ANOTHER ALASKAN
 FALLS IN BATTLE

George Broadhurst, who will be remembered by many Nenanaites, is reported to have been killed in action on the Western front on or about August 25th. The news of his death was received on the last mail by M. c. Edmunds, of the A. E. c. office force, in a letter from the brother of the dead man.
 Mir. Broadhurst, when last in this district, was engaged in prospecting on Little Eldorado creek in the Fair banks district, and he continued his operations on this creek during 1915, 16, and IT.
 Towards the latter part of Sep tember of last year, he left for the Outside, and on arrival at a Cana dian port enlisted in the Canadian army. He was attached to the 29th Battalion of infantry, which was sent for active service about a month after Broadhurst had joined.
 Since last March, Broadhurst was in continuous service in the trenches and while on duty in one of the trenches, he was instantly killed by an exploding shell.

HINDENBURc LINE NO BAR

LONDON.-The famous Hinden- burg line no longer bars the path of the advancing Allied forces, who are meeting with much success at every point attacked.
 Intricate Maze Stormed
 The combined British and Ameri- can forces stormed the last rem nants of the extraordinary maze of defense trenches between Cambrai and St. Quentin, and after some heavy fighting, forced the enemy to fall back; the Allied troops oc- cupying the captured positions.
 Enemy's Losses. =
 It is believed that the losses sus- tained by the enemy in the days fighting probably reached tens of thousands. The British and Ameri- can rifle fire was accurate and deadly, and the slaughter was very great. The machine guns and light artillery supporting the advance of the infantry also took terrible toll of the Hun.
 Open Country Reached. ........
 Penetrating beyond the scattered remnants of the much vaunted Hindenburg line, the Allies have reached open country,s where tanks can be used to great advantage.
 Bohain Threatened.
 The advancing Allied force is now threatening the important trans portation town of Bohain. The have advanced to a point within two miles of this most inn portant town.
 No More Hun Defenses.
 It is believed that the Germans have now run out of prepared de- lenses in the Cambrai-St. Quentin sector and that they will be forced to fight in the open until they reach a line immediately east of their own frontier.

THE FRENCH COMMENT

PARIS.-General Nalleterre, the Temps military critic, in comment ing on President Wilson's reply to the German peace note, says that the Germans are at the end of their strength and that an armistice with an obligation to evacuate invaded territory would allow the Germans to withdraw and reform their ranks in preparation for the moment when Berlin would denouce the conditions imposed by the Allies as impossible.

Waste of any kind of food is a crime which may lose the fight for us and the penalty will be worse than any punishment meted out by law for ordinary crimes against society. The trail of the Prussian army in Belgium and invaded France shows the nature of the punishment we may expect if we fail, through blind carelessness and waste of food to support our fighting men.
