After the War.

In 1914, the old world, as we know it, suddenly became without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep; but now we begin to be- lieve that all the time the spirit of God was moving upon the face of the waters, and that presently he shall say, "Let there be light writes Mar garet P. Montague, in the Atlantic. The first act of the great drama was war and blood and destruction; but now there begins to be q great hope flaring through the darkness in many different quarters, and voices of many watchmen set upon towers begin to cry the glimmer of daybreak Perhaps the world, sailing a dark track, has all along been headed toward great con mmation.-"Time's burst of dawn.

COAST LEAGUE MAKING PROGRESS
 UNDER HANGER

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, May & The Sacramento club of the Pa cific Coast Baseball League, under the leadership of Manager Bill Rodgers, has jumped into instant favor with the fans along the cir cult by reason of the dash and life they are showing in their play. For the time being, at least, they are the most popular aggregation in the league as they furnish more life and entertainment during the games to the spectators than any of the other clubs.
 Rodgers has imbued his men with the idea that they must be fighting every minute and that this may best be done by constant active physi- cal participation. The result is that the men constantly are on their toes. Not the least of their show of ginger is in their vocal demon strations, the men on the cOachin lines keping up constant fire ot chatter likely to disturb the equan- imity of tine opposing pitcher and keep their own men on the alert These tactics have proved popular with the crowds who often arc forced to sit through many listless lifeless games.

MOTHER AND FATHER MEET SON ONLY TO
 BID HIM GOODBYE

There are plenty of pathetic incl dents and real heart throbs in the preparations for departure of the draft registrants to serve their coun- try. Among them is the incident of the arrival here recently of Mir. and Mrs. c. H. Jernigan, of Kansas City, to meet their son Earl s. ter nigan, formerly of Wrangell, and now working at Treadwel. He has been called to the colors and they are to lose him again, but they are proud of the fact that they have a son to give to the cause. of humanity. No single incident of the war has brought it so close to home to the entire city as the recent draft call. Many Juneau boys have already left and some of them are now serving at the front, but their departure was taken as a matter of course, and did not make so much impression on the community as whole, as is the case with the present registrants.
