A woman's Pluck.

Let us consider in what the physical
courage of woman has hitherto most diff
fered from that OF man, for the difference
is one not only Of degree, bit quality. and
the result partly of physiological condi-
tions, partly of the influence Of heredity
and partly Of the necessities Of her social
life and the education which is habitually
assigned to her, all Of which must affect
the future as well as the past. Broadly

SEA AND SAIL.
ENGLISHMEN TALK OF THE COM
ING GREAT RACE.
But at the Same Time Are a Lit
tie Afraid of Defender.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-A special to
the Herald from London says:
The view has been expressed at the
meeting of the Royal Athletic Squad
ron that the failure of England to Sc
cure the cup would not be a serious
national misfortune.
Il will almost go further" said one
well-known man of the squadron, "and
say that in some ways the total disap-
pearance of the cup would be a bless
ing. It's existence is the cause of the
withdrawal of the best boat of the
year from the English races and if ii
were to be won by us the same yearly
loss of their crack yacht would be ex-
perienced by Americans"
However. this view is not generally
held. and most experts, both in and
out of the royal squadron, seem never
tired of discussing Valkyrie's chances
next month.
Said Lord Dunraven: I'm the first
place. from all I can hear, the owners
of the Defender seem well saticfieA
with their snip, and in the second place
7 fail to see how Mr.. LeweS Nixon can
have formed a reliable opinion of the
capabilities of the VallSyrie, as he is
reported to have expressed. Frankly
speaking, know next to nothing my

Millions of Feet of VaIabIe Timber

Railways Blocked BY Failing
Trees-Heroic Efforts of Men Who
Rode Through the Flames.

OLYMPIA, Wash, Aug. 1O.-Only
meagre details have been received
from the burning district west and
south of here The wires went down
yesterday and the only method of COM
munication is by messenger. The city
is covered with dense smoke and a
shower of fine ashes is falling contin-
ually Thus far two deaths have been
reported. Lars Peterson and Thomas
White were riding on a logging train
near Shelton when the train went
through burning trestle. The en-
gineer and fireman escaped, but Peter
son and White were burned in the
wreck.
Simpsons logging camp was burned
completely and the heavy draught
horses were saved only by the heroic
efforts of the men who rode them
through the flames. The men saved
their clothing and personal property
by digging trenches. All logging rail-
roads are blocked by falling timbers.
Heavy winds have famed the fire
through the dry timber till the roaring
of the flames is heard miles away and
the quick successive falling of the
giant trees resembles the noise of bat
tie.
At Summit, fifteen miles west of
here, several ranches have been de-
stroyed and fear is expressed for the
safety of some settlers whose escape
by the road is cut off. Millions of feet
of valuable timber have been lost

LOCKPORT BURNED OUT.
LOSS WILL REACH TWO HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Town Had No Fire Protection Save
That Afforded By Some Cru'.e
Apparatus and Buckets and coats

LOCKPORT, Ill, Aug. 1O.-Ine pusl-
ness portion of this place was COM
pleteIy destroyed by fire this afternoon
entailing a loss of 100000, OF which
amount one-half or two-thirds is COW
cred by insurance.
The fire started in the roof OF
building owned by j. S. Mcdonald
where some timers at work upset d
small gasoline stove and set portion
of the roof on fire. They endeayored TO
put out the flames with blankets and
coats. but it was too much for them
and in few minutes they were glad
to let the fire alone ana rdn for their
lives.
The town has no fire protection eX-
cept some crude hand apparatus ana
in a short time after its start the
flames, famed by strong north wind,
were sweeping along Ninth, Hamilton,
and States streets and taking every
thing in their path. Aid was asked
from Lamont, Joliet and Chicago. Two
engine companies were sent from the
latter place, one from Joliet and one
from Lemont. The fire had eaten up
most of the business portion or the
town when the engines from Chicago
arrived and was subsiding. 1t was
eXtinguished without much trouble
within an hour after the Chicago en-
gineS arrived.

EIGHT JURORS NOW.
BELIEVED THAT THE BOX WILL
SOON BE FILLED.
Great Deal Centers in What Action
Judge Murphy VIII Take as to
Juror Brown.

SAN FRANCISCO. aug. 10.-NIonday
will be the beginning of the fourth week
of the trial of Durrant for the murder of
Blanche Lamont. and the only progress
made has been the selection of nine jury
men to try the case.
A great deal of interest centers in what
action Judge Murphy will take as to
Juror Brown. 1t is generally believed
he will allow the challenge of the dis
trict attorney, and relieve Brown of jury
duty on the ground That the district at
torney did not know of Browns eXper-
fence in the United States district court
in the Howell counterfeidng case. 1t is
believed the jury box will be filled mex:
week even should the retirement of
Brown make the selection of four more
talesmen necessary. With only four to
select from the 200 veniremen summoned
for Monday the prospect is good for COM
mencing the actual trial on the first of
the week.
1t is said that Durrant's hope lies in
convincing the jury of his Innocence, and
not in an appeal on technical points
Should one be necessary. The prospects
are that the case will be complicated, but
Judge Murphy'S ruling III criminal cases
usually bear the scrutiny of an appellate
court.
The sheriff fears that some attempt may
he made to harm Durrant. This is not
dine 10 public sentiment. but to the fear
that some crank may desire to win motor
iety by assailing such a prominent pris-
oner Every precaution is taken to pre-
vent any assault.

have not been able to test the boat i'll
any way. Therefore, [ shall know
nothing definite as to her value as a
racer until she sails against the De-
fender. What L should have liked
would have been an opportunity of
testing her in private matches against
the Britannia and Ailsa, but unfor-
tunately L had no opportunity Of doing
this.
Meanwhile I think it next door to
waste of time to try to reach any
definite conclusion as to the respective
merits of the boats"
The Earl of Lonsdale, on the sub
ject of Defender and Valkyrie. said: Il
fail to believe that Mr.. NiXon's opinion
is shared by those who have the best
reason to judge Of the merits of the
Defender, and in fact Mr. Iselin and
others do not agree with him. 1 GER
tainly think from what l have read of
her performances that we have got in
her a dangerous competition.
AS regarding the Valkyrie. no one
here knowns anything about her mer-
its as racer but Lord Dunraven, and
he expressed himself as perfectly sat
isf1ed. I feel sure that we are going to
have a series of good races, even if the
cup still remains on the old side"

ATTACKED BY REDS.
RANCHER KILLED AND HIS PLACE
LOOTED.
Red Devils Filling the Country With

Destroyed S7,OOO,OO0 Worth of
Property.

TUCSON, Ariz, Aug. 10.-Word was
received here today that at sunrise on
the 4th inst. a gang Of nearly 100
Yaaui Indians attacked the Santa
Rosa hacienda of Don Juan de Bojor-
quez about thirty miles east of Guaya-
mas. Mexico They killed him and
robbed the place of everything avail
able. A few days previous another
band surprised a troop of federal SOL
diers and killed six and Captain Lopez
who was in command. For ten years
these same Indians have been men
ace to the peace of Sonora and de-
mand will be made on the government
to suppress their depredations-
Besides filing the country with
widows and orphans they have des-
troyed property aggregating in value
81. 900 900. The killing of Bojorquez has
created widespread sorrow. He was
one of the few who survived the fan
gerous incident upon the fateful 18th
of July. 1854, but he was badly wounded
in the engagement. He was connected
by blood and marriage to the most
prominent families in Sonora.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10.-Asso-
ciate Justice stephen ]. Field in speak
ing of the successor of the late Justice
Jackson of the supreme court OF the
United States said: "Of the four gen
tIemen spoken of, Postmaster General
Wilson, Senator Lindsay, OF Kentucky,
Don NJ Dickinson, of Michigan, ana
Secretary Cariisle-it is very difficult
for me to select the one who will re-
ceive the appointment. If Carlisle &C
cepts he will have to give up his pres
idential ASPIRATIONS, and of the other
three LINDSAY is far the more ethclenJ
iurist. although all of them are capa-
BILE men and would be a credit to the
United tSates and themselves. Don Nj.
Dickinson is a warm personal friend
of the president and so is Wilson.
Therefore, under the present circum-
stances it would be a difficult matter
to name the man. Any one would be
good. but l would not be surprised to
see either Dickinson or Lindsay re-
ceive the appointment. although L
would not care to venture that as any
thing other than mere personal
opinion"
when will the appointment take

Some time before the second Mon
day in October and there may be a
special session called to confirm the
presidents nomination as a justice
would not care to sit in the supreme
court of the United States unless his
nomination was confirmed. Besides
there are great many important

NEz pERCES MONEY.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1O-Special pre-
cautions have been taken to prevent any
trouble at the Nez Perces reservation in
the indians s tbere Of the the sSGS oG5 enSroo
priated for them by the last Congress.
Usually when it is known that a sum of
money is to be paid to Indians, a crowd
gathers around the reservation, whose
purpose it is to rob and swindIe the In
dams. For this reason a troop of cav
airy has been ordered to camp at the
reservation during the payment and pre-
serve order. The commissioner of Indian
affairs has also instructed the agent not
to pay out any of the funds until the
troops have arrived. The checks for the
will not reach the reservation for sew
eral days. The Indians will be amply
protected until they have cashed their
checks and deposited the money in banks.

LONDON, Aug. 10.-Rev. George G.
Lorrimer, D. D., of Boston, pastor of
fremont Temple, who is now in this
city on a vacation, was invited to
lunch with Mr.. Gladstone. He had a
couple hours conversation with Mr.
Gladstone on the Armenian question,
Mr.. Gladstone laying the greatest
weight upon the cooperation of the
United States in the matter. Mr.
Gladstone said:
i am DESTROYS to have America
specially interested in the work of
Armenian reform. America occupies
SO Independent a position, and is so
far removed from the seat Of European
politics, its public opinions will have
great influence in the east"
The correspondence between Turk,
Khahil Khalid. of Angora, Asiatic
Turkey, and Mr.. Gladstone on Ar
menia, was published today. The
former accused Mr.. Gladstone of utter
ing statements based on hearsay evil
dence alone which the Turk claimed
is getting the eastern people at enmity
with each other, causing much blood
shed, raising political disputes and
withholding from the Turks liberty
and progress.
Mr.. Gladstone replied to the Turk,
saying:
Il make no charge against the Turks
at large, but against the Turkish gov
eminent, and 1 make charges of which
they have been proved guilty by public
authority. In my opinion 1 have been
a far better friend of the Ottoman en-
pire than the sultan and his advisors.
I have always recommended the grant
ing Of reasonable powers in local self
government, which would have saved
it from horrible losses. This good ad-
vice was spurned, and in consequence
Turkey lost IS, 100000 of people and may
lose more. Pray weigh these words"
