SHELDON’S FEATS
ADE FAR-REACHING
To demonstrate that the Ford car is
a commercial factor in the trans
portation of freight and passengers
in the interior of Alaska, three Ford
cars are operated by the Sheldon,
Gibson & Ashton stage line on the
passenger run from Chitina to Fair
banks, 320 miles away. The best
time made on this trip was two and
one-half days, and the average is
from three and one-half to six days,
depending on the weather. When it
rains in Alaska the bottom falls out
of what they call roads, and the au
tomobile becomes a submarine.
The stage fare by a Ford is $100
per passenger, and forty pounds of
baggage is allowed. The fare on the
horse stage is $130 for the same trip,
but the expense enroute by horse
stage will average $75 per trip for
accommodations at the roadhousess,
as compared to an average of $26
roadhouse cost when the trip is made
by Ford. The saving in dollars and
cents, therefore, is about $80, and
the saving jn time about six to eight
days. This is certainly a Justifica
tion of the use of Fords for transpor
tation even where conditions are so
difficult.—Los Angeles Examiner.

LAWS
THE HAGUE, April 28—Dr. H. C.
Huberlch, former acting dean of the
law school of Leland Stanford, Jr.
University and nw practicing in the
various prize courts of Europe, has
coded the German civil laws enacted
for the occupied provinces of Belgium.
The new code is published in Dutch,
German, French and English. The
work of codification was rendered ex
tremely hard by the difficulty of ob
taining the necessary data, but through
his Berlin connections Dr. Huberlch
managed to secure the official texts
of the new laws. The ordinary or
dinances of Belgium regulating the
behavior of the people have not been
materially changed, but the commer
cial laws have been amended radi
cally so that the foreign and domes
tis commerce of the country can be
supervised strictly by the German au
thorities.

HORSE FLESH IN
GREAT DEMAND
COPENHAGEN, April 28—A large
ly increased demand for horse meat
to be sent to Germany is noted in the
Danish market*, and prices are high
er than ever known before.
This is a surprise to the horse
butchers, as it was supposed that
the demand for horse flesh would be
more than supplied by carcasses of
animals killed in battle. But, ac
cording to the Danish butchers, the
meat of horses killed in battle has
been generally found unfit for con
sumption, and the carcasses are now
burned or sold to soap manufacturers.

PETROGRAI), April 28—The battle raging between the
Augtro-German army and the Russian forces in the vicinity of
Styri in the Carpathian mountains, is still at its height and
shows no signs of cessation. Both combatants are renewing
their lines ns fast ns the fronts become exhausted or depleted.
The fifth day of tin* fight commenced this morning in the nar
row mountain defiles, which present little opportunity for car
rying out of maneuvers. The Austro-Gennan army at this
point is receiving exceedingly strong reinforcements.
HA\ RE, April 28—The Belgian offiieal stat ement issued
today asserts that the combined French and Belgian troops
have retaken Lizeme and have made considerable headway
in the direction of Hetzas, capturing many trenches from the
Germans. The Belgian artillery played an important part
in the recovery of the lost ground.
SANDBAGS USED
IN LARGE NUMBERS
LONDON, April 28—Sandbags by the
million is the latest call from the
front. They afe used not only as
parapets to trenches, but to make
houses for officers and men of the
artillery as well as for the guns and
telephone stations. The Infantry
trenches require about 100,000 bags
for each mile.
"When we advance,” writes one of
ficer, "we have no time to empty out
old sandbags. We need fresh ones,
made either of coarse linen or can
vas.”
