LONDON, Feb. 1.—The batteries protecting Dover opened five tonight in what Is thought to have been another German raid, but whether by Zeppelins or submarines, or both, has not been ascertained. An early report from Dover says that five hostile airships were observed over that town, while a later report announced that they had beeu driven off by the gunfire of the forts. Another Dover message declared that the fire had been directed on German submarines. As a consequence the war department Instructed the London police to mal,J all pre'-erations for an air raid. The city was soon in darkness and even-where He news spread that a zeppelln fleet was ono its way to the metropolis. Not Seen Elsewhere. Telephone calls to Harwich, Cromer, Southend, Kings Lynn, Yarmouth and other points elicited the reply that no air' raiders had heen seen. Tho report of submarines at Dover seemed to explain the gunfire thero but the official press bureau issued no statement. Tho precautions ta,ken in London indicated the fact that virtually all special constables under tho regulations were required to report at the various stations, even tltose attending the theatres whero ln some cases the audiences were greatly depleted. At several of the railway stations the lights were extinguished and trains passing over bridges did so *ln darkness. Broke War News Monotony. The special orders issued by the police shortly before 8 o'clock tonight caused blinds to bo drawn down all over London. Parts of tiie city of London waited for more than two hours with blinds drawn but nothing happened. Inquiries elicited from the police that orders to prepare for an alr raid had been issued by the war office but whether because a craft had really boen sighted or as a rehearsal it wns impossible to ascertain. This flurry served to break Ihe monotony of news from tho battle- front, where none of the armies, either in the east or tiie west, has been able to deliver a serious blow.

Other cross-channel services are still running and it la considered there is no great danger for swift vessels. There seemingly was no occasion for alarm in London over a zeppelin raid and the authorities are unable to discover how the rumors arose that one was Imminent. ISngHsh papers comment bitterly on Germany's methods of waging war and discuss what methods Great Britain should adopt In reply. Discuss Reprisals. The Post advocates the declaration of a strict blockade of tho German coast, contending that such a step is practicable. Regarding the difficulties of dealing with neutral vessels bound for Germany the paper says: "Diplomacy exists for the removal of such difficulties." The sailing of the steamer Dacia has reopened newspaper discussion of her status. The Chronicle In an editorial reminds the American people that Great Britain's decision not to declare cotton contraband was a costly concession to America. Every one of the brave men who fulls by a German bullet or is blown to pieces by la German shell, the paper says, "is a victim ot American grown'cotton. We aro not complaianing but the point Is one Americans might fairly hear In minu when thoy hoar von Bernstorff and Dernburg declaiming about the inconsideratei.ess of British naval in- terference."

The Royal Mall steamer Protare also is seriously overdue and eight steamers, mainly in tho South American line, arc behind time and their fato unknown.

The Post declares: "While England meticulously separates contraband from non-contraband and lets the latter through Into Germany, tho enemy follows a policy of indiscriminate destruction. The best policy is to declare everything contraband that goes Into Germany over the Bea and stop everything." The paper further suggests that all merchantmen be fitted with quick- firing guns for use against a submarine directly it shows Its nose above tho water. Possible developments cause no unnatural uneasiness here. Tho shipping of the west coast is somewhat upset. The Dublin Steam Packet company announced tonight the temporary abandonment of all sailings with Belfast, Liverpool and Glasgow. One other company has also suspended its sailings, but the other schedules are being maintained as usual. The chief solace Great Britain finds In the German submarine attacks is that the craft thus used cannot take part In the regular naval operations. Ocean Trade Continues Freely LONDON, Feb. 1.—Perhaps the most striking commentary on the German submarine raid In thc North sea and English channel is afforted today in Sir Norman Hill's statement that the Liverpool and London War Risks Insurance association, in which almost all Liverpool lines are insured against war risks, has not thought it ncre* sary to exercise its power in prohibiting sailings of vessels. Most regular llne.8 are entering and leaving port freely and the trade of the Mersey is being fully maintained. Archibald Kurd, the Dally Telegraph's expert, argues that such commerce destruction is a confession of the weakness of German naval authorities who would not be wasting their time, he says, on sinking small British merchant ships if they could sink British ships of war. The writer also advances the proposition that by de s troy ing merchant shipping Germany is directly hitting herself as competition for the limited number of bottoms under neutral flags will thereby be Increased and the British have a longer purse and a larger credit. Germans Like New iPollcy. LONDON, Feb. 1.—The view that Germany has entered definitely upon a policy of destroying English maritime commerce hy the use of submarines is corroborated by German newspapers, which speak of the sinking of five British merchantmen during the last few days as a new course of action which it-Is hoped will produce striking results.

RULES 0 HEALTH EOR DYSPEPTICS Dieting Unnecessary. There,ure two ways by wihlch peo pie who suffer from indigestion, dys pepsia, sour stomach, flatulence, etc., can overcome the trouble. First, as practlcully all cases of the above are directly or Indirectly traceable to acidity and ferment.'-tlon, thoy car. eliminate from their diet all foods which ferment mid form acldi such as all starches and sugar amd foods containing them, thus prohibiting bread, potatoes, fruits and most moats. About tho only safe foods are gluteni breads, spinach and small quantities of white ment of chicken or turkey. This diet Is almost a starvation one but Is sometimes quite effective. The second way. which appeals especially to those who like to eat hearty meals of goodi foods, Is to eat whatever is reasonably digestible, neutralize the acid and Stop the fermentation 'by the use of a good antacid such us bisuratcd magnesia, a teaspoomfut of which In a Uttlo water immediately after eating or whenever pain is felt, Instantly neutralizes the acid, stops the fenir-onilutlori and permits tho stomach to dtf Its work without pain or hindrance. Owing to its simplicity, convenience and effectiveness this latter plan Is now being adopted, Instead of the old fashioned, o»pem»ive, woakenlng starvation process. In this connection/ it Is interesting to nolo that sine© the widespread use of blsuruted 'magnesia was established, many druggists htwe arranged rto supply it in 5 gr. tablets, 2 or 3 nf which are equivalent to a teaspoon- ful of tho powder form and are much moro convenient to carry.

It would be interesting to learn if the powers at Berlin consider the Harvard professor hns proved worth the money as a molder or public opinion in. the United Slates. COMPLETION OF PHONE LINES IMPORTANT ADVANCE. • Tlio completion of the new government telephone lines between 'Nelson and Waneta and Waneta. and Trail and from Midway to the Okanagan valley marks an improvement in the communications nf the Kootenay and Boundary district which h of great imporlanco: Por years the people of Nelson and those of the district to the south of tho city have sought some means of Tapld and easy intercommunication, Owing to the comparatively small number of settlers along part of tho route private enterprise could not. be induced to undertake the work. The Dominion, government was finally prevailed upon lo mako the necessary grant by Jt. F. Green, member in the federal houso or commons for Kootenay. At the same time Mr. Green secured a grant for the const ruction, of a line along ihe shores of Kootenay lak© from Pilot hay to Kootenay landing and for the laying of a cable from Proctor to Pilot bay. This work Is also nearlng completion. The interest which Mr, Green hns taken in pressing the telephone question upon the government at Ottawa will bo amply justified by the advantages which will accrue to the people of the districts served by the new lines. RECOGNIZES VALUE OF SPACE IN NEWSPAPERS. Tho Dominion government has again given recognition to advertising in the newspapers as tiie most efficient method of carrying out a campaign which depends for its success upon arousing the Interest of tlio public, by Us decision to purchase space In 800 newspapers iit Canada in order to forward tiie movement for a greater agricultural production. Tbo success of tho government's campaign to increase tho salo of Canadian apples undoubtedly liad much io do with the decision to employ tbe same method m attracting the attention of the farmers to ihe "patriotism and production" campaign. Well prepared copy, properly displayed In sufficient space and published until a market for the Canadian apple output had been assured were features or ihe apple advertising. Tbat campaign offers a lesson io the merchant and business man who has something to sell and wishes to Induce the public to buy it. Consistent advertising along the right lines will not fall lo bring results. The advertising must ibe properly carried out if it, is to bring tbo best returns for tho money invested. Advertising should be porslstont. II should not. cease when business temporarily becomes dull; rather should jt ho pushed with greater forco and moro determined efforts to attract the public. GERMAN PRESS METHODS ARE EXPOSED BY ATTACHE. Km it Wiiie, who was confidential "press attache" of the German embassy in Washington, and whose business it was to extend the German propaganda in tbe United Stales, said in a book published in Berlin iu 1911 that. Prof. Schonfleld of Columbia university exclaimed to him: They ought lo have given me ■ tbo post of Prof. Munsiorberg. He received ?5,O0O from Harvard and as nme.h from Berlin. I would not demand any more. Mr. Witte describes tbe press campaign which he carried on, ostensibly as a correspondent for a. German pa per, because It was thought, Hint he would get more closely into touch with the newspaper men 1f he kept secret his real position. Ono of tbe newspapers upon which he endenvored to impress the German view was the New York Sun and another was the Washington Star. The Sun was prevailed upon to cease its attacks on Von Holleben, the German ambassador, but Herr Willie's work did not prove permanent as that newspaper has been outspoken ia its expressions of disgust at the German violation of Belgian neutrality, In tho case of the Post the influenco has been more lasting, that Washington newspaper having been largely pro-German lo its views during this war, •' Other extracts from the book, which Tt is said tho Britisli troops nt the front are short of blankets. They are meeting tho situation by covering themselves with glory. If business should temporarily become dull do not make it, duller by refraining from asking tbe public for lis patronage. Poultry from a Beach Grove, Arrow lakes, farm hnd gold nuggets in their crops. Cheaper raid Ihan wheat, at present prices, tbe rancher probably thinks. Lethbridge farmers can secure $l.S»9i per bushel for 'wheat delivered at the depot. At such ppieo the pralrlo farmer secures profit which will mako him a good customer for the lumber, fruit and other produce of British Columbia. Germans have meekly acquiesced in regulations restricting the amount of fond tbey must eat, lhe kind of clothing Ibey may wear and the attitude thoy are io benr in public, but what will they say lo lhe coming increase In ihe price of beer? Germany If pressed for copper will melt up the monuments. She cannot dispose so easily of the monument to German infamy which sho erected in full view of the wholo civilized world by the rape of Belgium, Tbo Itediands Trading association, which has headquarters at Arrow Parle, proposes this year to extend its produce marketing operations nnd has mado preparations by setting aside an advertising fund. That is the right way lo go about the business of selling farm produce—or anything else. The proposal that tho Nelson board of trade should inaugurate a membership campaign at. Ihls timo Is opportune. If the strength of the organization is Increased it. will be tbe better ablo lo deal wiih tbe important questions which may be expected to nrise during 11)15. ■Pears which have been expressed as to the efficiency of Ihe Tlows rifle as a, weapon nf war do not seem to be shared by Russia, which has ordered rt.OOO.noO, nor by the British govern' ment, which jointly with Canada is taking ROO a day from this Canadian factory. Herr Dernburg tells an audience tbat. any, idea' of involving the United Slates in war wiih Great. Britain would bo "quite criminal and. every well- wisher of this country should be entirely foreign io that idea.'' Of course, but. aversion to committing crimes Is not a strong point with the government which Herr Dernburg represents, Talk or the sickness among tbe Canadian iroops at, Salisbury plains has resulted in much exaggeration. An investigation by Hon. Georgo H. Perley showed lhat Iho total sickness was -l.t per cent and much of this was of :l minor nature. Sir George declared that be bail never seen a huskier, beni'tler, heller built or more physically fit. army of fighting men. Copper in New York yesterday readied the highest price recorded sinco tho outbreak of war. This coincided with bolter conditions in tbe steel market nnd with the rapid absorption of a big railroad loan at a reasonable rate of interest. Kootenay nnd Boundary has especial reason for satisfaction, in tho upward movement of copper but tbe improvement in the stenl market, which is regarded as tbe "barometer of business,'' suggests the betterment which is taking place in Ihe commercial situation generally. <3> WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING. <S • Saving Clause.

C, Pel). 1.—Several hockey matches were pulled off last .week and record crowds were in attendance. Probably the most Interesting battle was between -the Dreadnoughts, under Admiral Joe Bird, and the Submarines, under Admiral Charley GUI. The spectators were treated to a spectacular display of wonderful maneuvers and fast fighting; and though the public had been duly warned of the danger, still they thought that the belligerents should ho told what they ought to do and so advice was freely, given, individually and collectively, before, during and after hostilities, which began about 8 p.m. Tuesday evening, when several periscopes were observed approaching •Bird's hase of supplies. The admiral quickly rallied his fleet nnd was apparently driving the plungers back when suddenly one of the submarines emerged close to his goal. Tie at once signaled tho dreadnought Schmidt.

In the second period the submarines again successfully bombarded the enemy for three goals, although it appeared to the spectators that two of these were due to the flagship of the dreadnoughts shelling its own position, through mistake, owing to the smoke produced during the fierce heat of the battle. However, In the last period the dreadnoughts, resorted to tactics not recognized hy international warfare agreements, with the result that the submarines Gill and J.

ELGIN, 111, Feb. 1.—An order dissolving tho injunction Issued to restrain tho slaughter of cattle afflicted instead with the foot and mouth disease wae, Bethor. filed today by Judge Irwin tn the-Kane I AId* Giuliugher county circuit court. "f do this us a matter of public policy," tho judge said. "The situation! in the foot and mouth epidemic has become alarming. Both state and federal authorities declared their hands wero tied by tlio injunction and have done nothing to eradicato tho plague. "They have imposed a quarantine upon the counties affocted by the injunction as a result of which our farmers found themselves facing financial ruin. "I do not admit that tiie injunction was not right. It was and is in my' opinion. But the question has.now assumed such a serious aspect that I doubt whether the 'public interest will best be served with the- injunction In forco." Wants Another Man and More Alarm Boxet—City Engineer's Dismissal )■ Discussed. That the fire which recently gutted Trinity* Methodist church justified his reports to tiie effect that aa additional man was required by tbo fire department and that fire alarm boxes should be maintained at more frequent intervals throughout tho city were the contentions of Donald Guthrie, chief of tho fire brigade, in his monthly report to tho -city council at the meeting of that 'body last night. The chief recommended that tho city should pay full salary during his convalescence, to Jotin Bnllaiitync, tho fireman who was severely injured in the church ■blaze and his expenses at the hospital. The chief also paid a tribute to Assistant Chief Frank Boyd for his cool- headed work in rescuing Ballantyne from.the burning building. Slow notification of tho firo brigade was given by the chief as the chief reason for the large loss at.tho church fire. Tlio first notification which the brigade had of tho blaze was from a boy who stated that he thought there was a firo at tho Methodist church. Jn the opinion of the c-hiafc the fire originated over the furnace room from overheated pipes or from a radiator. Ho also stated in his report that if the council expected both pieces of fire apparatus to respond to all calls' they should furnish the brigade with an additional man. During January the firo .brigade- had responded to five alarms. Two of tho calls were to chimney fires, one false alarm, one in thc boiler room of Johnson's nursery, Whoro slight dam ago was done, and tlio othor at Trinity Methodist church. The average water pressure for tlio month had been 155 lbs. Tlio Injuries to Fireman Ballantyne brought from vA*d. A. S. Horswlll, who, in tho atbsence of Mayor Malone, occupied the chair aa inquiry as to whether- or not accident policies were carried by tho city for tho firemen, He was assured by the chief that policies wero in force which provided ?10 a week for total disability and $2000 in caso of death, Tho report was referred lo the fire, water and light committee for Its consideration. On tho recommendation of tho finance commltteo E. W. Wlddowson was granted five months option to leaso tho old power site' on Cottonwood creek as a site for a reduction works with the provision that the pro, posed new industry must be in operation within a year and that the ipower used must bo used only In connection With the carrying on of the proposed now industry. Tho rental for tho site was placed at $5 per month for the first year and in thc following years it is to bo fixed by the mayor and council and in no case shall more than $r»0 per .month for the second year, $75 per month for the third year, $100 per month for tho fourth year and $125 per month for the fifth year. Tho mayor and city clerk were authorized to executo a lease of certain piling ground on the rlgnt of way of tho Canadian Pacific railway which is used for piling telephone poles for tho city with the local officials of the company at a rental of $1 per month. Tho matter of tho suspension by Mayor Malono of G. C. Mackay, city engineer, on grounds of economy and owing to tho lack of work In the public works department was brought up but left In abeyance until tho return of the mayor. During tho discussion Aid. P. J. Gal lagher, chairman of the board of works stated that fio did not believe the department should be abolished altogether. Ho believed tho flro department was sadly In need of a plan of the city's water works system and ho pointed out other office work that the city engineer might well spend his •/lino upon. Aid. I. A. Austin concurred. He thought thoro should bo same head of the dopartment. Ho believed It would havo been better economy If the mayor had reduced tho engineer's salary along with a lot of other civic officials of cutting off his head alto Gem Theatre THE QUALITY PHOTOPLAY s HOUSE Latidtster The Great.

By clever combination on tho part of Keating, Griffith und Lynnv tho puck was kept within shooting distance of the Star goal for the .greater part of the gamo and had it not been for the clever work of Ernest Johnson, ai* embryo Star tiinbcrman who was lui goal, tho scoro would have boon much larger.
