what Max is. or what he has been.
The essential part is that the power

have picked Max as conven-

 The Empire has heard of no one who ever heard of such society, and notwithstanding that 1t has been a week since the exposure of the misuse of the Flag and the United States mails, no one has come for ward to accept responsibility for the attack on a good American citizen.
 MT. Russell has denied, in street corner conversation, all knowledge of the circular. However, as said, it was sent out in his interest and copies of it mailed in the Ketchikan postoffice while he was in that city. The copies were addressed to peO- pie in out-of-the-way places in the First Division where it was evident ly thought denials would not reach before election. Experts say it could very well have been printed in the Dispatch office, where they have the type that was used in it's printing And, in spite of MT. Russell's denial, he used the identical matter contain ed in the circular, in his Ketchikan speech.

MASKS ARE HERE
 FOR INFLUENZA

Instructions for the making of masks for the prevention of Spanish influenza were received in the mail aboard the Jefferson. The masks, as made according to the San Fran cisco Board of Health's circular. should be five by seven inches and made of four layers of fine gauge. Tape or string should be sewed to the four corners. The upper pair of tapes are to be tied at the back of the head above the ears and the lower pair around the neck.
 The masks, says the circular, should not be medicated in any way. It can be cleansed by boiling for fifteen minutes.
 The wearing of the masks is cop,- pulsory in many of the cities in the States where it has been considered the best protection against the dis ease. The above instruction for mak- ing the masks has been approved by the local health officers.
