 Town.

Washington. Aug. 23.-ASSurances reached the State Department today that the anti-Bolshevik governments at Omsk and Vladivostok are in full accord, which officials said meant that all Siberia virtually is under one government with small portion near 1rkutsk controlled by Bolshevik forces, aided by former German and Austrian prisoners.
 The agreement between the two governments was considered by off cials here as one of the most impor- tant developments in the Russian tangle that has occurred since the overthrow of the Kerensky govern ment.
 The information came from Vladi- vostock, it is understood, and is ac- cepted Icy officials here as presumably authentic.
 The significance of this declared agreement is that the Siberian gov ernment is the largest and strongest of the various movements to align Russia again as against the enemy.
 CzechO.SlOvaks Win Victory.
 London, Aug. 23.-Lord Robert Cecil, the British undersecretary for foreign affairs, announced this even- ing that reports had fbeen received in London to the effect that the Czecho- Slocak forces in Transbaikalia had captured the town of Berchnieudineck south of Lake Baikal, and had achieved decided victory against the iBOlshevki forces.

A MILLION INSURED.

At the close of Wednesday, Febru-
ary 13, over 100000 soldiers and
sailors and Army and Navy nurses
had applied for government insur-
ance under the soldier and sailor in
surance law. The amount of insur-
ance applied for is more than S.
100000. The maximum permit
ted to any person is $4,000, and the
average applied for is $8,212. There
are many applications mailed from
distant points which have not yet
reached the Treasury Department
The above figures are only Of appli-
cations that have been actually re-
ceived and granted.
The amount of government insur-
ance in force is more than three times
as much as the total ordinary life in
surance in force with any life insur-
ance company in the world.

WAR SAVING STAMPS.

Treasury receipts from the sale of
war savings stamps are running at
the rate Of $11, 100000 a week. Saw
ings bank deposits in the last few
years have been increasing at the
rate of 100000 a business day
Treasury receipts show the American
people are putting their small saw
ings at the service OF the nation thru
war savings stamps at a rate far in
excess of prewar-savings bank accu-
mutations.
. Two billion dollars of war savings
securities will be issued If these
are all sold this year the Treasury

MORE SILVER MONEY.

The utility of silver for coinage
purposes is being rendered acutely
manifest by the wars emergencies
The minting Of silver coins is pro-
ceeding at every mint in the country
at from five to eight times the vol
ume of past years. 1t is said that
forces at the mints will be augment
ed soon and may be put on longer
hours to meet the demand, which is
so great that the coinage of gold has
been discontinued temporarily in or
der to permit the mints to turn out
the silver coins. The chief demand
is understood to be for quarters and
dimes, but it is probable vast quanti-
ties of dollars and half dollars are
being turned out to keep the coins Of
smaller denominations company

OPINION IMPORTANT TO CLAIM
HOLDERS.

Many inquiries have come to the
State Bureau of Mines as to the re-
suits of failure to file application OF
notice to hold mining claims under
Public Resolution No. Il before the
required date, December 31st, as
many notices were filed at a later
date.
Through the courtesy OF Congress
man Carl Hayden, the following op-
inion has been given by Clay Tall
man, commissioner of the General
Land Office at Washington, that it
would seem that the failure to file
notice OF intention to hold mining
claim on or before December 31st,
1917, in no way affected the posses
sorry title unless the said claims were
relocated between that date and the
actual date of filing.
For instance, il man failed to
file until January 10th, and his claims
were not relocated between Decem-
Der 31st and Jan. 10th he would not
lose title.
This is an important opinion, for
it will affect many cases.

FEDERAL AID ASKED TO DE-
VELOP MINES.

Immediate further development OF
Americas mineral resources to save
for food and army supplies ship
ship space now used for bringing min
erals from abroad is now planned by
Secretary Lane, who has asked con-
gress for a special appropriation so
that large force of metallurgists
can be sent out to work on changes
in practice necessary for the use of
lower grade manganese ores needed
as an alloy for steel.
cat the present time" said Mr..
Lane, "every ship that can be spared
is badly needed in France. The min
erals, which we can supply and which
are imported, come from many dis
tant sources, involving long voyages
and delays in loading. These min
erals represent an import Of about
100000 long tons per year, three
fourths of which can be eliminated
in case of extreme necessity.
Americas mines can produce all
of these minerals, providing they are
given the necessary assistance of the
federal government. Many new man
ganese mines must be developed at
once and if these mines are to sur
vive after war conditions and be-
come permanent industries, they
must be able to operate efficiently and
take advantage of the most improved
methods

VOCATIONAL EDUCATION.

The Smith-Hughes act which pass
ed congress February II, 1917, and
the provisions of which were accept
ed by the last legislature provides
Arizona with $4,000 for the year
1917-1918 and will automatically
increase until 1926, when it will
reach the permanent fund of $780,
000O. These amounts must be
matched dollar for dollar by the
state. For the year 1917-191S, there
will be available for vocational edu-
cation in Arizona $4,000.
This money will be used to develop
in the schools the teaching of agri-
culture, home economies, and the
industrial trades One-third Of the
fund will be devoted to training
teachers so they may be equipped to
teach these subjects adequately

HOW CAMOUFLAGE IS PRO
NOUNCED.

In war in which so many nations
of the world are participating, and
with the United States allied with
European countries, a, large number
of foreign words are rapidly coming
into use which are more or less baf-
fling to the American people.
The word comaufiage, which is used
so frequently in war dispatches in
connection with the armies abroad
has been much discussed. The word,
which. is supposed by many to be
strictly French, is a French adapta-
tion of an Italian word (camuffare) !,
which means to disguise, and the
connection used at the present means
The concealing of the equipment of
men. For instance, soldier is fire.
IuentIy disguised, encaSed in sheaves
Of grain, while artillery is often
masked with an arbor of leaves
branches, etc. The word has been
used in France for some time more
or less in slang sense, and is pro-
nounced ka-muf1azh, the last pro-
nounced broad.

AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting
series of experiments having a. their
object the improvement of smoking
tobaccoa.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest. and that was, that cooking
or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took real Burley tobacco, grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes, called them
LUCKY STRIKE, the toasted cigarette"
and offered them to the public
The result has been the greatest demand
ever created for any tobacco product iu .
similar length Of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the favor 10
greatly improved, just as cooking improves
meat, for example.
