Russeli, aged 67 years, oldtime resident of Juneau, was taken suddenly ill and died at Chichagef last Saturday accord- ing to radio advices received by ‘William Burnett. The body of Rus- sell is aboard the Estabeth being shipped to Juneau. James B. Russell came to Juneau about 30 years ago and for a time operated luncheon counters. For many recent years he was prepieter of Russell's Gun Store on Lower Front street. Last sum: mer he was engaged in house painting, residing on Eleventh street where he owns property. Mr. Russell left for Chichagof on September 10 for a visit with oldtime friends. Apparently he was in the best of health when he left on his pleasure trip. As far as known there are no surviving re- latives. Mr. Russell's gasboat, the Mazepta, is one of the well known craft on Gastineau Channel. Mr. Russell came from a promi- nent family in the Middle West. His father, known as Major Rus- sell, was one of the three men who established the first pony express from West Port Landing, now Kansas City ,to Santa Fee. The Juneau pioneer is believed to have been born in Montana.

Law of Militzy Strategy One of the principal laws of mil- itary strategy is t» invade the enemy’s territory, striking as many blows as possible before withdraw- ing, or proceeding towards a new objective. Aviators, being for the most part under military discipline, have adopted many military meth- ods in dealing with criminals, es- pecially along the border.

A smashing cattle stampede and a race with death along a yawning driving a twenty-mule team like ma dare part of this thrilling story. Story Deals With Feud The story of “ The Painted Des- ert” deals with a 20-year-old feud of the two old pioneersthat had its start on the desert when they found Boyd as an infant deserted lin a covered wagon.

They are shrewd negotiators, and they ‘take advant- age of the French peasant's desire to hold tight to what is his. They thus win support from left wing conservatives and from a large group which used to vote for Briand’s schemes, but with their tongues in their cheeks. ‘To the polished Francois-Poncet, now ambassador to Berlin, is cred- ited the major conception of the business scheme to approach to Germany. . M. Francois-Poncet said to him- self that if efforts to bring peace by political cooperaton ‘had failed, theéh perhaps the business men could do something. No one here, except the “extreme rights” who believe that a dispo- sition to war is an essential part of German character, denles the possibility of some good at least coming from the plan. —_—————— Ohio, with 39,582 surfaced miles of local road, ranks second in the United States.
