"The Money Mill' at Palace Theatre Tonight.

Dorothy Kelly and Evart Overton. two well known Vitagraph stars. will be in the feature, "The Money Mill'' at the Palace tonight. Besides the big productions there will also be other good things on the bill.
 Regarding "The Money Mill,' the press matter says the following: She met him on the bread line; direct from the teeming gold mines she came-into the swirling city. Into the sham of battle where the false gods of greed and selfshness dominate, she sought among the fortune hunters-one whose ideals were high enough whose ambi- tions were true enough to marry her for herself alone and not for the gold she possessed.
 There on the bread line she met him and though differing on a social blanche helped her in the fight on '"rhe Money Mill" that the dearest wish of her heart was gratifed.
 There's the lure of Alaska-the big throbbing emotions of strong people in "The Money Mill'' and sweet gentle love story that breathes the spirit of unselfish service.

JUNEAUITE GETS
 AN OREGON MINE

T. C. Hallum, of Juneau, has se-
 yelop it, according to the following
 from the Roseburg, Ore, Review:
 A patnet was secured today
 through the local Land Office by T. c. Hallum, of Alaska, on his quartz
 mine located about three and one-
 half miles south of Riddle and Can yonville. The mine is said to be
 one of the best of it's kind in the vicinity and MT. Hallum said that he intends to develop it in time as soon as he can make the necessary arrangements. Filing of the patent was just completed by MT. Hallum today.
 MT. Hallum reached this city di- rect from Juneau, Alaska, where he had been located for many years He has extensive mining interests 1 in the Alaskan territory and has spent more than 20 years in the
 mines there, so he is a miner of some experience. 1t was his judg-
 ment that Douglas County contains good ore deposits and he said that he would like to make his home near Canyonville. Mir. Hallum is well pleased with this country, and it is his intention to open up his quartz mine as soon as possible. Before commencing operations he will probably leave soon for Alaska to make arrangements for his bus mess interests there.

JUNEAU CHAPTER OF AMERICAN
 RED CROSS
(Juneau Chapter meets Tues day, Thursday, and Saturday afternoons, at the City Ha!i, at one o'clock)

Juneau Chapter is now putting forth every effort to complete the knitted articles necessary for ship ment on October 1st. A request has been issued that these articles be in division headquarters by that date, but the Juneau Chapter will probably be obliged to ship from here about next Monday.
 Knitters are urged to spend ex- tra time on their knitting this week and to turn in all finished articles as quickly as possible. Knitting which cannot be finished this month will of course. be included in a lat er shipment, but the October ship ment is of special importance be- cause it will reach the front before severe winter weather closes in A finished scarf or sock may mean the difference between comfort and mis- cry for one of our soldiers, and the American Red Cross is therefore anxious to send every available knitted article in the October ship ment.
 In accordance with their policy of reporting frequently to the Ameri- can people concerning the use which is being made of all Red Cross funds, the War Council of the Amer ican Red Cross has issued an exten- 'sive report on American Red Cross work in Europe. It is detailed account of the work done among our Allies, and for our prisoners in Germany, and report of the ap- prOpriations made for this work. A copy of this report is on file in the office of the Juneau Chapter.
 Last spring during the last few weeks of school the vocational class es of the New York State public schools made over 10000 Red Cross articles. all of which were in every way up to the rigid standards of the organization. Similar success in many schools has caused the Red Cross to announce the launching of a Junior Red Cross, which will rec ognize the loyalty and ability of 22, O0O,000 school girls and boys, and provide a channel for their patriotic service.
 A check for s435 was recently re- reived from Antofagasta, Chile, by President Wilson, as president of the American Red Cross. It rep resents the proceeds of an enter tainment given on July in the Eng fish Club of that city, and in ae- cordance with the expressed desire of the donors will be used for Red Cross work in France.
 Within the last week several names have been added to. the list of regular subscribers to the local fund for Red Cross work in Ju- neau Chapter.
 The Friends, who are conscientious objectors to war, are proving them selves a strong factor in remedying the evils of war. The English Friends now have 150 workers in France Their work deals with the care of refugees from the war area and with reconstruction and rehab- ilitation in the devasted areas. It has been supported by gifts from Friends in England and America, and has the warm approval of the Red Cross.

BRIDGEPORT FIRMS OPPOSE BILL AIMED
 AT TRADING STAMPS

Hartford, March 8-At yesterdays hearing of the Judiciary committee, John H. Buck opposed Representative Browns bill prohibiting the issuance grounds that it was foolish and but another attempt to interfere with the business of reputable firms.
 Lawyer Harold Durant of Hartford, who was responsible for the intro- duction of one of the anti-stamp bills, spoke in favor of it, saying that it was much along the lines of lottery and should not be countenanced. He thought it tended toward immortality.
 The Fairchild & Shelton Co.,, man ufacturers of soap, in Bridgeport, op- posed the bill. The company is in direct competition with the I4arkin Coap Co. in Buffalo, which would not be affected by the proposed law, and the Fairchild & Shelton Go would be forced out of business in the event of the passage of the bill. The Sperry (. Hutchinson Go. of Bridgeport and the Ingraham Go. of Bristol were also opposed.
 Opposition for William Boardman of Hartford was presented by Judge Albert c. Bill, who merely repeated arguments given previously.
 Kenneth Wynee of New Haven ex- hibited two soap products, one of which was sold at half the price of the other, even though trading

QUEEN ANNE.


 Queen Anne, the last member of the house of Stuart who sat upon the English throne, assumed the crown 215 years ago today, March 8, 1702, when William III. died as the result of a fall from a horse. Anne was tile second daughter of James IT., by his first marriage with Anne Hyde. Though both her parents became Catholics, she was reared and edu- cated in the principles of the Church of England, and refused to accom- pany her father into exile. In 1883 she was married to Prince George, brother of King Christian " of Den mark, but the marriage was failure in perpetuating the royal line. Of the IT children she bore, only one sur vived infancy, and he died at the age of II, two years before Anne ascended the throne. Her reign was marked by the union of England and Scotland the conquest, of Gibraltar, and the victories. gained by Marlborough and Prince Eugene. against. the French She was an amiable queen, but fee ble of character and lacking in men tai vigor. Her reign lasted 12 years and when she died in 1714 the house of Hanover, the present royal family, succeeded to the throne.

German Food "Graft"

Craft is supposed to be an Amer
 ican institution, and to have reached
 it's highest state of development in the
 United States, but, according to the
 testimony of many neutral observers
 who have been in Germany within
 the last year, the American grafter, it
 is alleged. but the object of their ma
 chinations is not to put more money
 into their purses, but more food in-
 to their stomachs. The stringent
 regulations regarding the food supply,
 which went into effect last June when
 Adolph von Batocki was appointed
 food controller, have been defeated in
 a thousand ingenius ways, and not a
 day passes without the authorities
 being confronted with some new and
 novel scheme for grating food. In the Germany of to-day it is popular
 saying that there are two kinds of fools-those who Starve themselves by trying to adhere honestly to the gov ernment regulations and those who are so gluttonous that their graft ing''. is inevitably discovered. To enuherate the various methods by which the t'grafters'' get more than their just allowance of food, and by which dealers in foodstuffs' pile up
 profits by charging more than the
 government permits for their commo- dities, would require a volume. The net result is that those who can af ford to pay extortionate prices can get all the food they want. while the poor find it increasingly difficult to buy foodstuffs at the prices established by the government. This Is said to be especially truo of Berlin and other large cities and industrial centers. In the agricultural districts, it is said, the food situation is not nearly so acute as in the cities. The farmers have de- |iveloed many ingenious devices for holding out" stores of foodstuffs. Eat ing in Germany is becoming a ques- ton of wits and of money, in spite of the earnest endeavors of Herr von Ba- tocki and his associates to effect an equal distribution.
