BLOCK HOUSE FORTS
 ALONG MEXICAN RAILROADS

MEXICO CITY.-Block houses, constructed of reinforced concrete and large enough to hold 60 men, are the war departments latest pro- ject for putting an end to bandit attacks on trains. The plan now under consideration is to build these miniature forts at points along the railways commanding exposed DOT tions of the track and tunnels. The recent recrudesence of bandit at tacks, especially on the roads from the capital to Vera Cruz and Tam pico, has spurred the government to action. One of the most recent feats of the bandits was to cut the water, light and power supply of the capital for nearly ten hours.

ENGLAND TO START
 NATIONAL RESTAURANTS

LONDON.-The national restaur. ant here, which was established to expose the profiteers, is not only self-supporting, but is making a good profit, according to Alderman C. F. Spencer, its director. Caterers had charged that the enterprise was able to supply good food at reason able prices only because it had gov ernment aid. ..." .>...
 After deducting rent, manage ment charges and all other expenses the restaurant has been clearing about s35O a week or 70 per cent a year on it's capital.
 Meals sold for 13 cents yield a net profit of about two cents; Com menting on this the Mancheste. Guardian observes. "It is thus be- yond question that, even at war prices, excellent food in sufficient quantities can be sold at prices with in the reach of everyone, with a sound profit left over."
 The British Food Controller thus is encouraged in his policy of open ing national restaurants in other big cities.

BIG BRIDGE IS
 BEING STRIPPED
 0F- ALL MATERIAL

Operations were commenced last week by a gang of men organized for that purpose, with the work of dismantling the big 1900 foot trestle across Lost Slough, near the A. E. c. camp at 20-mile, and very large quantity of guard rails, stringers and ties will be recovered for use farther along the line.
 The salvage material for the present, will be stored near camp 9 and out of reach of the flood waters, to be freighted over to the D line for conveyance to the point where it will be used, later on.
 Lost Slough is reported to be overflowing and will probably gla- cier up the surrounding country, as before, in course of time.
 A considerable stretch of the com pleted roadbed in the immediate neighborhood of the Lost Slough bridge, with a large quantity of ties and three hundred rails still remain to be salvaged. This section of the road was completely covered by the flood waters from Lost Slough, and salvage operations were consequently rendered impossible.
 The gang sent out some time ago to recover all the available material along the old roadbed and to take up as much of the rails and ties as possible, were not able to ap- proach near enough to salvage this section of the road at that time, and consequently, the salvaging of the remaining rails and ties was put off for more convenient season.
 It was the intention of the A. E. C. officials to commence these oper- ations immediately after the freeze up from the 20 mile end of the road, but the overflowing of Lost Slough so early in the season has necessitated postponment of these plans. sl
 During last summers floods the roadbed in the neighborhood of the big trestle was submerged to a con- sideraL.e depth and salvage opera tions were not possible, and during the winter the country was badly glaciered, heavy coat of ice, sev- eral feet in thickness covering the rails. It is quite possible that no attempt to recover the rails and ties will be made until next fall, when the level of the water in the river and slough is at its lowest ebb.

COOLIES GET BIG PAY
 WHILE IN FRANCE

LONDON-The Allies have em- ployed 5O,OO0 Chinese behind the fighting lines in France, principally for road and railway building, black. smith and carpentry work. Although China declared war on the Central Powers almost year ago, the Chinese are made to understand that when transported to France. they will not be used in the fighting lines.
 Coolies are paid about $13.50 month and pay for other laborers ranges upward to about $27 a month for skilled men. In addition they are given s25O, a fabulous sum for coolies, as a bonus for em- barking for France, $75 in case of injury and s15O is given to the next of kin in case of death.

ORDER IS ISSUED STOPPING TRAVEL
 DURING EPIDEMIC

Commissioner R. S. Mcdonald re- ceived a telegram on Saturday after noon from Judge Bunnell of the Fourth Judicial division, indicating that travel from one precinct to an other during the prevalence of the influenza epidemic is prohibited, and directing the commissioner to take steps to see that the order is obeyed applying to everybody in the terri applyig to everybody in the terri tory refers more particularly to the Indians, who are, as a general rule, always on the move, especially dur ing the winter season.
 By reason of their ignorance of the nature of the epidemic now pre- vailing it is felt that their free movements from place to place and possible contact with diseased per sons, constitute a grave menace to the public health and safety.
 In terms of the telegram, Com- missioner Mcdonald has taken the matter up with the Indian council and has issued the following mani feSto:
 Nenana, Alaska, Nov. 9, 1918. To the Members of the Council
 of the Native Village, at Nenana,
 Alaska.
 Your attention is called to an order that has been issued by the Assistant Commissioner of Health for the Fourth Judicial Division which directs that there must be no travel from one village to an other during the continuance of the influenza epidemic and until further notification.
 This order will be rigidly en- forced, first, because it is the law, and, secondly, because it has been issued for the protection of every man, woman and child in our com munity. It applies to white people equally as to natives, and the person who breaks this rule, and thereby endangers other people, is not only dishonorable, but criminal.
 The Board of Health of Nenana, and Mir. Frederick D. Browne, en- gineer in charge of the Alaskan Engineering Commission, are doing everything possible to prevent this sickness from coming to Nenana, and Judge Bunnell, who sends this order to me to be communicated to you, feels quite sure that your honorable council will give him all the help you can to insure of it's enforce ment.
 You have no doubt heard that there is much sickness among the natives at Nome and other places on the coast. It is probable that this distressful condition arose be- cause steps were not taken in time to effectively quarantine those places. If this sickness should come to Nenana everything possible will be done to help those who suffer, but it will not come if your people and the white residents will obey the instructions given them by the authorities. It is far better to put up with some slight inconvenience now than suffer the sorrows and sickness which will surely come if we are not careful

GOOD ROADS IN NEW ZEALAND
Concrete Declared Mot Satisfactory
In Land Of Heavy Ralns-cheaper
In eonu Run.

The New Zealand authorities, both
local md national, are carefully study.
Ing the subject Of good roads, realiz-
ing that this Is the best way to open
up the hinterland Of the dominion. The
ronds Of the country, in the main. are
not in very good condition. There are
some good stone ronds, about the larg-
er ccntcrs but few of them extend out
more thnn 25 or 80 miles. Their up
keep hns been found very expensive.
especially in the northern part Of the
country, since the rainfall is heavy
and wnslouts arc numerous because
the stone used Is soft and grinds up
rapidly, the Scientific American states.
OF late much has been said In re-
gard to the construction Of concrete
highways, and 1t is thought that this
will be far cheaper in the long run
than the stone roads as they are now
constructed. for the reason thnt the
upkcep will be SO very greatly reduced.
1t Is estimated that mile Of 12-foot
concrete road four inches thick could
be built in New Zealand for $1,000
more than mile of ordinary stone
rOnd. on which there would be q saving
in upkcep for the first five years OF Mt
least $1,000. while Mt the end Of ten
years there would be a saving Of ST.
600 or $4,000.
