75,00O Frenchmen
 Killed in War By
 Their Own Guns

Because of a false concep- ti on of offensive principles, by lack of liaison between artillery and infantry, and by the irrational use of heavy ar tillery, 75,000 Frenchmen were killed in the war by their own artillery" !" This is the astounding revelation made by General Etine Percin, once the com mander of a French army corps, in his Ia test book, ''The Massacre of Our h. fantry."
 Referring to the cost of munitions in the war and in order to give what he calls an example of the waste shown during battles, General Percin re- marks; "As result of waste of am- munition from August 2 1914, to Mo- vember II, 1918, we spent 26,000, 900. GOO francs in munitions, or one-seEenth of our total war expenses. ''

The Last Frontier.
Sc ward Gate way.

Alaska, the wonderland, the last frontier of America, is rapidly passing the adolescence stage and emerging into the long, pants period. The old timers who packed their belongings in on sled and, pulling it by the neck, journeyed many hundreds of miles into the Interior, enduring cold, fatigue and starvation for the purpose of inves- tigating some favorite creek, would not know the Alaska of today.
 With the building of the Valdez Fairbanks trail and it's adaptation by autos, it was believed the last word in luxury had been reached. The transi- tion from dog sled to stage and from stage to auto occupied about ten years. The old-timer paid his hundred dollars for passage from Fairbanks to the coast, the trip taking from three to four days, owing to the depths of the glacier streams and the condition of the roadbed
 @The building sof the Alaska railroad changed all this, Instead of four-day trip, stopping at roadhouses over night and paying from S4 to S6 per day for meals and bed. the old-timer can now step aboard the train at Seward and ce whisked to Fairbanks in from 20 to 80 hours, riding the cushions, and enjoy ing luxurious meals en route, without stopping to ''bile the kettle" And the fare is about one-fourth what4i itecost in the old days. Before the railroad came Fairbanks was a camp" dependent upon local trade to market herapro- ducts, and storing vast stocks to last through the winter until the opening of navigation Ithe next year. Today Fairbanks is the interior metropolis, with the towns along the Government railway at her feet Her merchants can order stocks as they are needed, with the assurance that they twill be safely landed when guaranteed.
 Thirty-six hours from the coast, six hundred miles, the change is miracu- lous and links the past with the pres -ent. the present to the future, to the further glory and upbuilding of this great Northern Empire. The railroad has carried the sea to Fairbanks. and has inseparably linked Seward. An chorage and coastal towns with the great interior by bands of steel.

EMPSEY WILL
FIGHT WILLS
Negro Pugilist's Challenge
Is Accepted by Champion;
Negotiations on Way

NEW YORK, June 29.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press First steps in nego-
tiations, which it is believed event
tually will bring Jack Dempsey and
Harry Wills, negro pugilist into the
ring for a titular match for the heavy
weight crown, was taken today when
Dempsey formally accepted Wills
challenge.
tbs acceptance was announced by
the New York boxing commission.
This body officially acknowledged
ceipt of the challenge and deposit of
$4,000 and later issued a proclamation
that unless Dempsey before July ac-
cepted under reasonable conditions,
his title would be declared forfeited
as far as New York state boxing ter
ritory was involved. In accepting the
challenge Dempsey, through his man
ager Jack Kerns, requested that con-
ference between the principals be held
soon, so that conditions governing the
proposed bout might be considered.
1t is understood the managers of the
two heavyweights will meet and ar
range the necessary preliminary de-
tails within the next week or ten days
The secretary of the boxing commits
sion, in issuing the formal statement
said that if the match did not appeal
to promoters and there were no bids
for such contest, Dempsey, having full
filled his part of the contract, by ac-
cepting the challenge, would remain
in possession of the title in the state.
If, however, the boxers should refuse
what the boxing commission consid-
cred a reasonable offer, both would
lose their stains
Manager Mullis, speaking for Wills,
said he desired a bout before fall but
such appeared improbable Tex Rick
ard, the promoter from whom, it is
understood both dleavyweights expect
an offer, stated emphatically, he would
not be interested in contest before
next summer.
''It is entirely too late" he said,. Ito
attempt to stage a bout of this cali
bre this year.
"In order to meet the terms of
Dempsey and Wills, it would ben nee
essary to hold match in the open
air and make numerous arrangements
for handling a huge crowd of spelta-
tors. AS a result of my experiences
in the Johnson Jeffries, Dempsey Will
ard and Dempsey Carpenter bouts.
1 know it would take fully six months
properly to prepare the arena and
boxers for this contest.
! would not consider bidding for
the match unless the boxers would
agree to delay their meeting until
next summer"
It is also doubtful whether the pu-
gilists actually expect to meet inside
of twelve months.
