 The Kaiser was much surprised Uc was shocked. He assured his be- loved brother mouarchs that hc had no idea they were iu need of any cash. Why hadn't they mentioned it to him before? He was very sorry thcy had been annoyed. He would have everything arranged at once.
 And he was faithful Co his word Bulgaria and Turkey have both been notified that oll their war expenses oJ 1917 and 1918 will be paid by Germany
 When? Oh after the kaiser wins Che war and collects $1OO,OOO,OOO,- OOO indemnity

He is now bacl, In this part of the Territory and is arranging Co spend thc remainder of his days, accord ing ,o Che Douglas correspondent of Che Empire. who says.
 C. J. lJiml Cannon, who has a homestead about forty miles up Lynn saual. having business with Che Uuitd States Land onicc at Juneau. and being m tho community for a few days. was a Douglas caller Monday morning. TO listen Co Jim talk Is like reading a leaf torn from past history.
 Cannon was iu this part of thc country and prospected for placer gold years before gold was discov- cred in che Klondike. In fact. when that great discovery was hcraldcd Co Che world. he was in thc Forty mile country and, like many others. he did mot place sufficient confidence in the reports Co visit Che new field. Later hc spent several years in Che Fairbanks country and then went co thc Westward, where hc located a homestead forty miles from Mt Katmai which cruptcd six years ago. covering bis farm with IS inches Of nice. pale yellow volcanic ashes and after he had spent S5.OOO on it, an thc mucy hc had saved from more than 900 ycl-s u thc interior.
 Cast down. but not crushed, broke. but not discouraged. Jim Cannon came back Co che scenes of former ycais. Che Bcrncrs Bay country where he resumed prospecting on Che ground hc had examined nearly SO years before Hc also located @ homestead across Che canal from Bcrucrs bay where hg has since made his home. Although hc has never found placer gold m paying quantities. he did discover and lo- gate what Is now Che property of Che EudI,ott Mining Company Inc having sold an interest to Che latter concern.
 Mir. Cannon lives alone very much alone having uo uc.ehbors within several miles. Ho ruIscs au thc vegetables he can usc and says that hundreds of bushels of wild strawberries as large as hcut eggs go to waste iu this vicinity every year. lie is coutcutcd and appor- cuuy happy and expects Co end h.s days at his present home.

said Mr.. Durbin I'VE are having
some trouble with parents and
friends of the men who have volun-
teered in getting them to forward the
QUESTIONABLE to them. The govern
ment wants to know all of the men
who have volunteered.
1.-The postal authorities have been
working in close cooperation with
the board in this matter but they do
not seem to understand that the men
who have volunteered should fill out
the QUESTIONABLE and as result
these questionnaires have been re-
turned Some Of the people say that
we are pulling 'boneheads' in this
matter but these men will no doubt
want to take out insurance and pro
vide for family allowances and in or
der to do this they will have to fill
out the blanks that are sent to them.
The most OF the missionaries will
be returned to those who have volun-

it a point to forward these to the
camp where the men are stationed
so that they can fill them out and re-
