Like all the others who have pre- oeded him, he went to death calmly and did not say a word in the death chamber. The only appearance of fright or weak ness was the fact that he closed his eyes when he entered and did not open them again.
 Two contacts were made, but all the physicians and electricians claim that the second contact was merely precautionary, and that the victim died instantly. There were no burns and no unpleasant features,

 Whole Country Looks Like War.
 TACOMA, July 1. - Tho Norwegian steamer Oscar II, which arrived here, Is days from Vladivostok. Siberia brings news that the indications are good for an- other oriental war. Unknown Co tho out side world, Captain Sanderson of the steamer says that Russia has massed 80, 900 mon ut vlsdivostok, and it is boz flowed in Siborla that the preparations arc being made for m advance on Japan.

 Russia has been secretly but livoly aA work, and in tho evcnt of trouble with Japan Is preparing to hurl n formidable naval and land foroo into the coveted tcrri- tory which Japan has wrosted from Chi m. These ships and troops have boon massod at Vladivostok. Tho entrance to the harbor nt vladivostok is planted full of torpodocs, and no vessel is allowed to pass in or out without Russian naval ofii- COTS on board, as woll as experienced Rus sian pilote, who know whero the torpe- decs are planted. My vessel was escorted In this manner both coming and going out of the harbor.
 Inside the harbor tho entiro Paoiflo fleet of Russian warships is masscd ready to steam down the ooast on msmont's notice. On the shore So, 900 troops kavo been concentrated, and the evidence is clear that Russia Is prepared for trouble in case the Japanese give any occasion for it."
 Troops Ma.sed In Secret
 The massinR of the ships and troops at vladivostok has been secretly dono by Russia, unusual precautions having been taken to prevent tho spread of any intellis pcnce regarding the actual force sbo has qunrtorcd there. Russia's roal designs cannot, of course, bo told, but 1t is ofbar that If she builds n railway line south from Nladivostok to the Yellow seq hor intention is to obtain an opon port and hold it at all hazards. -.
 Tho wholo country looks like war, and tho situation is considerably strained, but tho peace olomcnt Is hoping that tho ten sion may be relieved and matters sottlcd without n resort to arms.
 It was intimntcd to Captain Sandcrwon before he left that tho government would bo pleased If he did not tako pains tc spread his knowledge of tho operations ai vladivostok, but he did not hesitate much when asked to tell what ho know, he thinks tho world Is entitled to know ths | facts

Bishop Doane on the Liquor Question.

Chicago, Nov. 4-Temperance people
were surprised when shown an extract
from an address on the liquor question
delivered Tuesday night in Albany y. Y.
10y Bishop VIM Croswell Doane, of the
Episcopal church. They said il was the
first time any church dignitary had ex-
pressed himself in such language. The
bishops views viii be discussed more or
less by several of the Chicago temperance
societies Harry +. Stevens. district sec
retary of the Independent order of Good
Tenplars said: Bishop Doane's ideas
are wholly at variance with the prind-
ples OF the Good Templars. We don't be-
lieve in the sale of any intoxicating IL
quors. except for medicinal purposes. 1t
seems to me that, under such state OF
affairs as the bishop would Ike TO see.
the LIQUOR traffic would run riot and there
would be no check / shall see that Bish-
on Doane's utterances are discussed at
the next meeting OF the Good Templars.
r n. Conpropst. presiding officer of the
grand division Of Illinois. Sons Of Temper
ance. said. Bishop Doane's words sur
prise me. for have never heard anything
ike that come from any minister There
is one inconsistency in his remarks. he
wants beer and spirits recognized as ar
tlcles Of commerce, just as we recognize
bread and beef, and he wants all re-
strafnt removed from its manufacture
and sale. Yet ne SAYS the sale Of liquor
should not be allowed in the vicinity OF
schools and churches. That clearly Is an
Inconsistency"

interview with the secretary OF state for

ton In Europe. Mr.. Chamberlain prom

OF the deputatlon. but pointed out that in
