German camps, numbering
about 10, was announced today by the
Red Cross. The food will be sent to
the Red Cross warehouse at Berne,
Switzerland, where 25 tons have been
sent up to this time. The IS tons
will be sufficient for nine months for
the Americans now held prisoner. 1t
will be dispatched from Berne by the
American legation in standard con-
tainers every two weeks, three ten
pound packages going to each prisoner
which is sufficient to keep him in good
health for a fortnight. The navy
department has shipped 100 outfits of
clothing for the informed seamen and
the war department, IS cases Of cloth
ing for soldiers and interned civilians.
