Mechanical arrangement similar in
many respects to that of an automo-
bile is the distinguishing feature of
new form of gasoline-driyen interur-
ban car described in Popular Me-
chanics Magazine. Though the body,
seating 30 passengers, Is like that of a
standard modern street car, there Is a
long hood extending In front, ia which
the 50-horsepower engine is mounted.
An auto-type gear shift is provided.
and shaft transmits the power 10
tine rear wheels. Air brakes. electric
lights, and hot water heating plant

The car makes round trip of 40
miles in little more than two and
one-half hours. consuming about five
and one-half gallons of gasoline, or
one gallon to seven miles.

The United States Department OF
Agriculture has for many years insist
ed that the farmers problem is not so
much to grow greater crops as II Is TO
market those crops az profit.
A great deal of money Is being spent
upon cooperative effort and the stand
ardization of goods. Market news has
been collected and disseminated Mt

the direct marketing from the country
has not proven to be the success
hoped.
One az the main reasons is that
when the weather Is bad aud produce
becomes scarce In the markets the
price goes up. but the farmer has been
powerless to supply this demand and
when the roads again become passable
other farmers were Cutting those mar
kets and In consequence, instead of

When this tube inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result. Unless the inflammation
can be reduced and this tube to its nor

BOARDING HOUSE
 ALMOST TOTAL.
 LOSS BY FIRE
Overloaded Stove on Second Floor Ignites Front
 Street Building.

The building known as the Sawmill Boarding House, situated near the Juneau Lumber Company's mill on lower Front Street, is almost q total loss from flames and water caused by a fire that started there at P: B this afternoon. According to mem bers of the fire department, the blaze started from an overloaded stove in the second story of the building.
 The fire was declared 10 have been d most stubborn one and at one time four streams of water were playing upon the flames Upon the arrival of the department fire had broken through the roof, but was afterwards kept confined in the building, keep ing down the danger of spreading to adjoining property Holes were cut in the roof to allow the streams to get more directly upon the flames and additional hose sent for and the blaze literally drowned out
 The building is Q story and a half one, more than 70 feet long, and is owned by Henry Shattuck of Seattle. It was insured for $500, but this amount, it is said, will not cover the loss.
 George Murikana, a Japanese, oper- ated a boarding and rooming house in the building and there were quite a number of roomers. They are mostly natives and Filipinos. They dashed through the smoke and flames to the second story and res cued their blanket rolls.

 The Unalga received word to search for the boat while lying at Unalaska and put to sea searching for the boat or wreckage' between that place and Juneau. At the same time the Snohomish searched the shore line going west. Neither boat found any trace of the missing yes sel
 The Unaiga has been in Alaska waters since April and is now going to Seattle. Coal will be taken on board the boat here and the vessel will leave here Sunday for the South.
 The first part of the year was spent by the Uaalga cruising near Unimak Pass to assist vessels that might be in distress there and in doing general coast guard work The boat then went to the Pribilofs and then to Bristol Bay.
 Captain Brockway is an U. S. Com missioner and held court at outlying points. A trip was made to the Der ing Sea and the vessel stayed there until the Victoria left on her last trip from Nome. The Victoria was pulled off the rocks at one time after having grounded.
 Captain Brockway reported today that a series of terrific wind storms had been encountered ever since leaving Unalaska and that the trip was hard one.
 Besides the regular crew there are several passengers on board, includ- ing A. II. Proctor, superintendent of the Priblof Islands; Hector Mckenzie with a party of eight men who have been Investigating water power sites for the navy at Dutch Harbor; A. H Smith, an oil stampeder from Poin- Barrow. and MT. O'Kelly, Hud- sons Bay factor from the Arctic Ocean.
