When the winter and the spring breakup followed bridges suffered collapse, washouts were frequent and the road operated no farther than East Fork and Big Hurrah.

 Walter DeLong, member of the A. E. C., who recently went outside to accept a position, writes back that
 Alaskans had better consider their
 steps well before coming outside as
 conditions in the States are more url- settled than they are in Alaska and
 not nearly so good as pictured, as it is much harder to make living. He states that it is folly to go outside without having a position engaged as work is not nearly so plentiful as in Alaska and wages only about half as good.
 Of importance to the quartz min ing industry in the Fairbanks dis trict were the returns recently made on the mill run of the 100 tons of ore from the Smith-McGlOne mine on St. Patrick creek. The amalgam returns were 150 ounces of gold with a valuation of $2,539.6S, an approxi-
 mate valuation of $25 per ton. The ledge is showing an increase of values as the shaft is sunk. The returns on 100 tons that were run through the mill some time ago came to
 $1873. The increase in value for the last run is about $7 per ton. The vein
 from which the ore was taken is two feet in width and shows increased
 valuations as depth is attained. The
 owners are highly optimistic over the future of the property.

Store Ads Are
 News

Some military news is suppressed by the censors at the war fronts be- cause of military considerations. Merchants have no reasons for SUD- pressing store news-except, possi- bly, that in their particular stores at particular time nothing of i'm portance has transpired."
 If you see it in a store ad-and it concerns something which you want to buy - it's important to you
 The store which is kept in the spotlight through its advertising is a store which can stand the spot light-and that is an important con- sideration for those who do business with it.

 Should we approach the entente when conditions in the interior of the empire leave no doubt of our immed fate collapse, it would be futile to be- lieve that the entente would grant con ditions unless they were equivalent to the complete annihilation of the centrai powers"

 There is danger of revolution which threatens the whole of Europn whicI is suIborted by England and reprs- sents her latest mode of warfare.
 Five sovereigns have been de. throned under conditions which give rise to serious thought.

TWO BANK OFFICERS
 KILLED BY ROBBERS

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-Two officers of the East Brooklyn Savings Bank were killed late today by two daring highwaymen, who escaped in a taxicab with $13,000 after shooting a detective who tried to stop them and holding a crowd at bay with their revolvers.
 The robbers chose the busiest time of day. Entering as if to make a de- posit one advanced to the paying tell er's window and thrust a revolver through the bars while his companion covered other persons in the bank.
 When Daniel C. Peal, teller, failed to come across" as ordered, he was shot through the heart. His slayer then covered the crowd while his companion thrust rolls of bills into a linen bag. When Henry w. Coons, assistant treasurer of the bank, ran forward, he was fatally shot.
 Then both robbers dashed for the street, and when Detective Albert Doody tried to block their path, he received a wound in the left arm, Outside the pair waved the crowd back with their revolvers and escaped in a taXicah

SPEED UP DRAFT MACHINERY
GENERAL cRoWDER SAYS WORK

Provost Marshal Hopes to Have Thir.
teen Million Men Classified
by January I.

Washington, Sept. 6. = General
Crowder, federal provost marshal, said
that the national selective service ma
chinery must speed up operations i'm
mediately to make it possible to get
men from the new 18 to As registra-
tion on the way in army cantonments
by the end of October.
Outlining changes in methods
adopted to that end, General Crowder
said questionnaires would 60 out to
registrants before the drawing has
been conducted to determine their
order of call, and that local boards
would be urged to commence classi-
fication Immediately. Questions re-
lating to the order of call and to the
time of drawing General Crowder set
aside in discussing the subject, leav-
ing only the intiznation that these
would be announced shortly.
General Gre wder is confident he will
be able to register and classify 49,
100000 men by Jan. 1, admittedly an
astounding undertaking. President
Wilson will shortly designate which
groups of registrants are to be classi-
fed first. 1t is expected the first group
will be those between 10 and 21, to
make speed. The last group to be
classified will probably be men be-
tween y and 45 inclusive.
