SOLDIERS ONLY MAY INITIATE
 THEIR DISCHARGE
Commander White at Ft. Seward Makes Plain How Soldiers May Secure
 Their Release.

Requests for discharge from the Army must originate from the sol dier according to the following tele- gram received by Capt. J. J. Finne- gan from Commanding Officer White at Fort Seward yesterday:
 Ut would help considerable if the newspapers would publish the fact that the requests for discharge on grounds which make him eligible must originate with the soldier. Or ders, circulars, etc, covering these grounds are public to and not with held from soldiers. We cannot con sider requests from others than the soldiers The enlisted man knows his own mind best and he has ex- plained to him the grounds for elig- ibility. Telegrams for discharge of soldiers are filed. The best help that can be afforded is to secure employ ment for the soldier and to notify him-not us. Will you kindly ask local boards to answer questions af' fecting discharge in this manner"

FIVE SCHOONERS
 REACHED IN GALE

SEATTLE, Dec. 14.-In the worst hurricane that mariners have ever experienced in the North, five fish ing schooners were driven ashore at Unalaska at the same time that the whaler Halcyon, of Sea Wolf fame, was torn from her mOorings and wrecked, according to Capt. John Berntzen, master of the North Pa cific Sea Products Company's whal- ing steamer Elihu Thompson, who has just returned from the North, says the Post-Intelligencer With the exception of the Halcyon, none of the schooners were seriously damaged. They were lying at an chor at Unalaska for the Winter and had no men aboard when the hurricane came.
 The Elihu Thompson, precariously weighted down with ice from top mast to waterline, was forced to seek shelter in King Cove, during the hurricane. There were two an chors oux and engines going at full speed ahead, the steamer battled out the storm while the crew chopped away the armor of the ice. Running short of fuel, the Elihu Thompson had to run into Ketchikan and ar rived there with less than two tons of coal in her bunkers. She was nineteen days in making the voyage from Akutan to Tacoma, an unusu- ally long trip.

XMAS ROLL OF RED GROSS IS
 AT ALL STORES
Will Be Necessary for Ju- neau Residents to Get a Move on; No House
 to House Visits.

Members of the committee in charge of the Christmas Roll Call for the Red Cross decided this morn ing that because of the influenza epi- demic now raging in the city that the house to house canvas which was to close the drive would be dispensed with. Their plans to have repre- sentatives with a booth in each of the banks and also some of the busi- ness houses for the next three days were also set aside.
 The reports from the solicitors have not been encouraging and it is feared that Juneau will not maintain the reputation of former patriotic campaigns unless greater response is made.
 The Perseverance and Thane branches each report one hundred per cent. memberships and the same is true of the Alaska Juneau. The reports from the other branches of the chapter have also been satisfac tory and it is hoped that Juneau will be found 100 per cent,
 As the campaign, depends upon the lists distributed to the business houses, it is hoped the business people will get behind them and try and secure the membership of each person visiting their places of busi ness.

 Moved To Alaska
 The future pride of the American Navy began life in the State of Washington, but moved to Alaska early in life, where he enjoyed all the thrills of pioneering in the North Although he had been "out" to the States many times, he was in Nome when war was declared, and being of the positive and enthusiastic type of patriot, he immediately came to Seattle and enlisted in the Navy as third-class fireman, the lowest rating His splendid physique served him in good stead for the arduous work of stoking. His vessel arrived in December in Philadelphia and went up for repairs and armed with missive from a Seattle friend to a friend in Philadelphia, young McLain put his foot on the first round of the ladder of fame
 His handsome face and attractive personality immediately won him a circle of friends, and his interest in music added operatic singers to his coterie of friends and admirers. He met many naval officers, who hear ing of his mathematical turn of mind recommended him for a special train ing school at Columbia University New York Always an admirer of Christy's work, while he was in New York he had the opportunity to meet the well-known artist, who immediately declared him to be one of the handsomest men he had ever r,,at
