 FUTURE BENEFIT OF CITY

DOUGLAS. Jan. 28.-At the last nights meeting of the City Council, the main work of the evening was the establishment of the city harbor lines after hearing the report of the committee which has been at work on the matter for several weeks.
 The lines are drawn to conform with the city limits as nearly as possible and according to the survey of the Government engineers for the townsite of Douglas. The lines extend to deep water and hereafter there will be no more liklihood of having to purchase the interests of those who claim priority rights on the waterfront belonging to the city
 All monthly claims for January were ordered paid and the Council adjourned to meet at a call meeting sometime in February.

HERRING ARE FOUND IN THE ARCTIC
 BY STEFANSSOr
Canadian Authorities Are Busy Classifying the Specimen Brought Back by
 Explorer.

OTTAWA, Jan. 1.-The discovery
 of the Stefansson expedition of i'm
 mense herring fisheries in the Far
 Northern waters of Canada, is an
 nounced in a statement which was
 issued through the Naval Depart
 ment today. The statement asserts
 that abundance of herring had been
 found along the Arctic Coast of Can ada, East and West of the mouth of the Mackenzie river, and that this will have an important bearing on Canadian Northwest fisheries. If the difficulties of transportation can be overcome the herring fisheries
 may develop rapidly
 The department states, that it is too early to decide wjth care and definiteness or results which the Stefansson expedition has accom- plished for the Canadian government. Between 40 and 90 scientific spec ialists have been busy for months 1 studying the extensive collections of Arctic fish marine life, as well as minerals, etc, of which many tons | of specimens have reached Ottawa. It is considered probable by the of ficers of the department, the Stef- I ansson Expedition reveals other big J fisherv resources, possibly including supplies of salmon, like those of the great Pacific rivers, the fishing in
 dustries of Canadian Northwest Arc
 tic waters will figure largely before years.

WAS UP TO BRITISH
 TO GIVE HOT MEALS
 TO GERMAN PRISONERS

LONDON, Jan. 28.-A story of propaganda that proved boone rang has reached London from France. In the closing stages of the war when the Germans were surrendering in large numbers, a British intelligence officer was greeted by a gronp of prisoners with cries of Hot meal! Hot meal!"
 The officer showed surprise, but the Germans continued to shout Hot neal" and rub their stom- achs
 Nothing doing in hot meals" the officer replied
 Thereupon the Germans pulled out leaflets carefully hidden away in their clothes, and cried. Ticket for hot meaI-ticket!"
 The leaflets. apparently distrib. uted from the air, informed Fritz that if he came in and surrendered he would get hot meal.
 In brief. military language the British officer told the Germans that he knew nothing of the origin of the leaflets and that there must be mistake, but the Germans came back with:
 "Englishmen always keep their word. Hot meaIl Coupon for hot meal!"
 According to the story. nothing remained for that British division but to set to work at once and pre- pare hot food for the hungry pris- eners streaming in. thereby consid- erably slowing up the advance at tbat Roipt ,pf. the line.
