WHALE IS STILL
 EVADING CAPTURE
 IN YUKON RIVER

NENANA, Alaska, December IF The Nenana News, in its issue of last Friday, gave it's readers an account of the presence of a whale in the Yukon river near Tanana and as such an event has probably never happened before, and hearing that attempts were made to capture the big fish, the News wired to Com missioner Dehn, of Panama, for fur ther particulars and received the following reply:
 Panama, Dec. g, 1918 |"Nenana News, Nenana
 'Open space in Yukon mile long between Panama and mission, Be- luga whale, about twelve feet long, been there since close of navigation It came up the Yukon ahead of the steamer Davis, in September It spouts a two-inch stream about four feet in air; several attempts made to capture, all have failed Can be seen most every day; some fine pictures taken. John Rice has pictures; several hundred people have seen the whale. DEHN."
 It may not be generally known, but nevertheless is fact, that this specie of whale come up the Yukon river very frequently during the open season, and is no uncommon sight to those who live on the low CT Yukon and to steamboatmen ply ing between St. Michael and Tan ana. They have been seen and have been captured on the Yukon river as far as Nulato, but have never been known to come up as far as Tapana before.
 Many Fairbanksans who took serv- ice with the Carlisle Packing com pany on the lower Yukon last sum mer saw a great many of these sea mammals while engaged in fish ing for the packing company and al- so witnessed their capture by the natives on the lower river.

In addition S1,472 older boys and girls have been sent to farms in the West where they have been pat on their feet and, becoming owners of ranches, have shown the.r appre citation in later ye4ls py taAAls or. phans into their own homes.
 It has been estimated that the cost of salvaging child from the streets, according to the plan of the Society is $50 which not only defrays the cost of placing the youngster in com fortable country homes but provides for supervision as long as it is nee essary. The Society keeps in touch with the boys or girls thus sent out and has on file thousands of grateful letters written by them after they have grown to manhood and woman hood.
 An instance of this gratitude was afforded in the report for 1918 of Edwin G. Merrill, treasurer of the Society, who acknowledged bequest of $5,000 from the estate of Dr. Mich ael A. Jordan, physician and edu cator of Logansport, Indiana. Dr Jordan many years ago was a friend less orphan in New York City and was befriended by the Childrens Aid Society. Many similar legacies from former wards have been left to the organization in the past.

two artists, Senate clerk, six rail road officials, eighteen journalists, 34 bankers, 19 physicians, 35 law. yers, 12. postmasters, contractors, 97 teachers, civil engineers, "and a vast number of other business and professional men, clerks, mechanics, farmers and their wives and others who have acquired property and filled positions of honor and trust"
 Among the American forces sent overseas, it is pointed out in the re port, are twelve commissioned off cers and about 1000 soldiers and sailors who were once wards of the Children's Aid Society. All were res cued from the streets or from asy lums and corrective institutions.
 The society, since it's foundation on January 9, 1855, has placed 32,- 031 orphans and deserted children in good homes in the country where many of them were later adopted.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS
Death of the Former Gov ernor Is Carried in Date Line of All Leading
 Papers.

Under a New York date line the Associated Press carried the follow ing story concerning the death Of former Gov. John c. Brady:
 America as a land of opportunity even for street waifs, orphans and foundlings was recalled by the re- cent death in Sitka, Alaska, of John c. Brady, former Governor of that Territory. and the fact that when a child young Brady had been taken from an. almshouse and placed in the custody of the Children's Aid Society of New York which educated him on the road to fame and fortune.
 Hundreds of other cases similar to ex-Governor Brady's it is said, could be cited by the organization which for more than half century has been taking homeless boys and girls off city streets and sending them to farms in the West where they grew up to be self-reliant, trust worthy and honored citizens. A cer- tain delicacy surrounds the publica- tion of the names of the more noted of these former waifs but, the report of the Children's Aid Society for 1913 shows the following harvest of "careers" up to date
 One Governor of State, one Gov ernor of Territory (John c. Grady of Alaska); two members of Con gress, two district attorneys, two sheriffs, two mayors, justice of the Supreme Court, Federal judge, four State judges, two college professors, seven high school principles. two school superintendents, an auditor general of State, nine members of State Legislatures, A clergymen, one cashier of life insurance company,

BUSINESS IS
 GOOD ALONG
 PACIFIC COAST
Report of the Twelfth Fed eraI District for the Out look Is Most En-
 couraging.

The report of the Twelfth Federal Reserve District for the Pacific Coast issued January 1st., gives an en- couraging outlook. The following is taken from it:
 ''The prospects for excellent crops in the district for the coming year are exceedingly bright. Except in a few sections the rainfall has been ample and far ahead Of that of a year ago; pastures are showing great improvement and an usually large acreage of Winter wheat has been sown. General mercantile business is somewhat quiet for this period of the year but not to such an extent as to evidence depression. This con dition is due both to slight but rather general recurrence of the influenza epidemic and to tendency to mark time awaiting postwar developments. The cancellation of Government con tracts has produced some temporar, confusion, but the process of read justment is progressing rapidly ant satisfactorily The labor situation remains without serious disturbance
 Interest rates continue firm at ( per cent. in industrial and 2 pei cent. in agricultural centers.
 November bank clearings for Is principal cities of this district totaled $1,177 7,563,000, an increase of 13 per cent. over the corresponding month year ago, Seattle showing the greatest gain with 47 per cent follow ed by Portland with 40 per cent and Tacoma with 36 per cent.
 Building permits for the same IS cities showed a decline of 10 per cent. from the total issued during November of last year. There is every evidence, however, that build ing operations will be resumed as rapidly as Government restrictions are removed.

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1919-12-12

In both Denmark and Sweden, and
to lesser degree In Norway, an ex-
odus from the army Is taking place.
Officers find 1t difficult to live on their
pay and fewer aspirants are present
ing themselves. There is a serious
shortage Of noncommissioned officers,
and the voluntary cadres prescribed
by law are becoming increasingly diff
cult to find. Labor conditions are so
good for men who want to work, and
pay is so high for manual labor that
the army ceases to present attrac-
tons.
In Sweden, Of II ,S61 volunteers
prescribed by law, 6,154 are lacking.
There are soldering jobs provided for
by the last financial budget, with no
volunteers to fill them. One volun-
teer detachment detailed to the Svea
regiment, consisted Of only ten at the
end of October.
The Scandinavian navies, too, are
considerably underofficered and vol
unteers are chary of presenting them
selves when they can make such good
wages elsewhere.
