■HUNCH COURT
RE-OPENED IN ALSACE
R. C. W. Lett, colonization agent
for the G.T.P., has returned from a
trip to Prince Rupert and points in
the immediate coast neighborhood,
says the Winnipeg Free Press. Mr
Lett speaks of the fish Industry as
beginning to reach substantial pro;
portions. Already large shipments
are being made Into the United
Stales. Alaskan fish, which hitherto
was shipped via Vancouver, is now
being sent east by the carload from
Prince Rupert, the route being
shorter by the best part of a day.
Mr. Lett stated that the industry
was developing with great rapidity
and the fishing grounds teemed with
the very best, of fish, halibut, sole.
salmon and black cod being found in
great quantities. The difficulty at
present was thai there was no market or markets large enough to take
the entire output, but the Increase
in (he markets In ihe United States
as well as the fact thai western
Canadian points were beginning to
realize that Ihe lish industry would
have some effect upon the cosl of
food, lead to the belief that greater
markets will be found.
The dry docks and tbe G.T.P. terminals are on a fair way to rapid
completion and the dry docks especially came in for Mr. Lett's commendation. They are built of steel
and concrete and repairs to ships oi
any size in the Pnclllc trade can be
bundled. There is also every facility
for Shipbuilding and it Is expected
thai a ship a year will be turned out

Ceremonial Which Was DramaticTn

Salmon Pack Was Good For
The Year
Seattle, Jan. 2.—The salmon pack for Alaska, Paget Sound, British Columbia, the Columbia River and other Northwestern rivers
Is estimated at 6,310,000. The Alaska pack was the largest on
§ record, being 4,000,000 cases.
British Battleship Was

H.M.S, Formidable Rendered Useless
In English Channel-About a Third
Of The Crew Reported To Have
Been Saved From The Warship
The first French court in the re-
sace, was installed a few days before
conquered territory at Thann, Alsace, was installed a few days before
Chris!mas with ceremonial that was
dramatic in irs simplicity. Tbe courtroom was crowded with girls in picturesque Alsatian costumes, and old
men who had waited forty odd years
for the day when France-should return to Alsace.
The courtroom was silent until
the guard of honor of dragoons, posted back of the dais, drow their
sabres at the word of command from
their officers. Another officer then entered the room and advanced to the
judge's desk and in solemn (ones
said:
"In the name of the French people" the low sobbing of an old Al-
sation unable to restrain his emotion Interrupted tlie officer, but after
a short pause he continued—"and by
virtue of the Instructions of tbe general commanding (he Firs! Army, we
declare .Monsieur—Judge at Thann.
with jurisdiction," etc.
Thai was all. The young people
rushed cheering out Into the street,
while the old men remained for a
wlille in their places III silent co-
star.*. ,,
I^ondon, Jan. 2.—The battleship
Formidable was sunk yesterday
morning in the English Channel by
a submarine.
Reports say that the battleship
Formidable was struck fore and aft
by torpedoes from a submarine. She
sank almost immediately. The rescued were picked up by a trawler
and others may be saved, as there
were several fishing boats near.
Another Cutter Arrives.
Another cutter from the British
battleship Formidable has reached
Lyme-Regis in Dorsetshire with fifty
men, bringing the total of the saved
lo 201 men.
When the cutter left the Formidable had sixty more men aboard but
all were uninjured except by exposure, all having been in the
boat some twenty hours in a violent
storm.

The Greatest Event in

When the great Armed
one big ships, carrying
thousand of Canada's sons, and escorted by nineteen jgreal British
battleships, weighed am nor and
sailed down the St. Lawrence, carrying our men to aid ii righting the
Empire's bat lies, few people realized all it meant to Canada. It has
been tbe talk of the whole world.
Statesmen and newspapers tbe world
over commented on it and cried
"Bravo, Canada." The Illustrated
London News said the arrival was
'an event unparalleled since William
the Conqueror." Ii was truly a magnificent spectacle to see this great
fleet setting sail, a sight never before seen on Canadian shores. News
of the departure was censored and
kept so secret that few indeed were
on the scene to see the big ships
weigh anchor on the Gaspe Coast.
This spectacle would have been lost
to the people of Canada had not the
Family Herald and Star of Montreal
had their staff photographers there
to reproduce it. Their photos of the
great flotilla are the best piece of
photographic work in (he history of
the art. They secured a panoramic
view showing miles and miles of the
great troopships and battleships as
they swung into line on the way to
the Atlantic. In this picture the
Family Herald and Weekly Star certainly possess a treasure, It will be
the greatest Canadian souvenir of
the War. It is 13 1-2 inches deep by
■HI inches In length. It is reserved
exclusively for Family Herald and
Star subscribers, and all who become subscribers for 1915. The picture will be sent free to anyone
sending one dollar for a year's subscription in thai greal paper. The
demand is already enormous, and
every home In Canada will wanl It.
It will be Canada's greal memento,
and years hence
