PATENTED PROCESS REMOVES GUESSWORK
 FROM ROASTING
Automatic Control of Heat h. sures Exactness. Hills Bros. Coffee Has Matchless Flavor

There are many risks attached to roasting coffee by ordinary meth. ods. For a man must guess when the roast Is right. If he misses his guess, the flavor of the coffee usually suffers.
 Hills Bros. eliminated guesswork when they invented and patented Controlled Roasting-an automatic process that develops the fullest flavor in every berry of the blend !
 As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow .. a little at time so the unvarying flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by Controlled Roasting = the patented process that roasts evenly, continuously :. 0 Little at c time. Automatic con- trol of heat and flow of coffee does what ordinary methods often fail to do. Every pound is roasted to the same degree of perfection, and every pound has the same fine flavor.
 To preserve this delicious flavor, Hills Bros. pack their coffee in vacuum cans. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is removed and kept out of these cans. Ordinary, "air-tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. But Hills Bros. Coffee can't go stale! Order some today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trademark on the can.

Confers with Governor About Railroad-Deficit
 Reduced 50 Per Cent

Enroute to Washington to pre- sent his annual report to Secretary Ray Lyman Wilbur of the Interior Department on the condition of the Alaska Railroad, Col. O. F. Ohlson, General Manager of that line, conferred with Gov. George A. Parks here last Saturday even- ing.
 He told the Governor that the reads annual deficit, averaging about $1,o00,O0o up to the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 1880, was reduced to approximately s500,o0 for the past fiscal year This was effected by economies put into ef- feet at the beginning of the year.
 The increase in freight and pas senger rates played no part in the reduction. The new rates were not effective until May IS, and were in vogue but 45 days to the end of the period.
 What attitude Gel. Oh!son will take on the rates, as to the restor- ation of the old ones, was not an- nounced. Even if he should rec ommend re-establishment of the lower tariffs, the Department could not take action to that end with out the approval of the Howell Investigating Committee which or dered the raises, it is understood.

MILLENNIUM IS~ THEME OF TALK
 BY EVANGELIST
Lecture by Rev. H. L. Wood Is Illustrated by
 Colored Pictures

The Millennium" was the sub- ject discussed Sunday evening by Evangelist H. L. Wood at the Bible Chautauqua, in the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Building. The lecture was illustrated by many colored stereoptican pictures
 The word millennium" does not occur in the Bible; 1t being derived from two Latin words which mean, thousand and years, the speaker explained. And this thousand years of Bible time that Is termed, the millennium, Is mentioned six times and they are all in the 20th chap ter of Revelation. Every time 1t is mentioned, it is in connection with something which takes place during that time. The speaker called at- tention to everyone of the events and then by further Bible study located the beginning and close of the events.
 From the viewpoint of prophecy, the righteous, both the translated ones and those who had been dead, reign with Christ during the thous- an dyears: and during the same period the wicked are all dead Then all that was necessary was to locate the time when the wicked are all to be slain and the right eous to be removed to where Christ is, the Evangelist pointed out.

 The convention came to an end a few minutes before 6 o'clock Saturday afternoon. All the dele gates left Petersburg Sunday morn- ing for their respective homes.
 Only One Dispute
 During the. sessions, which lasted two days, only one serious debate occurred. This grew out of reso- lution presented by the Ketchikan delegation which sought to bind irrevocably the delegates to the Territorial Convention at Fairbanks next January against nominating or endorsing candidates for a Ter ritorial ticket.
 The delegations from the north ern end of the Division argued against the resolution as being to sweeping and likely to result in an Oi SdlIAdIlOii oPiit. AAACy SOAeCAAHCA that the delegates should not be sent to the Territorial meeting with their hands locked, and of- fered a modified resolution to that end. The latter, which was adopt ed by vote of 55 to A, instructed the First Division delegation to vote against Territorial nomina- tions and use its influence to pre- vent such a procedure, but left the final decision in it's hands if the convention should override its posi- tion.
 Guests at Banquet
 The Petersburg Commercial Club was host to the delegates at a banquet last Saturday evening They were formally welcomed by Mayor Earl N. Dinner and A. B. Holt, Secretary of the Club, who acted as toaStmaster.

CANDHI GOES TO RECEPTI0N;
 GETS EYEFULL

LONDON, Nov. 23. - Mahatma Gandhi went to a reception at the home of Lady Astor last Saturday night. Gowns worn by the women guests caused him to lower his eyes in shame.
 Even in tropical India where the temperature often reaches 110 de- grees, the women never dream of appearing on the streets half dress ed as they do in London" said the Mahatma.
 Western women are mad with their own vanity and worship the God of Fashion. It is a sacrilege for them to allow beauty doctors to mar the faces God has given them, pluck their eyebrows and de- stroy their features" concluded Gandhi.
