a considerable time later second
torpedo struck her, followed by two
more. BY this time several trawlers
and patrol boats were nearby and the
work Of embarkation was begun. 1t was
possible to take off nearly all the
crew except men in the stockholds and
others who had been injured by the

British Naval Success Increasin,.

London, March 6.-The introduction
of the naval estimates in the house
OF common today was made the occa-
sion by Sir Eric Campbell Geddes.
first lord Of the admiralty, for a
lengthy speech In which he summed
up the naval situation during the past
year. (Copious extracts of the speech
were received by gable from London
Yesterday
"On the whole naval warfare during
the past year has proceeded increas-
ingly in our favor" said Sir Eric. "It
has consisted chiefly Of efforts to test
the strength OF the enemy's subma-
rines. There have been occasional in
terludes such as the Exit of the Goe-
ben and the Breslau and the recent
raid by. enemy destroyers on a Dover
patrol. Occasional raids on our con-
voys on the English coast are a natur-
al outcome Of the blockaded enemy
trying to harrass the blocking fleet.
The exit OF the Goeben and the
Breslau Cfrom the Dardenelles) was a
raid Of a similar character The
Goeben was relocated and while re-
ports justify the believe lhat she was
damaged, we must consider her for the
present still dangerous enemy weap-

serious blow to the enemy.

The Var Council announces that the campaign to raise the second war loan relief fund of $1oo, GOO, GOO will be postponed until the week of May goth. It was the original intention to begin rais- ing this money for Red Cross work on May 9th, but fear that it might detract even slightly from the forthcoming Liberty Loan cam paign prompted the War Council to postpone the date for two weeks. This action, therefore fixes the date of the Second War Fund campaign eleven months after the first which was carried on during the week of June 18th, 1917.

war broke out. He had been an officer in the Canadian militia for a number of years, and when war was declared offered his service to the Minister of Militia. He was given the rank of ljeutenant-colonel, and asked to recruit a battalion in his native Province. He succeeded in recruiting a full battalion, and after a period of training at Val cartier, Que, went overseas with his men. Owing to the large num- Der of experienced officers of high rank in England without command, Colonel Campbell willingly reverted to the rank of captain in order to get to the front. This he seems likely to do in the near future. He is we'll known to a number of the Victoria teaching staff, and this information will doubtless prove of special interest to such.
 In his letter Capt. Campbell re- fers to Harold,' Hiram and Josiah. The Harold spoken of is son of Principal J. M. Camp bell, of North Ward School, who left here with the Western Univer- sites Battalion. Josiah, IS Captain Campbells eldest brother, whose three sons enlisted at the beginning of the war; while Hiram" is still another brother living in Wrangell, Alaska, and whose two sons have recently en- listed in the U. $. army. This makes seven representatives ot the family in khaki.
 Nobody can say that the Camp bell family have been slackers in this fght," notes the Captain with just pride, in the course ot his letter.

Easter Lectures

St. Philips church, April 2.
 The second of the Easter lec- lures will have for it's theme, "The Easter Doubts" Had the disciples been looking for a resurrection, the skeptic might have said that they saw their Master" but it was only an hallucination. They really did not.
 The facts are, however, that they were all doubters, and only preached the Resurrection after they were convinced of it's truth.

A few cases of measles have developed in Wrangell recently and the school board is taking steps to prevent an epidemic of the disease. To that end, the physicians of Wrangell have been consulted and the co. operation of the teachers secured. Any child who shows any of the early symptoms of the malady will be sent home from school at once. If the parents are doubtful as to the justice of any particular case, doctors certificate that the child is free from any indication of the disease is sufficient to re- admit the child to school. These precautions are deemed necessary in order that an epidemic may be avoided, and it is hoped that the parents will cooperate to the fullest extent. An epidemic may become both dangerous and cost ly, and can be avoided if care is exercised from the beginning. All new cases should be reported to the proper authorities im- madiatelv

CANADIANS IN ENGLISH
 TRAINING CAMPS ARE
 LONGING FOR FRANCE
Capt. R. H. Campbell. Brother of H. D. Campbell. Writes
 From Surrey, England
From the Victoria (B. e. Daily colonist

Mir. J. M. Campbell, principal of North Ward School, has just received from his brother, Capt. R. H. Campbell, of the Io4th Canadian Infantry Brigade, Wit ley Camp, Surrey, England, let ter which gives quite an interesting description of the camp life at Witiey.
 We have been in this camp for nearly fifteen months. Our train ing has been quite strenuous and very thorough, and the whole divi- sion is splendidly trained and very efficient. It will certainly give a good account of itself when it gets into the fight.
 This camp is one of the best, if not the very best, in England. In spite of some untoward circum- stances, 1 have enjoyed every day of my long stay here. There is something exhilarating in the in- eXorable discipline, in the precision and energy of the work and in the comradeship of full-blooded men. We march to music, sometimes we eat and drink 10 music In the gray dawn as one goes through the pine woods towards the parade ground the bugles everywhere are sounding out their calls, and when at last the advance goes the whole camp thrObs with the music of nearly a score of bands as each battalion marches on its markers.
 Thus the day begins with every one keyed up to concert pitch, and until the bugles and trumpets sound last post and lights out everything goes with a swing and exactly on time. We, of course, have all been impatient to get 10 France, and have felt at times a bit led up with the long training; but we have been Very well and comfortable, and as everybody here knows quite we'll that our long de- lay in getting to the front is not due to any fault in us Or in our training, but to causes over which we have absolutely no control, all are fairly contented and happy. The order to move, however, when 1t comes, will be received with up- roarous welcome. l can just im- agine hear the cheering start, and go rolling in mighty pillows of sound from one side of this great camp to the other. The men come over here tor a certain purpose, and they will never be quite satis- fled till they have done their bit. l feel sure they will not have long 10 wait, but will get all the fighting that is good for them before many moons have passed

mdiCH Z9. lplo. Council of National Defense,
 Washington, D. C.
 Gentlemen:
 At a meeting of ketchikan Divi- sion Alaska Territorial Council of Defense held on March g, 1GI8, the following preamble and resolu- tlons were adopted:
 Whereas, transportation ia ili- ties between Alaska and the St .tej are and have been tor many mouths inadequate 10 the needs of the ish- ing industry, particularly in Sonth- eastern Alaska, thereby retarding the assembling and market ting of food fish, there not being a ,s,rfi. cient number and adequate tom age ot American vessels to handle the business, of both canned salmon stHu ilSSi hSu SOItutOullu, dS we'll as cannery material and supplies northbound; and
 Whereas. the Canadian Pacific and Grand Trunk Pacific Railways are operating and maintaining an all-year steamship p service between Southeastern Alaska and Puget Sound ports, calling enroute at Prince Rupert and Vancouver, B. C., arriving at and departing from our ports with only part car go northbound and practically no cargo southbound, and could there fore, materially assist in relieving the freight congestion at any and all seasons of the year and thus expedite the movement ot food fish from Alaska to the consurner; therefore. be 1t
 Resolved by ketchikan Division. Alaska Territorial Council of De- fense that the National Council of Defense be requested to urge upon the Congress of the United States the necessity tor the immediate elimil.ati of the provlso except- ing Alaska from the operation of the Act of Congress (H. R. 6I75) giving the United States Shipping Board power to permit vessels of foreign registry to engage in coast wise trade: that to do so during the period of the war would greatly increase the available supply of food fish, and more frequent ser- vice would result Tn the fish reach. ing the consumer m better condi. ton and conseqsently entail less waste. Be it further
 Resolved that this appeal is made solely in the interest of food production and conservation, and not in the interest of any transpor- tation company whatsoever; that we fully realize the effect such hlegis- lation might have on the American merchant marine in time of peace, but it is condition and not q theory" that confrOnts the nation today, making it imperative that a maximum of food be produced and marketed with the least possible expense, and We believe a com pliance with this request would be conclusive to such result.
 Respectfully submitted.
