DANES AUCTION
 FLATS ID EAGER HOME HUNTERS

LONDON.-A shortage of homes is adding to the woes of residents of Danish cities. Many brickyards according to a Dane who has just returned here from Copenhagen, have had to close, with the result that building virtually has ceased and flat hunting had developed into what might be called flat auctions.
 If flat was advertised for rent in the papers, probably a hundred persons would assemble that day outside the building. No one was admitted to the flat but the care taker, when he thought a large enough crowd had collected, would throw open his window and say something like this:
 "The rent of this flat. ladies and gentlemen. is so much year. Which of you will pay me most for arranging matters?"
 Then a kind of auction would be held, and whoever made the largest bid for the services of tn care taker would secure the flat.
 Now the flat famine has developed to such an extent that the diligent flat seeker studies the death an nouncemnts, proceeds immediately to the residence and assails the mourners with questions about their plans in regard to the flat.

HUN CAMOUFLAGE
 WELL DEVELOPED

LONDON.-A British air officer writing from the Western front, says that the Germans have this spring brought camouflage to a state of artistic perfection that is almost incredible "The most ex- pert and highly experienced air men are often deceived even when flying low" he writes ''As first step, the German military authori- ties sought suggestions from the most distinguished German artists in color, As the next step, every available man was turned on to the business of carrying out the artists idea.
 Miles of canvas painted to look like roads were constructed, under which regiments could march with out being seen. Paper encamp- ments were improvised, and aero dromes, woods, villages and fac tories of a purely fictitious char acter were set up merely to dis tract observers and to cover the movements of troops and guns. Nothing on so vast a scale has even been attempted before"

MAYOR OF SPOKANE
 MAKES PREDICTION

SPOKANE.-"These two flags" those of Canada and the United States, twill be carried side by side by Americans and our Canadian cousins in an effort to maintain the worlds peace" said Dr. E. B. Olmsted, mayor of Spokane.
 There was nothing remarkable in that declaration, in view of existing conditions, except the fact that it was made nineteen years ago.
 Dr. Olmsted was mayor of Spok- ane back in 1899, and in that capac- ity he made an official trip to Ross land, B. c. to attend a midwinter carnival there. While on that visit Dr. Olmsted was asked to reply to an address of welcome, and in so doing he made reference to the Union Jack, which he had borne in a parade and the Stars and Stripes which had been carried by Mayor Goodeve, of Rossland.

TWO MEN PERISH IN LOST SLOUGH
 WHILE CROSSING
George Noeller and AK Kadzoff Lose Their Lives When Scow
 Turns Turtle.

The report was received in town yesterday afternoon that an acci- dent at the Lost Slough ferry re- sulting in the drowning of two men had occurred and the officials of the Alaskan Engineering commission immediately detached men from the dragline and Clear creek camps and sent them to Lost Slough to render what assistance they could and to help in the search of the bodies.
 On enquiry, it was ascertained that about Il 80 yesterday morning a party of seven men started across Lost Slough at the ferry established at point about one hundred yards distant from where it leaves the main river and swings in toward the grade. The scow had been re- gently built by the A. E. c. for the ferry service across this slough and was being used for the first time yesterday, in fact it was it's second trip since it was launched. The scow was loaded with the hammer of Piledriver No l, which weighed about a ton, and freight wagon. When about sixty feet from the north bank of the slough, the ropes attaching the scow to the cable stretched across the slough, were slackened little to avoid a snag, and, in some unaccountable manner the men on board would appear to have lost control, and the scow, swinging broadside on to the swift current, filled and sank, throwing the occupants into the stream.
 Five of the men managed to make the bank, but Noeller and Kadzoff would appear to have been carried down by the swift current. KadZoff was never seen, but J. M. Burrows, foreman in the employ of the A. E. C., who was one of the occupants of the scow, says that he saw Noeller some distance down stream, just at he landed, but soon lost sight of him.
 Noeller was we'll known in Ne mana, and leaves a wife and young family, the youngest of whom is only five months old, to bemoan his loss. Mrs Noeller has been in poor health for some time past and the news of the death of her hus. band came as great shock to her AK Kadzoff has a brother ir this district, who is now with the search parties on the banks o1 Lost Slough;. and a cousin, Jin kozofe. now on the way to St Michael with the boys of the draft
 Up to a late hour this afternoon none of the bodies had been re covered

missions from Berlin in the official
German report of heavy and continu-
Gus hostile artillery fire in the Mount

heavy field ordnance Is hammering
that vantage point viciously.
Tonight's Berlin statement contains
the announcement that 1.-The artillery
action revived last night IN the KEN

This Is taken to mean that these
heights taken as such cost in the

them and that II they are to be used
as "a kick OF" point In q renewal OF

in Flanders the British took prisoners,
while In a patrol fight north at the
