GERMANY IS NOT VET WHIPPED,
 HE SAYS IN APPEAL TO BOND WORKERS.
RUST SUBSCRIBE TO LIMIT
Now Is the Time for Tremendous Ef" CIinch Victory.

All workers for the success of the Fourth Liberty Loan will be interest ed in the following statement given out at Washington by Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo:
 While enthusiastic reports of the progress of the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign are being received from many parts of the country. subscrip- tions filed with the incorporated banks and trust companies, and reported 10 the Treasury Department for the first four business days of the campaign, total only $626,506,O00.
 'In order that the full amount of six billion dollars may be taken, sub average rate of over $315, 5,000,000 for each of the 19 business days in the campaign, and yet up to date subscrip- tions are being received at only about One-half this necessary rate.
 Subscribe to Limit.
 While I am confident that the American people will, in the end, com plete the enormous task now before them, 1 desire to urge everyone not only to subscribe to the utmost of his ability, but to subscribe at the earli- est possible moment in order that sub scription may serve as an inspiration to others.
 ''The campaign is handicapped by two factors, the first being the unfor- tunate spread of influenza throughout many of the Eastern states, necessi- tating the canceling of public meet ings. parades and other demonstra- tons for the loan This condition makes 1t necessary for the people to come forward with their subscriptions without waiting to be called lpon.
 The second unfavorable factor, and by far the most serious one, is the feeling which is prevalent in some communities that the glorious news from the battle fronts reflects a mill tar,- situation which warrants a slack ening of our efforts here at home. Nothing could be further from the truth, and no more insidious propa- ganda than this could be circulated by the enemy. The time is ripe for the final stroke which shall lead to com plete victory and enduring peace, but that stroke cannot be delivered in g day or a week.
 Put on Steam.
 Germany is not yet crushed. She has millions of strong fighting men still on the battle lines, and with in- vasion of their own territory facing them they will fight even more des- perately than heretofore. The strength of our military efforts must be multi piled. Our fighting forces must feel behind them the steadying support of the American people. The supply of American arms and ammunition must not be interrupted Or diminished.
 Now is the time for speed-speed and the maximum of force at the pres ent time means an earlier return of our boys from the bloody battlefields; i; means the saving of American lives and the winning of glorious and con elusive victory"

 May Be Military Road
 On December 13, the Com .mittee on Military Affairs has ordered a meeting at Washington to be attended by representatives from Washington along the route to El Paso in which they are to give their reasons why the road should be taken over by the government and made mlllCafy rOaQ, ,Wnlcn Will aS- sure it of government aid should it be made.
 That the road is likely to be made military road is the fact that the road will pass through IT can- comments, camps, and av- iation fields. and seven other military establishments will have access to the road. On investigation it was found that over 90 per cent of the road from Washington to Little Rock has rural route boxes on it, which naturally makes it a post road.

Love In FIshdom.

This is no fish" story as the term Is usually referred to, but 1t is story about fish. Jim Foster, student of fish affairs, vouches for it's authenticity.
 Jim has a collection of big live fish in a small aquarium in a downtown restaurant and for F hours every night he watches them perform.
 "The fish are very affectlonate," de- clared the fish student. "They are good-tempered and kind toward one an- other. See those two largest fish? !? They are married guess, or else in love with each other. They always kiss each other good night and nibble affectlonately at each others mouths. The female of the two never puts her cold fins on the male ones back. And in the mornIng-say, it's amusing to watch them yawn and stretch them. selves."-Detroit Free Press.

GLASS STAINED BY X-RAYS
Experiments Have Shown These Pro- duce the Same Effect as the
 Light of the Sun.

+ is well known that glass exposed for long to sunlight acquires a violet tint. In very old houses the windows facing south are often distinctly vio- let. Experiments recently made in the laboratories of the General Electric company at Schenectady with X-rays prove that these can be used to dye glass in many colors, principally an amethyStiue violet and an amber vel low. but also green and bright yellow.
 These cOlOrs, according to Mir. Ro- Senthal. who conducted the experi- mentS. are due to notifications of the physical structure of the glass and not to chemical alterations. The color can be made to penetrate to any desired depth. from a mere surface tint to complete CoIoration of the entire sub stance. And the same method can be applied to rinting porcelain, enamel and precious stones.
 An interesting and important fact about this glass that has been colored by long exposure to N-rays Is that It becomes imperviOus to the radiations that have transformed It. Thus 1t can be used as a protection against the glare of the sun or the snow and against the N-rayS themselves.

A THOROUGH
 TEST
One To Convince the Most Skeptical
 SkagwaY Reader.

The test of time is the test that counts. !
 Doan's Kidney Pills have made their reputation by effective action.
 The following case is typical.
 skagway residents should be convinced.
 Testimony like this cannot be is- nored.
 Mrs. Ellen Watson, 4O5 E. Thir- tieth St., Tacoma, Wash, says; After an operation and being in the hospital three months my kidneys were weak. My back was lame and there was a heavy dull ache across my loins. My kidneys sometimes acted too frequently and sometimes not often enough and bladder tlouDle caused me a great deal of distress Doan's Kidney Pills re- lieved me of all that trouble"
 Statement given November 4, 1915.) ~
 On May 28, 1917 Mrs. Watson said: "I can never say enough in praise of Doan's Kidney Pills. They cured me of kidney complaint and the cure has lasted"

GERMAN DOMINANCE

Petrograd,-Oue Of the first re- quests put before the Russian dele gates at Brest-Lttovsk, according to the Petrograd newspapers, was 9 de- mand from Emperor William for the saSe- guarding of the former Russian Empress Alexandra Alix. The fol lowing account of this incident is taken from the Wogyn Courier:
 At the first meeting, after the representatives of the Bolsheviki government and tho delegates of the Russian army had assembled in the large room which had been de- voted to the meeting, General voh Hottma n with his staff came in. The two parties bowed to one an other and the Russians sat down at the table.
 General Hoffman remained rtanu- ing and addressed them. T speak to you" he said tr a stern voice. mot as the representative of the German army, nor of General Hin denburg. I speak to you as the representative of the four Central Powers. I request you therefore to stand while You hear what l have to say"
 The members of the Russian del egatIon looked at one another. there was a little hesitation, and they stood up.
 General von Hoffman, continued; Before proceeding to an negotia- tions respecting an armistice, think it necessity to make the fol- lowing statement. Within the area Of Russia, in circumstances threat ening her personal safety, Is living & most august relatives of my soy ereign master, the Emperor William namely Princess Alix, your Empress Alexandra, with all her family.
 "I demand that most decided measures be instantly taken for the safeguarding of her person and for her transfer to Germany under re liable guard. I request your i'm mediate reply"
 The members of the delegation did not know how to reply, and ask cd that they should be given time for consideration ,and for consulta- ton with Petrograd over their dt- rect wire.
 Scarcely had an interpreter translated these words than Gen. yon Hoffman said, with 9 great show Of temper, "I demand au in stant reply" and struck the table with his fist. 'sThis demand" he rontirued, lis In the nature of an .ultimatum. In the event of your not accepting 't, the negotiations will cease forthwith, and hostiities will be at one recommended by us" There remained nothing for the members of the Russian delegation fo do but to give their consent to the demands made.

The American lawyers greatest war

of which he is the president. at the open
ing Of the twenty-thiro annual conven-
tion at the Hotel Chelsea here today.
I'm the history Of this country there
has never been a period of greater need
for the proper shifting and molding of
public opinion than during the last twelve
months Never before has it been so i'm
perative that the people of America
think, feel and act as a unit.
In the talk of bringing about this re-
suit no one force is or has been more
potent than the great work of the Amer
kan lawyer. In making this statement
I do not overlook the great influence Of
the President of the country, but it is
well known that most men can he more

Many of us differed from William
Jennings Bryan in his early advocacy of
Government ownership of railroads and
national prohibition. yet his eloquence
stirred the nation and no doubt paved
the way for the Federal referendum to
the Constitution now before the States

for the Government control of railroads
as we now find it, with strong tendency
to future ownership.

William Watson Smith, Of Pitts
burgh, delivered an interesting address
upon ''technicalities." the purport Of
which was to show that the so-called
"technicalities" Of the law are not at
fault, nor justly matter of adverse
criticism. but a necessary incident to
this science is we'll as to any other
science. trade or occupation-just as
necessary as the technical rules of the
carpenter or bricklayer. He said the
decisions upon what is known as so
ciaf' legislation, hours of labor, child
labor, regulation of employment, en-
ployes' liability and similar enact
ments. are an example of quite recent
developments of the law.
Under conditions of a generation or
more ago such laws would have been
pronounced unconstitutional as an in
vasion of the rights of the individuals.
but under changed condition of today
they are held to be valid and necessary
to the public welfare.
Following the reading of the paper
there was discussion.
