Hunters Witness
 Bull Moose Battle

w. D. Burden, C. V. Whitney and L. Lorter, big game hunters from New York, while hunting Moose on the peninsula last week, witnessed something seldom seen by hunters-two bull Moose bat. ting for mastery of the herd, says the Cordova Alaskan.
 One band of more than one hun dred Moose was sighted, and q short way off a band of thirty, led by a bull moose having 7o-inch spread of antlers approached. The hunters and guides noticed the bulls separate from their herds and enter the arena.
 After the usual preliminaries of snorts and threats they approached to within about twenty feet and charged with antlers lowered and and came together with terrific compact.
 The leader of the lhsfer herd was thrown back upon his launches with a deep gash in his forehead. His antagonist with true gallantry stood aloof and did not charge again. As the old bull sat there the herd sniffed around him dis daidfully and transferred their ad- ulation to the sturdy young cham pion. The old bull arose, accom- panied by a lone COW and staggered away. A bullet ended his career and the hunters are taking the horns back to the States.
 During the combat the hunters and guides stood in full view, but the animals seemed oblivious to all save the mastery of the glen.

been more severe since July than in any other summer and fal period in the last 20 years, ac- cording to the Bering Sea Natives. The supply of food on the Pribi. lofs has been running lower and lower ever since the middle of summer, while storm after storm has shut them off from assistance. Besides the 600 Natives, the is. lands have a white population of IA persons, who face the same condition as the tribesmen.
 The Saturn will have 12 passen. gers for the islands, the list in- cluded Dr. Eckhardt, physician for the Bureau of Fisheries. wife and child; Superintendent Allen of the bureau, and wife, and Storekeeper Scudder. also of the bureau, and wife.
 While the season now closing has been a severe one for whites and Natives, it was marked by the advent of the greatest seal herd ever seen on the islands since the Government took control of the seal industry. The census of the herd this year showed a total of 1,500,000 seals on the islands. more than double the number of any preceding census taken by the Government officers. The number of seals killed this year totals 35, 900. The great increase in the herd is attributed to the policies formulated and placed in effect by Dr. Hanna, scientist for the Bureau of Fisheries, who has spent years in the Pribilofs protecting the seals from indis- criminate killing. The skins of the seals killed this year are still on the island. If possible, the Saturn will bring them back with her

Live Stables

Two live sables from the Arc tic woods of Siberia-the first living specimens of the precious species ever brought across the Pacific-are aboard the auxiliary. powered schooner Kamchatka of the Hibbard-Swenson Company of Seattle, which is now plow- ing her way toward Cape Flat tery, homeward bound after trading all summer along the shores of Kamchatka and the Si- berian Arctic, says the Seattle Times.
 It is said that less than 100 persons in the United States have ever gazed on live sable, though the fur of the animal is worn by tens of thousands in this country. The two which the Kamchatka is bringing from Si- beria will probably be seen at the second of the Hibbard- Sven son Company's big fur sales.
 Webster defines the sable as "a carnivorous mammal (mus- tela zibelline) belonging to the the same genus as the martens. " Fur experts say it is the highest member of the cat family. Its soft and valuable fur is the pro- duct of environment, including climatic conditions. The Siberi- an sable, described as the most valuable of all sables, dwells in the most northerly forests of Asia, being a emi-Arctic deni- zen. It lives in the heavy tim Der and brush where the light is dim the greater part of the year. The less the light. the darker the skin, which explains why the sable killed in November, Decem- Der and January always have the dark skins so highly prized by the fair sex.
 There are no genuine sables on this continent, according to fur experts. The nearest approach is the Alaska marten which some times is referred to as a sable, but it is said to be only a related species.
 Olaf Swenson of the Hubbard. Swenson Company, headed the Kamchatka's trading expedition, which included the rounds of the company's stations and posts ir Kamchatka and the Siberian Arctic.

DOES YOUR BABY
SLEEP WELL AT NIGHTp

Baby's sleep is important. At night
baby sleeps about nine-tenths of the
time and should take daily nap until
about four years old. A quiet, peace
full sleep is a sign of perfect health
while disturbance of sleep is almost
always due to improper feeding,
which causes indigestion, constipa-
ton, sour stomach, gas, etc.
A baby specialist, while admitting
that good baby laxative should be
used in such cases, warns mothers
against the use of strong, irritating
drugs that cause inflammation of the
delicate membrane of baby's stom-
ach, and recommends "Baby Ease"
a perfected baby laxative by baby
specialist.
"Baby Ease" is excellent for all
disorders of the stomach and diges-
tion in babies and children. It is
easy-acting. non-irritating, does not
produce over-action or leave baby
constipated. 1t is a safe, harmless
and efficient baby laxative and cor
receive. If "Baby Ease" fails to
correct these troubles after a few
doses, take your baby to specialist
for thorough examination. "Baby
Ease" may be had from your drug
gist. adv

GOES TO PACIFIC
Important Salvation Ar
my Shifts Are An
nOunced


NEW YORK. Aug. 16--A far
reaching reorganization of the Sal
walton Army, designed to put it III
a position the better to meet the en-
larged demands that are everywhere
being made upon it since the war, has
just been announced by the executive
officials of the body here. The new
era upon which the Salvationists are
entering involves not only complete
redisposition of personnel but also a
redistricting of the entire country

poses.
Remaining as head of the Saliva
ton Army forces in the United States
is Commander Evangeline Bootl., who
has rendered Is years of service here.
She continues as commanding officer
of all the Army's forces in the I'm
tied States and Hawaii, but with en-
larged authority delegated t. her in
recognition of her successful direc-
ton of wartime efforts of the organ
ization both at home and abroad.

country has been divided into three
territories, an Eastern, Central and
Western, with headquarters respec-
lively in New York, Chicago and San
Francisco. Colonel William Peart,
who has long been chief secretary
in the United States, will leave New
York with a promotion to Commits
sioner and assume charge of the Ar
my's work in the Central territory.
To New York as ranking officer,
comes Commissioner Thomas Estill,
who heretofore has directed the Sal
vationist activities for the entire Yves
tern half of the country from Chi
cago. The commanding officer for
the Western territory will be Colonel
Adam Clifford, formerly in charge of
the work in New England, whose pro-
motion to the rank of Lieutenant
Commissioner will take effect with
his assumption of his new post.
Among the other important trans
fers of higher officers are the follow
ing:
Colonel William A. Mcintyre from
New York to Boston in command. of
the New England province.

LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE
LET THE STRONG MEN FILL THE
PLACE.

Our men who are best equipped for
legislative service seldom seek to be
our legislators. This is all wrong.
Such men have no more right, for
personal and private reasons, to
shrink from public duties. They
should read their duties large and go
forth to give the public the benefit
of their enlarged qualifications and
special efficiency. Incompetents are
often found in the places where our
strongest men should be. This penal
ICES the general public and should
not be.
Legislature is the highest and most
solemn place. No man should seek
this place who is not quite sure of
his equipment, and the voter should
never permit himself to cast a vote
for man for the legislature who, by
native strength and special prepare
ton, has not fitted himself for such
responsible work Three million
Georgians are vitality interested in
the type of men who compose our
legislature.
Will not some of our strong men
seek to serve US in the law-making
body of the state?
