President Wilsons note to the German chancellor, which was transmitted to Berlin, Ocjtober 8, is as follows : Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge, on behalf of the president, your note of October 6, inclosing the communication from the German government to the president; and I am instructed by the president to request you to make the following communication to the imperial German chancellor : Before making reply, to the request of the imperial German government and in order that that reply shall be candid and straightforward, .. as the momentous interests involved require, the president of the United States deems it necessary to assure himself of the exact meaning of the note of the imperial chancellor. Does the imperial chancellor mean that the imperial German government accepts thfe terms laid down by the president in his address to the congress of the United States on the 8th of January last, and in subsequent addresses and that its object in entering into discussions would be only to agree upon the practical details of their application?. The president feels bound to say with regard to the suggestion of an armistice that he would not feel- at liberty to propose a cessation of arms to the governments with which the government of the United States iw associated against the central powers so long as the armies of those powers are upon their soil. The good faith of any discussion would manifestly depend upon the consent of the central powers immediately to withdraw their forces everywhere from invaded territory. The president also feels that he Is justified in asking whether the imperial chancellor is speaking merely for the constituted authorities of the empire who have so far conducted the war. He deems the answer to these questions vital from every point of view. WASHINGTON.

Though reports received by the state board of health indicate a spread of Spanish influenza throughout the state of Utah, no occasion for hysteria exists, according to statements made by Dr. T. D. Beatty, state health commissioner. Twelve hundred cases have now been reported in Utah. The meanest person in Utah and who should be with the Huns is the thief who burglarized the Ited Cross storehouse in Silver City and stole a lot of clothing which had been collected for the Belgians. There is no clue to the unpatriotic thief. A quarantine against the city of Seattle for soldiers in Camp Lewis, was ordered Thursday. The order was issued at the request of Seattle city authorities to prevent soldiers contracting influenza, which is prevalent to military In Seattle, according authorities. A saving of $800,000 has been effected to apple growers in Oregon, Washington and Idaho this year, according to F. J. Miller, chairman of the Oregon Public service commission, who telegraphed from Washington that the railroad administration has granted a reduction from $1.25 to $1.10 per 100 pounds in the transcontinental freight rate for apples. The first cases of Spanish influenza noted in Nevada were reported to health officers at Reno, Tuesday, four persons being found infected with the disease within a few hours. Sentence of two years in McNeils Island federal penitentiary and a fine of $300 for the acceptance of q bribe, was imposed on James A.

' WINTER All Whites Cold Doubtless It will surprise a great many persons to learn that Mandalay, famed of song and story, is little more than a half century old. It was built in 1856 by King Mindon, who made it the capital of what was then independent Burmah. Something more than 300 feet above the level of the sea, Mandalay sits tightly upon a stretch of tableland just In front of the Shan hills. The city proper extends over about five square miles, but the military district of Mandalay covers a more extensive area. With the British soldier, Mandalay has taken on a great deal of the character of a vacation resort. In the torrid months of the Burmese summer the heat becomes very great, sometimes making the thermometer rise to 119 degrees in the shade ; but relief is easily found In the adjacent hills. The British sanitary officers have succeeded in exterminating all the fevers and which' the climate other diseases with was once infested. In winter or as near to winter as it gets Mandalay becomes a semiparadise, for the temperature stays at about 50 degrees. Happy the British soldier who is assigned to this garrison. Like as not he sits of afternoons the shadow of the Moulmien ipagoda gazing dreamily at the flotillas ;on the Irrawaddy. Cant you hear their paddles chunkin' from Rangoon to Mandalay? Or perhaps he looks at the distant mountains, fabled to be so rich In and rubles. And very often the whole picture as drawn by Kipling is bells and iComplete, even to the temple the Burmese maiden.
