Many curious things have been done
by absent minded or thoughtlcss per.
sons since the world began. but Il was
only recently that man hitched his
horse 10 a tnin Of freight ears which
had stopped momcntarlly during tho
process known as making up trains. A"
The author Of this new idcn Of hitcling
had gone TO East Buffalo TO draw u
load Of tow. Arrived. hc looked for n
hltching post or n stationary object Of
fonc kind which would answer the pur.
pose, but seeing none noticed the mo-
tionlcs- freight ears near by, and with.
out further ado tied his rig thereto.
He had gone hut short distance
when the ears started up and took tho
rig along with them. Their speed was
not rsoat, however, and after little
stroll with the train the horse was loos.
cned and taken back to is driver. -

LONDON. Aug. 1.-THE st. Petersburg
agent of Reuters Telegraph Company has
been furnished with an inspired denial OK
the report that secret treaty has been
concluded between France and Russia. In
the statement it is denied that either Adj
miral Gervais or any other French or Rus
sian representative has signed or concluded
verbally any convention between France
and Russia 1t is also asserted from the
same source that no conferences have been
held on the subject, and that the WELL
known rapprochement between France
and Russia does not date from the present
time, but. it is added, it was occasioned
long ago by international circumstances
rather than a spontaneous desire OF
the powers themselves, and that
it has since continued to grow.
In closing, the statement says
the visit of the French fieet
to Cronstadt, and the enthusiastic rccep-
tion of the Frenchmen only served to sol-
emnly confirm the good entente previously
existing. This inspired official denial also
asserts that the visit of the French fleet
had the effect of ripening the entente to
such point that it can be converted into
an alliance should the conduct of the ene-
mics of France and Russia render
a formal treaty necessary. 1t is
stated in conclusion that an alli-
ance has not yet been concluded,
nor is it in preparation, either in Paris or
st. Petersburg. Such proceedings, it is ex.
planned would be superluous and might
endanger the peace of Europe. Whethea
the friendly relations existing between
France and Russia shall retain the present
status or resolve into a stronger and moro
formal agreement, depends entirely upon
the governments forming the dreibund.

THE WORLDS FAIR,
Trouble About Machinery Settled-The
Missionaries in Europe.

CHICAGO, Aug. 17.-The board of control
of the national worlds fair commission
passed resolutions today looking to the
termination OF the little sguabble between
department chiefs and Chief Com
structor Burnham about the
installation of the engines.
Burnham can now go ahead and place the
power he arranged for, and the directory
saves 81 900 900, which would be necessary
to buy the required propelling machinery.
Burnham's plan was, instead of using up
the large sum of money, to have the exhib-
itOrs furnish the necessary machinery for
light, heat and power, this machinery to
be installed and classified as part of the
owners competitive exhibit, subject to the
regulations of the national commission.
The matter of installation will be settled
between Burnham and the chiefs of the
electricity and machinery departments.

News Is Mighty Scarce in Portland.

PORTLAND, Aug. T.-[Special. Reports
have been reaching Portland since O'Clock
this afternoon that Mount Hood is in a
sate of eruption. Smoke could be seen
issuing from the mountain even at this
distance, and it is generally believed that
the hoary old monarch of the Cascades is
awakening from sleep of centuries. The
Indians have traditions that go to show
that the mountain was once in state of
activity The crater itself is evidence of
this. Several distinct earthquake shocks
were also heard about O'Clock, and many
of the citizens feel considerably alarmed.
Mount Hood is only fifty-two miles from
Portland in a straight line.
