the Turkish and American ships, took
part in battle of flowers last night. The
boats were formed in procession, which

flowers.
The Emperor entertained at luncheon

British yachtsmen who are here to attend
the races of the Kiel Regatta.
The Kaiser has given his assent to the
request of Captain Evans, of the United
States cruiser New York, that he be per-

The Nepthina is we'll known to all the
members of the Southern Yacht Club.
The boat left few weeks ago for an ex-

the owners, Messrs. Agar and Dudley,
with a small party recruited from the
membership of the Cotton Exchange.
The object of the trip was pleasure,

NIr. Shaw-Lefevre Introduces Bill to
Further Their Introduction in England
London, June 2S-The impression Gre
ated here by the race for horseless car
riages has resulted in the government
taking remarkably prompt measuers to
remove anything that might act as an
obstacle to the innovation reaching to
this country. Strange as it may seem,
at the present moment horseless car
riages could not be utilized here unless
they went at pace not exceeding four
miles an hour and were preceded by. a
man bearing red flag.
In the House of Commons last night.
however, Mr.. Shaw-Lefevre asked leave
to introduce bill to amend the law in
respect to the use of locomotives on high
ways. The bill, he said, was brief, con-
sisting of one clause only, and its object
was to exempt from the regulations
imposed by the existing law carriages
propelled by other means than horse on
highways.
In France, Mr.. Shaw-Lefevre went on
to say, there were already running upon
ordinary roads a considerable number
OF light carriages, some propelled by
petroleum, others by gas, few by steam,
and yet others by electricity. There
were about 5000 of these now run in
Paris, and recent competition had TAX
en- place in which number of these We
hicles had gone from Paris to Bordeaux
and back, the winning carriage which
was propelled by petroleum, having made
the journey at an average speed of Is
miles an hour. The use Of such car
riages in this country was, however.
practically forbidden under the locomo-
tives act. Locomotives had to be in
charge OF three persons. one of whom had
to go on in front with flag to protect
and warn those engaged in carrying on
ordinary yehicular traffic. Beyond this,
speed than four miles an hour in the
country and two miles an hour in towns.
Under these circumstances it appeared
only reasonable that such a measure as
he asked leave to introduce should be
passed, and he should add that it was
thought if these vehicles should be sub
lect to special regulations thhose regu-
lations should be made by central and
not by county or local authority.
On MIR. Shaw-Lefevre resuming his seat,
Mr.. Jeffreys asked whether horseless car
rlages were to be subject to the same
licenses as locomotives under the exist
ing act. Mr.. Shaw -Lefevre replied that
it was proposed to subject them to the
same licenses as ordinary carriage.
Sir NJ SteWart-What is the weight to
be allowed
Mr.. Shawl -Lefevre-Th limit has been
put at two tons. Leave was then unani-
mously given by the House and the bill
was read a first time.

TROUBLE AT MAKUNG.
All Approaches to the Foreign Quarter
Barricaded.

London, June 2s-The Times publish
es dispatch from Hong Kong stating
that the Japanese are assembling war
ships and making preparations to at
tack the Black Flags at Makung
The Chinese general has repeatedly de-
manded the withdrawal of the British
force that was landed at that place. At
one time he had guns trained on the
foreign settlement, but the British war
ships Spartan, Rainbow, Plover, Red
breast and Pigmy clared for action, raised
steam and threatened to retaliate if a
shot was fired. The Chinese commander
then countermanded his order
The British force is billeted on the for

SIGNAL TRIUMPHS WON

Two signal triumphs have been ach-
ieved by DR.. Prices Cream Baking Pow
der, First it received Highest Award
and Diploma at the Worlds Columbian
Exposition OF 1894. At both fairs it
surpassed all competitors in every re-
spect. The award, in each instance,
was for strongest leaving power, perfect
purity ana general excellence. 1t was
sustained by the unanimous vote of the
judges.
The victory at Chicago established
the supremacy of DR.. Prices as "The
Foremost Baking Powder in the World"
The triumph at San Francisco confirms
and emphasizes it.

KEYSTONE, S. D.. Sept. %, 1895.
Early on Saturday morning the III
was falling rapidly but before noon the
snow took precedence and by nightfall
the ground was white and to the depth
OF about three inches. This time the
beautiful seemed to delight everyone as
1T was SO much more preferable to large
clouds Of dust which we were obliged to
endure previous to the storm. Our
camp is fast improving, our two quartz
mills are running to their full capacity.
Many OF the yeomanry OF the country
are to be seen in the camp vending their
products which all tends to make Key
stone IN a good healthy condition.
We have lately visited several OF our
best mining camps and mines in these
parts, and the following are among
these which came under our personal
observation. The Denver which is the
first mine we arrived at is situated in
what is known by the old settlers of this
country as the DR.. Hope Valley. This
valley is about two miles north of Key
stone and on the direct road to the
Tepee mines. The Denver is said to be
8 very good piece of property and we
believe owned by parties living in Rapid
City. The mine looks well and bids fair
to soon become one Of our best
producers as it assays remarkably we'll
and shows a large amount of free milling
ore. Our next was the Flying Dutchman
this mine Is situated to the west OF the
Denver a short distance and is classed
among our best. 1t is a new find and as
the ore body is of such a rich character
there is no time lost in bringing it to the
surface. 1t is owned by Mr.. Alex Irvine
and others who say that it will soon
equal the Holy Terror.
The next in our pathway were the
series OF mines owned by George CASTER
and others Of Hill City. These proper
ties are considered good. but as there
has been but little work done on them
shall confine my remarks relative to
these mines until further developments.
A short distance ahead and to our left
we came to d mine and shaft owned by
Mike King, here we saw a number of
good looking pieces of quartz around
the mine, but as the owner was absent
at that moment we passed on to the
Dixie mine. Here we had a good oppor-
tunity OF q rest as well as to examine
the workings OF this noted mine. After
scrutinizlng the blacksmith shop and
tools we walked into the mine, after
making a close observation Of the ledge
we took the pick and broke off a piece
weighing about four ounces, pounded it
fine, slfted it, then washed it out and
found about a hundred colors. There
has bSen considerable work done on
this mine and we predict big outcome
Tor tins property in the near future:
Within a short distance we arrived at
the Big Dyke or Iowa No. 2. This mine
is situated SO high up in the rocks and
such a difficult matter TIC. reach it's work
ings that we passed on with but little
examination, but the ledge is said to be
rich with free milling ore in large guam
titles. Our next stopping place was the
