Alaskan Transport System Suppllea 15 Miles of Territory and Doea Ex* cellent Work. O. P. CJnnslad of I'nlrhnnks. Alaska, Is owner mnl operator of one of the “furthest north" railways in the world. His railroad “system" consists of 15 miles of wooden rails that stretch between the head of navigation on the Tolovnna river lo ihe rich placer mines above, some 75 miles overland from Kairbanks. The motive power of Ids railroad is a motor ear, and it tins done heroic work for the last two seasons In Imitating n genuine steam locomotive. Mr. Gaustad went to Alaska In the big rush of 'tkS. "1 have a sawmill half way between the Tolovnna placers and the head ef navigation on the river.” he said recently in I,os Angeles. “For two years 1 have operated (he railroad to haul logs to my mill, and from there to haul the saved lumber to the mines. The track Is 15 miles long and Is of wooden rails. The motor car Is, of course, equipped with flanged wheels, and hauls u little rtaln of three curs behind It. "In this fashion 1 have hauled loads as high us six tons. In addition to the lumber I haul all supplies from the head of navigation on the river to the mines, and get ftkl a ton for transporting them. Sometimes I make eight or nine trips a day. and this year the car covered over O.dOO miles in the course of the season. “The war brought great hardship to the gold miners of Alaska, for. awing to the depreciated value of the dollar, their gold Is worth but little more than half what it was five years ago. Consequently many of the mines are shut down, for the producers figure It Is not worth while to pay excessive labor costs to mine gold worth only half price. "Few people realize the Immense distances In Alnska. From my rnilrnnd, for example, it Is 1,000 mites to tidewater, hr way of the Yukon river. "'Ihe gasoline I hum in my car costs me S5 cents a gallon."—From the Pacific Commercial Advertiser. Queer War Money. Some very odd kinds of money were brought into circulation during Ihe war, owing to the scarcity of copper and nickel. Germany issued hundreds of millions of five-pfennig and tenpfennig Iron coins, the latter output of these pieces being coated with zinc to prevent rust. Iron coins were likewise minted by the governments of Sweden. Norway and Denmnrk. The Germans Issued one-pfennig pieces of aluminum, and In Algeria also aluminum coins of five centimes and ten centimes rnnde their appearance In circulation. Germany Issued muslin notes, and the local governments In that country and In Austria printed paper money of the smallest value ever known, representing one-fifth of a cent. Even more curious was the pasteboard money Issued In some of the enemyoccupied cities in Frnnce. It was In denominations up to live frnnes, and was of different colors and shapes— square, round, octagonal, oval and diamond shaped. This "card money" was guaranteed by the local municipality, and w as good only for use In transaction with merchants of the town where It was Issued.

NOT “MUCH" RIVER Historic Thames Not Imposing to Americans.

Captain Seth Bullock’s Humorous Anecdote Matched by Comment Made by New England Teacher on Famous Stream. When (’apt. Seth Itullock, pioneer roughiidee and long-time sheriff of South Dakota, was Invited by his friend, Theodore itoosevelt, to Join him in London, one of the reasons for the Invitation was that atler his strenuous African and Egyptian experiences and in the midst of Ids nicely less strenuous social and political ones In England, "Ihe colonel said he wanted some fellow over there that could help him laugh," so t’upiaiu Itullock related, "and 1 was elected. “Upon my arrival, seeing that Ihe colonel was being overworked by his ninny ottlclul engagements of state.'’ he continued in a conversation which Mr. Travers I >. Carman recently reported In the outlook, “I decided that he needed relaxation with some plain chap lie didn’t have to bother about, so 1 walked Idin over tbe Tbatnes river bridge. The river was .it extremely low tide, and knowing that the Thames was to mi Englishman what the Mississippi or the Hudson Is to an American, I waited until a particularly liniighty-looklng Englishman with a eatefully adjusted monocle approached, and, without* an Jul.llng to the colonel of what 1 Intended, asked If he could tell me the nuiiic of the creek. The pitying, pained mid bored way In which the Englishman replied. ‘That, my good fellow. Is our river Thames,’ served Its purpose, and kept ttie colonel chuckling nt intervals for the remninder of the day." A New England teacher traveling a few years ago with a party of tourists had the pleasure of hearing a coniment on the not-always-impresslve Thames, uttered in all sincerity by an American of primitive type from (lie land of far-stretching prairies and the vast Mississippi. He had Inherited a tort line, and to please his young bride had consented to a honeymoon trip abroad. Europe, he admitted, had in some respects exceeded his expecnitions. hut In others It was distinctly unsatisfactory. This river Thames, now— "Lizzie.” he demanded, turning to tils wife, “you sure this Is tbe Thames?” Lizzie was sure. "The Magna Ghana Thames?” he pursued Insistently. Lizzie’s guide hook was In her hand and she was sure of that. too. “Well,” mused her husband In a meditative drawl, “if us Americans hud signed the Declaration of Independence In Dan Skinner's medder, say, or some such handy .scotch of land along Skunk creek, mehhe. for the sake of history, we'd have named the creek over and turned It Into a river. Mehhe 'twould have been the river Skames, or something. I gue-s it must have happened that way with the llrltlshers. If It wa'n’t for history, Lizzie, I’d bet my hoots this creek | would he a creek!"

Oorlous Fatigue Test. A unique method has been discovered to measure just how tired one's body becomes after hours of work. A line is drawn neruss the forearm with a sharp point, not sharp enough to break the skin, but only to drive out the Idood and leave a straight white line on the skin. An observer holding a stop watch measures the time it takes for (he blood to rush back into tile skin and the white line to fade. The exact number of seconds and fraction of a second is recorded. This test is repealed say at intervals of one hour all day until the working hours are over. When these readings are plotted on paper a curve is drawn which tells at a glance Just how one’s encrg.i ebbs throughout the day . There is always a marked jump in the line after himh hour.— Hoys' Life.

No Birthday Anniversary. It Is possible for a baby horn this year never again to have a birthday. For this Is leap year, and a baby born on the right spot it the right time will almost certainly have no birthdays to keep. This has ycttmlly happened to a hahy who was born during the voyage from Yokohama to Sim Francisco on the hist day of February, 1004. It Is well known that In order to make the netnnl number of sunrises and sunsets experienced during a voyage round the world correspond with the calendar an extra day must lie InI tcrcnlntod or “thrown overboartl,” according to the direction traveled. This adjustment is made at the moment of crossing the one hundred and eightieth meridian, which runs to the west of l the midway point between .Inpan and California. j And a baby horn on February .10 ! must he content to do without birthi flays, unless he yr she should happen to he on a slmihrt- spot at the same time In some future lenp year, which would he a rather wild Improbability. —Manchester Guardian.

Donkey Gave ‘‘Ha-Ha.’’ I was strolling along a shady Inm* with the girl of my choice, (in the other side of the fence was a donkey In a pasture. I hardly noticed him. for I was trying to frame a proper proIMisal. Just then an automobile load of our acquaintances sped along the ] highway a short distance from us. and knowing they must have noticed ray I endearing manner toward my compan- ! Ion, I became embarrassed. However, | j managed to blurt out a proposal of marriage; w hereupon tbe donkey, standing there so dejectedly, suddenly woke up enough to lift hla bend and hrny, to the amusement of our friends, who were still near enough to hear It. To cap ihe climax, the girl also gave me the ha-ha.—Exchange. Began to Battla in April, 191>. American combat divisions were In battle in Europe for 200 days, from the twenty-fifth of April, 191S. when the first regular division, after long training In quiet sectors, entered an active sector on ttie Picardy front, until the signing of the armistice. During these 200 days they were engaged In 18 major operations, of which 11 were Joint enterprises with the French. British and Italians, and two were distinctly American.

Bagdad's Change of Dress. The war has wrought a wonderful change In the people of Kngdud, not the least of which Is their change of dress, according to the Times of India, vvhieh says: “In Hugdud today the young bloods are showing a desire to adopt European dress. We cannot Imagine why anyone should want to discard the picturesque Arab headdress in exchange for a billycock hat, but there Is no accounting for taste. Relief at getting rid of Turkish misrule hud presumably to he celebrated in some way or other, and the acquisition of a new suit of clothes, even If they are ready-mnde reach-me-downs. Is undoubtedly an event which would appeal to the nut of Hngdad who. like nuts all over the world, wants to be unlike his elder*.’’

Australia's Oil. While Australia is offering a bonus of flO.UOU for the discovery of commercial oil in the commonwealth, Mexico Is likely to absorb oil activities fur some time, according to the verdict of G. D. Meudell, a Victorian oil expert who hue been touring In vvesterii America. He found, he says, that the leading companies nre so heavily committed in Mexico that Australia's bonus Is not attractive. The British and Australlim government*, however, have agreed to test thoroughly former German New Guinea and Papua for ollbcurlug territory.
